Today my daughter and I went to a wedding for a friend of mine. I had decided I wanted to do a small gift album for them and went with my camera loaded with film and the idea that I was going to take photos of each guest and have them write a little note on a journal box.
However when I got there I saw that one of the other guests was doing a memory quilt and already had a table set up to have people write on the pre-made quilt squares. I figured people would be overloaded by all the memory creating - so I went with plan B.
I took all the pictures I didn’t see the wedding photographer taking. When the family was lining up to get the official family shot, I took the family photo from behind. I grabbed a shot of the bride’s dad taking a picture. I took photos of the centerpieces. I even took some of the food. A solid roll of film of the unusual details of the wedding.
So I really hope that all these turn out and that the album is a good one. I’ll let you know when I get it done (hopefully next weekend).
Have you ever done a small gift album for anyone? This is my first for a non-family member. Keep your fingers crossed for me.
