laughing.gif A few months ago, I went to a bridal show to check out what local photographers were offering. One photographer had a really cool matted album that had custom-cut pages. and custom-cut mats. For example, there was one page that folded out on both sides of the page spread, like a centerfold-type thing...but the fold-out "wings" were cut diagonally so that when the spread was folded in they concealed about half of the inside photos and made a triangular shape out of them. When the "wings" were folded out, they had little funky-shaped mat cuts in them with photos filling out the triangular shape of the wings.

I asked the photographer who made that cool album, but they wouldn't tell me because apparently I'm competition. wacko.gif So this has been eating at me for a long time.

Does anybody know who makes neat foldy, custom-shaped, matted albums?

Sure sounds like a La-Vie!

That's it, that's it!

I will love you forever, Bruce. <3<3<3

Yep, I was going to say that sounded like La Vie.

La Vie albums are GORGEOUS but soooooooooooooo expensive. I am going to order one eventually.

I wish I could offer only La-Vie albums. I've sold two, and they are outstanding, unique, and truly a work of art. And expensive.

I hope you can get yourself one, Jessica. Next time we talk, let's discuss these and some pricing scenarios! thumbsup.gif

Yeah, I imagine the price is astronomical. I'd still love to have one and will probably find some way to order one if the right client comes along to make a long-lasting sample with (so...nice, classic style dress; classic hairdo; nothing that will look dated in a few years).

Dang - they're awesome!

La-Vie is quite pricey, but FYI - they are running a special for 50% off samples through July 31st (they're normally 30% I believe)! I'm SOOO jumping all over that! I haven't ordered a sample yet, was just getting ready to when I saw the special!
