The new vintage wedding album that we designed and had made by Queensberry is proving very popular and they do look great. Here is the latest one featuring photography from Charlotte and Tristan’s beautiful Spring wedding at Combe Bank School.

Vintage Wedding Album by Queensberry

So what to put all this gorgeous Vintage Wedding Photography in? I was looking for an album that had the Vintage feel but could match the craftmanship of my Queensberry albums. After much research and contacting other album makers, I still hadn’t found ‘The One.’ I was chatting to the very lovely Jo Newman from Queensberry who suggested looking at their Vanilla Bean cover material which is the one that Amy and I both loved from the newest swatch book anyway. It is very soft and tactile but looks weathered so tick for the Vintage cover. Jo then reminded me of the Barcelona album that the mighty Johannes Van Kan had shown at his talk back in September that had completely blown me away. This album is relatively small but chunky and lots of the images are tiny so it has a precious feel to it. Another Vintage tick. So I merrily went about designing a new sample in Photojunction, using images from Nicola and Daniel’s beautiful Sussex country house wedding. I wanted to add their names or the date to the cover but embossing doesn’t work with this material. My great friend Katharine is in the process of setting up a company offering Vintage inspired stationary for weddings so I asked her and her partner Debs to design a label for the Vintage Queensberry. Being the creative types that they are, they have come up with a gorgeous range which can be personalised for each wedding and the ribbon will be sourced to match. I showed it to some sets of clients on Saturday and one of them spent a while subconsciously hugging it, which has never happened before! So here it is, would love to know your thoughts.

Vintage Wedding Album

I know the sun is shining and little daffodils are bobbing in the breeze but today I am working on Maddie and Nick’s gorgeous winter wedding. They were lucky to have chosen a perfect day where the snow was sparkling on the ground but the sky was blue and the light was beautiful. They have chosen around 170 images to go in a Photobook and have opted for the Vintage finish. Maddie’s look on the day was classic vintage bridal and their stunning venue of Ashdown Park Hotel in Sussex looked like a perfect winter wonderland. I loved the flowers by Pollen as the berries gave them a winter feel but very luscious looking. One tip, if you are planning your winter wedding – don’t get married any later than 2pm. Maddie and Nick called me as they were thinking of a 4pm ceremony with candles, imagine if we had missed all this lovely light for the photography!
