gift-wrapping client albums...

Part of my wedding photography package includes a hard cover magazine style "proof" album of all of the days photos. Couple can use this album to choose the photos which will go into their larger keepsake albums, or even carry them along to show friends and family their wedding day. I've been searching for nice packaging or boxes to present the albums in, but didn't find anything I particularly felt was pretty and unique. Then I found the combination of nice lace hand-made paper, hand-dyed and crinkled shabby-chic ribbons, hand-made gift-tags with vintage imagery, and linen tote-bags with old postcard images. I think it all comes together very nicely to present a couple with their albums.
