The textured white finish is identical to the superior board used for all our mounted prints, providing a consistent and professional look.

Select a cover that says something special
Included in the price of each Client Folio is a stunning, carefully selected, choice of fabrics and colours. From 100% cotton in a neutral colour to our rayon-based fabric with the best possible eco credentials in an eye-popping shade. Our durable, open-weave Heritage Fabric, Core Fabric and Essential Cotton Ranges are included as standard.
On-trend colours that compliment or contrast in a range of beautiful materials
Please note that swatch colours are a guide and may vary from the actual material colour. Swatches can be ordered from our online shop.
Every shade in the Core Fabric range has been meticulously chosen to resonate with a broad spectrum of moods and styles. Whether it’s the soft whisper of a wedding or the exuberance of a family gathering, there’s a Core Fabric tone ready to complement the narrative.
While rayon boasts a rich, luxurious feel, it also aligns with our dedication to a low environmental impact. You’re not just choosing a fabric; you’re making a choice for sustainability.
Experience the raw beauty of 100% pure cotton with our Essential Cotton collection. Crafted with precision, every inch of this fabric tells a tale of authenticity and timeless charm. In choosing Essential Cotton, you’re not just opting for style but also making an environmentally-conscious decision.
The two-tone effect adds depth and dimension, lending a contemporary flair to classic cotton. With shades that range from the calming greys and greens to the passionate reds and profound blacks, there’s a hue for every story.
Introducing the Heritage Collection – a tribute to the raw, unrefined beauty of nature. Crafted from pure linen and inspired by natural tones. Our shades resonate with tranquillity and warmth. From the delicate hues of ‘Parchment’ and ‘Sea Breeze’ to the grounded essence of ‘Oatmeal’ and ‘Tusk’, each colour captures a feeling of timelessness.
Our wide-weave design creates a textured fabric that’s both robust and rich to the touch. With the rustic allure of linen complemented by its luxurious feel, the Heritage collection is where strength meets style.
Dive into a world where pure silk graces every touch. Our silk collection embodies the epitome of luxury, delivering a tactile experience that is as visually stunning as it is sensuous to the touch.
Every slub in the weave tells a story, adding character and depth to the fabric. These slight irregularities, inherent to pure silk, enhance its beauty, making every piece unique, authentic, and true to its origin.
Make your album personal with our range of customisations
Small details mean a lot. We’ve significantly expanded our personalisation techniques so we can offer greater flexibility with no compromise on quality.
Want to add names, dates, your studio logo, or even bespoke emblems of the happy couple’s initials? Our techniques for covers and boxes include time-honoured methods such as debossing & foiling, through to modern laser engraving and state-of-the-art printing. If our standard fonts don’t meet your requirements, we can offer additional fonts to meet your specifications.
Elevate your folio with custom cover text. Personalised with names, wedding date, or a heartfelt message, it adds a touch of elegance and sentimental value that will remind your clients and their loved ones of their special day for years to come.
Available in a range of fonts and styles, cover text transforms any Client Folio into a cherished keepsake, beautifully crafted to perfection.
Enhance your photography business by adding your studio logo. Showcase your brand identity and professionalism by customising the cover with your brand.
For a professional photographer, it’s not just a logo; it’s a mark of quality and trust, leaving a lasting impression and ensuring that your name is forever connected to the cherished memories you’ve expertly captured.
A bespoke motif is a unique graphic or decorative element that is used to personalise the Client Folio. This could be custom fonts, a graphic from the wedding stationery or the couple’s monogram.
Bespoke motifs can be chosen to reflect the individuality and personal style of the couple, making their folio truly one-of-a-kind.
Choose from a range of personalisation methods to best suit your cover choice
Cover printing is a cutting-edge technique that adds a touch of brilliance and sophistication to your cover.
It’s a process that involves using UV light to cure specially formulated white or black ink that is applied to the cover material. The result? Stunning, high-definition cover text, studio logo or motif with intricate detail.
To engrave your text or logo, we use a highly accurate laser to precisely remove the top layer of the material, revealing its natural hues beneath.
Laser engraving is a versatile and durable personalisation technique that can be used on most of our materials. If you are looking for a way to personalise your Client Folio with a natural finish, then laser engraving is a great option.
Blind debossing, also known as blind blocking, stamping or simply debossing, is a traditional method of imprinting into a surface without ink or foil. It creates a subtle yet elegant and tactile finish.
The debossing process begins with individually typesetting brass characters or, for studio logos or motifs, a brass die is created. The brass text or die is then heated and pressed into the material, creating a depression in the shape of the design.
Blind debossing is a versatile technique that can be used on many of our cover materials but is especially suited to leather.
Foil blocking, also known as hot stamping, is a process of imprinting metallic foil into a material to create a really eye-catching finish. It is similar to debossing, but instead of simply impressing the letters into the material, a thin layer of metallic foil is pressed into the indentation.
Similar to debossing, foil blocking begins with the meticulous arrangement of individual brass characters. Alternatively, for studio logos or intricate motifs, a custom brass die is made to order. This precision-crafted brass component is then heated and pressed into the material, accompanied by a layer of coloured metallic foil. The result? A striking depression in the material, beautifully shaped to mirror your design with a luxurious metallic finish.

Customer service is second to none. Absolutely fantastic. A handwritten note and perfectly packaged products delivered quickly. Also I was having issues resizing the logo to the specification needed and straight away a member of the team helped me and sent me the file altered to use in the future. Couldn’t be more pleased.
Thank you everyone at folio!

Why on earth would you use anybody else! Folio Albums make the very best quality albums that you will have ever seen, they are all beautifully handmade, ethically sourced and exquisitely presented! I have used a number of album suppliers over the ten years that I have been a professional photographer but none with the same level of attention to detail and customer focus as Folio Albums – their customer service is second to none! When you’re a busy photographer it’s nice to know that your album supplier has got your back. If you asked me to recommend an album supplier, I’d recommend Folio Albums in a heartbeat! Thank you for being amazing! 🙂

I’ve just received my first Fine Art album for my newborn photography business and it is just absolutely stunnng! I just love it. The help and support I had from the staff at Folio putting together the album was second to none and everybody I have spoken to has been just so lovely and helpful. I’m sure the quality of the album will sell itself and I will definitely be using Folio as my album supplier. Just brilliant!
