When your first ever album order catches Queensberry’s eye you’ve got to be pretty pleased with yourself. Especially when you designed it in a program you’ve never used before. Keryn Sweeney of Keryn Maree Photographer recently opened her studio in Auckland, New Zealand, and shot and designed this little gem as a studio sample for the beauty side of her business - an area she’s had plenty of experience in. Keryn recognises the benefits of offering her clients albums, but although she'd come from a well-established beauty and glamour studio she'd never used them before. When it came to To View More >>

While we were finalising our wedding album, our photographer asked us what I thought was an insignificant question. Having received the album, I now understand why, and I think it's important. The question soon, but first the back-story. The first time my wife Kayla and I saw our photographs was as a slideshow. If you've ever seen one of Johannes' slideshows, you'll know how beautiful they are. We were drawn in by the imagery, the music, the timing.

I recently held a small workshop in the UK at the studio of Zoe Richards just out of Liverpool. It was intimate (there were only nine of us). We discussed album design and particularly spoke about the Musée. One of the ideas of that album is to create a feeling of intimacy. The resounding lesson from our discussion was about that and simplicity. Too often people cram images into albums to the point where there is no room to rest your eyes. The Musée design uses space to reinforce the luxury and quality feel of the product. There is something exciting about an intimate moment in a cupboard but To View More >>

Angelique Buckley and her boss Mike Kehr of mk Photography have earned the respect of Photojunction developers over the years for their eagerness to share insight, suggestions, advice and encouragement about beta versions of Photojunction. 1) Why do you and Mike have such an interest in the development of Photojunction Remix? Angelique: "We are design junkies in the studio. Combine that with everyone's love of technology and it is inevitable. I am a fixer and can't stand things that aren't JUST RIGHT. When I first tried Remix, it was clear that it was better than the original Photojunction for To View More >>
