Heather and Steve.   Their love can be seen from across the room, easily.  I don’t think one person left their reception that night with any doubts.  They are so in love.  (sigh).  I am so happy for them!

Even though their formals were posted back in July I wanted to do another post to share a few details of their beautiful day.

Have you ever been to a photographer’s website and spent 15 minutes trying to figure out where they are located?  How annoying.  Well…uh..as of this very second, my site does not say what city, heck, even what state I am based out of.  How annoying.  I know.  I have a massive to do list and adding my location to my site is on that list.   So where am I located?  Pleasant Grove, Utah!  I love Utah weddings and Utah Play sessions but I do travel anywhere and everywhere as well.  PG is just my home base.

Anyway,  after 5 years of living in my PG home, I recently discovered that there is this cute little reception center about 5 minutes from me.  So, there’s this pretty dang awesome place that is super booked with weddings and then there’s me, this pretty dang awesome photographer that is also super booked with weddings.  How can it be that our paths have never crossed? 

I contacted Wadley Farms and asked if I could tour their facility.  They happily agreed.  And no, Wadley Farms did not pay me or compensate me in any way for featuring them on my blog.  I just wanted to.  They are literally 5 minutes from my home meaning that not only do I get to cut down on my travel time (a rare thing for me) but you also have the advantage of having a photographer that knows all of the beautiful, secret locations around the area.  Sweet.

So this cute little reception center is called Wadley Farms.  It’s technically in Lindon, UT and this is what it looks like through my eyes.

I love windows.

They are growing a vineyard!  I love vineyards and they aren’t easy to find in Utah.  How nice.

Erica and Jace chose PASSION (perfect name) from the ALL THAT JAZZ collection for their cover leather.  It works perfectly with all of the pops of red in their album.  Nice choice.

I’m like a little girl on christmas morning when I hear the Fedex man at my door. 

Now off to it’s new home with Jace and Erica.  You’ll be missed Franchesca (I name my albums, don’t tell anyone).

Preschoolers.  This is how old Shawn and Shannon were when they first laid eyes on each other.  They didn’t fall in love just then.  They didn’t even hang out with the same friends in high school, but eventually they realized that their lives were not complete without one another and they needed to be together.  Forever.  They really wanted their day to be special and unforgettable so they hopped on a plane and met me in Kauai.  We spent the entire day together, mostly in the rain, and I couldn’t have loved it more.

This post is meant specifically for my brides and grooms that are in the process of ordering their albums.  If this isn’t you the you’ll probably want to skip this post. 

Hi cute brides and grooms!  I CANNOT WAIT to get your album designed and into your arms.  This really truly is one of my favorite things in life! 

Here we go…

STEP 1.  Choose your cover material and email me with your selection.  If you are choosing an upgraded cover were there is an image involved then please include the JPG number of the image you would like used.

STEP 2. Send me an email listing the JPG numbers of your favorite 20-30 images that you would like included in your album and make sure to star the ones that ABSOLUTELY have to be included.  I will do my best to get them in there but also use my best judgement as I go though the design process.  Also please let me know if you would like any family pictures included in the album. 

STEP 3.  Proof your album online.  As soon as I’ve completed your individual album design I will send you a link to view it online.  You will then either OK the album for production or let me know if you would like any images swapped out.

That’s it!  Not too crazy!  Now for the cover options…..

The following 12 collections are your basic collections that are included with the “Popular” wedding package.  Also most upgraded covers require an accent material than you will need to choose from these collections as well if you decide to upgrade.

You can also choose to upgrade to TooTones meaning you would select two cover materials instead of just one.  You can choose where you would like each material.  See options below.  This would be a $60 upgrade for the “Popular” package but is included with the cover upgrade in the “Happily Ever After” package.

Another option is ZuTones.  This option also includes two cover materials but with ZuTones you have the option of choosing your accent material from the Zumanity collection shown below.  This is a $85 upgrade for the “Popular” package and is included with the upgrade in the “Happily Ever After” package.

Another option is the ICE cover.  This is a $125 upgrade with the “Popular” package and included with the upgrade in the “Happily Ever After” package.   I personally love this cover when paired with an image with a bright blue sky.  It’s amazing!

The following is the Armour cover.  It also is a $125 upgrade with the “Popular” package and included with the upgrade in the “Happily Ever After” package.   I definately recommend this if you would like a black and white image to be used as your cover image.

Magical Mystery Glass is amazing!  It is also a $125 upgrade with the “Popular” package and included with the upgrade in the “Happily Ever After” package.  Make sure you specify if you would like Dark and Bronzy (SEXY) or Muted and Murky.

Erotika is yet another option.  It looks great if you have a very textured, colorful image.  For example, if you were in front of a rusted car…EROTIKA.  It is a $175 upgrade with the “Popular” package and included with the upgrade in the “Happily Ever After” package. 

That’s all folks!  If you have any questions at all please send emails to info@camillabinks.com

Have fun choosing!

My Wish Was To Marry You.  Kallee and Taylor wrote this to eachother and their wish came true a few weeks ago.  How adorable is that?  Wait until you reach the part in this post where you see the frame containing their promise notes to eachother.  I had a slight heart attack when I saw them.  How romantic. <3

Heather, you left these in my car so I guess it means they’re mine.  Score.

Ok, not really.  Swing by anytime and pick them up.  Hope you’re having the world’s best time on your honeymoon.  I don’t doubt you are!
