HEY WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHERS, THIS IS FOR YOU!   We’re excited to announce that we will be sponsoring the  International Wedding Photographer of the Year awards again in 2020. The IWPOTY awards are dedicated to celebrating beauty and art within the wedding photography industry, and there are insane prizes to be won. Last year’s overall winners were Canadians Cat & Jeff Chang of  The Apartment Photography. Maybe this year it could be you!  Entries are open until the 1st of September — but make sure you get your entries in quick! Click To View More >>

Online galleries are a great way to display your portfolio, but printed portfolios have way more impact . And here's something different again – a "portfolio album". Such an impressive calling card! This particular portfolio is a 10x10 Panorama Flushmount with Fine Art printing — a high-end choice. Panoramas are perfect for big, bold imagery. You can spread a single photograph across a double page spread for major impact — creased, not cut, at the spine.  Q-Books (medium and light) are affordable alternatives. Portrait Albums are To View More >>

Congratulations to Chris Lagria, who wins a 60x40 personalised canvas from our Canvas Giveaway promotion on Facebook. Two weeks ago we never dreamed there would be such an overwhelming response.

If you're a photographer, and you shared our post, we'd like to say thank you by offering you 15% discount off all your canvas purchases — everything in our canvas range! — until the end of March. And yes, we can deliver pretty much anywhere around the world. Because we only deal with professionals, you'll need to be either To View More >>

Panorama flushmounts are our fastest growing album category. Many photographers love the fact that the prints are creased, not cut, at the spine, that we offer both Fine Art (inkjet) and traditional photographic printing, and that our optional medium-weight pages mean you'll have a sleeker looking album, and can include more layouts. So here’s the thing: Is this the first you've heard about our Panos? Or maybe you never got round to ordering a sample? Now's the time! Get 50% off with our special offer. Order a Panorama Sample Album now, ready for January delivery, and we’ll To View More >>

Last week we shipped the very first real live order for our new medium-weight lay-flat Q Books. Not a prototype, not a concept drawing or trial album, but our very first, real live order. These lay-flats were just a part of our 2015 launch, our biggest in years, with new cover materials, new panoramic flushmounts and much more. We showed them first at WPPI and SWPP, but despite our own excitement and the enthusiastic response, we’ve resisted shipping the lay-flats until now. Why? To make them perfect they needed a little extra love, so we went back to the drawing board. The last To View More >>

Although a lot of you love our albums (us too!) we operate on the simple principle that you're running a business, and if you can't make money selling them you shouldn't buy them. But there's no doubt many photographers do struggle. Partly that's because they sell a la carte, and have persuaded themselves that their clients don't want albums. I don't buy it. A la carte is often shorthand for having a cheap headline price, and no levers you can pull to make a better sale. (I'm not saying a la carte's a bad idea, but it needs close thought). As for people not wanting albums, it was the same story To View More >>

The Iris Awards are an important platform for showcasing the outstanding talent of New Zealand professional photographers. This year we had six Queensberry clients win categories, and you can view their winning images on our blog post here. We were also pleased that Bruce Gabites won the Wedding Album category and allowed us to share his winning album layouts with you. Bruce says “being able to put together a great wedding album is the true test of a wedding photographer's ability and consistency by being able to capture a series of stunning images right throughout the day – not just being To View More >>

Emma Hughes designed these beautiful wedding albums for Maya & Will. The bride and groom chose a gorgeous 14x10 album with a leather 1/4 page photo front.  The photograph is printed on a metallic paper with a textured laminate applied which seals the image and makes it especially hard-wearing as a cover option. Maya liked a white page design and Will preferred the black page designs, so the album was created with alternating black and white pages. Rather than getting a replica of Maya and Will’s feature album, their parents decided instead to choose a 10×7″ matted album, custom designed To View More >>

Pride has positive and negative connotations. After all it's one of the deadly sins. However everyone that works for Queensberry is proud of what we do and what we produce. With pride comes humility - the flip side of pride - and by nature most New Zealanders tend not to blow our own trumpets. But in Queensberry's case we've put ourselves on a world stage where we can hold our own.  Each of us takes it upon ourselves to instil a sense of pride in what we do. We have a culture of doing the best we can. No one told me to write this post, I just wanted to mention the people I work with. Most of the To View More >>
