Newborn Photographers love PrimaBook

PrimaBook with PrimaBox

If you’re a family or newborn photographer who’s been looking for a great & affordable album that you can offer to your clients, look no further - QTAlbums’ PrimaBook is an excellent choice! Our Blue Poppy & Magnolia cover colours are be perfect for Baby Albums - light blue & pink.

You can complete your PrimaBook order with a matching wood & fabric box. The set is available in three sizes - 8x8”, 10x10” or 12x12”. On top of that, you can add a stamp like “Little Cutie”, “Love” or an adorable little heart symbol - just perfect!

PrimaBook comes in 10 colours, and the fabric is called Flores - it’s very smooth and soft to touch. We hope our little gallery will ignite a spark and that you will order a sample to show your clients (discounted samples are available Jan-Oct).

Best Print Products for Newborn & Family Photography

What do a few months of isolation do to people? A lot more family time for sure. If we’re lucky, one good thing that might come out of the coronavirus lockdown is a Baby Boom.

Are you ready for more family and newborn sessions?


PRIMABOOK

The PrimaBook is a book that can be a perfect solution for a family or newborn photography. Our Magnolia & Bluebell colours would be great for newborn albums, and of course, you can stamp it with a cute little golden heart.

If you are a family photographer, then adding an album to a photo session is a must! What good are family pictures if they are left sitting on a computer or thumb drive? The super affordable PrimaBook is what you need to have a happy client. And we have a stamp just for the occasion - Family!


THE LITTLE QT JOURNAL ARTBOOK

Little babies are cute, and we refer to our 4x4 albums as LittleQTs, so we think this pairing of newborn photos and our 4x4” Journal ArtBook is a match made in heaven. The hand-torn deckled edges and soft texture of cotton rag paper are just beyond gorgeous. It’s small size also makes it extra portable - more chances for referrals! “Just imagine Grandma getting an album like that” - this phrase could be a good selling point for your clients. Take a look at the photos provided by Brianna Payne who is not only a talented photographer, but a lovely woman to work with!


MATTED FOLIOS

Our hand-made Matted Folios hold two or three images printed on Fuji Lustre photo paper or fine art Cotton Rag paper. Your prints are permanently mounted to a beautifully textured mat board and ready for display on any desk or mantle. They are a wonderful little gift that you can offer your clients with your family sessions.


MATTED COTTON PRINTS & CLAMSHELL BOX

A perfect combination: choose your matted cotton prints in the traditional style or with deckled edges and pair them with a beautiful clamshell presentation box. Newborn photographers love prints, and 100% Cotton Rag paper is ideal for portrait photography. Free of optical brighteners and printed with archival pigment inks, the details, colours and skin tones are superb. Clamshell boxes come in a wide range of colors in linen, velvet or silk and can be personalised to any taste. Thank you Veneta Hitrova for sharing your pictures!
