Design Our Beach Photo Album

I have a collection of couple photos ready to share and would love them transformed into a cohesive, beach-themed wedding album. Even though we’re not officially married yet, we want the book to feel like a keepsake we can look back on when the big day finally arrives.

Here’s the creative direction: the entire album should carry a relaxed “beach” vibe, not just the cover. Think soft sands, gentle waves, seashell graphics—whatever works tastefully. I’m picturing a clean blue-and-white palette throughout so everything feels airy and elegant rather than loud or tropical.

What I’m looking for from you:
• Page-by-page layout design (roughly 20-30 pages, but I’m flexible once you see the photo count)
• Subtle graphic elements that tie the beach theme together without overpowering the photos
• Print-ready files sized for a standard 12"x12" photobook plus a high-resolution PDF for screen viewing
• Guidance on the most suitable paper finish or online printer, if you have experience

I’ll provide all high-resolution images via a shared drive and can supply captions or a short introduction text if that helps the flow. You’re free to recommend any professional tools—InDesign, Affinity Publisher, Canva Pro, etc.—as long as the final output is crisp and ready for print.

Please include examples of past photo albums or lookbooks you’ve designed, especially anything with a thematic or travel feel. I’m eager to get started and hope to wrap the first draft within a week once you have the images.
