I firmly believe that every love story deserves to have an heirloom that can be passed down for generations to come. These albums are a true investment that will only increase in value with time. I like to imagine your kids leafing through the pages, seeing you guys back when you were younger, connecting with a version of you they can only know through photographs. Because let's be real, who knows if instagram will even exist at that point? Having your photos preserved in a tangible way is definitely a throwback to a simpler, less digital world, and it ensures your images will live on in the event that the hard drive that they're stored on corrupts, or becomes obsolete. Your one-of-a-kind album will be perfectly crafted to showcase your photos with high-quality, anti-fade printing, bound with a lay-flat binding, and covered with woven linen or Italian leather to safely protect your memories for decades to come.
Your favorite moments & memories should be right at your fingertips.

order your album
04.
Parent Albums are an optional add-on to the primary book. A 10x10 or 12x12 Heirloom Album must be ordered first.
05. Can I order a set of parent books only?
Once I place the order, the album ships within 4-6 weeks. I generally prefer to have the album shipped to me for quality control, then if you're local we can arrange for a drop off, or if you live outside of Pittsburgh, I can ship the album to you at no extra cost.
04. how long will it take to receive our album?
Yes! You can create a favorites list in Pixieset with up to 150 of your favorite wedding photos & I can pull from that for my final design. We can tweak things along the way. Conversely, if you'd rather I choose from my favorites instead, we can go that route as well (to save you time!)
03. Can I choose all the photos that go into my album?
You totally can! However, the quality is going to be vastly different. I have created beautiful albums for clients who, in the beginning, first tried to outsource to Artifact Uprising & ended up with awful colors and blurry images. It's not worth the risk.
02. Why shouldn't I just use another company and order/design an album myself?
I personally design the layout of your album for you. I will send you the first mockup, and you can make notes online to swap/delete/add photos. Once you approve the design, I order your album!
01. How does the design process work?
Have a question? I've got an answer! And if you don't see your question here, please reach out via email: sarahmccloskeyphoto@gmail.com
