With some of the top vendors in the industry participating in the most sought after event in WPPI the Air Horns & Lasers party is not one to be missed! Remember you can still buy tickets here, but it won’t be long before they are gone!

I can’t wait to meet you in person at Air Horns & Lasers!

THE BIGGEST LAS VEGAS PARTY!!!:: Air Horns & Lasers Party

Have you heard? Dream Album Co. is the exclusive album sponsor for the hottest party in Vegas at WPPI this year! We have teamed up with some of the most influential wedding photographers and vendors to host Airhorns and Lasers, an event that is certain to be the talk of the town! 

The first round of tickets sold out in record time, but SECOND ROUND TICKET will be available at 8:00PM tonight! Please check the ticket site.  Tickets will be limited though, so be certain to grab your tickets while you can. This is definitely an event NOT to be missed!

What makes this party spectacular you ask? For starters, there won’t be any vendor booths, gift bags, or cupcakes. There will be a bar, a dance floor, and the industry’s hottest vendors, bloggers, and taste makers getting down under one (relatively small) roof. You will hang with your favorite people, talk, dance, drink, get sweaty, and be very happy you went!

Keep checking our blog, too. I have a few TICKETS that I will be giving away in the next few weeks!

Leave a comment to let us know if you will be at WPPI or if you are one of the lucky few who already have your ticket to Airhorns and Lasers!

Show Off Your Dream - Teryn Glenn

We just received the beautiful Dream Album product shots from Teryn Glenn ( of www.terynsphotography.com ). She presented the bride's bouquet on the front cover (very unique statement by the way and we LOVED it). It looks fantastic followed by simple page design of her gorgeous work. It must be every bride's Dream Wedding Album and beyond! Take a look and inspired!

She added, "Oh my gosh!  My first dream album arrived yesterday, and I am in awe!  I have ordered a few 5x7 dream boxes/mats from you, and I have absolutely loved them.  I was so anxious to finally see a dream album.  I ordered this 9x9 30 page dream album as a wedding album for one of my clients from this summer.  When it arrived, and I opened the box, I could not believe how perfect it was.  I am so picky about quality, color, etc. and I couldn't have imagined it any better.  Thank you so much for such an amazing product.  It really is a DREAM album.  I am so excited to get this to my client, and I can't wait to order another! "

We really appreciate the comment as well as her beautiful work on Dream Album! Thanks so much Teryn! 

Our Wish & Dream

As many of you read our previous post about Kate, we had made two albums for Kate's family. A Dream and a Wish. Thanks so much for your love and support for the family and comments on the blog.  We (Dream Album Co.) will continue to help Tiny Sparrow Foundation making the families like Kate's great memories by providing our products and services.   We are very happy to be part of such a great love and we would welcome all of you to be a part.

We had taken some product images for Tiny Sparrow Foundation to help them raise funds and would like to share it with you. They are 10x10, 24page Wish album and Dream album (Same size and same design). 

They both carry so much of love, thought, and happiness of the moments. We are so sure they will be cherished for a long time. As we post this, we would like to remind you that our wish album special is still up until 12/10 and a portion of our wish album sales during the special period will be donated to Kate and Tiny Sparrow Foundation. Thank you so much for your support.

Wish for Kate

Kate's Wish Album came out yesterday and we would like to share her story.

We received a call from one of our Dream Photographers, Lidia (of Oh So Posh Photography, and also a cancer survivor) about a month ago. She flew to Arizona to take these wonderful pictures – and capture amazing memories – of the McRae family whose little girl is fighting brain cancer. The five-year old girl in the picture is Kate.

Kate had already undergone multiple rounds of chemotherapy and was expecting another one soon. Because the treatment destroys her immune system’s ability to fight germs, her brother and sister cannot visit her in the hospital. Lidia and the Dream Album team wanted to create a beautiful album for the family to look at while Kate is in the hospital. 

Take a look at the slide show below (click the arrow to start the show. There is a little bit of waiting before it starts.)

To find out more about Kate you may visit pray for kate, and please also check out Lidia's new venture at tinysparrowfoundation.org/blog. This amazing woman created a foundation to help photographers around the world make memories for families with children who have a terminal illness. She would appreciate your support and participation.

We sent out two albums (one for the hospital and one for home) to Kate today and our prayers are with her and her family. If you want to help or donate, please visit the two sites (links available above). 

We are running specials for the Wish Album this week and will donate a portion of our sales to Kate and Tiny Sparrow Foundation. Thank you.

Show Off Your Dream - Kristen Cook

We've got a love letter from Kristen Cook of Melbourne, Australia, the other day. Many of you must already know her for her amazing talent, but check this out to see her master piece(we meant Charlie) presented in Dream Album (9x9, 30 pages ). Each image is truly art and each page is divine. See more of her work at:  
http://kristencook.com.au/blog/the-art-book-newborn-photographer-melbourne/  

She says, "I just wanted to let you know that my album finally arrived yesterday and I LOVE it!!!! I was just about ready to scratch the door down with impatience but it was so worth it - I love it more than I could have imagined (and I am very picky) I have already looked through it so many times and want all of my clients to fall in love with it just as much as I have. It's truly beautiful."

Thanks so much Kristen. We LOVE your work and product shots!!!
