Queensberry is the best ive seen, but i've not bothered looking at a price, because it's bound to be expensive :D

Another is asukabook.. theyre well priced and quite a few options :)

Hi Zeddy,

Queensberry is probably not your best option - they are pricey and you need to buy a starter-kit to basically open an account with them. This is about $450. Plus you may have to get your head around their own design software - Photojunction which is by far the easiest way to design a QBY album. (just about to send Queensberry my first order - 4 albums - about $3800 cost to me!)

Some photographers who have accounts with Queensberry and the like do offer a design service for other clients who didnt get their wedding shot by them.

You are better off with http://www.albumsaustralia.com.au which is easy enough to set up an account with and is reasonably priced. You can send your prints to a prob-lab of your choice (eg bong imaging, the edge) and then assemble the album yourself if you want to do it on the cheap - they can also do it for you.

Another option could be http://www.photomounts.com.au which do offer cheap DIY slip-in albums with one-sized aperture matts whereby you can slip in your own prints. (as well as normal albums)

Better yet, fly me over and Ill shoot the wedding and drop her a stunning Queensberry album :)
