The Short Version
1. Decide on the type of album and number of pages you want.
2. Get your invoice and pay 50% down as a deposit.

4. I design your album/book!
5. You proof your album/book and request changes/approve the designs.
6. Get your final invoice and pay the remaining balance.
7. I send your album/book to print.
8. You receive your new, one-of-a-kind album/book!
More Detailed Version
To begin with, we will first try to get a ball-park idea of how many sides you are wanting and what type of cover you want for your album/book (you can make changes or add-ons later, but that way we can at least have a base price to start with). Once we have a initial estimate, I will send you an invoice for a 50% deposit to begin working on the book; the remaining amount will be due before the album/book is sent to print.
Once payment clears, you will get an e-mail requesting you to share a folder with me through dropbox.com (the web-sharing website I use). You will need to create a free account through there, but it is really quick and easy. Once you have an account set up, you can simply upload the images to the website folder that we are sharing and I will have access to anything you place within the folder. You can also download the dropbox software to your computer so you can just drag and drop the images if that would work easier. If you would prefer, you can also send me a CD containing all of the images you want included in your album. (Need help figuring out how many images to include for your wedding album? Please see below.)
Then, I start designing your album/book! It can take up to two weeks to design, but it is normally more around a week to ten days. Once I have the book designed, I will post the album to a protected website for you to review. You can make as many edits as need be until the book is exactly how you envision it.
Once the book is approved, I will send you a final invoice showing you the remaining amount owed. When the payment has cleared, I will send your book to print. You should receive your completed book between 2-3 weeks!
