WOW! I absolutely LOVE this album. The black cover and amazing black pages (with different textures) and subtle color design elements really set off both the black and white photographs as well as the color images – especially with all the great red accents throughout. Christina and Evan, nice choices my friends! I wish you could all see this in person, but alas, the blog will have to suffice:
 

 
Christina’s parents ordered almost the exact opposite of this album: cream cover, cream pages. It’ll be really clean and fresh, and totally different. I’ll definitely share that once it’s ready, too!

In addition to the albums we also made some beautiful color and black and white Fine Art Prints, too. The black and whites were done on gorgeous German watercolor paper and also a metallic, glossy paper. Both have to be seen to really be appreciated, but they really emphasized the dramatic beauty of Christina and Evan’s amazing Pasadena City Hall wedding. There’s nothing better than presenting your wedding photographs in a way that set them apart as art that will last a lifetime (and then some!).

It took Jane and Brett quite a while to make their album image selections, but I’m excited that they now have a new family heirloom – a killer, 100 image custom wedding album! They kept the outside simple: black, one photo on the front, one photo on the back and no titles on the spine or cover. On the inside, they departed from tradition and went with the lighter feel of pastel pages chosen specifically to compliment any given page’s photographs.
 

Brett’s mom had us put together a nice little 20 image album for her, too. I love that she chose a totally different cover color because it would work better in her home this way:

It has been awesome working with you, Jane and Brett and I wish you guys nothing but happiness!

Despite the fact that they live in Arizona (!), Malea and Pat wanted to have their wedding on the beach out here in beautiful Ventura, California! They got married right on the sand at a cute, little venue called The Yellow Umbrellas. We were able to do a lot of fun photography on the beach and at the Ventura Pier. I can’t complain about working barefoot on the California coast!

Rachel and Keith got married at their home church in Oxnard, CA before heading over to Saticoy Country Club, in beautiful Somis, CA, in Keith’s grandfather’s sweet black Thunderbird. Here are some beautiful wedding day portraits of this awesome couple:

It’s almost as pretty as what’s inside… ALMOST.

I’m excited to share with you that one of my landscape photographs of the Racetrack Playa in Death Valley was published by Travel + Leisure in their story America’s Most Mysterious Places. Below is the image they chose to feature:

You may remember that I blogged about this 2007 Death Valley trip back in January. To see more photos from the trip, click here.
