{Products} Sarah + Austin's Engagement Album

Sarah and Austin's engagement album is simply stunning! Most of our couples opt for one, either to use as a guest book or to simply preserve the memories of their engagement. Either way, they're awesome!

We had a fabulous time a few weeks ago at the Bridal Expo in Wichita, and will be at the show at the Salina Central Mall from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. tomorrow. Stop by to say howdy! :)

With all of the behind the scenes work going on around here, I neglected to share some recent engagement album designs! Our proofing software has changed a bit and I won't be sharing the entire album, but you can see a favorite page from Sarah + Austin's session/album (above) and Dani + Devon's session/album (below).

We still have some room in our 2013 calendar for wonderful couples/weddings. Please cruise over to our Website and contact us to schedule a complimentary consultation so we can visit more about your upcoming wedding! :)

{Engagement Album Design} Brittany + Cory

We had SO MANY amazing photos to choose from for Brittany and Cory's engagement album ... our designer, Amy, did an amazing job putting this one together!

{Wedding Album Design} Alex + Seth

Alex + Seth's wedding album design is simply FABULOUS and I'm excited to share it with you today!

Timeless beauty!

{Wedding Album Design} Emily + Joe

I'm excited that Emily and Joe's wedding album design is ready to share!

There were so many beautiful details and moments, it was really a task to narrow it down for this fabulous album.

{Wedding Album Design} Kristi + Cody

I'm so excited to share Kristi and Cody's wedding album design today!

It's been fun to take visual elements from their Save the Date Cards and Engagement Album and tie them into their wedding album design.
Take a peek:

{Engagement Album Design} Kim + Tim

Woah! Two album designs to share in one week. We're on a roll around here! :)


Today's installment is Kim + Tim. I'm loving all over this album cover, I gotta say!


Pulling the elements into the design. This will be used as their guest book, and it's fabulous!


The whole she-bang.

{Wedding Album Design} Serena + Luke

YAY!!!! Serena + Luke's wedding album design looks fabulous! So excited to share it with you today!

{Wedding Album Design} Jessica + Ryan

Aaaaah, this is a beautiful wedding album!


Our designer, Amy, used the same rounded edges and graphical elements from Jessica + Ryan's engagement album in their wedding album. I love all over it.


Aaaand, some awesome party times!

{Wedding Album Design} Caty + Tyler

It's time to share Caty + Tyler's wedding album design!


I love including personal touches in wedding albums ... and we all knew the fire house would make an appearance! :)

{Wedding Album Design} Ashley + Tyson

Ahhh, I just love looking at wedding album designs! Today we're sharing Ashley + Tyson's.


Ashley had a plethora of beautiful little details, and when I took these photos of the girls' purses and necklaces, I didn't know how they'd be presented in the final album. But I knew they'd be awesome.

I'll add the full design at the bottom of this post once we tweak a few tiny details. So be sure to check back! :)

{Wedding Album Design} Lindsey + Shiloh

We're really booking it around here! Today here's a peek from Lindsey and Shiloh's wedding album design. It's super-stellar! Once we nail down some final cover details, I'll add a link on this post.

I just love it when we can tie in graphic elements from a couple's invitations ... we used some in their engagement album and are now doing the same in their wedding album. Visual continuity. Gotta love it! :)

{Wedding Album Design} Deanne + Carlos

Aaaaah, wedding season is in the air!

Today's serving: Deanne + Carlos' wedding album design.

Our designer used some of the graphical elements from their engagement album design on a few of the pages. The same graphic was on their invitation, so it gives nice visual continuity.


Too beautiful!

We're tweaking with the album cover/font/names, so once that gets nailed down, I'll addd the slideshow of the design here. Stay tuned! :)

{Engagement Album Design} Christina + Nick

We're kicking into high gear around here!

Tonight's tasty tidbit: Christina and Nick's engagement album! I can hardly wait to see it used as a guest book in their wedding in a few weeks. :)

{Products} Jessica + Ryan's Engagement Album

I am LOVING our new album boutique bags for our albums. They're fantastic! :)


I'm also digging the design from Jessica and Ryan's engagement album.


The album integrates this beautiful graphical element the pair used on their Christmas Cards. Around here, we're dorks for visual continuity. (Also in this photo, you can see the beautiful texture of the watercolor paper).


Even a little nod to it on the edges of some of the pages.

I had the joy of delivering this to Jessica in person last week, and it was a pleasure to watch one of our blushing brides open up their album. :)

{Engagement Album Design} Serena + Luke

Every one of our couples brings individual preferences and requests to the table. For Serena and Luke's engagement album/guest book, Serena wanted quotes and notes they wrote to each other over the course of their dating and engagement, as well as a favorite scripture verse to be included in the album.

Here's their album design:


It's true, I've traveled for a few engagement sessions, but Serena had Jennifer Schumacher from Colorado do an engagement session almost the second they got engaged. :) Jennifer graciously allowed us to include some of the Colorado photos in Serena and Luke's engagement album/guest book. Thanks a ton, Jennifer!

{Engagement Album Design} Jessica + Ryan

Today's installment of engagement album design is from Jessica and Ryan.

Our graphic designer Amy likes to keep pushing her design envelope, so for this one, you'll notice nice rounded photo edges. I'm crazy in love with it. :)

{Engagement Album Design} Jillian + Drew

Strap on your seatbelts, folks, because it's engagement album season!

Today: Jillian + Drew. You might remember them from their super-fun engagement session in Kearney, Nebraska.

With just a few short months until the wedding, I can hardly wait. :)

{Engagement Album Design} Kristi + Cody

Following with a graphical element used on Kristi and Cody's Save the Dates, our awesome designer also used the element in their engagement guest book.

As I'm taking engagement portraits, I tell the couple the photos will probably be played across the page from one another, but Amy always outdoes herself. Seriously, using the element on that page blew me away!

We're trying a new system of proofing albums. Our hope is that it will make the process easier for our couples. So you may enjoy the slideshow/proof below. :)

{Wedding Album Design} Andrea + Larry

As former photojournalists, Mike and I love a good story. When we spied Larry in cahoots with one of the bridesmaids during their wedding rehearsal, we went to see what was going on. And our nosing in worked!

We found out Larry was going to sing a special song for Andrea. But Andrea knew nothing about the song. It was a complete surprise. So we found out when he'd be breaking into song, and figured out the best locations to be .... and really nailed Andrea's shocked reaction! :) (Yes, Andrea. We confess, we knew. But because we wanted it to be a complete surprise, we didn't breathe a word. Hope you won't hold it against us!).
