Magenta
Magenta came to me with a vision to transform an old album of photos to a beautifully designed photo book.

In Magenta's earlier years she had been a fashion designer. She had a collection of photos showcasing the beautiful outfits she'd created, but many of these photos were faded and the album they were displayed in was very old, making it difficult to easily view them. Magenta wanted to enjoy the memories of this part of her life and so enlisted my help to create something wonderful and bring out the best of her old photos.
It was really important to Magenta that the style of the book was simple, but with bold coloured backgrounds throughout to complement the photos. She wanted certain photos highlighted, and she also wanted various memorabilia included, such as a newspaper article and business cards.
I met with Magenta and showed her various photo book examples. She in turn showed me her old album and the photos contained within. She settled on a photo book style and size. I made notes as to how she wanted the photos presented. I carefully scanned the photos and memorabilia and then edited them, giving them a new lease of life! When designing the book, I used bold, colourful backgrounds that matched well with the various photos. I ensured Magenta was satisfied with the final design before arranging for the book to be professionally printed.
Magenta absolutely loved the book and was so excited to see the final result. It was a time of her life and a special skill that deserved to be celebrated and what better way to do so than create an amazing photo book.
