First album C&C request

[spphoto]

This is going to be my first wedding sample album, a 10x10 Asuka Book. I'm not sure whether to go EX yet or not, but I know I'll be ordering a regular one for the b&g. She's actually a wedding photographer, so it was a little stressful to shoot, but I'm really happy with the pictures. Anyway, I'd like to get you guys' opinions before they proof it. Thanks a million!

I like it, you did a good job with the photos and the book! I like the reasonably simple layout.

Lovely album, great layout. I would be a bit dubious about the cover colour. Otherwise excellent.

I think it looks great. The text in the middle, was that from their script?

I wasn't sure I liked the cover color either. But when I looked at it a second time, I liked it! I think it complements the pictures used very well.

I also think you did a great job!

I dont like the cover color or the embossed frames around the photos. Go with a white cover or wrap a photo all the way around it.

The text in the middle is their vows, the song quote near the end is random, so we'll see if they like that or not. I'm going to try a different cover, seeing as that seems to be what you guys doubt the most, but I kinda like the pink, it was the color of the day so it seemed appropriate. Never the less, I'll try something different too.

any reception?


Did you use the Asuka layouts? Kubota?

Actually I was only hired to shoot the ceremony and portraits, but the ferry got me there early enough to get the prep too (it was taking place on a small island across from our city). There are reception photos, but I didn't shoot them, as I mentioned the bride is a wedding photog (actually her bridesmaid is too), so they shot their own. I may add them later if they want me to add their photos, but it will be my sample album to so I don't know.

As for the designs, I did them all 'free hand', just using the Asuka files for the file set up and no actions or templates for the layout. I find I work better that way, and I have a lot of graphic design training and experiance, so it goes pretty quickly.
