Nikki and Rich had a wedding style that reflected their personalities perfectly. Vintage inspired wedding dress shop owner Nikki, wore one of her beautiful dresses with her favorite bright pink shoes. Rich looked cool, and more like a rockstar come gangstar than a groom says their photographer Caroline White. "The art deco boutique hotel venue in the centre of town meant we could go for a walk in the streets. As we were walking, two guys driving the most amazing bright red car, like something out of a movie (it turns out it actually was!) drove past. I was so excited, I said "wow that's amazing, To View More >>

We couldn't resist sharing this beautiful album! With photography by Nick Unwin, it shows a few hours in the carefree world of an 8 month old foal, Tallulah and her mum Bunty at their home in Wark, Northumberland in the UK. Tallulah's owner Jude Isbister, also owns several other horses that feature in the album as well. Here are a few layouts of the 14x10H Digital album with Iron Contemporary Leather cover. Click here to see more of Nick Unwin's work. PS - Nick also made a beautiful movie of the album, you can check it out here. You'll find another post for horse lovers here. To View More >>

Johannes has a better metaphor, but the photo is from iStock. - Ed. The Bumble Bee Effect. Different to the Butterfly Effect because they haven't made a movie of the same name with at least two sequels. The Bumble Bee effect is all about buzz and pollen. It's about being talked about. We successfully did so by putting on an earthquake (a really big one). There are other ways to create a buzz that are much more positive. Obvious buzz topics are awards, photographing the wedding of Kate and Prince William, standing tall in the face of adversity, scandal, heroism, and achievement. (Actually 'scandal' To View More >>

Best EVER Movie. I watch Love Actually at least twice a year (or any other time I feel the need to top up my tank). I can still feel the emotion ... the prickle of anticipation at the opening scene in the Heathrow Arrivals Hall, knowing that I am about to experience something amazing. First time, I think I cried most of the way through the movie! Here's that scene again, for anyone who feels their tank need filling :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMScPVO4rLw Enjoy, Sonya Pretty cool the way it segues back to Heathrow at the end too - Ed To View More >>

This is a very cool and quirky Save the Date made by Studio Artifice in France. The idea at the end is about “Love Padlocks", which is a relatively new trend where sweethearts affix a padlock to a fence or public fixture to symbolize their love. You lock a padlock and throw away the key. In Paris, love padlocks are usually attached to the Pont des Arts bridge but the trend has taken off all over the world. Enjoy!

Not the movie! I am talking about wedding photography. OHHHH if only I had a dollar for every time somebody said to me can you airbrush/photoshop me thinner/more beautiful/younger/less wrinkled, and why oh why is it always, I want to look like Brad Pitt or Angelina?! I would be RICH!!!!! Filthy dirty rich, and in truth I would not have to make any money as a photographer. Photographers didn't really invent the lie ... Adobe did. Actually that is a lie, it was the first person to do a cave drawing representing themselves (or somebody else) as a bit more upright than they really were, or possibly To View More >>

Rebecca said it right! The more you replicate other photographers the more beige you become. Be inspired by the success of other photographers and influenced by their philosophies. Be colourful, but accept that some people see beige as a safe colour. Somebody asked me how do we stand out when our audience sees us as somehow all the same ... just dearer or cheaper (light beige and dark beige). I was watching a piece on TED about a guy called Daniel Libeskind ... his work is very left of centre and clearly not beige. Watch it and listen to his talk. Take note of his word sets, Emotional To View More >>

We're describing the perfect way to send us your print-and-bind order... After exporting your files you definitely shouldn't jump straight to LabFTP and send us the files - we wouldn't know what to do with them! Instead, always use the Remix Order Wizard. (You'll find it under the Album menu). Remix will validate your order and create an order "bundle" that contains everything we'll need to process your order - provided you follow these instructions: 1. Run your order through the Send Order Wizard. You'll find a tutorial here. The Wizard will ask what service you want (eg Print & Assemble) To View More >>

We reckon it's time to upgrade to PJ Remix. The guys at Team PJ haven't gone final yet, but they must be getting close. Talia from our design department loves it: "Yay for Remix! I've been doing a heap of digital album exports lately and I use a lot of non standard sizes in digital albums. Using Remix I don't need to make any adjustments to the alignment in Photoshop because PJ is now spot on! So much time being saved!" Talia had been holding off because the QuickTime movie function was "too slow", but now that's fixed there's no holding her back. So you know, you can move from PJ Retro to Remix To View More >>

Happy New Year! As I always say, this is a great time of year to reflect. We achieved a lot to be proud of in 2010. As well as our regular software releases, and a user base that grew by another 25% over the year, some of the highlights included: - Queensberry press book integration – our new classroom movie series – and of course our popular weekly webinars... We're not quite so proud of these out-takes from a filming session Nigel and I did for our website home page. But Ian found them pretty funny and made them into a short video. Maybe you'll have a laugh at/with me too. You can click on To View More >>
