In a past blog post, I featured a 9×9 20 page Dream engagement Album. For 2011 I’ve not only recently launched a new mobile website, added Dream Boxes to every basic wedding collection, but I’ve decided to make my albums less “busy” and design them in a way that you don’t get caught up in the graphics on each page but rather the images take center stage on every.page.  The album seen below is a 12×12 40 page Dream Album and it is STUNNING. I’m pretty good at taking photos of my albums to share online, of course, but this is really a beauty that you can’t fully appreciate unless you hold it. With 2mm pages and a flush mount design , every image is drool worth as they’re printed on a 12×24 wide spread. I LOVE my album company because their colors are vibrant and the black and white photos take on such a crisp feel. If you’re wondering what other size options you can order for your album, please visit the website and download the current pricing guide. I’d love to meet with any interested brides and show you this beauty in person

After a much anticipation on my part, my latest Dream Album sample arrived at my door step last night. I couldn’t wait to see how my latest album design looked printed and published.

I Love it!

Making the decision to change album companies after 4 yrs wasn’t easy.  I researched many companies, reviewed many samples and most of all, read many reviews from other photographers and their clients. My old books were coffeebook style and each time I sat down to design a book I was forced to limit my creativity to the  restrictions set forth by its binding. I had to be careful to not loose important part of an image in the folds of the pages so that meant I couldn’t display yummy landscape images in all their glory. My new Dream Albums change all that!  I now have the freedom to design a layout with a full 18-24 inches of beautiful images. This is what we call “flush mount.”

Here my latest sample – a  9×9 30 page Dream Album. I opted for a timeless black leatherette cover with milk core.

These albums are available for weddings, engagement sessions (guest books) and any portrait session with Keepsake Images. This particular sample is to showcase how to use your engagement session images as a guestbook. Incorporate your guests well wishes within the pages of your book by setting it out on your guest table for them to sign!  (Cost varies for different sizes/sessions so visit the Portfolio page for more information or contact me directly.)

I love the 2mm thick pages in every album. Durability means it should last for generations with proper love and care. 

See how yummy this layout is. Full display = love
