A Sample Double Spread

Flo and Dillon spent most of the afternoon planting and watering garden containers.

Those on the trellis and the wall at the front had all succumbed to the heat and required clearing, composting and irrigation.

Jackie and I fixed three quarters of the photographs into the first album. There are 50 pages each 14″ square, consequently 100 usable in each book, separated by acid-free glassine sheets.

Here is a sample double spread.

This evening we dined on spicy Jerk pork chops cooked with peppers; roast potatoes, some of the sweet variety; firm broccoli and cauliflower, with which Jackie drank Hoegaarden, Dillon drank Ribena, and I drank Valle del Tapes Syrah 2019.

  1. It doesn’t sound as if you’ve had any rain recently. Our weather is quite strange. Heavily overcst in grey with either coldish tmperatures or with a very close atmosphere. And we have had two or three lots of rain sonce last week.

  2. (((HUGS))) and ❤️ for Flo and Dillon! What great helpers they are to you and Jackie!

    OH! How wonderful of you two to put those amazing wedding photos in such beautiful albums! The photos you and Jackie took are so beautiful, unique, creative…and your love shines through each and every photo! 🙂
    (((HUGS))) 🙂

  3. I do love to see informal photographs from weddings, everyone is relaxed or unaware.

    There was a time when guests were given disposable cameras at the reception and asked to take informal photos of other guests. That was a lot of fun.

  4. That photo album is a beautiful wedding gift, Derrick and Jackie.

    I am sorry the heat ruined some of the plantings. We have lost a few things here, too. Spot watering has been taking up a lot of time.

  5. That album is a treasure, you guys. The love and laughter in the photos you shared earlier are just a blast to witness, even though I don’t actually even know anyone there. Such a labor of love.

  6. Derrick and Jackie doing these beautiful albums for myself and my husband is just amazing we wanted relaxed photos and that is what we got we will treasure these albums so much we can’t thank Derrick and Jackie enough xx????
