Waiting List for 2012

Thank you for taking the time to visit my design site! I am taking a limited number of new blog book clients for 2012. Please contact me so we can discuss whether I am a good fit for your project. Large blog book projects (200+ pages) are probably not something I can take on at this time since I can only work when my older two are in school and the baby is sleeping.

Projects I am looking for include:

Vacation Albums

Up North by Carrie Pauly | Make Your Own Book

Alphabitty Moment Books

Alphabitty Moments by carriep | Make Your Own Book

Family Albums

Family Ties | Make Your Own Book

Child Photography

Katelyn | Make Your Own Book

Wedding Albums

Happily Ever After by Carrie Pauly Photography | Make Your Own Book

This is only a sample of the type of photobooks I can design - please don't hesitate to ask if you have a different project you'd like my help with!

The best email to reach me is: 4theloveoffamily@gmail.com

UPDATE 5/2020 Blurb no longer supports the ability to 'slurp' blog posts and photos into their book program. ALL BOOKS HAVE TO BE MADE BY COPYING AND PASTING TEXT AND UPLOADING IMAGE FILES FROM A SOURCE OTHER THAN YOUR BLOG.

Prices for blog books start at $800 for the design portion. Cost of printing and shipping your book is not included in this price.

Thanks to a new feature at Blurb.com I am able to share select pages of the books
I design. Below you'll be able to view 102 pages from a 430 page book I recently finished. 400 blog posts, 1,415 photographs, and countless memories preserved in a one of a kind blog book. Be sure to click on FULL SCREEN for the best view!

When I design a book I am not simply copying and pasting the information from your blog into the page. On average, I read each post a dozen times while I carefully position each word, each photograph, each title, each date etc... into the ideal location in your book.

Some posts, like this one from my most recent book, deserve extra special care. Sam and Amelia are twins who spent weeks upon weeks in the NICU before coming home to their parents. Their first birthday was a day to celebrate! Sixteen pages* of their 314 page book are dedicated to their birthday. This particular one includes letters written to the twins from their dad, Joel.



I created a stationary like look for the letters and used a unique font to make it look like Joel had written in the book himself. If you look closely you'll see at the top and the bottom of the page, pairs of balloons.

Because I read the blog posts over and over again during the design process, I know them like the back of my hand. I know that it was very important to Jenny that there were balloons at the birthday party. Her husband stood out on their porch and blew up all the party balloons for her.

My hope is that when Jenny sees those little balloons on the birthday letter stationary it will bring a smile to her face and remind her of Joel's kind gesture.

Written by Jake's mom, Kelly, this 228 page book features 341 of Kelly's photographs and blog posts from the beginning of her pregnancy through Jake's first Christmas. Kelly is a talented graphic designer and photographer and contributed the cover and title page for this project.

It was a pleasure to create this keepsake for your family!
