Bound by hand in soft sky blue linen and hand-printed with ‘Baby’ in pale gold foil, this new baby photo album is made to capture your little boy’s first chapter. It’s simple and understated, the kind of album that lets the photos do the talking.

Those early days and months are a rollercoaster, and they fly by in a nanosecond. Thousands of photos get taken: the first bath, the first smile, the first cuddle with grandma. This is the perfect way to get them off your phone and into a book to preserve for posterity.

It’s a brilliant gift for new parents, for proud grandparents, for yourself or, maybe most importantly, for the little chap himself, who’ll be glad of it in about twenty years.

How it works

Plain pages. No sleeves or fixed slots, so you can arrange photos however you like.

Simple to fill. Attach photos with double-sided mounting tape, glue dots or photo corners.

Room to write. The photoboard is thick enough for captions, dates and the stories behind the pictures, in fountain pen, felt-tip, biro or pencil.

Built to last. Glassine interleaves protect your photos and give the album a proper heirloom feel.

Plenty of room to grow. The clever expandable binding lets you keep adding photos and mementos without straining the spine.
