Adesso Albums® Offer Instant Gratification For Same Sex Marriages

Company to Participate in San Francisco Gay and Lesbian Wedding Expo 2004

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 10, 2004--SAN FRANCISCO--Adesso Albums, Inc. (www.adessoalbums.com) today announced its participation in the "Same Love, Same Rights" Gay and Lesbian Wedding Expo on Sunday, August 15th at the Westin St. Francis Hotel on Union Square in San Francisco. Admission to the Expo is free to the public and will feature fashion shows, music, giveaways, wine tasting and over 80 booths with GLBT-friendly wedding professionals.

The Adesso Album was conceived by Lesley Mattos when she was asked to take Polaroid photos for the guest book of friends' wedding in Italy in 2001. The instant photos and accompanying notes from guests captured the "now" (which is what "Adesso" means in Italian) of the wedding and provided her friends with the instant gratification of having a keepsake of their special day as they left the reception.

"In today's digital age, it may seem a bit retro to use a Polaroid camera," said Mattos, Founder of Adesso Albums. "But unlike digital photography, a Polaroid really does give you an instant photo, and the Adesso Album gives you the entire event – wedding, honeymoon, birthday, anniversary, retirement, birth, any milestone life event where family and friends gather to celebrate – in a beautiful keepsake, in both pictures and words, ‘now'."

Each Adesso Album is covered in custom dyed Japanese silk and is available in assorted colors with 30 archival pages, die-cut to frame 30 Polaroid photos and allows room for personal messages. The "Begin ‘Now' Kit" includes an Adesso Album, a Polaroid One camera, and 2 twin packs of Polaroid 600 film. The Adesso Ultimo is available in fine calfskin leather, with options for personalization, and the Adesso Digi will feature the same concept for digital prints, accommodating pictures straight from the printer.
