Been a while since I posted up a new album design, so putting that right today. Amy & Simon’s fabulous day at Barnbougle Castle took place last May and, honestly, what a day that was – don’t take my word for it though, why not head on over to the full blog post for the bigger picture …
When it comes to albums, I only ever use one supplier, Graphistudio in Italy, one of, if not the best, wedding album manufacturer in the world. As well as the range of albums they offer, the options in terms of materials and colours are staggering, not withstanding the option to fully customise the album to your own taste – basically, if you can draw it on paper, Graphistudio can print it on the album – I don’t know of any other lab that can do that!!!
The guys opted for the Young Book album that comes with my popular Mezzo package and decided to add an extra 10 pages to the standard 50 contained in the package in order to incorporate all their favourite shots – you can have up to 100 pages in total with the Young Book if you choose … and yes, it’s a bit of a beast!!!
For the album, Amy & Simon had the idea of incorporating their wedding invite as a start point and were able to send me a .png file of the original design, from which I removed the background, leaving just the text and image to work with. This was then overlaid on to the chosen fuschia maple material for the cover of the box, with the same material also being used for the album cover. For a bit of contrast, an orange cloud leather material was selected for the inside of the box and an orange ribbon to finish things off nicely!
Anyway, here’s a little slideshow with some pics of the actual album followed by the design itself.
Please feel free to leave a comment if you like … it’s very much appreciated 🙂 – there’s a comment box right at the end of the pics!
The Pictures
Looking for Barnbougle Castle Wedding Photography … or anywhere for that matter?
If you’re getting married (or know someone who is), then you may just like my “ninja style” (a couple’s words, not mine) low key approach to the day! Most couples tell me they didn’t even notice me for the majority of the day and that suits me … it is your wedding day after all, not a photo-shoot!
My style is very unposed, unfussy and focuses more on documenting your day rather than directing it. Minimal group shots (or even none at all if you prefer) and short couple shoots allow you spend more of the day with the people that matter and have a total blast! Find out more here about the way I work.
For the past three years, I’ve been recognised by the WPJA as Scotland’s top ranked wedding photojournalist, so you know you’re in safe hands :-).
I’m mainly taking bookings now for 2027 & 2028 but do still have some limited availability for this year too … but I do now only shoot one wedding per weekend so dates can be very limited during peak times. So do get in touch asap guys to check my availability.
