Pacific Riviera coast of Panama Wedding Album Design for Ruben Parra

Album Designs

Ruben Parra is a luxury wedding photographer based out of Panama and Miami, Florida. We've working with Ruben and his incredible images for over two years now and we are always transported by his international wedding work, like the wedding in today's featured design that took place on the Pacific Riviera coast of Panama. 
 
The wedding was an extraordinary event, held outdoors at a private residence. With over 400 guests, the atmosphere was both intimate and grand. The elegant décor in white and green perfectly complemented the natural surroundings, creating a serene yet sophisticated ambiance. The couple wanted to blend modern elements with a timeless feel, and the design did just that, seamlessly integrating the beautiful coastal landscape. 
 
Ruben's clients expect a lot of images in their albums. He always sends a bit more than typical for the spread number but it works well because he orders large horizontal albums. This album was finalized with 26 spreads (52 pages). Horizontal albums tend to handle more images per spread without looking too cluttered. Ruben gravitates toward spread that include a large focal image paired with a collage of supporting images. We loved the focal point images from the reception of this wedding and designed the album to really showcase them well! 
 
This design was approved with ZERO revision requests which is a win for all! From order to file delivery, this design was wrapped up in just 10 days! 
 
Ruben shared these insights into the design process: 
 
"The design process for the album was incredibly smooth, thanks to your team's expertise. The couple's vision of a modern yet elegant album was beautifully executed. I loved how the layout allowed for large spreads that showcased both the emotional moments and the grand scale of the event. The flexibility and attention to detail from the designer made it easy to create something that truly reflected the couple's day and their connection to their family and friends. 
 
As for myself, I'm deeply passionate about capturing not only the big moments but also the emotions and details that make each wedding unique. My approach combines artistic photography with a documentary/editorial style, so the images not only tell the story but also evoke the feelings of the day. This wedding was special because of the couple's deep love and the way their joy was shared with so many guests, which truly shines through in the photos." 
 
So incredible! Ruben was kind enough to send us some photos of the printed Dreambooks album. Here they are along with some of our favorite spreads from this stunning design!
