We've been working with Pittsburg-based fine art wedding photographer Lauren Renée Photography for about two years now and we are smitten with her and her work! Today's featured wedding album design is drop dead gorgeous -- this modern black and white affair is one for the books and Lauren did such a great job capturing every detail and moment! We were honored to help her lay it out to tell the story in a one-of-a-kind custom heirloom album that her clients will no doubt cherish for generations to come! 
 
Lauren used our Hands-off Service so we communicated directly with her clients throughout the design and revision process that took a little over two months from start to finish. It was fun to work with Lauren and her clients to get this project over the finish line and we are so proud of the resulting design! 
 
Here are a few of our favorite spreads from this show-stopper:

Today's featured album design is one we did for New England Wedding Photographer Katie Slater. This wedding took place at Rosecliff Mansion in Newport, Rhode Island, and we are so impressed with how Katie documented this grand event! 
 
Of note -- this design was completed start to finish in 2 weeks AND those two weeks spanned the Christmas and New Year's holidays. Katie ordered our Hands-off Service and we communicated directly with her clients throughout the process. Katie's clients were VERY responsive and we were able to get an initial design and two full revision rounds completed in that time. Since then, we have also been honored to work on two parent album designs for this same wedding, both of which were completed very efficiently as well. 
 
We cannot get enough of Katie's stunning work! This clean and simple design really showcases her incredible photography and tells the story of this wedding day in such a compelling way. Enjoy a few of our favorite spreads from this design:

Today's featured album design is one we did for the talented Annie Ryan Photography! We've worked with Annie for about 4 years now and just adore her work! 
 
For this particular album, Annie ordered exactly 15 spreads and sent us 50 images for the design with the request that we use them all. Now, it doesn't ALWAYS work well when a photographer asks us to "use all" of the images for a design. Sometimes that can turn into a situation where we are trying to put together the pieces of the puzzle and they just don't seem to fit. But in this case, it DID work well, namely because: 
 
1 -- Annie sent an appropriate number of images for the number of spreads she ordered. 
2 -- The image choices were intentional & went together really well. She did not send any one-off random images. 
3 -- The editing was very consistent throughout which lends to an aesthetically cohesive design. 
 
So the design came together VERY well and as a result the clients approved the initial design with NO CHANGES! That is always a high-five WIN for everyone involved -- the couple, the photographer and the design team! 
 
Here are a few of our favorite spreads from this stunning design:

Brace yourself! We have a drop-dead GORGEOUS album design to show off to you today! Michigan based luxury wedding photographer Nathan Johnston of J&N Studios photographed this stunner and we had a blast working with his images to tell the story of the day in a heirloom wedding album for the couple.  
About 95% of the albums we design are SQUARE albums, but this one is horizontal. Horizontal albums provide a unique opportunity in that there is a little more real estate for film-strip layouts like the one below. And they just seem to lend themselves really well to storytelling. So without further ado, feast your eyes on this beauty...and make sure you click through the full slideshow of the design at the bottom of this post! It's well worth it!

Check out this GORGEOUS album that we had the pleasure of designing for Wyoming based wedding photographer Cassie Madden! We have designed over 50 albums for Cassie over the years, and it's always a treat to work with her and her images! Cassie is one of our beloved Client Advocates and is always happy to share her knowledge and experience with other photographers. Click here to watch a short video where Cassie shares about how she made the leap to serving high-end clients through albums! So fascinating! 
 
This particular design was approved by Cassie's clients with NO CHANGES! We always do a happy dance when that happens because it means we nailed the initial design! Cassie was so kind to send us some photos of the printed Miller's Lab album. Check out the blind debossing on distressed leather -- so perfect:

And here are some of our favorite spreads from this stunning design:
