This album design was a DREAM to create.  
 
1 -- Stunning images by Oregon and Seattle-based Rick Andrew Baleros of Iron & Rye  
2 -- Rick sent us only his very favorite images and gave us the freedom to select what did and did not fit. 
3 -- Rick GIFTED this album to the client! How sweet!? We loved being a part of that! 
 
Do you offer engagement albums? I feel like they should be more of a thing!  
 
This album was also printed by us as an Align Legacy Book -- 8x8 with thin pages and a linen cover -- and ended up costing Rick less than $100 to print. So super-affordable for an engagement album! 
 
Here are a few of our favorite spreads from this stunning design:

Santa Barbara-based Sarah Ellefson photographed this sweet wedding at Los Poblanos -- a historic inn and organic farm located in Albuquerque, New Mexico. This was a destination wedding for the couple who travelled in from Austin, Texas, and Sarah knew that they loved the location so much that she made sure we featured it throughout the pages of the album design. She also requested that we design additional spreads beyond the 15 that the couple included in their package because she knew they would be interested in ordering more. And they did! The final design included 19 spreads and was printed as a 10x10 Align Legacy Book with thick pages and a Metropolitan Linen cover with silver foil debossing.  
 
We are so grateful to Sarah for sending us these images of the printed album! Here are a few of our favorite spreads:

We've had the pleasure of working with Maryland-based photographer Eli Turner for 3 years now and have designed close to 50 albums for him. This one rates as one of our all time favorites! The ceremony and reception took place in the historic Andrew Mellon Auditorium which added so much drama to the album design! Eli did an incredible job capturing the location, the couples' joy and the fun of this event! 
 
Eli had this album printed by Sage Wedding Albums and was kind enough to send us these beautiful photos of the finished album!

Michelle Ray is a Dallas-based wedding photographer who specializes in eco-ethical/green weddings. She recently collaborated with a team of vendors to produce a vegan styled shoot to inspire her ideal clients and we were honored to create a sample album design for her to show off her stunning work! 
 
In addition to designing this album, we also printed it! Michelle chose our beautiful Metropolitan Linen and ordered a 12x12 Align Legacy Book with thin pages. It turned out so pretty! We can't thank Michelle enough for sending these beautiful images our way!

Here are a few of our favorite spreads from this design featuring florals and tables capes by Campbell Events:

We have had the pleasure of designing 50 albums for Scott Clark since 2014. Scott is based out of California but travels worldwide photographing the most beautiful weddings. We feel so honored that he entrusts us to work with his stunning images and layout his albums for his clients! 
 
This album design for Helen & Steven was also altered into two different parent albums. Scott used strategy #2 from our strategies for designing parent albums and made use of unused revision rounds to design the parent albums. He ended up using 4 rounds total to design all three albums and saved on costs in the process! 
 
We truly adore how this design turned out. Here are a few of our favorite spreads (it was so hard to pick!!):
