Handmade Wedding Albums - Parents and Bridal

I did a unique wedding last August and was asked to make 3 albums. Using the material from the brides dress, I created these:

Front Cover of the Bridal Album

cameo cutout

utilized the awesome pattern in the tye-dye

hinged spine

black dupioni silk on inside cover

10x10 printed pages

60 sides

aprox. 180 images

background image crosses full 10x20 spread

one of the parents albums

7x7 - 54 sides

aprox. 140 images

black linen paper, hand bound

each book was similar, but customized with family specific images

photos are adhered using archival tape

It was such a fun project. So rewarding to create these cherished, one of a kind albums.

Our Latest Handmade Wedding Album

Tonight Michael and Jessica came to pick up their wedding album, in an earlier post I had shown the materials to be used in the cover so it is cool to see the progress. I have now entered this state of when I create the book I no longer am sad to give it away (though I would love to have a duplicate!), I am thrilled to hand over the album so anticipated by the client. This is how it turned out -
