This year's Bragging Rights promo went way beyond our expectations! We were overwhelmed by the amazing response from hundreds of photographers, and are truly grateful to everyone who participated. Thank you very much from everyone at Queensberry. The brief was for "images with something special to say about love and laughter, a vibrant culture, a dramatic environment or a compelling story". We also needed to represent the various regions and markets we serve as widely as possible, and we weren't looking just for weddings! Over the next few weeks, in no particular order, we'd like to introduce To View More >>

Our customers love our little copy albums and are always asking for more, so here goes! You can now order flushmount digital copies of all our albums. Not just the large ones, all of them. Want copies of an 8x8 or 10x7 original? No problem. But that's not all... You can now order flushmount minis, with free freight and design and colour correction just like their bigger sisters. Sizes available: 7x5 V/H, 6x6 or 5x4 V/H. AND you can order digital copies from them too. Just one thing to remember... You can't order digital copies that are larger than the original album ;) What could you do with these To View More >>

Yesterday I came across these beautiful invitations by Atelier Isabey. I wish I could touch them. I wish you could! Imagine our first sensory experience as babies - touch, taste, smell, sound, vision - how gradually they made the world real and meaningful... And how we realised that the world isn't just out there, that we can design it - make it beautiful - the origin of art, craft, home-making, cooking, gardening... based sometimes on our traditions, sometimes on our own creativity. I know some of us are more conscious of these things than others, but at least for the fortunate among us, finely To View More >>

A quick reminder that our new prices take effect after the 10th of November, the cut-off date for guaranteed delivery before our end-of-year closedown. At the same time we're introducing free album design and free standard colour correction on all our professional albums – Flushmount, Overlay Matted, Classic Matted and Duo. Until then, when the Workspace infrastructure is upgraded for the new service, our free design / free colour correction special offer continues. So get in quick for the best of both worlds, our old prices and the new free service! Two conditions apply: you must send us JPGs To View More >>

A while ago I suggested "keeping it simple" was a great goal ... but not simple to achieve in a complicated job like photography. But I did suggest you could do it with Queensberry. Take our Design Service. There are benefits to doing your own album design, so what I'm about to say isn't going to work for everyone. But if you're snowed under or uncomfortable with album design it's worth serious thought. Say on average you spend 3-4 hours on each album design ... and many people do spend a lot more. Send them to Queensberry and you've just freed up at least a day. You can bet that at this time of To View More >>

Last year we introduced The Queensberry Press, our first toe-dip into the brave new world of digital offset-printing. Everyone, from our designers to our developers immediately started working hard on v2.0 - starting with a hard look at what you had to say about the first release! So here's what's in The Queensberry Press v2.0. It starts with a really good introductory deal. Order any Queensberry Press book before Friday 20th May 2011 and you'll pay half price. Our discount on all "value packages" also increases from the normal 40% to 50% for the same period (as listed in Photojunction). We've To View More >>

If you specify Full Colour Service printing, we colour correct your images. The old fashioned way, one at a time. We don't run software shortcuts or bulk edit your images. Every single image (or layer) gets personal attention from our specialist colour correctors. It's their job to get your images looking their best and ready for printing and album assembly. Our colour correction policy is to achieve consistency across the images in your album and to optimise natural skin-tones ... and if we spot any problems, to let you know. Once we're done your images go straight to the lab for printing. No To View More >>

Last week was fantastic! Our free design and colour correction announcement generated more comments and support suite enquiries than anything else we've ever done. And it started a lot of conversations with people about how it would work in practice, and how they could use it to increase their sales. What's driving this free service is the change in our industry, with more photographers adopting the line that albums aren't worth the time and aggravation. That attitude isn't new, and we think it's always been nonsense, but the best way to challenge it is to eliminate the "time and aggravation", To View More >>

Today we're announcing free album design and free standard colour correction on all our professional albums - Flushmount, Overlay Matted, Classic Matted and Duo. Here's why... When we're discussing how we can improve our products and services, we ask ourselves three questions: Can we make it fun? Will it save you time? Will it make you money? This time we're aiming for all three :) Many of our customers pay us to colour correct their images. Many pay us to design their albums as well. Many more wish they could afford to do the same. ALL OF YOU are going to enjoy one of two things. A fresh chance To View More >>

OK, you've just started with Queensberry? Or you've bought a beautiful new sample? Stephen wrote about how you can get an immediate pay-off on your investment by sending a simple message to your past customers and current bookings - those who haven't bought or committed to an album yet. His promotion can bring in thousands of extra dollars and set your business on a completely new trajectory - but instead of jumping in and having a go, people sometimes get sidetracked by doubts and questions. Like... I don't have time. No problem! We can design and colour correct for you. What if I get too busy? To View More >>
