This is our wedding album. Brian and I are a little more casual than some others… so we opted for a book printed by blurb.com. I really LOVE the print and how the cover and binding turned out. I really couldn’t be happier… it is exactly what i was hoping for. I designed the albums all by myself by downloading some of the specs and sizes off of the blurb site. Not all the pages are shown here… just some of them. Brian and I also bought this same album for his parents and my parents for christmas. THEY LOVED IT!! Sorry this post and photographs are visually too busy and I am showing WAY to many.. but i thought they were a little fun. I always love your thoughts and comments.

It’s perfect! I started one for my wedding through blurb but we didn’t do digital (and that was only five years ago….but I didn’t know anyone that did digital photography at the time) and the photos aren’t coming out too great. But your photo’s are fantastic!

so cool! thanks for sharing!!
December 28th, 2009 at 4:06 pm
love it. so clean and simple. I love devoting the pages to larger images rather than many small ones. great job. now Im inspired to finish mine.
December 28th, 2009 at 4:24 pm
wow! really cool! you have some serious talent.
there are some other books which are awesome if you’d like thicker pages from Vision Art Books: http://www.visionartbooks.com. they are also not too expensive.

This book is amazing! Great job!

I love looking at wedding pictures. We got married eight years ago and ours are in a regular album that was part of our photography package. I love it but yours seems more like a story book.

Very nice. Now your memories will last longer than your lifetime.

love this book! love the pictures! i’ve used blurb before. used it several years ago for my parents’ wedding pictures from years ago. It turned out great. i think i need to find an excuse to take pictures and create another album!
December 28th, 2009 at 8:57 pm

December 29th, 2009 at 1:32 pm
my half-finished scrapbooked wedding album has been sitting in my room for over a year.
I should just suck it up and do blurb.
December 29th, 2009 at 1:49 pm
It’s beautiful! Good job! Great idea for Christmas presents too, who wouldn’t want that!?!? congrats again!

t’was a fantastic day

What a beautiful wedding and great ideas for gifts! OK, so I’m totally not a stalker but I just realized I drove through the U of R (I live in the city) while you were having your reception! I remember seeing the lighting and thinking how most weddings there do not have stuff like that. It’s neat to see all the details I couldn’t see while driving.

Beautiful album girl – I have a question! How did you get your images to wrap from one page to the next in your layouts on blurb? I’ve used them in the past, but stopped bc I wanted full spreads but couldn’t get them to work? I know you’re busy
but I’d love to hear how you did it! Thanks!
June 1st, 2010 at 10:45 pm
I LOVE your wedding!!!!! I fell in love the first time i saw it while searching UofR weddings. I then found your photographer who is amazing!!! THe details to your wedding are to DIE for!!!! I recently went to a tasting event at the UofR and your book was right there for all of us to enjoy!!! My sister is getting married at the UofR and your wedding is truly an inspiration!!!
