I had to share how beautiful they were with the world! (Fashion albums, for those not familiar with my lingo, are leather bound albums with thick archival matteboard pages and the photos are printed directly onto the page. Each album is custom designed by us for you, so the design reflects how amazing your wedding was.)

This was a 12x12 40-page fashion album. The angle here really shows off the pattern in the leather. So different!

the second album with two different leathers and a photo cutout on the front. It was a detail from the hotel that they loved (a little wire bird)

The back of the album... this album was a 10x16, which complemented the horizontal photos well.

because the pages are large (the book opens to 10x32) you can really have a "wow" photo take up a whole page and make a statement

close up on the dancing page... we usually keep the layouts clean with a lot of white space, but the dancing pages are filled with photos. It's a design trick to show the busy-ness of the night!

I recently met with the fabulous Emilie from Pink Orchid Weddings (see fav links!) and she was so wowed by our albums that she urged me to post more of them here! So, thanks Emilie, and enjoy everyone else :)

The cover is a green metallic. It's super hot and modern
