One of our album companies had asked for permission to use two of our albums as sample albums at the Imaging USA expo in Nashville and Wedding & Portrait Photographers International Trade Show in Las Vegas.  Naturally, we said we’d think about it, and, of course, we had to wash our hair that day, etc.  But, in the end, we said okay.

It was really cool having our album company select TWO of our album designs as samples to sell their products to thousands of photographers at these shows.  So, congratulations to Amy & Jason and Devon & Bryan!  You guys are famous! In a very real… very casual… very low key… very trade show famous kind of way.  But we love you guys even if no asks for an autograph!

It feels great to be recognized for hard work, especially when you didn’t ask for it.  Each of our wedding albums is custom designed and woven to tell the story of our client’s wedding day.  We put a lot of thought and effort into each album.  When I tell other photographers how long I spend retouching an album, they look at me like I’m crazy.  But, as a professional retoucher, I know what it takes to make an album shine. I’m not fixing images.  There is nothing wrong with them.  I am polishing, enhancing, and making them the best they can be.  Making beautiful albums is what we do.  No, we don’t print them and bind them ourselves; we leave that to the professional album companies.  But we focus our efforts on photographing and retouching to create a fantastic design that warmly displays the story of your wedding day.  That’s why clients hire us.

Here are a couple of shots of our albums on the table at Imaging USA from my iPhone.
