A VERY SPECIAL PHOTO ALBUM with PRINTIQUE

This post is sponsored by Printique.

One of my most asked questions on Instagram is what service I use to print my photos. After trying other photo printed services, I discovered Printique and I was blown away by the quality– truly, it’s next level. I feel so passionate about Printique’s quality that I joke about being their unofficial spokesperson… and now they reached out to me to do a sponsored post about their new Flatlay Silk Photo Albums. I jumped at the chance, because I had the perfect project in mind… A photo album of our favorite photos of Hamilton.

Creating a photo album in memory of Hamilton, my beloved dog who passed away earlier this year, was a truly special experience. I wanted each page to reflect the joy he brought into my life and capture our most cherished moments together. I had an album in my camera roll on my phone of the best photos and videos of Hammy and I narrowed it down to the best ones to create the photo album with.

For Hamilton’s album, I chose Printique’s layflat silk photo album, a beautiful, soft, yet incredibly durable keepsake. The album’s seamless design allows each page to lie completely flat when open, making it easy to view every detail of the photos. The silk fabric cover has a luxurious feel, adding an elegant touch that makes the album feel just as special as the memories it holds. It also comes with a gorgeous gift box. One of my favorite things about Printique’s albums is how customizable they are—you can select from different sizes and colors (I went with the 10×10 album in Ruby with 20 pages on the luster paper) and add as many photos as you want.

The pages of this album are crafted with Silver Halide Digital C real photo paper, known for its unmatched quality and color accuracy. The thicker covers and textured end sheets add to its durability and timeless aesthetic, making it a true heirloom piece I’ll cherish forever. Printique offers two page weight options, both thicker than standard photo book pages, which adds a luxurious, archival feel that’s perfect for preserving memories.

I’m just so grateful to have a beautiful, tangible way to honor Hamilton’s memory and relive our happy moments together whenever I want.

Thank you Printique for sponsoring this post.
