It’s that time again, the end of summer blues. I’m heading off for a short vacation and am closing the Willow Album Design Offices from August 22-28. Emails will not be answered, album approvals and uploads will have to wait until I return. When I do return, it will be the start of the fall...
Mixing Album Design Styles
Leslie just sent this wedding over to me, asking me to design her a killer sample since the wedding was in Paris, France. Since Leslie does a lot of Organic Design wedding albums, I thought keeping that idea and expanding a bit would be great for a sample album. I sampled colors from the bride’s...

Designing for Unique Album Sizes
I’ve been designing a lot of 20×8 albums lately! Desiree from dMdC Photography sent over a beautiful collection of images filled with rustic touches and many portraits.

WPPI Show Special
In all the years I’ve attended WPPI I’ve always tried to take advantage of show specials while there. I never find spectacular deals on CF cards, but I’ve found some really great deals elsewhere. And with that, I want to announce a one week only special! Pre-pay for two album designs, and get the third...
