This timeline starts when the bridesmaids are suppose to be ready for pictures and capturing the bride getting into her dress. The first timeline is for a Traditional Wedding schedule.

Waiting for the fedex man!!!

My dogs don't really like it when people walk by THEIR window or knock on THEIR door... So when I saw the fedex man pull up I ran to the door... It might have been the first time I ever beat them to the door!!! Its here!! one of two of my sample albums! I love them!!! I was just in shock at the size of the box that it came it!!! I can't wait to share these with my clients. I used Danny & Angelys engagement pictures. Their pictures were showcased in a 20x8 album! The album is a horizontal flip-book style! super huge, trendy and amazing! I love them all!!! Feel free to message me with any questions any time.. Kimbrrlee@mac.com

Danny and Angelys :: Keepsake Guest Book

Now this is cute.. This is one of my albums for the reception. You could either have all your guest sign your boring regular guest book. or you could take your AMAZING engagement photos that I took and I could make your fabulous modern guest book filled with your beautiful engagement photos and BAM you have a beautiful modern guest book. You guest will get to enjoy all your engagement pictures. You also have two options to choose from ::

1.) Just a bunch of pictures of you being all fabulous with area's for your guest to just sign around

-or-

2.) You could make it interactive with questions for your guest to sign around. such as... why are Danny and Angelys perfect for each other? What is the secret to marriage? Love is never having too....

So either way you will get something amazing and fun for your guest to sign and lets face It.... It's just a beautiful keepsake. I mean other than the amazing wall portraits for your wall :)

Here's an example of the album ::

























See now you all just have to have one! :)

Cover Cut-Outs VS. Indentations

cut-outs are the traditional option for an album cover where a window is cut out of the cover material and the cover prints are slipped in underneath

cover indentions are a modern way of presenting a cover image where the indentation is about [1/32nd of and inch deep] is pressed into the cover material and the image is placed flat in the indentation and set in place. - not available on all materials and cover designs. 

As part of the page styling package, you have your choice of ultra thin, magazine style pages or our standard pages. Your choice of page style can be a majoring factor when you start to consider the number of pages in your album.

albums over 11x14 or the a capacity exceeding 20 leaves/40 sides will look better when built with magazine style pages. There is less overall weight, less stress on the spine and are generally easier to handle. 

There is absolutely no difference in page quality with regards to the printing as both page styles are printed on quality with regards to the printing as both page styles are printed on quality photographic paper. the only difference is the actual page thickness

[above] Print VS. Cut print style

This is an option that is more of personal style and look but can limit some of your other choices

Creased print style is preferred by many who would rather that 'panoramic' look while cut print is a tired and true classic standard. 

Creased prints, however, are a MUST if you are working with magazine style, thin pages.

This is not really a choice as it is dependent on your page style option. It is important to know, however, that if you prefer one style over the other, this may limit your page style choice and in some cases your spine style option as well.
