Ideas for Wedding Photo Albums

by James B. Markus

The only real difference between modern wedding photo albums and versions from fifty years ago is that they would have contained monochrome images; technology has started to give us alternatives though! Probably the same etiquette that dictated how the bride’s mother was shown in the album will be used today so you can expect to see her as the first photo in her wedding dress. After this photo there are usually a few images of them somewhere close by that provides a beautiful backdrop to really show them off.

The wedding party has at least one photo in the most modern wedding photo album just like the pictures a generation ago because the party makes a beautiful picture with their matching dresses and sleek tuxedoes. The whole group is made up of friends and family of the bride and groom; there is probably a very similar picture in their parent’s album. The bride should then, by tradition, have some pictures taken of her and her attendants for the day.

After these shots are taken it will be the turn of the bride and her family, then the groom posing with his family. Wedding photo albums are generally large bound examples that contain pictures that are bigger than usual on pages that may be inlaid or embossed. The vast majority of wedding photo albums are presented in white with images like bells and bouquets displayed and often embossed on the cover of the album.

Wedding albums are normally a combination of white with silver trim which are the traditional colors associated with weddings with the images arranged in a way to capture attention. However, almost all wedding photographers now use digital cameras so they can supply traditional photos on paper in addition to those that can be stored on a compact disc or a digital versatile disc (DVD). Every bride and groom should have their photos placed on a disc as they are less likely to be damaged and can be taken anywhere and displayed on large screens if required.

If guests want to have a copy, they can have all the images and not just their favorite few; these can be stored in presentation boxes for later viewing as a digital wedding photo album. There are a number of benefits to this because not only can the images be viewed as normal but also printed out in the traditional manner at home or at a regular photo printing store. Modern technology has improved upon the albums from long ago with the addition of pictures available on the latest digital photo frames
