I guess you can tell from this blog entry that I’m an old-fashioned girl. I love classic linen bookcloth wedding albums and Polaroid film (which I still have in a limited supply of course).
I created these three albums for the A Soolip Wedding event a couple of weeks ago. I’m proud to add these albums to my repertoire of albums to show to brides to be.
Check out Mark & Jennifer’s beautiful Catalina wedding album.
As promised, here is what my booth looked like at A Soolip Wedding on Sunday afternoon.
For this show I premiered new proof boxes and new press printed books in beautiful linen bookcloth, plus a sweet little accordion book. Happy to say that I already had all the props for my table. All those scavengers hunts at local flea markets and antique stores across the country has paid off.
Thank you Kara Frans and Jen O’Sullivan for these images.
One of my favorite paper blogs is Paper Crave and my work has been featured on their blog this week. It’s the best validation of my work when a paper blog loves what I did with this wedding album.

I created this album with the paper loving bride in mind.
I sifted through 80 bookcloths for the album cover and 15 different choices in end paper patterns.
Envelopments has a beautiful paper called “Repousse” and it comes in 7 colors. I chose the Dove color and used this paper for the liner for the album cover image, end paper and invitation page of the album.
Creating an album like this allows the bride to incorporate her invitation into the wedding album, which is the one thing you have after your wedding to remember your wedding by.
The album I created showcases my favorite wedding images from the last few years and instead of an actual invite page I used a beautiful poem about Love from Elizabeth Barrett Browning. The poem was printed on Envelopment’s Ecru paper.
The choices are endless and that’s what makes this album so much fun for me and for the bride.
I showcased this album at last weekend’s LA Printers Fair and it was a huge hit with this paper loving crowd.

I am so excited about the custom album I am creating for the LA Printers Fair. You can click on the image above to view the images inside the album or click here.
Leather Craftsmen is working with me and the album will have custom end papers. Can’t wait until the finished album is ready to show everyone.
Album companies have many different types of cover choices for albums including leather and japanese bookcloth.
My client wanted a gold cover for her wedding album so I found a bookcloth for her through a bookbinding company and Leather Craftsmen was willing to use the bookcloth the client preferred.
I just love how the album turned out.
I have always loved Jessica and Paulo’s wedding at the Hotel Metropole on Catalina Island. Catalina is such a majestic place to get married.
And because of my “special connections” on the island we also got to shoot at the iconic Catalina Casino.
The ever talented Kerry Murphy of Ever After Book designed their wedding album and I just love it.
