aperture training DVD design

Way back when I didn’t have a baby I worked on a design project that was loads of fun. But then, I never blogged it because I didn’t have a chance to sit down and actually put the post up. For that I am sorry. I worked with Sara over the course of a couple months to take her Aperture Training DVDs from start to finish. We started working on this for WPPI 2010 when she first started promoting the DVDs that were being prepped! It seems like forever ago now.

finding the best album just got easier

I don’t think I make it much of a secret that I love Queensberry albums. They are gorgeous. They can be both modern and timeless and can be customized to completely match your wedding day and style.

I originally stumbled upon the cans for comments concept when they requested to follow me on Twitter. Â I read through their description quickly one morning, hit accept, and went on my merry way. Â My scan through the description didn’t actually process anything through my brain at that early hour one day except “not spam”. Â A few days later, I clicked on someone’s blog post on Twitter. Â Emily Porter‘s to be exact. Â I read through the post and I loved it. Â Maybe it just takes more than 140 characters for me to realize awesomeness. Â I love the idea! Â Emily could not have been more right….when you are dealing with all your daily tasks and keeping so busy, especially this time f year, a comment in your inbox for your blog is a ray of sunshine. Â For me, it lets me know that there are people out there that see what I am working on, and take a minute to appreciate it. …more…
