Last year I had decided to not include any wedding albums in my packages. This way, married couples could choose how they wanted their photos to be delivered. They had the choice between a simple download of the HD photos or they could choose to get a high-end wedding album. I have now decided to take a step back and to include a wedding album in all of my packages<\/strong>. I’ll explain why.<\/p>\n

The story of you wedding<\/h3>\n

I recently changed the name of my website to Jolie Histoire, <\/em>that’s French for Pretty Story<\/em>. Amongst the various reasons behind this choice, the way I see wedding photography stands out: telling the story of your day in the most beautiful way by capturing moments<\/strong> while following a storyline. In my opinion this is important for recreating the emotions of this very special day<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

I believe that flipping trough photos on a computer screen – let alone on a smartphone – does not allow recreating these emotions. In order to respect that storyline I’ve mentioned, it makes sense to thoroughly select your photos. And for that purpose the edition of a wedding album by your photographer<\/strong> remains the best choice.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, I have noticed that most couples did not want me to create their album. Reasons are generally the same ones:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. they don’t see the point of such an album<\/li>\n
  2. they see the point but they want to make it by themselves<\/li>\n
  3. they do not have enough budget for a high-end album<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I think it’s a shame to let the bride & groom make their own album. First, most albums available on mainstream website are of bad quality. The high-end wedding album I can make are strictly dedicated to professional photographers. Second, does it not feel like buying and wrapping your own Christmas gift ? I think it does \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

    I have therefore modified my packages in order to be more in line with my philosophy of wedding photography<\/strong> and also to give satisfaction to couples who understand how important the photo album is.<\/p>\n

    Keeping it affordable<\/h3>\n

    I am fully aware that not all newlyweds have the same budget<\/strong>. This is why I have expanded my range of albums.<\/p>\n
