Photography and crafts--two hot areas wed in one stunning book
* Milestone book shows how to capture and share life’s most meaningful moments
* Gorgeous photography and hip yet accessible projects
* No experience in photography or paper craft needed
* Dozens of beautiful, memorable projects Wedding invitations and engagement announcements used to be just words on a plain card. Now they can be so much more--with The Art and Craft of Keepsake Photography: Engagements and Weddings. Beautiful, hip projects combine digital photography with paper crafting for invitations that will be cherished long after the event. The centerpiece is "keepsake photography," pictures that go beyond simple snapshots to capture life’s richest moments. Then these timeless images are transformed into unique mementos that share and document the story--cards, announcements, invitations, albums. No previous experience in photography or crafting is needed, since author Barbara Smith covers everything from basic special-occasion photography tips to digital imaging to paper-crafting techniques. For those who want to turn their new hobby into a business, the last section of the book presents marketing ideas for selling custom-made products. First in a series, The Art and Craft of Keepsake Photography: Engagements and Weddings starts readers on lifelong journey of creativity.

A MUST HAVE book for professional photographers!
I am a professional photographer and a paper crafter and I was already offering custom handmade invitations and announcements. Even with my experience, this was the most informative book on this subject I have ever read. I'm actually buying a second copy of this book so I can keep one intact and cut up the second book to use in my "Visual Journal" (She talks about this in the book)
My only regret is that I live too far to attend one of her workshops.
I can't wait for the second book in this series!
Some of the best ideas I've ever stolen
I took one of Barbara's workshops last spring and found her writing to be as charming and open as she was in person. I have received so many compliments on the projects that I have done. I hope that she will forgive me for biting my tongue and taking all of the credit!
Beautiful book, wonderful ideas, easy instructions
This book is packed with examples of wonderful photos and how to use them. Ms. Smith makes her photographs into incredible cards, albums, stationery...the list goes on and on. The instructions are easy to follow. The list of materials (and where to get them) is extensive. This is more sophisticated than many "how-to" craft books out there--I can't wait to try some of the elegant projects.
