If you’ve hired a professional photographer before, you would know that ordering an album from a professional photographer is not the cheapest.  This is why I didn’t include an album in our wedding photography package.  I figured I could do it myself.  However, most album companies only cater to professional photographers.  So I did more research and found PhotoBookGirl.com.

PhotoBookGirl.com is a great resource for consumer photo books.  It includes reviews, a very useful comparison tool, and coupons!  It also helps that PhotoBookGirl takes beautiful photos.

We’ve always wanted a beach wedding, but we weren’t able to.  We had a wedding by the water, but a wonderful one nonetheless.  While I was researching things to do in Hawaii for our honeymoon, it came to me to do a sort of a honeymoon/trash-the-dress photo shoot.  The beaches in Hawaii are just gorgeous and the honeymoon is the perfect opportunity to have our new life documented on a beach when we weren’t able to at our wedding.

I am so excited to have found a great photographer based in Maui, Aihara Visuals.  Just look at her photos.  I can’t wait!

Since I got my first digital camera, I never used another film camera again.  Digital was just easy, convenient and more affordable.  And with Photoshop, there are just so many possibilities.

Recently, I have come across many wedding photos captured on film and I can’t believe how I’ve forgotten how beautiful they can be.  They’re natural, magical, and the colors are very romantic.  I’m in-love!

Canditto is a new and convenient way of getting copies of your guests’ photos of your wedding. A lot of guests carry digital cameras to weddings nowadays. And Canditto lets them easily share their photos with you right before they leave on your wedding day. No more waiting for them to send or upload them!

Aylee Bits readers get $50 off with promo code 752834429.

My first concern is that guests might be a little hesitant copying their photos into the machine even though it only copies photos taken for the past 8 hours. My second concern is the price. At $450 ($400 with the coupon) for a week rental, brides might just opt for the free online photo-sharing sites where guests can upload their photos.

Making decisions is the hardest part of wedding planning for me.  It took us months before deciding on our venue.  I’ve been back and forth on our wedding colors.  And as the planning progresses, I haven’t been looking forward to researching other vendors and deciding who to book.

Last weekend was another decision-making moment for us.  We met with a couple of photographers.  Fortunately, unlike our venue saga, we were able to decide within a day and book Melissa Robotti!

Not only are Melissa’s rates reasonable, she is adorable!  We knocked on her door and a cheery woman in her socks opened the door.  We were at ease with her right away.  I am confident that she is capable of making John (who hates getting his photos taken) feel comfortable.

What I love about her photography…
