Paul & Melinda’s Engagement Album at Letchworth State Park
March 09, 2010
Thought I would share a few of my favorite’s from Paul & Melinda’s engagement album they’ll be displaying as their wedding guestbook in June. Spring is just around the corner and these photos get me excited about walks in the park and flowers blooming!
It was almost 60° today so I dressed in the brightest white-pink-green combo I could find in my closest. Maybe a little too early for such a bold outfit, but I’m excited for the wedding season to start!

Engagement Album / Wedding Guestbook Design
February 24, 2010
I adore custom photo albums. Reviewing images after a photo shoot used to be my favorite activity, but that was before I received my first designed album. They are just so stunning in person! Mariah and Jason wanted to include their children in their engagement session so their book was filled with fun romping in the leaves but also a romantic walk around the village.
Whether an engagement album or a wedding guestbook, I design with simple lines and colors to enhance the photos and leave plenty of space for signatures if needed. Being the dimensions of the book are 8.5"x11", the pages contain big beautiful photos sometimes measuring 22” wide on full page spreads!
Engagement albums contain an average of 60 photos across 20 spreads with the option to select your favorite images. Look for an upcoming post showing photos of the finished product!

Kate: (02.25.10 - 1:13 am) Looks great! I really like pg. 5 -- an American Dream -- a House with a yard, American flag out front, and a family.
Deanna: (02.25.10 - 4:45 pm) That's so funny because I was thinking the same thing when I posted this. Could be the cover of a magazine!
Kristen’s After Glow
January 11, 2010
Describe your wedding day in one word.
Fabulous!
What was your favorite moment of the day?
The brief moment after the ceremony when I got a private moment to kiss my new husband for the first time. Also, getting to be first through the buffet line as the “bride” privilege.
Favorite wedding photo?
I liked the close-up shots of our sneakers...the cake smashing series...the ones of me on the steps with my gown flowing out behind me...and the ones of my husband and I kissing. I used to like the one at the ceremony of my husband with a big grin on his face, but I now know that’s not from the excitement of seeing me walk down the aisle, but his amusement at watching me trip up the stairs. Dee took so many amazing pictures, and made me look so good, that it’s really hard to pick just one.
Any advice for future brides?
Keep the traditional parts you like and toss the rest. Don’t let anyone else direct you on what to do with your BIG day. Also, have a photo booth at your reception! The guests dig it, and you get lots of funny pictures.

The Thomas Family is ready for a wedding!
December 12, 2009
This started as an engagement session but we all know when kids are involved, they take center stage. We had a blast jumping around in piles of fresh, crisp leaves but holy cow, where do kids get so much energy? I hope bearing a child also comes with a burst of energy or I’m in trouble! Look for part two coming very soon since these lovebirds are tying the knot in a few short weeks on New Year’s Eve! Party and play? I can’t wait!

Nick and Kristen’s Wedding at Beaver Meadow Audubon Center
November 21, 2009
When I create a slideshow for a bride and groom, I try to use their first dance song because I know it’s a special melody. I’ll be honest when I say that I would have never picked this song for Nick and Kristen’s photos and that’s why I love it. I’d never even heard this song before, but it reminds me of how beautiful and unique each relationship is that I’m so lucky to be able to experience and photograph. Thank you.

Reception Venue: St. Cecelia’s Church Hall in Strykersville, NY
