I’m very excited to start offering Leather Craftsmen wedding albums to all my awesome current and future clients. They are the epitome of what quality albums are: professional feel/look and hand-crafted to withstand the test of time and wear/tear. Just about a month ago, I contacted Leather Craftsmen and within a day, I received info on how to go about designing and ordering their amazing products. What really influenced me to fall in love with their albums was their outstanding customer service and attention to details.

I’d like to send a special “thank you” to Ira, who resides in Los Angeles and is the West Coast representative for Leather Craftsmen. Just about a month ago, Ira invited me to check out LC’s wide range of albums at his lovely house just a few days after I signed up to be a client. At our meeting, he took the time to explain to me in great detail the many aspects of designing, choosing, and selling an album. Not only was I impressed with LC’s stellar line of albums, but also with Ira and his team of representatives. If you’re a wedding photographer wondering which album company to work with, I HIGHLY recommend Leather Craftsmen! And if you’re around Southern California, get in touch with Ira. He’s been a lifesaver, helping me understand album design and getting my first studio sample out the door.

Earlier today, I went down to LC’s office in Santa Ana to pick up my first studio album. It is a 11×14”, 43-page, distressed brown leather cover 3500-series album:

Super thick, durable, flushed pages:

Sleek yet large and heavy, just the way I like my albums!

The pages fold flat down and are all binded tightly together:

The slip case is just as stunning as the album:

Made with the same high quality leather as the album cover and protects your memories for many, many generations:

My design style is clean, simple, and elegant:

Here are a few more layouts:

Please let me know if you’re interested in a LC album for your wedding. I’ll have several more samples in the coming months.

Ever wonder what we could do with your engagement session photos? How about turning those lovely images into a guest book for your family and friends to sign at your wedding? I offer guest books like the one show below in various sizes and orientations (square, horizontal, and vertical). The pages are super thick and sturdy, meaning they won’t tear or get wrinkled easily.

I designed Lisa and Aldous‘ guest book last Tuesday and just 9 days later, I had it printed, assembled, and delivered to my doorstep. Now that’s what I like to call quality and speedy production from one of the awesome album companies I work with :). Here’s a 10×8”, 30-page, horizontal guest book for their wedding next Saturday.

A hard cover with your favorite image, name, and wedding date:

The white spaces around and between images make it convenient for the guests to sign their name:

They look really nice on your living room coffee table:

All photos are professionally retouched and enhanced; also, all layouts are designed from scratch by me, ensuring your guest book is unique and authentic:

There are no creases between pages; plus they fold flat down, making it easy to flip through the book and lay down for guests to sign:
