I wanted to share an album design I just finished up with. It is from a wedding at Lake Texoma this summer.

The story telling is good. Too many different colours and styles across the pages for any coherence and consistency for me.

Looks very good.

A couple of comments.


Page 5 & 6 - Textured brocade looks great

Page 7 & 8 - Looks like it is missing something because of the edge to edge background on the previous pages, also 9 & 10 are edge to edge and 11 & 12 has the brocade again, it makes this page look out of place as the design would fit better later on or needs its own background

Page 9 & 10 - The main picture looks a little odd, it may look better in black and white

Page 23 & 24 - The rotated pictures look a bit naff in comarision to the rest of the design which is smart and classey

Page 47 & 48 - the two images look to be different sizes or not aligned correctly

Just one last point, make sure they want Russ on the cover and not his full name. I always put full names.

Overall i think its look very good with allot of excellent images. Top job.

Nice.

You put the pages together yourself? Then how do you print it?

Most people I know just use some automated thing like iPhoto or Windows...

Yes, I use template actions from www.flushmountpro.com to put the pages together in Photoshop. After the bride approves all of the designs, I upload the pages to my album company and they print and bind the album. It's an easy process!
