How To Create an Album Through My Wedding Gallery

Ahh, albums. The keepsake that, I think, us 90's kids know very well. I remember flipping through photo alums of my parents wedding and albums of my childhood. Did you ever do that? Don't get me wrong, I think having access to all of these photos on our phones and computers is SO great, which is why all of the galleries I deliver are in an online format.

Albums are a truly beautiful way to display your love story in your home. There is nothing quite like having a tangible print to hold, share, and cherish. It's magic, friends.

Put it on your coffee table or on a bookshelf. Watch and hear and feel all the love as you host family and friends and break out the album to gush over how cute you guys are (No shame in my compliment game). See how your parents light up when you gift them a gorgeous parent album for them to keep in their own home. It's simply the best gift you can give.

This post is a guide to how you can create an album through your PASS gallery. Every wedding I deliver receives an online gallery of their high-resolution photos. These photos can be downloaded and printed elsewhere with the personal print right I give to my couples and families - but why do that when you can have access to a professional lab (that only works with photographers) for your precious memories? The quality is unreal, friends.

I love PASS because they allow my clients to take control over what they want printed, without needing to go through me, wait for my response, etc. Of course, I love to help when I can, and my couples KNOW how fast I am at responding to emails and questions.

But with busy schedules and late night shopping on the rise (I'm SO guilty!) I prefer how easy it is to just add what I want to my cart, click check out, and have all of my pretty things delivered ASAP, right to my door. You feel me?

Psst! Don't want to be the one to design your album? Not a problem, fam. I've got you. For an additional charge, I can design your album for you, have you proof each page through your PASS gallery. You'll have the opportunity to personally let me know of any notes you'd like me to change before we send it off for printing. They make it so easy and I LOVE IT.

Do you got some DIY vibes in your blood and you like details? I'd bet you would prefer to design your wedding album yourself. If so, keep reading, this post is for you!

How To Create an Album Through My Wedding Gallery

1. Open up your gallery and click either "Shop All" or your "Cart"

2. Select "Albums" or "Photo Books"

2a. "Albums" are a lay-flat, beautifully handcrafted premium choice. The elegant albums are hand-bound with the highest quality materials to preserve and display your memories. Covers are available in linen, a more durable cotton fabric called buckram, or leather, and in a range of sizes.

"Photo Books" are still classy, fam. They are crafted from top quality materials and section-sewn to give lasting quality and panoramic spreads that open to lie near-flat. Covers are available in linen or buckram (leather is not available for these bad boys), and in a range of sizes. These are the perfect companion to albums or as their own stand alone keepsakes.

3. PASS will automatically generate an album for you. You can start fresh, or view the album and make some changes from there.

4. Review the size and cover options.

5. Scroll down to review the album.

6. See any spreads you'd like to do a little differently? No problem. Just hover over the spread and click edit.

7. From here you can choose a different spread layout, change the crop on images, switch out images for a different one, etc. Make any tweaks you want so you can get this spread to look exactly how you want!

8. That's it! When you love what you see, click "Add to cart" in the top right corner.

BOOM - you were able to create an album, and order it in just a couple of minutes! What are you going to do with all of your hours saved?
