Ask yourself......... What's My Style!!!!!:)

What's your Style !!!!!!!!
While our hope is that you love and enjoy all of our designs, we understand that not everyone shares the same design preference. That is why Albumesque is happy to offer three different types of design styles, and we leave it to you to decide which one best fits your needs! So, what’s your style?

Le Simple
Some believe that less is more! Simple designs, simple borders--or no borders at all!...it’s your call! :) With no overlapping or layering, this classic design leaves lasting impressions.

Le Layer
Layers can be fun! This design option utilizes more complex layouts, creatively layering images and including fades. With the addition of colors and borders, you can add a whole new dynamic to your album!

Le Mix
Mix it up! For the indecisive, or for those who simply love the look of both! :) Le Mix is our "combination" design, offering elements from both Le Layer and Le Simple. With this design you will find overlapping, but no fades.

Le Layered Design Style





As many of you know, Albumesque offers three different design styles. Le Simple, Le Mix, and Le Layered. Our amazing designer Denise designs almost all of the Le Layered and she does an outstanding job with that type of style. I will try to post a few other Le Layered designs next week. Below is an album that she designed for Melissa Quijano. A photographer who we are so privileged and thankful to be designing for.

If you have any questions about the Le Layered designs you can e-mail

info@albumesque.com or amy@albumesque.com and someone will get back to you shortly.


Have a wonderful weekend!

Keeping up with Dane Sanders














Designing to me has to be one of the most relaxing things, I would say it falls right under running:) Designing is also very exciting as well. I love receiving an order and opening the folder to see what that photographer has captured for that event. One photographer that always inspires me and blows me away is Dane Sanders. Dane travels all over for wedding photography and I love seeing where he's been. For the last two weddings he was sent to Hawaii for one and Mexico for another. The images were breath taking and I can't wait to post the Mexico wedding as well. Not only is Dane busy with weddings, but he also runs a forum, keeps up with his blog and just finished writing a book called "Fast Track Photographer".

For Dane I design 10x14 vertical flushmount, LeatherCraftsmen albums. LC does a great job and I would highly recommend checking them out.

I'm always asked what album company I would recommend and as of right now I would say that Leathercraftsmen and Kiss Wedding Books are two of my favorite album companies. I'm also looking into the Couture Books. As a designer I don't really get to see very many of the end products but I saw a few of their albums at WPPI and I was impressed.

For this album I designed the Le MIx album design style, just in case a few of you were wondering:)

Enjoy! Also, don't forget to check out Dane's amazing website and blog. Definitely watch the beginning intro to his site:)
