I’m so excited to share some photos of my new sample album from Laura & Shane’s wedding this fall! It’s absolutely stunning and it’s HUGE. 80 pages of brilliant images are perfectly bound with cork end paper in the front and in the back. The cover and matching slip case are a very soft black leather with blind imprinting. It’s stunning, but simple enough that their images are what stand out the most. Very cool!

Wedding Albums

Albums are my favorite part of each wedding. From the first click of my shutter on your wedding day, I’m trying to capture moments as they happen and build a story-telling narrative. One of the most powerful ways of telling a story is through still photography, using multiple images paired together. Think of a single image as a paragraph. Just as the most compelling writing demands building a flow from each sentence and paragraph to the next, so do images and pages of wedding albums. Building this flow demands careful choices to determine which images work with each other to become a cohesive paragraph that tells your story. This is not an easy thing to do, but it is what makes wedding albums great.

So much information is shared online these days. That’s great! But a wedding album is real; you can get it out to show to friends, family and even take it to work. There is something that’s just exciting about turning the pages of your album for the first time, your album filled with your stories and your memories.

I wanted to share a few photos of Holly & Clay’s stunning Fine Art Album. Impact-full images are paired with clean, elegant design and an eye popping cover. The pages of my Fine Art Albums have a creamy matte finish that feels like silk. This album ended up with 23 spreads. Follow the link at the bottom of the post to see the entire album.

New Wedding Albums

I just got these killer wedding albums in! The first is a Fine Art album, and the matte pages feel silky and smooth. Images just fly off of the bright white pages and I really like the lack of gutter between the two pages. It’s perfect for designing full spreads! To me, design is about letting the images communicate clearly. I put a lot of time into editing and choosing what images work best with each other to tell a compelling and truthful story. The end result is stunning, simple and timeless.

The second type of album is a Flush Mount. This is a two tone Japanese book with a cloth cover. The texture of the fabric feels great, and the pages are just a little thicker than the Fine Art Album. Choosing the right album for each wedding is a lot of fun. Rose and Ben’s Whistler, BC wedding had a down to earth and friendly vibe. This album really matches with their personalities.

I’ll be getting quite a few more albums in soon, so I’ll post those as they come in!
