It&#8217;s for your own efforts to hold on to what&#8217;s true<br />
My comfort and my glory are shaken when I see<br />
That my life&#8217;s not a story about me</p></blockquote>
<p>Love you guys!</p>

<div>Click to play the show for the full wedding day laugh-a-palooza!  Starting in the &#8216;attic&#8217; at the Esperanza Mansion for this destination wedding in the finger lakes of New York.  After hair disasters returned from the local salon was heroically able to re-do them in time.  So we moved on to Saint Michaels Church at 210 Keuka Street in Penn Yan for the celebration of their marriage mass.  Rain followed us, but God held up his end of his contract with me and pulled out the sunshine in time for portraits with the bride and groom atop the hills surrounding the lake.  As we arrived at cocktail hour in the tent at Esperanza, you could feel the party energy building and we dove in like good obedient photojournalists and rode the wave all through the night!</div>

<p>What is a moment?<br />
What is artistic photography?</p>
<p>So many brides come to me and their first question is how many hours, when I ask myself how many moments?  Brides ask how many pictures, and I ask myself how many of my pictures, can change your expectations of pictures, teach you about the wondrous human spirit?</p>
<p>In artistic terms it&#8217;s a picture that asks the viewer what is going on, asks the viewer to &#8216;wonder&#8217; about the hand.  In composition class we&#8217;re taught to look for &#8216;closure&#8217; whether the elements of a composition are touching or not touching, as it determines whether there is &#8216;peace&#8217; or &#8216;tension&#8217;.  In this incredible photograph I am able to combine both features of closure in a tender asking mood that invites you to live in wonder with the photograph.  Most people strive for open eyes in pictures &#8211; but I&#8217;m striving to give you more than usual in my pictures. Here in this picture I ask you to connect with the peace created by closed eyes and contrast it with the tension of mother&#8217;s hand just lifted from touching her son and let your heart open up in the process.</p>
<p>Can I meet your expectations? in pictures &#8211; sure, but you can hire a lot of photographers that will do that&#8230;open yourself up to the experience of fine art, and be prepared to look deep into your wedding images!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I traveled to Sandbridge beach Virginia to observe Blair and Levi&#8217;s small intimate beach house wedding on a saturday in May, and came back with these images:</p>
<p><object id="showit_swf" width="980" height="670" data="http://makelovereal.net/shows/sandbridge-VA/showit.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"><param name="movie" value="http://makelovereal.net/shows/sandbridge-VA/showit.swf" /><param name="flashvars" value="showit_embed=http://makelovereal.net/shows/sandbridge-VA/|980|670|1|0|0" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="salign" value="LT" /><param name="menu" value="false" /><param name="loop" value="false" /><param name="quality" value="best" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#3F3F3F" /></object></p>
<p>Blair was excited to meet me on the wedding day after all the phonecalls:<br />
<a title="Sandbridge Virginia Beach Wedding Photographer by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/5787513014/"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3468/5787513014_18c47b71cb_o.jpg" alt="Sandbridge Virginia Beach Wedding Photographer" width="979" height="653" /></a></p>
<p>Excited to be a bride:<br />
<a title="Sandbridge Virginia Beach Wedding Photographer by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/5786955059/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3408/5786955059_6c42d78351_o.jpg" alt="Sandbridge Virginia Beach Wedding Photographer" width="435" height="653" /></a></p>
<p>Her Dad has obviously been proud for years:<br />

<p>Beach weddings are romantic:<br />
<a title="Sandbridge Virginia Beach Wedding Photographer by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/5786979017/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2640/5786979017_b34852f551_o.jpg" alt="Sandbridge Virginia Beach Wedding Photographer" width="979" height="653" /></a></p>
<p>But I always have to remind people how extreme the wind and sea-spray is!  Levi hold&#8217;s down the sand with his studly pose while Blair floats over it like the pixie she is:<br />
<a title="Sandbridge Virginia Beach Wedding Photographer by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/5786981101/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2753/5786981101_099a80295e_o.jpg" alt="Sandbridge Virginia Beach Wedding Photographer" width="979" height="653" /></a></p>
<p>The eyes have it:<br />

<p>And so does the kiss:<br />

<p>A question I often hear from brides is &#8221; Have you ever been to the ________ before&#8221; and while I&#8217;ve photographed over 250 weddings in a 10+ year career as of this writing; my career has evolved to a wildly decentralized clientele.  And I like that, I appreciate that, and I rise to the challenge of exploring new locations every time I go out to shoot.  I explain how my internal psyche and temperament make it good for me, but let me expound on a few of the tricks where the video left off with this image:</p>
<p><img title="Romantic Charleston SC wedding photographer" src="http://makelovereal.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/0002-romantic-charleston-wedding-photos.jpg" alt="Romantic Charleston SC wedding photographer" width="980" height="653" /></p>
<p>The venue is unimportant, the place isn&#8217;t either &#8211; the feeling is everything</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve shot 6 or 8 weddings at this venue, but it&#8217;s the trust I&#8217;ve built with my clients that shows through in the creation of their images</p>
<p><img title="Romantic Charleston SC wedding photographer" src="http://makelovereal.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/0001-romantic-charleston-wedding-photos.jpg" alt="Romantic Charleston SC wedding photographer" width="980" height="653" /></p>
<p>Why? do you want a picture of what it feels like to fall into the arms of your beloved at the end of the night&#8230;then choose me to shoot your wedding and we&#8217;ll find these places, places of comfort and stillness in your relationship that we can make pictures to document</p>

<p>Logistically, it&#8217;s nice if you&#8217;re staying at the same place where your reception is happening.  And logistically, I&#8217;ll help you find side alleys and funky spots&#8230;if you have a more mischievous side, we can express it:</p>

<p>Boulder Colorado is a great town with active healthy people and mountains nearby for picturesque vistas or backgrounds.</p>
<p>The Colorado Chautauqua has presented programs every summer since 1898 including lectures, music, cinema, adult education classes, and nondenominational sermons. Its grounds, including the historic Chautauqua Auditorium, are located about a mile south of downtown Boulder.  In recent years the Colorado Chautauqua has become a year-round operation. When Chautauqua Park originated, it was part of a large, nation-wide Chautauqua movement. Chautauquas were traveling educational shows that traveled to different communities across the U.S. performing shows. At the peak of the Chautauqua movement in the 1920s, there were more than 200 Chautauquas around the U.S.</p>
<p>I have photographed at the New York Chautauqua institute for 8 years and I would love to photograph your professional portrait session or wedding at the Colorado Institution.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">I suppose that the quality of the hug is a nice visual clue as to the quality of the relationship, and our bride shares tenderness and joy with her grandma and we capture it in her pictures.<span id="more-2628"></span></p>
<p><a title="Emotional Glen Iris Wedding by New York Photojournalist by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4768498166/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4094/4768498166_f50f0b14d8_o.jpg" alt="Emotional Glen Iris Wedding by New York Photojournalist" width="979" height="653" /></a></p>
<p>And we&#8217;re there to capture it in the funny moments too &#8211; here grandpa is intent on showing the bride his moves, while the groom is all grins with grandma.</p>

<p>Grandpa must be pretty good too, as the bride shares a laugh at his verve and twirling moves.</p>
<p><a title="Emotional Glen Iris Wedding by New York Photojournalist by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4768500266/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4114/4768500266_e50cc2c340_o.jpg" alt="Emotional Glen Iris Wedding by New York Photojournalist" width="979" height="653" /></a></p>
<p>Grandpa was a true character, I know because I was seated with him for dinner and he boasted about how great his grandkids were the entire meal.  He also gave all the credit for his snappy outfit, and coordinating colors &#8211; to his wife&#8217;s shopping ability.  Totally cracked me up, but I hope it&#8217;s a decent illustration of how I get into the story of your wedding day. I share stories and laughs with the guests and those close to you so that I have some inside knowledge and personal rapport when it comes time to get the shot that describes your relationship with those at your wedding.  I hope this has been a good illustration of why most of our clients don&#8217;t ask for a lot of group pictures because they know that we will be shooting the meaningful pictures that illustrate your relationships the whole day long.  So your close relationships will be documented both in candid photos &#8211; as well as posed.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Why am I made to be a good wedding photographer?
A few of the answers might be endurance, for working 12+ hour days: Drive, to find unique moments every time - deal with new environments each wedding - and zest to grab life by the horns and ride. Most people like a steady job, with usual, predictable tasks - unfortunately I'm not made like that....or fortunately for you, I've found my niche and calling to marry the low attention span with high levels of challenge in a job that forces me to be my best - every time. It's wild fun and I love that I'm perfectly made for it!]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Get to know your photographer: Neil</p>
<iframe style="background:#000000;" src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/19414670?title=0&amp;byline=0&amp;portrait=1&amp;color=ffffff&amp;autoplay=0&amp;loop=0" width="980" height="551" frameborder="0"></iframe>
<p>Here are are few questions I answer a lot:<span id="more-2616"></span></p>
<p><strong>Q: Why do you travel SO MUCH?</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Mostly because the cost of advertising is one of the highest costs of doing business in an industry that has 100% turnover in clientelle for each job.  So, since I have been photographing weddings for 10+ years, my satisfied clients are living all over the country &#8211; so satisfied that they recommend their amazing experience to their friends &#8211; and it&#8217;s more cost effective for me to travel to them &#8211; than to try and aquire a new customer through other means.  Also &#8211; I love it!  I love being in new places and working with new people &#8211; so it is not stressful to me like it is to some people. So if you are looking for a photographer willing to go to your New Zealand mountain top wedding-I may be one of the few willing and able.  One other related reason, is that I am very active in my professional network so photographers who wish to give potential clients a list of references, may send my name &#8211; and as I know photographers from Maine to California &#8211; I get a few more weddings out of my neighborhood.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Q: What will you do if you&#8217;re sick or can&#8217;t make it?</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>I will call someone in my professional network to fill my place.  So far in well over 200 weddings I have never missed a single one.  I invest in my health and fitness as the best insurance for my job.  In one wedding in the last 10 years my second photographer was sick, and I was able to find two well qualified photographers to help me fill the spot of second photographer.  In two other weddings where I had the equivalent of a head cold, and still photographed the entire event, I hired a second photographer at my own personal expense to cover the wedding with me just incase I got tired or wasn&#8217;t as sharp.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Q: Was this in January 2011?</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Yes, to all my NY clients watching this &#8211; I spend my winters in the South because a week gone by without running 20-30miles and my body gets itchy and scratchy and while today Feb 1, 2012 there is a historically massive snowstorm covering from Oklahoma to Maine &#8211; I&#8217;ll be headed to the gym in a single long sleeve shirt.  And if cramps hadn&#8217;t ended my interview so quickly &#8211; I would have teased you all about it! :p</p></blockquote>
<p>Thanks for watching and reading! I look forward to being your photographer soon!!!</p>
<h4 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">&#8220;Let the beauty of what you love be what you do&#8221; &#8211; Rumi</span></h4>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today I bring up the lead image for NeilCowley.com in the <a href="http://makelovereal.net/c/themes/one-moment/">One Moment theme</a></p>
<p><a title="Classic wedding photojournalism - bride with single tear by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/3972200250/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2520/3972200250_b5d9259b1c_o.jpg" alt="Classic wedding photojournalism - bride with single tear" width="979" height="653" /></a></p>
<p>In this theme we bring up a single image, and discuss it&#8230;</p>
<blockquote><p>would having this image from your wedding be enough?</p></blockquote>
<p>As an accomplished photographer of 10 years, the basic observation is not enough &#8211; as I seek to shoot images tied together in slideshows lasting 10minutes and longer, and designed together in albums 50, 60 and 70 pages long.  Once in a while the preparation, determination and focus unite &#8211; and I receive the blessing and satisfaction of capturing One Moment <strong>fully</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">One tear,</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">overcoming the bottom eyelid,</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">a perfect illustration the heart of the bride,</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">overflowing with joy on her wedding day.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not sure if such a perfect moment exists in each wedding day, but I work to be observant and sensitive and tender and clever enough to notice <em>The Moment</em> of your wedding.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Take a look at Greatchen and Dan&#8217;s wedding album!</p>
<p><a href="http://makelovereal.net/charlotte-artistic-wedding-album-design/" title="Permanent Link to Gretchen and Dan&#8217;s wedding album">Here a SimpleViewer Flash gallery should be displayed. Click here to open the post in your browser to see the gallery.</a></p>
<blockquote><p>Here&#8217;s Gretchen&#8217;s comments from the design process &#8211; which she gave no input on &#8211; just let me do my thing:</p>
<p>First, THANK YOU! It&#8217;s even more perfect than we imagined!!! I&#8217;m all misty. Second, we have exactly ONE change to request: Dan would like to include the photo of him and the best man chest-bumping &#8220;backstage.&#8221;</p>
<p>Have you fainted yet? I know, I know, an immediate, low maintenance reply! Shockingly on-time. (It&#8217;s the only completion I&#8217;ve managed today.) I figure we owe it to you.</p>
<p>Thanks so much for all your patience, and your talent. Dan just kept shaking his head as I paged through the design, saying &#8220;He&#8217;s just so good!&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Dan &#8211; it takes a good man to know one!  I do want to put a sideline note in about my beloved bride Gretchen, a self described &#8216;type A&#8217; as you can see from the lists and flow charts that decorated the background of page 2.  Gretchen took my advice about not stressing over the album image selection, and was thoroughly pleased with the results.  You may want to select your album images, but the process is often more rewarding when the design flows from how the pictures best fit together.</p>
<p>A few of my favorite spreads and some comments on them:</p>
<p><a title="Charlotte North Carolina Artisti Wedding Album Design by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4516653515/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4067/4516653515_49d390ea8e_o.jpg" alt="Charlotte North Carolina Artisti Wedding Album Design" width="980" height="498" /></a></p>
<p>This spread from the opening moments of the ceremony is an engaging peek into Dan&#8217;s excitement, Gretchen grinning behind the doors, and walking down the isle taking Dan&#8217;s breath away, and drawing a tear from the groomsmaid.  The iconic shot of Gretchen&#8217;s tweaked nervous smile from behind the hall doors, gives a huge visual splash to the carefully observed moments of the beginning of the ceremony.  I shot this wedding alone, and I find it very satisfying to shoot the big epic graphics, and complement it with great storytelling shots to make you look closer at the page!</p>
<p><a title="Charlotte North Carolina Artistic Wedding Album Design by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4516651367/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2719/4516651367_31f0445cbe_o.jpg" alt="Charlotte North Carolina Artistic Wedding Album Design" width="980" height="498" /></a></p>
<p>A moment in time &#8211; or a story across time.  I often try to tell stories in my pictures, but sometimes I can tell time too!!  But seriously, how else could you see how much fun Gretchen has with her dress, and Dan?  Good solid album design comes from good solid ideas while we&#8217;re shooting.  I often describe the process of &#8216;posing&#8217; for me, more like acting for a movie&#8211;and this is why.  Good action, helps you forget  your nervousness, be natural in your expressions, and let loose with some fun.  Cheers to great results in your album design.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Deanna finally approves her wedding album!</p>
<p><a href="http://makelovereal.net/custom-album-design/" title="Permanent Link to Deanna &amp; William&#8217;s custom designed album">Here a SimpleViewer Flash gallery should be displayed. Click here to open the post in your browser to see the gallery.</a></p>
<p>Sweet success indeed for this well planned, wonderful event.  Catch the blended storylines in this intricately designed and textured wedding album design.</p>
<p>Here are a couple of my favorite speads:</p>
<p><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2745/4443308591_6e89f6a6d2_o.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Here Deanna is coming down the isle (which is a narrow row of cedar bushes) and my three shots on the left show her finding, posing and receiving the roses from her groom; which the key shot on the right is coming into view of the guests for the first time and was shot by the assistant photographer.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4021/4444086568_b9579dbf16_o.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>The first dace spread is a free flowing sequence that really tells about the interpersonal and environmental space is a freeform design over time.  To me this is the most gratifying way to view the wedding photos &#8211; and it&#8217;s also without color.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4068/4443317031_6ce7aca366_o.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Which leads us into the next spread &#8211; which is all about color, the emotion and mood of their after dinner portrait session in the field.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">&#8230;with their Chirstmas card and save the date combo.  Here is me holding their limited edition Christmas card, custom designed by me:<span id="more-2238"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Professional wedding photographer with custom designed album by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4102070446/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2447/4102070446_c1eae51499_o.jpg" alt="Professional wedding photographer with custom designed album" width="980" height="653" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Professional wedding photographer with custom designed album by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4102070224/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2713/4102070224_462a7f229e_o.jpg" alt="Professional wedding photographer with custom designed album" width="980" height="653" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Professional wedding photographer with custom designed album by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4102070004/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2615/4102070004_cd51eeb54f_o.jpg" alt="Professional wedding photographer with custom designed album" width="980" height="653" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Heather and Drew were overjoyed with the complements they received from family, friends and even the rescue organization that they got their dogs from that they had me do their save the date cards as well.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Charlotte NC custom wedding invitation design by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4101325413/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2621/4101325413_0681512d7e_o.jpg" alt="Charlotte NC custom wedding invitation design" width="980" height="653" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">From the save the date postcard which used photographic imagery, Heather decided to take the rest of the suite minimalist to match her wedding decor and theme.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Charlotte NC custom wedding invitation design by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4101324463/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2643/4101324463_8e561999cc_o.jpg" alt="Charlotte NC custom wedding invitation design" width="980" height="653" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Save the date on the right, menu card on the left.  The paper stock is a pearlescent metallic finish that even though chocolate brown, give a shine to the color.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Charlotte NC wedding menu, placecard, invitation design by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4384528589/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4004/4384528589_bfa2b126d4_o.jpg" alt="Charlotte NC wedding menu, placecard, invitation design" width="979" height="653" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">And here&#8217;s what it looks like in the placesetting!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Del Frisco's wedding reception photographs Southpark Charlotte Photographer by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4052134062/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2629/4052134062_a186822090_o.jpg" alt="Del Frisco's wedding reception photographs Southpark Charlotte Photographer" width="979" height="653" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Heather wanted a monogram to tie the pieces together, and with 10 years of design experience I didn&#8217;t find that hard to accomplish with style.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Del Frisco's wedding reception photographs Southpark Charlotte Photographer by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4051390811/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2452/4051390811_cd388d148d_o.jpg" alt="Del Frisco's wedding reception photographs Southpark Charlotte Photographer" width="979" height="653" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Charlotte NC wedding menu, placecard, invitation design by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4385290648/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4026/4385290648_ef489a0d0a_o.jpg" alt="Charlotte NC wedding menu, placecard, invitation design" width="435" height="653" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The name tags and menu blended in wonderfully with the rich chocolate color scheme.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Charlotte NC wedding menu, placecard, invitation design by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4385292454/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4003/4385292454_9d8d079ff3_o.jpg" alt="Charlotte NC wedding menu, placecard, invitation design" width="435" height="653" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Charlotte NC wedding menu, placecard, invitation design by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4385292218/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2715/4385292218_d427f68109_o.jpg" alt="Charlotte NC wedding menu, placecard, invitation design" width="979" height="653" /></a></p>
<h4>The Invitations</h4>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Charlotte NC custom wedding invitation design by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4101322783/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2751/4101322783_dacefa1cb4_o.jpg" alt="Charlotte NC custom wedding invitation design" width="980" height="653" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The invitation design used a fashionable panorama fold on the left of the 5&#215;7&#8243; card.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Charlotte NC custom wedding invitation design by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4102077966/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2768/4102077966_3eed4b5ed5_o.jpg" alt="Charlotte NC custom wedding invitation design" width="980" height="653" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Inside, flowing blocks of text communicate the details to the guests.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Charlotte NC custom wedding invitation design by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4102079078/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2644/4102079078_86862c3425_o.jpg" alt="Charlotte NC custom wedding invitation design" width="980" height="653" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Here the response card design is shown front and back (back side blurry) as it was printed in creme white and slipped into the invitation&#8217;s fold.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Charlotte NC custom wedding invitation design by Neil Cowley, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4102078644/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2604/4102078644_46d737319d_o.jpg" alt="Charlotte NC custom wedding invitation design" width="980" height="653" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here&#8217;s a good look at Kelly and Tom&#8217;s 70 page Make Love Real album design:</p>
<p><a href="http://makelovereal.net/buffalo-ny-wedding-album/" title="Permanent Link to Kelly &amp; Tom&#8217;s Buffalo NY wedding album">Here a SimpleViewer Flash gallery should be displayed. Click here to open the post in your browser to see the gallery.</a></p>
<p>Here are a couple of my favorite spreads:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4102431700/" title="Outdoor wedding photographers album Buffalo NY by Neil Cowley, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2531/4102431700_6c372d630b_o.jpg" width="980" height="498" alt="Outdoor wedding photographers album Buffalo NY" /></a></p>
<p>If you&#8217;ll give me a moment to talk about the elements of design we use in our albums &#8211; in this horizontal spread, I cropped the images in a tight panoramic 1:5 format to show the tight moments of the bride and groom placing the rings on each otherâ€™s fingers. The tight spacing and blurred edges allow for a quick â€˜readâ€™ of the eye across the page. That emphasis is heightened by the horizontal bars of color running through the background of the image at the grooms eye height and the bride&#8217;s ring height. The lines tie together the separate pictures with implied continuation of line that I â€˜feltâ€™ between the photos while laying them out.  This extra amount of care and attention brings your album to life telling the visual stories of your wedding.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4101681525/" title="Outdoor wedding photographers album Buffalo NY by Neil Cowley, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2771/4101681525_e4c631b525_o.jpg" width="980" height="498" alt="Outdoor wedding photographers album Buffalo NY" /></a></p>
<p>In this spread we use the design element of a light vignette to tie together and soften the overall page design, can you see the subtle darkening at the coreners?</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/makelovereal/4101678771/" title="Outdoor wedding photographers album Buffalo NY by Neil Cowley, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2720/4101678771_bb3384e99a_o.jpg" width="980" height="498" alt="Outdoor wedding photographers album Buffalo NY" /></a></p>
<p>And if you&#8217;re looking for a creative photographer, look at how we tie the action of the day into the album design!  We&#8217;re wiling to see the whole day for what it is, without presuppositions about what wedding photography &#8216;should be&#8217; &#8211; so we notice the littlest things that make your wedding yours!  (did you notice the bee on the clover in the above spread? &#8211; I know it&#8217;s hard on the web, but we noticed it and shot it!)</p>
<p>Enjoy your album Kelly and Tom.<br />

<p>Today&#8217;s small dream,<br />
was ignited by a child<br />
who didn&#8217;t want to be photographed<br />
&#8220;no flash photography allowed&#8221;<br />
she spouted over and over again<br />
looking at me out of the corner of her eye<br />
each time<br />
hoping<br />
running away to be chased<br />
covering her face<br />
for the excitement of being exposed<br />
who knows how needy she was to be noticed<br />
how much her heart needed to feel beautiful<br />
but she brought beauty into my world<br />
with a giant yellow leaf</p>

<p>The best of man is like water,<br />
Which benefits all things, and does not contend with them,<br />
Which flows in places that others disdain,<br />
Where it is in harmony with the Way.</p>
<p>So the sage:<br />
Lives within nature,<br />
Thinks within the deep,<br />
Gives within impartiality,<br />
Speaks within trust,<br />
Governs within order,<br />
Crafts within ability,<br />
Acts within opportunity.</p>
<p>He does not contend, and none contend against him.</p>
