If you've been around these parts for very long, you already know that we're HUGE Jean Smith fans. We have designed over 150 albums for the Michigan-based photographer and she is ridiculously talented.  
 
Jean is also one of our beloved Client Advocates. Click here to watch a short video where Jean shares two mistakes that she regrets making when she started her business. She is such an inspiration to us -- every time we get a new wedding from Jean, we are picking our jaws up off the floor. 
 
This wedding is another feast for the eyes. The venues -- both the Orthodox church for the ceremony, and the golf club for the reception -- are full of character. And everything about this couples' style oozes class. 
 
Here are a few of our favorite spreads from this design:

DC-based wedding photographer Christina Joy does something incredible -- she gifts all of her clients a surprise 4x4 min album with images from their engagement shoot! Of course they fall in love with it (and her) and then end up EXPERIENCING the power of an album. What an incredible idea for getting more albums into your clients' hands! 
 
Christina shares: 
Working with Align Album Design streamlines this process for me by consistently creating beautiful album designs. We photographed Emma & James' engagement session at the National Mall in Washington, DC and Kari did such a beautiful job with this design! 
 
Since she knew this printed album was going to be very small -- only 4x4 -- Kari purposefully kept the design very simple -- employing our SIMPLE design style which only uses 1-4 images per spread.

Guess how many albums we've had the pleasure of designing for Virginia-based wedding photographer Katelyn James in the past 10 years??  
 
126. 
 
Nutso! We're probably not suppose to play favorites, but Katelyn is definitely on our favorites list! We owe her a world of gratitude because she has sent so many photographers our way by sharing about how she integrates us in her workflow through all her educational resources and courses. If you are needing help for anything photo or business-related, you should definitely check out all she has to offer here!  
 
And if you're interested in hearing a little about Katelyn's journey with albums and what caused her to start outsourcing even though she LOVED designing her own albums, check out this video: 
 
 
 
Here are some of our favorite spreads from the most recent design we created for Katelyn:

We have had the pleasure of working with Pennsylvania and Charleston, South Carolina fine art wedding photographer Meghan Baskin for a year now and boy are we lucky! Her work is so inspiring and just stunning! We are so excited to share an album we created for her clients today!  
 
This wedding took place in Pennsylvania, but from looking at the photos, you might be convinced it took place at a beautiful chateau in the countryside of France. What a lovely venue Hotel du Village in Bucks County, Pennsylvania makes!  
 
Without further adieu (see what we did there?), here are some of our favorite spreads from this stunning design:

Palm Beach wedding photographer Morgan O'Neil is an all-star when it comes to selling albums! In 2022 we designed 22 albums for her and her clients!! Amazing! If you are curious how she does it, click here to see what Morgan shared with us about how she sells 80% of her clients albums year over year. We've been working with her since 2019 and are huge fans to say the least! 
 
Today's featured album design is a dream! From the bride's lace gown, to the picturesque ocean-front location, to the grand fireworks display to cap off the night, this wedding was such a fun one to work on. Every wedding deserves to be honored with an heirloom album that will tell the couples' love story to the generations to come and we are so honored that we got the chance to be a part of creating this one!
