Personally, I've had nothing to do with school photographers since I lined up for my own class photos, but I do pay attention to what Queensberry's clients do, and they're an important subset of our customer base. I think there's a lot to learn from them because they're serious about business and big on "systems". They need to be, given that a school gig might involve dozens of classes, each with thirty-odd kids, most of them with parents — potential customers — whom they've never met. Imagine if the way it worked was that they all emailed, To View More >>

Isn't technology great? A decade ago "photo books" were a wonder. I can create one-off books! Printed on both sides! Like a glossy magazine! We loved them too, and launched Q Books in 2010. But now photo books are … just a glossy magazine! Commodity products with prices to match. Mostly sold direct to consumers, meaning very little value in them for photographers… Something for people who get their photography on a flashdrive. Q Books still look great, as beautifully printed and bound as our albums, but for a couple of years the trend has been To View More >>

Truth be told, a relaxed, fun, summer nuptial in the Georgia countryside sounds like absolute bliss to me. Bevin and Chris wed at the charming Farmhouse at Persimmon Creek, and who better to photograph their day than Atlanta-based photographer Buffy Dekmar. Check out their gorgeous Overlay matted album below... Buffy's album design is elegant and well-balanced. Overlay matted albums mix traditional album presentation with simplicity. The pages are clean-edged, with overlay mats.
