{Wedding Album Design Review}

Hello! I wanted to share with you the design of your album! If there are any comments, major changes or photo swaps, please let me know!

** quick note about photos and spreads. The album includes 20 spreads and we are currently at 26 spreads. This means we are 6 spreads over at $40 per spread. I wanted to present it to you this way first and let you make the decision of taking out certain spreads or trimming things down if you would like to.

I hope you love it, enjoy!

PS. I have made sure no faces are in the centerfold. 🙂

There’s something about that first time your baby wraps their fingers around yours.⁠

It’s instinct, sure—but it’s also connection.
A silent little promise: *I know you. I trust you. I’m safe here.*⁠
⁠
They won’t remember this moment, but you will.⁠
And years from now, you’ll look at this photo and remember exactly how it felt.⁠
⁠
That’s the power of something so small.⁠

They’ll never be this tiny again. Every newborn is a once-in-a-lifetime masterpiece—just days old, yet already entirely themselves. These early moments are fleeting, raw, and unrepeatable. Capture them not just for now, but for the decades ahead when these sleepy yawns and curled-up fingers feel like a dream.

Because the truth is—your kids probably won’t sit still.⁠⁣
They’ll make silly faces, run in opposite directions, or collapse into giggles just when you were hoping for that “one perfect shot.”⁣
⁠⁣
And honestly? That’s exactly what I want to capture.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
The real smiles. The chaos. The snuggles. The way your toddler leans into you when they're tired, or how your baby clutches your finger like it’s the most important thing in the world.⁣
⁠⁣
That’s the good stuff.⁣
⁠⁣
And those are the moments you’ll actually want to remember.⁠
There’s something so special about gathering the whole family—generations together, kids running barefoot through the sand, golden light pouring in.

This sunset session was filled with tiny, beautiful moments: a toddler twirling in her grandma’s arms, cousins holding hands, laughter between siblings who’ve grown up side by side.

It’s these in-between moments that mean the most. The ones that tell the real story of your family—just as you are, right now.

They say a day well lived makes every yesterday a dream—and I believe it. These really are the best days of our lives. Not because they’re perfect, but because they’re filled with love, laughter, and those tiny everyday moments that make life beautiful—if we pause long enough to notice.

Today reminded me how important it is to slow down. To take a breath, step away from the hustle, and make space for the in-between moments that are everything.♥️
