The Digital Edit · Heirloom albums and artwork

The photographs you already have, made to last.

They live on phones, hard drives and in the cloud. Thousands of them. The trips, the milestones and the ordinary days you always meant to do something with.

We curate them, find the story and design it into heirloom albums and museum-quality artwork for your home. Whether we took the photographs or you did.

The Digital Edit Editions

Every story calls for its own edit.

The Story Edit

One story. One volume.

A trip to Paris, a honeymoon, a new baby, a milestone birthday. One chapter, edited and designed as a single heirloom album, with a curated digital archive.

From €3,500

The Collection Edit

More than one volume.

Years of family travel, a child’s early years, a second home visited season after season. Several stories, edited as one collection and designed as a series of albums.

On request

The Curated Print Box

The moments between the chapters.

The candid moments and small details that did not make the album, printed on archival Fuji DP II Luster paper in a premium archival box. Available with the Story and Collection Edits.

Our standards

Curated, not organized.

The Digital Edit is not a photo organizing service. It is an editorial process, led by Katie and her team, that turns an overwhelming collection into a meaningful body of work.

Every image earns its place

The goal is never to include every photograph. It is to keep the ones that deserve to be remembered.

Story before sequence

Your album tells a story. It does not simply list events in the order they happened.

Made for generations

Every album and artwork is made to be opened, shared and lived with for decades.

Our belief

“Photographs are never only about the day they’re taken. They’re about the years that follow.”

Katie Donnelly · Founder & Creative Director · Paris, since 2013

How it works

You share the photographs. We tell the story.

  1. 01

    Talk

    A short call to hear your story, answer your questions and choose the right edition.

  2. 02

    Begin

    You choose your album, its size and cover, and any artwork. A deposit reserves your edit.

  3. 03

    Gather

    A short questionnaire tells us who and what matters. Then you send the photographs by cloud upload, Dropbox, shared folder or hard drive. Your originals are never altered.

  4. 04

    Curate

    We review every photograph, keep the strongest and most meaningful, and shape them into a story.

  5. 05

    Review

    You see the curated collection and confirm that every important person, place and moment is there.

  6. 06

    Deliver

    We oversee production and send your finished albums and artwork, with a handwritten note.
