The album came with this lovely floral case, I store it inside whenever I don't have it out to show it off to protect our big investment from accidental damage.
I decided to order the 12X12 with a black leather cover, and it's HUGE. It's beautiful, but I think if I could do it over I would scale it down in size.
The front page. I'm so glad Kelli Nicole took the time to take detail and establishing shots, as this shot of the Seattle skyline really sets the stage for the rest of the album.
I chose not to have any overlapping images or graphic elements in my design as I wanted things to be very clean and simple. It took me hours to narrow down thousands of images to just over 100, but I think those that I chose tell the story of the day really well.
My favorite part of the album? The full page spreads. At two feet wide they are absolutely stunning to view in person. The quality of Kelli Nicole's photography really helps as well. :)
A few details...
The book lays flat when opened, and the small fold in the middle is hardly noticeable.
Any my favorite, a yummy super-soft leather cover.
I'll leave you with my favorite spread. Stunning, right?
Did you order an album through your photographer? Do you have any suggestions for companies non-photographers can use to get their album done?
