This Collection, envisioned by Kelly Brown,
the world class icon of this genre, is the first
dedicated range of its kind.
Newborn photography has become one of the most relevant discipline in the industry, bringing
in a brand new breed of lively, creative photographers capable of inspiring millions of families by
capturing amazing portraits of their children.
Kelly Brown has built her entire career upon outstanding quality and attention to details.
Thanks to her incredible experience and solid technical background Kelly has given a new pulse
to newborn photography, demonstrating how to obtain the same perceived value of, for
instance, fashion photography through composition, artistic vision, design, postproduction and
education. Graphistudio is proud to partner with such a great player and shape a delicate,
comprehensive, amazing range of products to celebrate life in its pure essence: our children.
“When I present a beautiful GraphiStudio album to my clients, I’m handing over their entire
world in print, delicately crafted and created, for their family to cherish now and for future
generations to come.
The significance of what I am handing them is not something I take lightly.
That is why I will only trust GraphiStudio, for their incredible care and attention to detail, that
I rely on, and my clients will love forever.”
Kelly Brown, WPPI Double Master of Photography

Favola, handmade with love
Favola is handmade with love and is the Italian word for "fable", because
our children deserve a great story where magic meets reality and maternal
love will protect them forever.
Everything in Favola is designed to give a vintage feeling, to transcend time
and trends. The luxury leather wrap protects the album, which is hand-bound
and hand-made with cotton paper; the magical look and feel are a result of
the organic materials that glorify newborn photography.

PAPER: Pure cotton Amalfi paper, with deckle edges.
BINDING AND PAGES: Japanese, min 10 max 40 pages.
Flushmount min. 10 max 20 pages.

Materials
Leather
The full grain “Etrusco” leather is exclusive for the Kelly Brown Collection.
The rich texture, soft surface combined with the high quality cowhide is made
in Tuscany (Italy) and features a natural tanning process along with a manual
staining that ensures that each piece is truly unique.
Paper
Favola is the first album featuring handmade limited edition Amalfi paper.
The deckled edge is created using the same ancient paper making process, very
much the same workflow still used in the family owned paper mill in Amalfi (Italy).
Made with 100% cotton fiber, smooth surface.
Why this name?
“Etrusco” means it comes from
Etruria, the Latin name of the
kingdom occupied by the ancient
Etruscans, close to the
Tuscany-Umbria-Lazio area.
This civilisation, still partially
covered by mistery, settled the
roots of the Roman Empire.
Contessa, the master of the Castle
Contessa means Countess in Italian.
It’s a tribute paid by Kelly Brown to the last master of our amazing Castle
Ceconi, the iconic venue where Graphistudio hosts worskhops and round
tables with photographers from all over the world. Contessa represents the
fifth essence of the Matted Album, featuring HD printing, solid oak wood
cover, real Italian leather spine.
SIZE: 13x9.5"
PRINT: CANON DREAMLABO HD PRINT FINE ART.
BINDING AND PAGES: Lay Flat, white Tintoretto bevel mat,
with thick white core. Min 10, max 20 pages.
COVER: Wood front panel
Sequoia leather spine & back.
Materials
Leather
Full grain “Sequoia” leather.
Rich texture, natural look, warm feeling. Sequoia looks like a distressed surface
aged by time, creating a vintage look and feel. One of the most popular choice
among our clients, it’s perfect for this classic product.
Matted pages
Contessa features our unique Matted Album binding, with high precision bevel
cut and HD printing technology. The best in terms of durability and color
gamut. Available from 10 up to 20 thick pages.
Meet the Count family!
Count Ceconi’s wife, the
Countess Josepha, took
care of the building for
all her life. She loved that
place more than
anything else, until the
First World War forced
the family to leave.
Showcase, timeless semplicity
This is the ideal solution for your maternity/newborn sessions, a box where
you can store from 10 to 20 matted pictures. Showcase is handmade in solid
oak wood, in two different finishing, the classic “shabby white” and the
vintage “decapè”.
The sliding acrylic lid protects the pictures and transforms the box into a
standing frame to be displayed in your clients’ homes.
BOX SIZES: 8x10" or 11x14"
BOX CAPACITY: To hold 10 or 20 mats in regular thickness.
BOX MATERIAL: Wood shabby or decapé, with acrylic lid.

Materials
Wood
Unlike any stock product, Showcase are hand made one by one, as everything
else at Graphistudio. Made of solid oak wood, this box looks solid and
substancial; the perceived quality is much higher than imitations or cheap
items available on the web. Even the simple sliding lid is cut with micrometric
precision, assuring a perfect, smooth closure.
Mats and prints
Our mats feature a bevel cut (45°) and 3mm (1/8 inch) thickness, certified
archival therefore compatible with fine art products.
Prints available in this range are performed by Canon Dreamlabo™, HD ink jet
technology, for wider color gamut and unparalleled quality over time.
Paper range goes from Fine art, Deep Matte Touch, Lustre to Glossy finishing.
Decapè and shabby chic, a style born in France
Decapè finishing became very popular in France, during King
Lewis XV (1710-1774). Originally it was a tecnique to preserve
wood fornitures from parassites but later became a design trend.
Its natural look gives a kind of warm feeling where pastel colors,
white more often than not, are applied on the wood surface and
then partially removed by hand. The “worn” aspect perfectly fits
the popular shabby chic style.
Storia, storytelling for newborn
Photography is about capturing light and telling a story.
Looking at things from this angle we might say that newborn photography
tells the very first chapter of everyone’s story. Storia (Italian word for story) has
been designed to bound together the unique pictures of babies’ first days,
creating a series of volumes ideal for the classic trilogy “maternity - newborn -
first year”.
SLIP-IN MATS BOOK: Size 8x10" - 10x8", from 6 to max
12 bound slip-in mats, with black or white lux linings
and hard back cover in Suede.
SLEEVE: Size 8.5x11.5" or 11.5x8.5", Wood Fiber with
hidden magnets to align and lock multiple box
together.
OPTIONS: Storia is also available without the prints.
Materials
Suede cover
Suede represents the perfect mix between the nobility of leather and the
versatility of cloth. It’s a microfiber that earned huge success both in the
fashion industry and design. Extremely soft and resistant, it perfectly suits each
curve and fold of the object it covers, while remaining smooth and close-fitting.
Book and sleeve
The book is a slip in mats binder, from 6 to 12 pages (sides) with hard back
cover and square spine.
The sleeve of Storia hides a little feature: magnets are merged into the structure
and can keep tightly together two or more volumes! Wrap up with a white shabby
wood fibre finishing, the sleeve is tailor made on the book size.
About storytelling
Stories are integral to human culture
and storytelling is timeless. It’s about
a compelling narrative and belongs to
photography too.
Storytelling adds value to a picture,
because captures the inner sense of
human beings, their families and their
entire life.
Jewelbox, a treasure chest
The crossover product that ties together digital and prints.

Why printing nowadays?
With so many electronic devices in our hands and
the ever-connected life style, printing pictures
might seem meaningless. That’s a common
misconception! Prints are invaluable over time,
they survive technologies, trends and even us...
Printed pictures are our heritage for the
generations to come. In many ways, they will be
the thread connecting ancestors to descendants.
