July 2002 - That was the date the photographic industry saw two of Australia's most recognized and respected manufacturers of wedding albums and specialized photographic packaging merge. By joining Seldex Pty.Ltd and Artistic Bookbinders we have created a company, with over 70 years experience, which offers the Professional Photographer the most comprehensive and distinctive range of photographic presentation products available.  We strive to meet our customer's wishes for a custom handmade product at an affordable price.

Our collection remains original, contemporary and functional, and our creative taste and sense of fine workmanship are of paramount importance.Seldex Artistic Albums are members of the Australian Institute of Professional Photography (AIPP), the Photographic and Imaging Council of Australia (PICA), the Professonal Photographers of America (PPA) and the Wedding and Portrait Photographers International (WPPI).  We proudly support Professional Photographers worldwide.

The 5 big questions every photographer should ask when selecting an album company are:

1. Will this album company be my long term partner?

When selecting an album company make sure the album company has a long held reputation and commitment to the industry.  Seldex Artistic Albums are the oldest continuing manufacturer of specialist photographic packaging in Australia and with over 50 years experience we continue to lead the industry with innovative and exciting albums and associated products.

2.  Will the album company deliver consistent quality on time?

At Seldex Artistic Albums you are assured of a quality product everytime.  99% of all our products are handmade by fully qualified tradesmen in our Brunswick factory.  Our employees understand the importance of creating products that are of consistent quality that can be delivered on time, everytime.

3.  Does my album manufacturer offer a full range of products?

Many album suppliers offer a limited range of products suited to their market niche; many of them offering albums only.  At Seldex Artistic Albums we have the largest range of albums and presentation products available in Australia.  We like to offer studios every product to suit their needs; therefore besides albums you will find portrait packaging, folder mounts, portfolios, gift options and even wall mounts complimenting our range.  We are sure to have a product in a style, colour, size and price point to meet virtually any of your requirements.

4.  Does my album manufacturer offer a full range of services?

The photography industry has changed dramatically over the last few years.  If you look at a Seldex Pty.Ltd. catalogue from 20 years ago (yes, we do have them!) you will find albums and folder mounts only.  Nowadays for an album manufacturer to remain at the cutting edge of the industry they must be able to offer a variety of products and services.  Our services range from flush mounting images, laminating prints, printing on canvas or silk to full album assembly.

5.  Does the album manufacturer cherish your business?

Let's face it anyone can sell you an album BUT are they committed to you and your business?  At Seldex Artistic Albums YOU are our business therefore we value your custom and treat every customer as a valued business partner.  After all, our business success depends on you and your business success and we will never forget that.
