SERVICES

Our aim is to make this as easy and relaxed as possible for you, as we know how much hard work it is preparing for a birth and then taking care of a baby.

What we offer is a bespoke and personal service which includes scanning, graphic design, photography, digital editing, printing and delivery. By nature this service will be tailored to you, we will advise and guide but are more than happy to include any ideas you may have, in fact the more you put in, the more special
the book will be.

Consultation.

The first step is just to have a chat about what you’d like and your budget. We’re based in London so, if possible one of us will pop round to have a look at your materials and discuss the options and budgets. If you’re a bit too far away for that we can chat things through on the phone or via skype or email. See our ‘prices’ page for a guideline of costs.

The timelines will depend on what stage of the pregnancy or parenthood you are in and when we receive the materials, but we aim to deliver the finished product within a month of design approval. If you have a particular deadline do let us know and we’ll do
our best to meet it.

Your input/the process.

We’ll guide you through this. Obviously the more material you provide us with, the more detailed and special we’ll be able to make the book. Our book included things like: silly notes we wrote each other when we met, journal extracts, bus tickets, baby presents, messages from family and friends, pregnancy tests, favourite song lyrics, fun facts about us, hospital scans, family trees, and of course hundreds of photos. All you need to do is to keep everything you want included in the book and pass it onto us, we’ll take care of any scanning and will return the originals safely to you.

Books & printing.

We offer a selection of quality soft and hardback books in a variety of sizes from your small, portable book to carry around with you, to your large coffee table type book. Depending on space we can also add in blank pages at the back so you can update the book yourselves, should you so wish.

 

OTHER SERVICES

Photography.
We work with professional photographers and can help you capture any additional pictures that you’d like, making sure that there are some beautiful
images for the book.

Online.
As well as delivering finished, printed books to your specifications we can also host the entire book online and provide a password login for your family and friends to view and download the PDF wherever they may be.

Film & slideshows.
We can also offer to piece together any videos or photos that you have and create movies or slide shows, set to the music of your choice. This can be delivered on DVD and added to the book package.

Languages.
We can provide any of these services in English or Spanish.

Assurances.
We understand that some of the contents of the book will be private and personal so therefore promise our discretion and to ensure that nothing will be publicised unless express permission is given.

You will receive an online proof of the design for feedback or approval. Nothing will be printed until you are 100% happy with it.

Any materials you give us will be kept safely and for only a short time. We recognise these are very valuable and precious to you, so where possible we will collect and deliver in person.
