ADESSO ALBUMS - Instant Gratification That Goes On Forever


November 24, 2003 - We all strive to "live in the moment" but now those special moments can live forever. Introducing the patented Adesso Album, the world's FIRST instant photo guest book®. Able to capture both images and feelings as the moment happens, the album has a classic, elegant design making it perfect to commemorate every occasion.

When Lesley Mattos, Founder and CEO of Adesso Albums, created her first album it was an act of love for a friend in Tuscany. Lesley was asked to take Polaroid pictures of all the wedding guests and tape them in an album where the guests could then write a note to the bride and groom beside their picture.

"The beautifully bound album was lovely to begin with but it became lumpy and ugly and homemade-looking when all the photos were in it. I decided there must be a better way," said Mattos.

Thus began Adesso Albums. Adesso means "now" in Italian, and though the first Adesso Albums were marketed to capture the "now" of weddings, it has quickly become obvious that they are perfect for so much more. The albums are covered in custom dyed Japanese silk with 30 archival pages, die cut to frame a photo taken with Polaroid 600 Instant Film. Each leaf has ample room to write a message only your moment can inspire, and the privacy of the Polaroid makes the albums the ultimate way to record your wedding, honeymoon, prom, baby shower or commencement.

Adesso Albums offers an exclusive "Begin Now" kit that can be ordered directly from the Adesso website at www.adessoalbums.com. This convenient package comes with the new Polaroid One camera, two (2) twin packs of 600 film with 40 exposures and an Adesso Album for any occasion in a variety of colors. It is the perfect combination to start capturing your moments NOW. From birthdays to bar mitzvahs, weddings to anniversaries, just take your private, funny or intimate photos, slide them into the special frame and write your feelings "in the moment."

Wedding and event planners from around the world are already finding out how perfect the Adesso Album is for every occasion. Bill Tansey, Events Designer from New York sings their praises, "I am always looking for something new and wonderful for my brides. These Adesso Albums are IT! Imagine, taking all the romance of your wedding day with you on your honeymoon!"

From Florence, Italian wedding planner, Valentina Moneglia, recommends Adesso Albums to blushing brides the world over for giving them "the exact immediate wedding memento that they have been looking for and were unable to find."

And during the holiday season, friends and family will enthusiastically participate in the creation of this very special gift. Recipients will be touched, and through the pictures and notes from friends and family, feel connected to all of the events.

Adesso Albums are making their way onto the shelves of better gift and stationery stores around the country but to view the complete line of products you can access their Website at www.adessoalbums.com
