August 11, 2007 - Laura + Garrett

Adam and I were in Eureka Springs last weekend to shoot Laura + Garret’s wedding. It could have been really hot, but it was actually a beautiful day. The wedding was in the garden at the Crescent Hotel with the cocktail hour in the Conservatory and the reception in the Crystal Ballroom. What a gorgeous day! Check out a few of our favorites.

Custom, hand-made albums

Along with our new website and online gallery, we are pleased to announce a great new product that we are offering. We are proud to be the only photographers in the area to offer one-of-a-kind, hand-made albums! These albums are so neat! We’ve been busy lately making tons of samples for the bridal show in Little Rock this Sunday (be sure and come by our booth if you are planning on going to see them in person!) and wanted to wait until then to unveil these babies, but I’m just too excited about them! :)

The albums are 10×8 in size and are covered in beautiful book cloth which can vary in color and cloth type. We are even able to match the colors from your wedding. You can also get a cameo cover for your album that adds a nice touch to the cover. Our top three packages include an album, while the top package includes two 8×6 parents’ albums as well. You can view our new pricing guide here. We are also going to offer the albums  for children and senior sessions (with different cover options we are still working on). Here are some photos of the new albums:

With the vertical cameo cover:

The pages are super-thick and sturdy, just like the albums we offered in the past:

Erin + Will’s engagement session!

On Monday, I met Erin and Will in Eureka Springs for their engagement session. I had been wanting to go there for an engagement, so I was happy when Erin suggested it. We had a really good time and I found out they know quite a few people Cyndi and I know. Small world! :) I’m really looking forward to their wedding next month.
