Coffee Table Books, different look, different style, great value!
The Coffee Table Book packages were introduced in 2006 and people loved it so much that we simply had to keep it around until 2009. The story of the Artisan Coffee table books is kinda interesting. When we first introduced it, the first three brides we showed it to really didn’t care for them. Shocked, and a bit disappointed we nearly put our demo album away forever and cancelled the packages. Yet the next bride who saw it loved it so much that she bought it. And then a whole string of brides came in and bought these Coffee Table Book packages. These books defiantly have found their market. Next to the Magazine albums they are one of the more popular album packages we offer.
The reason they are popular is because of their unique layout. With either 60 or 80 page sides there are a lot of pages to lay the books out, and give the images room to be displayed. On our website we have an example of a layout we’ve used with these books. Looking at the example you will get the point. The other thing that appeals to the brides is that these books come as a set. The parents are taken care of with this package. Here's something we learned about parents over time. You will never really understand what your parents have done for you until you are a parent. What can you do for them to repay them? Chances are there really isn't anything you can buy for them. A house on the cliffs of Laguna Beach? Okay, besides that there isn't much that you can buy for them. What makes parents happy is you! They are proud of you, and want to brag about you. Look at that 7"x7" book above. Can you picture what they would do if they had a lovely book of their daughter's or son's wedding? This is something that they will cherish. The books are really neat looking. When they have made the circuit around their friends and family they will proudly display it somewhere in their home. The last thing we’ve heard why brides like these books so much is because they look like a magazine. The thinner, glossy paper has a look and quality about it that is a bit flashy, artistic, and fun!
In
general this is something that grabs you
or doesn’t. We’re surprised by who it
grabs. We have clients who can afford
more expensive, glamorous packages who
for some reason just become smitten by
these books. So, you just may be one of
them! You can also order replica copies
in various sizes, in softbound and hardbound.
We have quite a few examples we
can show you of these packages.
The design process is fairly simple, you
pick out all the images, we lay it out, and
give you ten free changes before you approve
the final layout. Once it’s approved
you will have it in around a month. We
have a document we give you that makes
selecting images from your wedding very easy.

We have been made aware that there is another company that is selling wedding albums under the name Artisan. We would like to make it clear that the packages and features described above have nothing to do with this company in question. We are not offering products or services from this company, and don't plan to in the future. Though it may sound confusing, our Artisan Coffee Table Books, Magazine Albums or Fine Art Series books, are unique to Lifetime Images. What we describe in our packages have nothing do with what other studios offer. The only similarity is the name Artisan. Thus, if you are intrigued by one of our packages and ask another studio if they can give you the same Artisan package, if they say yes you can be assured that what they will be offering you is something different than what we sell.
