It's the HOT NEW trend in Weddings and J Conner has it!

Oh my goodness! I can't hold it in any longer. Here's a sneak preview of my NEW engagement book! This book, either hard-cover or soft-cover full-bled book can be used in place of a guestbook at the wedding OR use it during the reception. It's the perfect way to A) show off your awesome engagement photos and B) let your family and friends leave you a personal message.

You'll want to take this book with you on your honeymoon just so you can read all the anecdotes and tips your family left for you. When you get home, it's the pefect coffee table book for your new home and life as Mr. and Mrs.

You will cherish this book!

Every page is unique and customizable. You can pick your favorite questions/sayings or choose from my list. You also pick out your most-loved photos from the session to include in the book. I'm currently working with my wonderful professional lab to develop the pricing. I'm estimating the price beginning at $250 (costs vary depending on type of paper, total number of pages, and cover options), but unlike the wedding and session albums, there will be NO minimum order! Woo-hoo!

Sample pages (all pages shown below are TWO-page spreads):















Sarah and Mark, believe it or not I still have MORE photos to edit. I keep finding more I want to include! :) I'll be in touch with you before Monday.

Sarah & Mark

Woo-hoo! I got to take these two down to the Plaza and have fun with them! I had previously photographed them in a mini-session, but when they called and told me they were engaged, I just knew that I had to do a full session with them. They were so awesome. They karate-kicked, they jumped, they put up with my nit-picking to get just. the. right. shot. :)

Unfortunately, I'm already booked for a wedding on their wedding date. :( But that's okay - I can't possibly photograph every wedding no matter how much I want to. And believe me, I really want to! I just have so much fun! Anyhow, this blog entry is about them and not my desire to shoot all the weddings I possibly can. So, without further ado - check out this hip shot of Sarah and Mark standing in front of the stone work at The Melting Pot!

Congratulations Sarah and Mark!!!



Which reminds me... you know those boring guestbooks at weddings - well, you should see what I'm cookin' up. It's going to blow those guestbooks out of the water! What I have in mind is not going to be put into a box and filed away with other wedding momentos, oh no! This is going to be picked up, thumbed through, read and re-read over and over again. You're going to laugh. You're going to cry. And it will be the talk of your wedding. Stay tuned. I've got to iron out the details and then I'll provide some sneak peeks.
