Boxes & Folios

The last object in the chain: what carries the work to your client, and what opens on their table afterwards.

Three ways to present your work

Album boxes. PrintBox.
Matted folios.

A box is where the finished work lives between viewings: closed, flat and archival-safe. A folio is the opposite: built to be opened, with prints held in thick archival mats and looked at one at a time. Both are on this page. The papers that go inside them have their own.

Presentation boxes

Kraft, linen,
or matched to the cover

Three box styles, each built on a sturdy binder's board core. What changes is the material wrapped around it, and how closely the box echoes the album inside.

Kraft Box + Dust Cover

Thick, stiff binder's board wrapped in eco-friendly kraft-colored recycled paper. The album travels inside its dust cover, protected in transit, and the box is priced to offer exceptional value.

PrintBox

A collection
that keeps growing

An elegant clamshell box designed for single-weight photographic prints. It shields the images from the elements and keeps them flat and archival-safe, which is the whole job of a print box.

It is sized to hold an initial set with room for more, so the same box takes next year's session too. The collection expands over time instead of being replaced, a tangible heirloom that grows with each new memory.

Matted folios

Prints in mats,
not in a binding

A folio holds prints in archival mats and lies flat when opened. There are two ways to get one: printed and bound by us, or self-mount, where you set the prints yourself.

Printed & Bound by KISS

We print the images, mount them in the mats and finish the folio here. It reaches you complete, with nothing left to assemble before you hand it over.

Thick Archival Mats

The mats do the framing. They are thick, archival and easy to assemble, and they hold one picture at a time. Nothing on the spread competes for attention.

Same day, from your studio

When the print
never leaves the room

Self-mount is built for fast, on-site delivery. Bring one to a wedding, print a handful of images on the spot and present it the same day. The look on the couple's faces is unforgettable, and so is the impression you leave on everyone watching.

Boudoir asks for the same thing from the other side. Some clients prefer that their images never leave your studio, and some photographers simply want complete control over the print process. Self-mount gives you both, without compromising on archival quality.
