new album!

I am so excited! I have chosen a wonderful album company to make albums for my clients…and of course, only the VERY best will do!!! Yesterday I received my first sample album, and it is simply breathtaking! Seriously. So, I thought I would show it off. :)

Now, I must insert a little note here. I used images from my own wedding to design this album. As I did not get an album for my wedding, I decided to design my own. This is the album I wanted in order to showcase MY wedding day, and it is the album you can have to showcase yours!

So, any images you see inside of the album were taken by the fantastic HinkleyPhoto, not me; BUT, the design of the album is all my own brilliance. :) If you want to see it up close and personal (the leather feels like heaven, by the way….), let me know! We’ll set up an appointment to go over your album options.

This album is a 10×10 inch square album (though I’m kinda wishing I’d gone with the 12×12) covered in Forbidden Green leather, and it contains 20 two-page spreads. Delicious!

Oh, and in case you are interested in seeing EVERYTHING inside my album, check it out here.

Each album comes in a swanky protective cloth bag. I love the pattern on this one!

Yes…I chose green leather for the cover. :) The green is fresh and vibrant, which is how I remember my wedding. However, there are also other really great color choices, including your classic black.

The texture of this leather is exquisite. Very supple. Very soft. Very hard to stop stroking it!

I’m really impressed by the binding. It is clean and sturdy. Built to last, for sure.

Another look at the binding. Also, you can see here that the inside cover and first page are covered in a thick, black, linen paper. The inside back cover and last page are done this way too.

The album lays perfectly flat when open, which I LOVE! That way, any panoramic spreads, or images that straddle the seam, can be viewed in uninterrupted splendor. Oh, and the loss of images in the seam is VERY minimal. I designed this album with lots of pictures straddling the seam, and well…… they all look seamless!

Here’s an example of an image straddling the seam, and as you can see, it is beautiful!

The print quality is fabulous! The Kodak Eudora Satin paper provides vibrant colors with a lovely soft finish that will stand the test of time.

The corners. I like them. Nice and neat!

admin - Hi Alicia. You know, it's funny, but I never noticed that I didn't say who the company is! I should be shouting it from the rooftops because they are so amazing! It is Kiss Wedding Books. You can find them at www.kissweddingbooks.com Oh, and no relation to Kevin Swan, one of the owners. ;)

Alicia Hartfield - Hi--came across your blog while searching for a new album company. Who do you use? I LOVE the way your album looks!

gabriel ryan - hey melanie. it has been a while, and i just wanted to let you know that you and rich are in our hearts and prayers. and, so stoked on your book! the green rocks!!! i think being a photographer who was also a bride [or groom in my case] helps so much. some of the greats out there are single, but having been through the journey yourself, really gives you a great way to relate to any bride. rock on.

ohana photography~david & kim baxter - wow! it looks gorgeous! we want to do the same thing with our wedding photos. we too didn't get an album. seeing how beautiful it came out i think we'll get on the ball! great post!

Kevin Swan - We love our customers. We have the best customers in the world. It's our privilege to serve you. I'm so glad we could make YOUR wedding book for you. :) I'm glad you went with the green, it looks amazing. Thanks for KISSing! Kevin Swan : Simple-Minded Director
