Here are a few pages of an album that I worked on for John Riedy - this bride specifically wanted a layered look - and lots of images.

This, I think, one of my favorite albums that I’ve worked on with Meg & Charles (Meg Baisden Photography.) I’ll have to post some others that I adore … but in the meantime … here are a few pages for our latest beach wedding for Brandy & Russell. Brandy has the most amazing eyes - […]

This is one of the first albums that I designed for Ben Chrisman Photography of New Mexico. He’s a destination wedding shooter who … frankly … his work just knocks my socks off!! This album was from a wedding in Mexico. It features lots of warm steamy colors and a bold modern design. (Check out […]
