Valentine's Day is here, and it's a big day for me and Ed - we got married on Valentine's Day last year.
Our photographer Michael Albert was absolutely great, and since it was a destination wedding, we got all images immediately - unprocessed, but looking fantastic. Michael did not want to risk traveling with all the backups of the images just on his person, so we got a couple DVDs right away, and we made a few copies for our friends to carry back in case our stuff got lost or stolen during the remainder of the trip.
When we came back after the wedding, it only took a couple of weeks to recieve the best retouched images.
I have been making prints throughout the year - some framed on the walls of our house, some pinned to the walls in my office. Since I started my official wedding photography business, I've been using our own images to test various professional labs. So far, WHCC is my favorite for large prints on specialty paper, and Mpix does a fantastic job with everyday small prints (and I love thier affordable foam core backs!)
But I digress.. this post is really about our wedding album. As a gift to ourselves for our anniversary, I designed a coffee-book album using Michael's photos. It was partly a test of how the album design works, as it's something that I have never done before. I'm happy to report that it was an exciting and exhausting exercise, but now I may be ready to add albums to my list of services!
