Lori & Mike's coffee table book arrived last week and I absolutely loved how it turned out! The printing is excellent -such great color quality, and the pages are so satiny smooth that you won't be able to keep your hands off them. You know how sometimes pictures just don't do the real thing justice? Well, this is definitely one of those times, but I'll do my best.

The case for the book.


Dustjacket.


Hardcover photo cover.


The first page comes with a sheer protective sheet. Very classy, very elegant.


Love the printing.


Panoramic images work for this book because it's relatively flat.


These books aren't just for weddings either. Use them for baby, family, senior portraits, engagement sessions. They come in a variety of sizes, so come in the studio and see for yourself how awesome these are!

New Album Alert!

I am lovin' this new hardcover coffee table flushmount album my studio's now carrying. The pages are THICK, sturdy and lie completely flat, the printing is done beautifully, and the quality (hand put together) is outstanding. I'm planning on making all my personal travel albums using this company! It'll be such an eye catcher for guests whether on the coffee table or bookshelf.

Here's an album made using the Tran Family's photo session.
















What an awesome way to keep your memories accessible to you at all times. And its yumminess makes you want to pick it up and devour it every time you see it!

Whoohoo! Over the past few weeks, after attending PPA's photography convention here in Phoenix, I have been ordering products like a madwoman. Now that (almost) everything's finally here, I wanted to be able to showcase them. So here goes!

Canvas gallery wraps. These are awesome to put up on your walls at home. It's art, but more personal if you or your loved one is on it. Samples please? Ok.

I love this 24x38 of cute little Alexis. It just had to be big.

And for my own personal pleasure, 9x9's of some images I took on our Argentina trip.

I love the wrap around so that every side of the exposed canvas is covered.

Next up is the Luna album. This album comes in a black leather box, has thick pages, and is completely seamless so there's no gap between the photos when you want to do a panoramic. Most excellent!
I have silk albums for samples, but it also comes in a variety of leather as well.

Another new album I'm carrying is the Shiva. It's got the same thick, seamless pages

Coffee Table books are a great affordable way to get the magazine layout look inside (where you have multiple photos laid out on a page). The pages are thinner than the albums, but they're a fun way to show off your photos.

And finally, calendars! I've been searching around forever for a vendor who would make a good quality calendar. There have been quite a few misses (bad quality photos, cheap paper), but I'm happy to say I love everything about the calendar that this vendor makes. The photos come out great and the pages are thick.
Here's the front cover:

And that's all for now! I hope you all make good use of the photos you love by displaying them proudly somewhere instead of keeping them locked up in your computer where no one can see them. =)
