What Do Our Wedding Albums Look Like? I'm Glad You Asked

One of our favorite parts of shooting weddings is getting the final album ready to deliver to the newlyweds. In the age of digital photography it is easy to forget how beautiful finished prints and albums are. We were packing up Neil and Devin's album to ship to them and I took a few pictures to blog.


The outside wrapping and ribbon is made of recycled material and protects the album from dust and stuff. Plus it looks super fancy.



This cover is an orange suede called "Hollywood Orange". The 11x14 flush mount album and the 5.5x7 mini album have the same cover options. We made this one for ourselves so that we had our own copy to keep!




The mini album is an exact copy of the big book just smaller and press printed instead of chemical. They make great gifts for parents and grandparents.



The hinges are made to lay flat so they won't wear out.



Our album designs are simple and rely on the strength of big, beautiful images laid out cleanly to tell the story of a wedding.





When you get one of these bad boys in your hand it's hard to imagine why anybody would just want a disc with images on it. Those always end up in a shoe box or hard drive limbo. An album like this is something that you will cherish your whole life and pass on to your children. It's easy to lose site of quality and craftsmanship in an age where we can check our email from anywhere and talk to each other wirelessly by beaming phone calls in to outer space. Those things are definitely awesome, but it is important to remember that some of the best things in life take a little time, cost a little more money and last a whole lot longer.

Sarah and Tony - Wedding Quick Look

We had a weekend of big weddings and here is the first preview of what we were up to. This was a fun situation for us because Julie was in the bridal party. So to fill in for her the incomparable Matt Radlinski and his assistant Flash Snapman came down to shoot this wedding with me and I have to say, we nailed it. Everybody really gave their best, including the families and bridal party. We will have a whole post of the day coming soon along with our 10/10/10 wedding with Keirsten and Eric.
