A New Album!

I'm so excited to introduce a new album into my collection!  The book is completely different than the other two albums I offer as it has more of a modern coffee table book feel.  It's a hardback book with photos printed directly onto the pages with bright archival inks and matte (or glossy) pages.  These books are perfect for creating a truly custom book, and they'd be a great choice for guest sign-in albums for all of your engagement photos (stay tuned for a guest sign in as the next sample).  It's made by Vision Art Books, and for my first sample, I outsourced the design to Brandon Peterson of The Album Design.  I plan to use Brandon for all of my album designs from now on since I am not a designer and it takes me sooooo much longer for me to design books.  Brandon did an incredible job, and I love his clean, crisp style!  I created the sample from Ashley and Adam's lovely San Francisco wedding last fall.

All the album photos were taken by Adm.

Albums and Folios

_MG_9674 As my wedding shooting has slowed down a bit for the moment, I've been designing some albums, and have decided to post samples of albums and folios.  For my albums, I offer Cypress and Laguna albums, both beautiful books made by two different companies to offer two completely different looks.  The Laguna albums are made with man-made leather, and the pages are printed on photo paper, laminated and mounted to mat boards for a heavy-weight page similar to a child's picture book.  The Cypress albums are made from Japanese bookbinding fabric and silk ribbon, and the photo prints are permanently matted into the pages.  The album comes in an elegant presentation box for further protection.  Additionally, Cypress makes folios that are lovely gifts for members of the bridal party and parents.  As a fun side note, Cypress is based in Glendale, my home town!

Here are the Laguna albums:
