Our Beautiful Coffee Table Book
One of the most frequently asked questions from our clients I get all the time right after showing them our online galleries is:”what do I do with all these images???”There are so many ways to enjoy your memories that are captured as images. Like: wall displays, digital files, making photo charm necklaces, slide shows on a DVD… etc. But there is nothing like making a coffee table book like below. It is my specialty - I love to design ”one of a kind custom design books” for you. 
I will ask you what your favorite images are from the gallery and make designs with them. Usually I can include all images from the gallery. Yes! I said ALL images. But sometimes, (if you have more than the usual number of images in the gallery), I will have to leave some out.The book shown is a 12×12 album and has 30 pages. It is beautifully printed on professional photographic paper and mounted on 2mm heavy weight leaves. I usually bring this album to the sessions so that you can view and feel the beauty of this product. I just wanted to show you a sneak peek of it today as I send this out to the client.Isn’t it something???-k

remembering project
Yep! These are a few page samples of yellowhale REAL-LIFE DESIGN ALBUM. Some clients ask me if I can design their own picture book. - it is like a digital scrap book and is awesome. 8×10 flush mounted beautifully hand made album - same quality as our LIFESTYLE COFFEE TABLE BOOK. It also comes in a thick hard cover with custom design photo + title. I wish I can show you this coffee table book in person. - You will be suprized to see its amazing quality and workmanship! ( I gaurantee that you’ve never seen it before, becaues it is made exclusively for Yellowhale!)
This book just came out beautifully and these page designs were saved as base templates for my future REMEMBERING PROJECT.
Each image shown here is one spread (2 pages). In other words, you are seeing four pages in a row.
This particular client had so much great photos (by herself) and poems and all (her own) that all the contents of this album is hers except layout design (by me). They live in overseas and asked me to come to have a session this fall. This album was to celebrate her first birthday by gathering over 200 pictures of her everyday lives from birth to first birthday party. Now she has a little sister, too!
I think it is so wonderful to have such a memory book because it contains real life of relatively longer period of time. And so many different location. Some of other project I had done are
“the family trip” - someone who lived overseas for two years gathered all pictures from the trip
“my first year” - I did so many of them…
“our date” - a couple who dated many years before their marriage. their first travel, many dinner, etc…
Custom design like these take so much effort and time and LOVE!!!!! No page is the same. Every page will be designed by all the pictures given. Each picture is enhanced in color, exposure and cropped by imaging expert. Hard copy pictures will be scanned professionally. The print and binding quality is state of art.
and by all means, if you do have lots of pictures yourself and are interested in having a nice qulity memory book, hey! you might be my next project. (Please note that only few projects can be accepted/year. I work on these only during the months of Jan~March.)
