custom announcements

. . . . .

So fun! I have started doing custom announcements and am really enjoying it. These were for a friend’s parent’s 50th anniversary party earlier this summer. I forgot to keep a sample for myself, so she just sent me this one today. I love her writing and it was fun seeing the announcement again. Such great old pictures of her parents!

Thanks for sending, Colleen!

a custom travel book

. . . . .

Since summer is winding down and hopefully everyone enjoyed some wonderful travels with family and friends, I thought this would be a good book to share.

Eric traveled to an Italian villa with family and friends to celebrate his 40th birthday. And now I officially want to do the same thing! It looks truly magical.

Here is the book we put together of the trip.

He asked everyone on the trip to share their travel memories, and then we interspersed them throughout the book. It was quite touching.

Thank you for sharing, Eric!

whew, what a week

. . . . .

Wrapping up a busy but productive week. We shipped these 3 books yesterday and loved how they all turned out. A wedding accordion, a fortieth birthday book, and an 80th birthday book. Can’t show you the insides of the birthday ones - they’re surprises!

Happy weekend, everyone.

We are so excited to start working with Joel Flory, a SF-based photographer who has such a great eye and fun, creative wedding clients!

We just finished his first sample book, which he featured on his blog. Thanks, Joel!

If you’re looking for a SF area wedding photographer, check out his work and then make your wedding book with us!

I got my spelling test all rite.

Isn’t this note a keeper? It’s going in a book we’re working on right now. The child wrote it to her parents while they were out of town. I’m sure they were quite proud of her accomplishment!
