My New Favorite Album...

So my friend and June bride - Meagan - finally got to see her wedding album this past weekend. After several months of looking for the perfect vendor and designing the perfect layout for her photos, the completed project arrived in the mail. This was my first album design and my first product order from from my new photo lab - so I was super excited to see the result. And they did not disappoint! I love this album so much I'm seriously contemplating buying my own copy to show my future brides! But for now - here's some pictures of the album to give an idea of what it looks like (though the pictures really don't compare to holding this book in your hands.)

I decided to take pictures of the book in the room I normally meet with my brides and potential clients in. So you're getting a sneak peek at the room and the photo album - there on the coffee table.

The cover of this book is really neat. It is printed on a metallic paper that gives a sheen a glow to the image. **sigh** I just love it!


These books come in set page numbers of 20, 40, & 60. Meagan's book has 40 pages. Which really felt like the right number to create a really nice flow.

Each page is printed on high quality paper and then mounted to matboard to add extra thickness and sturdiness to each page. This book is also what is known as a lay-flat album, which basically means it's designed to be able to lay flat open and it won't do any damage to the binding of the book.

All the images in Meagan's book are pictures I took at her wedding in June. I also laid out all the pages myself as well. The whole process of designing Meagan's book probably took me between 12 and 18 hours. Below you can see a sampling of some of the pages.






So there you have it! One of my all time favorite products. If you are interested in having an album designed from your wedding photography - feel free to send me an email or give me a call and we can discuss the details.

Happy Veterans Day! :)
