The Drama of Black & White
Â
Looking at a monochromatic photograph forces you to slow down and really study the image. There’s no color directing you, telling your eye where to go. Sometimes color can detract from an image which could cause you to miss the hidden finer details. An image in black & white (or sepia) breaks a photo down to its bare bones; you simply see the reflection of shadows, light, and composition. With this in mind, we put together a slide-show of select images from weddings we’ve recently photographed. We’ve put a lot of love and effort into this collection, so we really hope you enjoy it.
Album Layout – Thanh & Michael at Lake Mohawk Country Club
Hi blog readers! It’s hard to believe that 2008 has come to an end. We want to take this opportunity to thank you for your loyal reading, and to wish you all a happy, healthy new year! As one of our new year’s resolutions, we’re going to try posting something new every Tuesday on this blog, so make sure you check back often if you like what you see.
This week’s post is a sample album layout that I recently completed.
I chose Thanh & Michael’s wedding for this sample because in addition to having really awesome images taken on the boardwalk at Lake Mohawk Country Club, they had eye-catching neon green accents throughout their wedding which inspired this design.
For a design that stands out as much as this one does, it deserves a cover to match.  Below you can see our new metal cover with black textured leather… it definitely isn’t your average wedding album!  Â

Album Layout – Vanessa and Mario at Meadowood Manor
I wanted to share with you all an album layout that I created for Vanessa and Mario. This is definitely one of my all time favorite designs! Not only did they choose great photographs for their layout but also gave me total artistic discretion when it came to the design. There are lots of subtle details in the backgrounds which made it truly a unique and fun design.
Keep an eye out for more album layouts to come!
