I&#8217;ve been busy producing various wedding albums and books lately. </p>
<p>Personally, I really enjoy the design process and working to produce wedding-day heirlooms for my couples. Aside from the albums I produce in-house, I&#8217;ve also built relationships with a shortlist of printing and publishing companies that allows the studio to offer a line of select products. One of the latest is a gorgeous fine-art portfolio style presentation which I&#8217;ll show in an upcoming post.</p>
<p>But, back to design. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.imagesofapromise.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/lk5-Dean-Oros-Photo.jpg" alt="" title="lk5-Dean-Oros-Photo" width="590" height="294" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1217" /></p>
<p>I design with a mix of classic and contemporary to best reflect a couple&#8217;s special day. No two designs are ever the same. Many photos end up as custom gallery-wrapped canvases or prints displayed in people&#8217;s homes. Not only are they a memory of a beautiful day, but (hopefully) are viewed as a piece of art. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.imagesofapromise.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/lk3-Dean-Oros-Photo.jpg" alt="" title="lk3-Dean-Oros-Photo" width="590" height="294" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1220" /></p>
<p>I just finished designing Liz and Kelvin&#8217;s album. They opted for the Sequoia Flush Mount album. A flush mount album is a hard-backed page album with a seamless center that lays completely flat, no matter what page is displayed. When they saw the design they wrote me right away to tell me they love the design. That makes me feel great!</p>
<p><img src="http://www.imagesofapromise.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/lk8-Dean-Oros-Photo-2.jpg" alt="" title="lk8-Dean-Oros-Photo-(2)" width="590" height="294" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1222" /></p>
<p>Included in this blog post are a few page-spreads from their album. If you&#8217;re a newlywed-to-be, this will provide you with an idea of what you can currently expect from the studio should you commission me to photograph and document your wedding day.  I know a growing number of fellow photographers read this blog. Perhaps these designs will provide you with inspiration for your couples. I hope you enjoy them! Bye for now.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For our lovely wedding couples, we make it a policy to design and deliver all of our albums and coffee table books quickly. By that we mean FAST FAST FAST!</p>
<p>As your photographer I don&#8217;t believe you should wait. We make it a policy to have your design done in 2 weeks or less. Sometimes in a week. Which means you can have a coffee table book in your hot little hands in as little as two and a half weeks.</p>
<p>As your photographer, I personally enhance the images, and do the design and layout of your books and albums. Every design is custom and unique. I photographed you, so it doesn&#8217;t make sense to me to have someone else do it. By the time you&#8217;ve made it to be in front of my cameras we&#8217;ve typically had the opportunity to spend some time together, and I now know what is important to you.</p>
<p>Following are just a few recent cover designs.&nbsp;</p>
<p><img title="LizKelvinEngagementCover" src="http://www.imagesofapromise.com/other/BlogImages/Covers/LizKelvin.jpg" alt="LizKelvinEngagementCover" width="590" height="432" /><img title="BarbMikeMidwayCover" src="http://www.imagesofapromise.com/other/BlogImages/Covers/BarbMike.jpg" alt="BarbMikeMidwayCover" width="590" height="432" /><img title="SokhaSteveAlbumCover" src="http://www.imagesofapromise.com/other/BlogImages/Covers/SokhaSteve.jpg" alt="SokhaSteveAlbumCover" width="590" height="432" /><img title="ThaliaTrevorEngagementCover" src="http://www.imagesofapromise.com/other/BlogImages/Covers/ThalTrevor.jpg" alt="ThaliaTrevorEngagementCover" width="590" height="432" /></p>
