Albums!

I know I've been on a bit of a blogging hiatus lately but it's because I'm working on lots of stuff like the new brand, new website/blog (and yes, I realize I've been saying "the new website is coming" for the past year but really, it IS coming!), and I've also been spending more time creating fun and unique ways to display photographs in homes. I think one of the saddest things about the digital photography era is that so few photographs actually get printed. Seeing photographs on a computer screen is OK and it's convenient but it cannot compare to holding a printed photo in hand. So I have been working on printing large, beautiful gallery wrap canvases, press printed coffee table books, and albums...all things I love for display options. I am sooo excited to share Teri and Mike's album! It is a 8x20 (16x20 when open) album with a metal photo cover accented with a textured leather. Emily, a fabulous designer from Albumesque, an album design company designed Teri and Mike's album and did an awesome job! To see the entire design, click here!

Arday and Kara

Arday and Kara were married on a gorgeous September day at the First Presbyterian Church in Fargo, ND. Following the ceremony, they continued the celebration just a block away from the church at the Plains Art Museum. Kara and Arday (I think mostly Kara!) meticulously planned all the gorgeous details about the day. And boy, was it was gorgeous. Kara's mom made ALL the dresses, which were stunning. Kara created her own flower arrangements, table decorations, programs, everything! I was totally impressed!

Arday, (my fellow Cobber) it was so fun to meet Kara...she is beautiful! And Kara, I'm so happy you and Arday found one another! We had so much fun photographing your big day! Congratulations to you both!





I've been itching to photograph a bride with a birdcage veil! :)



I loved all those buttons!



Getting ready to see his bride!





















I loved this sign they made!



Hello pretty lady.


















As you can tell, I couldn't get enough of this wall...
























Kung Fu bride??










Here we go!












I loved these doors at the back of the church.







Married!



I took sooo many pictures of the details at the reception because they were all so cute!



















Congrats to you, Kara and Arday!
