NEW CATALOGUE OUT NOW!


Firstly Boots Creative + The Coffee Table Book would like to wish you all a Happy New Year and hope you and your families are safe and haven't been affected by the terrible floods being experienced by many Queenslanders.

With the recent weather patterns we have been experiencing, its been a time for me to reflect on many things.  Its very tragic to loose your positions through flood, fire, etc and don't think one fully understands it until they have been through the emotions and lost their personal belongings to understand that kind of loss, it reminds me how important our family photos are. Once the photos are destroyed they are gone for good. If you have lost your albums, disks and computers in disasters then there isn't much hope of getting them back.

Well that's part of the reason Boots Creative exists - mostly to ensure people treasure their family photos and display them with fabulous products, and while in such tragedies you would lose the products, by using our services it means you have a backup of those photos and the artwork we created for your product in most cases as we store all work files for an unlimited time (sometimes beyond our control we are not able to access files due to harddrive or media malfunctions) meaning that you can replace the products and not all is lost in the disaster.

Which brings me to what I have been working on over the Christmas/New Year period - and I am very excited to realease the new 2011 Product Catalogue.

Boots Creative + The Coffee Table Book have a huge variety of products to choose from to display your photos, whether you like the traditional matted album, a more contemporary magazine-style wedding album, coffee table books with a designer edge, art for your walls or desks, or presentation boxes filled with matted or un-matted prints, there is heaps to choose from.  We have personally hand picked the highest quality and unique products from local and international manufacturers to give you the largest collection of photographic display products anywhere. These products cannot be accessed by the direct public, usually only through professional photographers, so we are thrilled to be able to get these products to you so you too can display your photos in a professional manner. 

There is lots to choose from and its understandable if you become overwhelmed at trying to compare products, but we are here to help break down the differences, so if you have any questions we are either a click of the mouse or phone call away.  Email us at info@thecoffeetablebook.com.au or phone our Brisbane office 07 3102 1907.

While we are based in Brisbane, we service clients all over Australia and international clients as well. Location is no barrier with the internet as all artwork proofing is done online.

Without further adue you can download our 2011 Product Catalogue here.

We are currently updating both our website www.thecoffeetablebook.com.au and blog www.bootscreative.com.au so please bear with us while we update the sites with our new products and our portfolio of work, however, the 2011 Product Catalogue is quite extensive with information and prices so should answer most of your questions, if not just give us a call.

Testimonial | Wedding Book Design | Ronelle + Tjaart


Dear Deborah,

Thank you so much for producing an album of such high quality. Ronelle and I were after a wedding album with a wow factor, and our search has ended at Boots Creative.

We were both very happy with your professionalism and the end product. Additionally, we were also very impressed with the slideshow that you put together during the design process.

We look forward to be able to share this album with our friends and family, and one day to be able to look back on it with great memories.

From 2 very happy customers,
Tjaart and Ronelle

Web Design | Ice Hairdressing website

Wow its hard keeping up with blogging and I think I missed this one.  A little while ago, Boots Creative designed a website for Ice Hairdressing and we are continuing to enhance their web presence and marketing on a monthly basis with a newsletter and through Facebook.

When I first met Bevan Hoyle the owner of Ice Hairdressing ( well we realised we had previously met, he popped in on one of my fashion shoots under Boots Photography because one of his hairdressers was working on the shoot ), anyway Bevan explained he was very fussy and particular.  Im proud to say that he was extremely happy with the end result and that it represents his salon perfectly - so either we are both fussy and particular, or more like we just have the same tastes.  Bevan is the dream client !

I popped into the salon the other day (oh yeah - because I was so impressed with the service they offer, Im now a client of Ice Hairdressing ) - Bevan was telling me he attended a Marketing Seminar specifically catered to the Hair Industry, and they used his business and website to demonstrate he was doing everything right and basically said he has wasted his money attending. Its great hearing feedback such as this, and nice when clients hear from an independent source, what they have been provided with was the right decision and working for them correctly.

Anyway take a look at the site and see what you think ... and dont forget to book an appointment at Ice Hairdressing as you will get the total pamper session from Bevan and the girls. 
PS. make sure you ask for flavouring in your coffee !!
