am i the only one who believes in simplicity in album design? i havent had an album order but i would do 1-2 images per page except for certain things like bridal party headshots but even then i would keep everything in neat grids.

i think overlays and other crazy stuff are cheezy. here is an example of something i did in photoshop in 15 min.

For some of the brides, this is a bit too simple.
Otherwise, i like it!

i tend to go for a high-fashion style... go check out the louis vuitton website or prada... its all very simple. also go look at the WPPI album winners. the first place album winner only had photos on the right side of the spread and they were all centrally placed with no borders and only 1 photo per page. its about the images not the design gimmicks.

I'm totally with you on that serg...too many people try to make up for images that are lacking by using all kinds of text, crazy layout, flourishes, etc. simplicity is so underrated.

+1

Text and all that other crap in an album makes me want to barf. I like Jim Garner's style of album design.
