 I want to create imagery in moments that feel like you. With the utmost intention in everything I do, this experience should feel like yours. 

Pour a glass of wine and stay a while, won't you?

A wedding album is much more than just a photo album; it is a tangible, timeless memento of your wedding day. It holds the memories of your special day, allowing you to relive the moments and emotions of the day over and over again. From your first look, to the joyous exchange of vows, to your first dance as husband and wife, each image captures the memories and emotion from the day. A wedding album is a beautiful way to remember and cherish your special day for years to come. The photos within the album will be something that you can look back on with fondness and nostalgia and pass down to future generations, which is why I will never stop advocating the importance of wedding albums.  

I fell in love with my family’s old photographs for this reason. When I held them it felt real — I saw a different piece of my mom and dad. I noticed the youthful smiles of my grandparents. More than that, I felt what they felt in the moments captured, and it flooded my heart with happiness. That is what I envision for all of my couples.

The Importance of Wedding Albums

A Shareable Experience

I want your photographs to live on in young hands as they get to know you by living through the moments on the best day of your life. Years from now you will look back on the album with your children and grandchildren as you both experience all the big and in-between moments from your day. 

Every couple deserves to have a stunning wedding album that preserves their story. These albums become a keepsake – a family heirloom. Wedding albums allow your stories to last forever and enable you to share them with those you love. 

Traditional Keepsake

I envision you and your partner snuggled up on a chair somewhere (like me and my hubz here), reliving all of the moments you’ve shared together on your wedding journey away from technology and distraction from your everyday lives. These moments deserve to be soaked in and relished in — not scrolled through and forgotten about, which brings me to the other benefit of investing in a wedding album – it will never go away! 

Technology is ever changing. Photos were once uploaded to CDs and USBs, and now they sit in online galleries, virtual clouds, and hard drives, which can easily get lost. Printed albums, however, have stood the test of time and can be passed on from generation to generation.  

As you flip through your album you will be transported back to that exact moment. You will remember the butterflies you had in your stomach as you walked down the aisle to your future husband, or the excitement and joy that filled the air as you exited the ceremony as husband and wife. These tangible items allow you to relive and enjoy one of the happiest moments in your life. 

Personal touch 

Personalized wedding albums are also a great way to showcase your personality. I collaborate with each couple on the colors, cover, layout, and every other detail before it ever goes to print. 

The first thing you will decide is the size of your album.  I always recommend a 10×10 or a 12×12. Once that is taken care of, you’ll choose 60-80 of your favorite images from your wedding day and send them over to me. I will use those images to start designing your album. While I work on designing your timeless album, you’ll pick the cover and debossing option.

After I’ve finalized the design, I’ll send you the design layout in an interactive format that you can view together and let me know if there are any changes. Nothing goes to print until you love it and it has your approval.  Once you give me the go ahead, your custom album is sent to print and soon it will in your hands!

Hopefully I’ve convinced you of the importance of wedding albums! It brings me so much joy to know that my couples will have carefully preserved images in a timeless album, that will allow them to showcase and re-live one of the happiest days of their lives.
