Here is a sample of a lay-flat coffee table wedding book. We really like these books because we can print one photo across a couple of pages and still see the entire image. In the old style of press printed books, some of the image was lost in the gutter where the pages come together. The lay-flat pages give these books the same look of our more expensive Fine Art Albums. Patrick Danaher and Sarah Baxter were married at Novelty Hill – Januik Winery in Woodinville, Washington in the rain in August. They had hoped for an  outdoor ceremony in the visually stunning courtyard but the rain continued. Sarah and Patrick took it in stride and were let down by the fact that their plans were going to have to change. Many things about this couple but what was the easiest thing to photograph was how well they danced together. See for yourself in the sample pages below.

Lately we have been offering these books in a 12×12″ size which makes them even more impressive than the 8.5×11″ you see here. We really like the more flexibility in design choices when it comes time to layout the pictures.

We just got back Rhonda and Andrew’s wedding book from the printers and wanted to show it off some. We are using a new style of book for our coffee table books now. They are called lay flat because that is what they do. What we really like is the ability of running a photo across two pages and still be able to see the whole images. I will post some pictures below to show you how they look. Share on Facebook
