what kind of pictures did you put in your album?

Especially if you had a photojurnalsit and/or a small album.

We had a traditional photographer & a photojournalist.

I like a lot of the action shots, the bp & moms 7 grandmas walking into the church, people blowing bubbles at us as we leave the church, a couple of receiving line pictures.
This is making my album large- I'm ok with upgrading from 30 -40 pictures, but I still didn't put any of the posed shots befor ethe reception. Wasn't that the whole point of that hour?

I looked at my friends' album Sunday & they have mostly posed shots.
I can't decide if I need a posed picture of our familes, or is having them walking into the churh is enough.

We're doing a mix. All photos will be in the order of the day and we will mix the progression ones with the posed. The album will tell the story of our day.

This is pretty much how I'm doing it too!

Same here ...



my album

Thanks ladies!

I think that's what I want to do- a mix, I just want to make sure it flows & try to keep it to 40 pictures.

Wendy thanks so much for sharing your album! That really helped. I like that style better than the traditonal way my friends went. There is a lot of motion in your pictures, which makes it really feel like you were there. You had lot more pics than I will though.

Wendy, your album is gorgeous!!!

ETS: Sorry Tourist, I don't really have any advice - I'm still trying to pick out my album pics and go through an all-out rearrangement every couple of days.

I don't compeltely re-arrange, jsut add in more, I do look atth em evey day since I started tryign to make the album.

Dh had glanced, but is too overwhelmed & would prefer to jsut bein on the final edit, which is fien with me. I am afraid whe I show peoplw to ask for help, I am going to hear a lot of . . .why did you put THOSE pictures in. . when really I just want to know which version on pose x looks better.

Thanks

I know, we have A LOT of pics in our album. And I think if I had more restriction on the size, I would have cut more of the posed than the spontaneous ... the album consultant at my photographer's was AMAZING though, so I would even suggest putting together as many as you think you want and let them help you ...

Good luck!!

Thanks! I will probably do that, but I don't want them to try & sell me more than what I plan to buy. But I understand that it is not compeltey set in stone & they work with you when you go there.

Well, be firm on what your limit is not which pictures!



I was lucky I had XXXX amount of credit to spend to make my album and with all those pics and an 8x8 album with 20 pics for my mom, I only went over by $116!!

umm only 40 pictures - oh goodness i couldnt have ever handles narrowing it to 40 pictures
we have 150 in ours and it is all digitally done so multiple ones can be on a page - we picked everything we liked using some as bacground and others faded into it
we had both a photographer and a photojournalist also - and am really glad we went with both
