Digital Negatives vs. Wedding AlbumMarch 15th, 2011

It goes without saying that we became misty eyed when Heather presented us with our completed album. It is something that we will treasure forever. The bride and groom would naturally be pleased with an album featuring themselves on their special day, but what would the tougher critics aka our parents think? They were nothing short of amazed. We heard a lot of “We have never seen anything like this!” My mother said it is “Absolutely the most beautiful wedding album ever!” In complete seriousness my Grandmother offered to buy us a new coffee table for the sole purpose of displaying our Wedding Album! If those aren’t the words of a satisfied customer, I don’t know what is!
