The brightest and most saturated of the Canon papers. A high-gloss surface holds the deepest blacks and the widest colour, with a mirror-like sheen that shows fingerprints and reflections.
The sensible default. A fine pearl texture diffuses reflections while keeping most of the depth and contrast of gloss: easy to look at in any light, and forgiving of handling.
Velvety and completely reflection-free, with a soft-touch surface. Blacks read as dense rather than glossy: the quietest, most contemporary of the papers.
The closest the offset press comes to a photographic print: a bright, faintly pearlescent coating with clean whites and strong colour. The safe choice for most albums.
A warm, uncoated art stock with a soft felt grain. Ink sits into the fibre rather than on top of it, so images read gentler and slightly muted: lovely for newborn and film-toned work.
A fine laid texture running across the sheet, catching the light in low relief. Traditional and tactile, with the same matte, unreflective surface as Tintoretto.
Flat, even and entirely without grain or sheen. It puts nothing between you and the photograph: a quiet, neutral stock for work that needs no help.
A shimmering iridescent coating that lifts highlights and gives whites a faint silver cast. Striking with backlit and evening photographs; strong-willed with everything else.
A true photographic print, exposed onto light-sensitive paper and chemically developed. The fine pearl surface holds continuous tone with no dot structure at all: the most photographic of everything I print.
Photographic paper on a metallised base. Highlights take on a bright, almost chromed depth and colour runs hot; best used deliberately, on images that can carry it.

Original Wedding Book
Graphistudio's classic flush-mount wedding album.
The album that set the standard. Graphistudio's Original Wedding Book introduced the panoramic flush-mount page, an internationally patented construction where thick, rigid pages open completely flat and a single image runs edge to edge across the full spread, with no gutter to interrupt it. Every one is made to order by hand in Italy.
Vertical formats run 20×30, 25×35, 30×40, 35×45 and 40×50 cm; square 20×20 through to 40×40 cm; horizontal 30×20, 35×25, 40×30 and 45×35 cm. Page counts run from 10 to 100 in multiples of two, so the book can be a slim, focused edit or a full account of the day.
Covers are where it becomes yours: Crystal Glance acrylic, metal and metal paint, wood, cork and maple, leathers in Nappa, Distressed and Sequoia, eco leather, cotton, linen, suede, interwoven, Touch, Leatherette in Class or Cloud, a dust jacket, or printed photographic paper with matt or gloss lamination. Finish it with laser engraving, hot-foil debossing, colour overprinting, colour overprinting with raised varnishing or raised foil, and add white, black or Lux linings (overprinted if you like) with overprinted block edges.
Pages are printed three ways: Canon DreamLabo on glossy, lustre or Deep Matte Lux; Indigo digital offset on textured, Tintoretto, smooth, pearl or Photo Lux; or photographic silver halide on lustre or metallic, with gloss or matte lamination to protect against handling and wear. Presentation options run from a free white box to a Design Box, Studio Box, Sleeve, Stylish Sleeve, Suitcase or Art Box.
