Yay! I finally had my new line of Flush Mount albums arrive. I have been really excited about working with this new album company. After spending all that time on creating, designing and laying out an album for a couple, I really wanted to have the final product to be as high quality and customizable as possible. I want them to reflect my client’s styles. Gone are the days of only having a plain black album to choose from (not that there is anything wrong with that!). IN are colors, textures, leathers, silks, near limitless combinations and great attitude. Can’t wait to work/play with this company more. You can see the layout of the inside of this book here.
These are all of a 10×10 album with a two tone leather choice, cut out inlaid photo cover and indented text.. Joe and Harley got married what feels like ages ago and I am kind of glad they waited until I partnered up with this new vendor. Now perhaps I will be inspired to create my own… When free time rains down on my side of Providence that is.

New Albums!
How to look great in Photographs
I stumbled across this video a little bit ago and thought I would share. Part of me thinks that videos like this are just another way to make people feel more uncomfortable in front of the camera. For many of us, thinking about the angle at which our head is tilting or where we are balancing our weight, makes us feel (and look) confused or uptight. Most of my favorite photos of myself and those I have taken of others are when the subject is obviously not thinking about any of the below mentioned tips but are in the moment having a good time. BUT some of you are planners and feel more comfort in somehow planning for a photo session. They are also a few good tips in here if you are having some snapshots taken of you at a family picnic and want to feel you have more control over the outcome that will likely be blasted all over facebook.
its a Wrap
One of the problems of being a photographer is that I have few actual prints of my family. Lots of images live on my computer, but I really have to work to get photos up on the wall. Something always takes precedence. The Gallery Wrap is something I have been offering to my clients for a while and love but never got around to creating some for our home. I so adore these photos of the kids and the cutest daddy I could find.
I like the dimensionality it gives to our living room wall. I also had one printed of Dunes during her first kite flying experience. I think I should have gone bigger.
