3 Sample Wedding Album MISTAKES to Avoid

Ah, sample wedding albums. I’ll be honest that I’ve wasted a TON of money on sample books over the years. I’ve also made mistakes on what wedding photos I put in them. However, engaged couples need to feel and touch wedding albums so they know what they are investing in for their heirlooms.

Today I share 3 Dos and Don'ts of wedding album sample books and also how to afford new sample wedding albums each and every year.

The biggest mistake that I made was ordering a VERY expensive sample album and putting a variety of weddings in it 🤦🏻‍♀️🤬 (early in my career too!).

So, not only is it really dated work, but I can’t even give it to anyone because it’s multiple weddings.

However, the best thing I ever did was to start taking photos of all of my albums so I need fewer examples of covers & styles. 💃🏽
