We love it when one of our staff members gets an album made for themselves. We spend most of our time creating handmade products for photographers, but we like to walk the talk when it comes to printing our photos. Maddy works in the Queensberry bindery and she's let us share her Portrait Album with you. Take a look.

"I made my own scrapbook style photo albums when I was younger and printed photos to frame. This is the second Queensberry album I've made. 

"I wanted to make a gift for my partner, Simba, to celebrate the adventures we’ve had together so far, including a photo of us right before we met. It was a decent effort to trudge along with the tripod, set it up, and take multiple self-timer photos of us together with our favourite views."

"I appreciate how patient he is with my adventuring and after all that effort, I think making an album was necessary. I had to include one that was a fail just to laugh at ourselves. I also included photos of our families and friends as they are so important to us.

"I loved the album and the design so much. I usually like to have control of my photos so I was very interested to see how someone else would arrange them. I was very impressed and felt that the design enhanced the story that was being told."

"Photography has been a hobby of mine since I was in high school where I learned to process film in a darkroom. Since then, high school has progressed slowly into a casual freelance business. I absolutely love photographing pets and people in beautiful locations.

"Printing photos is something I value, although I wish I valued it more. I think the use of smartphones and computers makes it far too easy to instantly consume multiple images without a thought. Printing photos requires you to stop, take a moment and truly look at the image with greater appreciation."
