Inspired Album Designs

I had come across Susan's website while searching for a designer to make my wedding album, and I am so glad that I did. her prices were so much better than any other company that I had looked into, and I am so happy with my album. Susan was very quick to reply to all of my emails, she worked quickly, and was very helpful. She helped me narrow down my pictures, and was also very flexible with my many revisions. I opted to have extensive photoshopping done to my album, which Susan did flawlessly at a great price. She also worked with me to find the best company for printing my album. I am very picky, but cannot find one complaint about the service or my album. Thanks to Susan, my husband and I have a beautiful wedding album that we will love forever.

I found Susan's website online and chose her after doing research on other vendors for our wedding album. We had to do all our communicating via email due to my location. She was extremely quick to respond to any questions I had and was very thorough at explaining every aspect of our album. She was great at giving me ideas and showing me examples of albums and colors ( since I wasn't sure what we wanted).Her designs are beautiful. Our wedding album turned out more beautiful than I could imagine!

Susan is a consummate professional. I cannot recommend her enough for wedding album design. From our first email exchange to the last, she was patient, responsive, and efficient-- everything I look for in a wedding vendor!

I was considering making my wedding album myself, but soon realized that it would take me months to carve out the time to do it. I was so happy to find Susan-- she was exactly as others described her. She took the time to understand my preferences and incorporated them beautifully into our wedding album. She was also amazingly reasonable in terms of her design fee. I printed three albums (2 full size albums and 1 parent album) including her fee for less than half of what my wedding photographer would have charged.

And I couldn't be happier with the product-- I think I've been sifting through our wedding album nearly on a daily basis. It's absolutely gorgeous! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Susan!

Susan is fabulous! I highly recommend her design services. I had my heart set on a professional looking flush mount book for my wedding album. Our photographer didn’t offer design services and I couldn’t find a printer locally that offered designed flush mount books, so I searched online. I came across the Inspired Album Design website and loved what I saw in gallery. I emailed Susan immediately and she responded the very next morning. I live in the Midwest and Susan is on the east coast. Despite the distance, we had no problems communicating or sharing ideas. We did everything over the phone and through email. She is very creative and worked hard to get every page just the way I wanted it. She did a great job providing suggestions and incorporating my requests. To say she is patient is an understatement. She was so understanding and friendly, even when I sent her a long list of changes or obsessed over minor details. She also took care of ordering the book with the printer and set everything up for me. I just received my book yesterday and am thrilled with the quality. Everything turned out beautifully. Thank you Susan!

We live in South Florida and had amazing photos from the best photographer in town for my daughter's wedding. After receiving the disc with all the photos, I began to investigate who can create the perfect album for my daughter and me. Susan was probably the most attentive, caring, and talented person I have ever came across. I never met her, but feel like she could be part of my family. Her work is equisite!!! I received the albums promptly, and I could not be any happier with the quality. I would HIGHLY recommend and I am excited to use her services for future events!

Susan did a wonderful job on my wedding album and I would recommend her to anyone. She was very responsive to my emails and suggestions and did a fantastic job at a reasonable cost. Overall, I am very pleased with my album. It's high quality and the design is great! Thanks so much, Susan!

Susan was great to work with on our wedding album! She was very professional throughout the process and so quick in providing us layouts of the pictures. So many people have provided us compliments on our album and it really has to do with the creative techniques used by Susan and team. I highly recommend Inspired Album Designs---not only does it look amazing but Susan and her team make your life so much easier!

Many thanks Insipired Album Designs!

I would recommend Susan in a heartbeat to everyone I know! She is such a pleasant,extremely patient, very artistic, quick to respond to our needs, very professional and a kind & gentle person.
Emails and calls were a significant part of her vibrant approach to getting the album in our hands as quickly as possible.
Her gentle suggestions & recommendations without being pushy were the highlights of my experience with a real professional lady who not only loves her job, but, without doubt, loves her fellowmen!
May her tribe increase!
Thanks for the best experience Susan!

I was looking for someone that could put my pictures together into a wedding album. I stumbled across Susan's website and could not be happier. She helped me to figure out what I wanted and came up with an amazing design. She was easy to work with and responded quickly. I couldn't be happier with the final product. I have shown the album to friends and everyone says how beautiful it is. If you are looking for someone to create your dream wedding album choose Susan with Inspired Album Designs.

I really wanted to get a professional album for my wedding pictures for both myself and each set of parents, but I didn't want to try to design one myself and what my photographer's offered was going to be too expensive. I found Susan's website and loved her work! I contacted Susan right away and was so excited to get started after talking with her on the phone about my style and the kind of album we were looking for. Susan was great to work with - she really took into account my style when designing and also gave me some great ideas for ways to showcase our pictures. Susan also took care of getting our album ordered for us and was even nice enough to order a sample album from one of the printers prior to placing our order to make sure the sample would be what we wanted. When the sample came back and wasn't what we were looking for, Susan recommended another printer instead and took care of the ordering process for us. We got our albums about a week ago and absolutely love them! They came out sooo much better than I ever could've done on my own - so glad we asked Susan to help us, she did an amazing job!!

Susan is phenomenal! She designed my album perfectly to my tastes and standards and the album that arrived exceeded all expectations i had. It is BEAUTIFUL!

Susan was super easy to work with. The minute she got my pictures she started working on a design for the album. We spoke on the phone so that she could get a sense of the style I was looking for and then she did the rest of the work. It was incredibly easy!

Susan was a pleasure to work with, she created the album layouts in just a few days and was very responsive to edits and questions. Definitely recommend!

Susan was fantastic to work with! She would contact me back immediately after each email, even when I sent them late at night. I was out of the country for several months and she managed to offer suggestions for how to get my photos, how to deliver, and how to pay and the whole process was seemless and effortless. I had a vision for what I wanted the albums to look like, and she not only zeroed in on exactly what I wanted, but also found affordable options for an otherwise expensive professional wedding album! She certainly took a lot of stress out of the process and provided us with several albums that will be cherished forever!

I had randomly stumbled upon Susan's work while browsing the internet. I did not read any reviews or have anyone tell me how good she was. I trusted what I found of her work online and asked her to make a wedding album for me and my husband, and for each of our parents. I knew from the first few e-mails I received from her that she was a true professional. She was always responsive on email and on the phone, her work is amazing, she has great talent and I look forward to recommending her to my friends and family if they are looking for an album that is more professional looking then one that I could make myself! Though it is more expensive then making your own album online, I will say for sure that her services are well worth the money.

Susan's work is amazing. The book was so creative and authentic. It will be a permanent keepsake of memories that will last a lifetime from a very special time. I would recommend Susan to anyone.

Susan did a fantastic job with our album. I sent her a disc with our favorite wedding pictures and she turned around a beautifully created draft album in no time at all. She was always quick to respond to my emails as well and very flexible when I wanted to change a picture or add more. I would highly recommend her services.

Susan was amazing to work with. She helped me narrow down my professional wedding pictures and compose them into a beautiful album. While our geographic distance kept us from meeting in person, she was responsive and patient with all the revisions done via email. My album was finished quickly (after putting off the process for over a year) and I am in love with the results. The finished product is worth every penny!

Susan was fantastic to work with! It was such a relief to have this process be so simple and straightforward. I didn't want to spend thousands of dollars on wedding albums from my photographer and choosing Susan to design the albums was an incredible value. Susan's designs met my high expectations! She even found discounts from several printing companies so I got very reasonably priced parent albums as well. She posted the album so quickly and made my requested edits within a day or so! I would highly recommend her to anyone!

Susan helped me design our wedding albums. She was an absolute pleasure to work with. Ultra fast response time and so flexible with her clients needs. I would have no hesitancy in recommending her services to anyone that needs them.

I am thrilled with the photo book that Susan designed for me and my husband. She is very creative and selected the best and most appropriate photos from the many jpgs that I sent her (our photographer took over 200 photos and there were so many I could never narrow the selection down myself) and arranged each page with so much thought and design. It's such a keepsake book that we will treasure forever.

The process was very easy and we found no problems communicating what we wanted even though we only spoke by phone and emailed proofs back and forth. I highly recommned Inspired Album Designs.

While searching the internet I randomly came across Susan's website and after great research picked her as the one to put our beach wedding photo album together.

In the beginning, I sent all of our wedding photos to her and from there she instantly sent an email over to me starting to lay it all out. I must admit that when we first got started that my initial thought was "Oh, that is just so easy to do. I should have just put the whole thing together on my own rather than pay someone to do it."

Well I have to tell you that it didn't take long after that for me to come to the conclusion that I jumped the gun on that thought. I totally have no regrets in hiring Susan, she was absolutely amazing to work with and my husband and I absolutely love our album.

A brief list of reasons why you too should have her put your album together:

FAST/QUICK - Susan was always so fast at making changes, adding photos, fixing photos and rearranging things. Every time I requested a change she'd email me back usually within 24 hours or less with the change or addition completed.

TALENTED/CREATIVE - There were a number of times that I had somewhat of an idea in my head but, I wasn't exactly sure how to really bring the idea to life. After briefly describing my ideas to Susan she was always able to bring the idea to life for me. She absolutely blew me and my husband away a handful of times with the end result that she had come up with.

PRICING - When I located Susan off of the internet her pricing was reasonable and affordable compared to a few other individuals. In the end the total amount I paid actually left me feeling a bit guilty as if I owed her so much more for all of the hours and hard work she put into our book.

PATIENT/FRIENDLY/UNDERSTANDING - Susan is so easy to work with. Believe me when I tell you that I changed my mind far too often back and forth on things. She was always understanding about it and told me more than once that she had no problem making changes and would do so until the album was exactly the way I wanted it.

HELPFUL - By the time the album was finished I had yet to make up my mind about the book and company I wanted to have print it. Susan offered up all kinds of information and details about the different options and companies available which really helped me to finally make a decision.

To sum it up, we love our amazing, awesome wedding album. I am soooo glad that I didn't try to put our book together on my own. Look no further and just hire Susan.

Susan Gallagher, from Inspired Album Designs, helped me make the most wonderful photo book I could have imagined. When I started the process with her I was intimidated by what seemed to be the vast array of choices to make; the variety of designs; the culling through of hundreds of photos and my lack of my time to do any of it. Susan made it all simple and easy. She led me through a process that allowed me to have creative choices and input, but she did all the heavy lifting. The process was made fun by her and she had amazing patience when I changed my mind or was late in getting back to her. She has an ease of design and a visual aesthetic that made the book look and read like a personal expression of myself. The result was not some canned or standard template of a book that one often sees. The result was intimate, unique to my event, and an expression of me.
I can't recommend her more. Her artistry allows one to take significant events and memories, and store them in a manner that conveys those feelings forever, and in a way one can share.

After much research on albums (knowing that my photographer was going to be super expensive and not overly responsive), I came across Susan's website on Wedding Wire. I had a certain type of album in mind (flush mount) that is not typically available for brides to order directly and I knew I didn't want to take on designing my album myself. Susan was great to work with and went above and beyond in helping me figure out options for my album and passed on the direct costs of ordering my (flush mount) album. Her design was great and she was super flexible and quick, while putting up with my several rounds of changes and figuring out layout options. I highly recommend her if you're looking for a professional album and great design at a lower cost than what your photographer is probably charging.

We have worked with many talented photographers who’ve taken exceptional event photos, but have been disappointed with somewhat stale album layouts and agonizingly slow delivery. Susan Gallagher has an unusual talent in helping us to select the best photos and then, understanding our vision for an album and the tone of the event, designing remarkable keepsake books. Almost as important, her prices are, by far, much better than photographers for graphic design and her delivery times are unbeatable.

I had a great experience working with Susan. She was very professional and very responsive. I would definitely recommend her to a friend. The quality of the book is fantastic and I ended up spending close to half the price of what my photographer was going to charge me.

I used "Inspired Designs" for a wedding album. Our friends were getting married in Aspen and they were the couple that has everything, this wedding was a second marriage for both. I could not think of anything unique and classy to give them. Then Susan suggested a wedding memory book, but I thought my photos would not be good enough because of the pocket camera I used and the difficult lightening ( it was very bright sun that weekend). Susan reassured me with the professional printing and her design we could make my photos look great. And sure enough she was right! I could not believe the quality of the photos and the design. I tried to design my own book on shutterfly, but when she took over it took the book to another level!! My friends received the book and LOVED it! Thanks so much for all your hard work with this special gift.

Working with Susan was fantastic -- she was very responsive to my requests and preferences, communicative regarding product details such as timeline and pricing, friendly to work with, and, most importantly, produced a gorgeous album! I would highly recommend working with her.

Susan was wonderful to work with! I didn't have a lot of ideas about what kind of book I wanted, and she helped to guide me to what I wanted. We had multiple revisions, and she was extremely flexible and receptive to our changes. Susan was very easy to get a hold of via either phone or email. She always replied quickly and changes were posted within a day. Our book came quickly, and it was even better than we expected. It wasn't cheap, but the book proves why. It's definitely a high-end product and what a wedding album should be - stunning! I highly recommend Susan. She was terrific to work with and did an incredible job!

I was Susan's ginny pig for glass covered album with flush mount pages! My friend had one made from Italy, Susan found 1 vender only in the US that does them and worked with them. Overall turned out fantastic and Susan did an amazing job with the design. I'm from Cincinnati, OH and Susan is from MD, to be honest I was a little worried with the distance factor and letting someone I didn't know do the design. But all the reviews I read lived up to her work and progessionalism. I would reccommend her to anyone and anywhere! I really appreciate all the time effort she put forth!

Susan was great to work with! I had a friend do my wedding photography but the pictures were unedited and unorganized; I didn't know what to do with them. Searching my options, I found Inspired Album Designs and found what I needed! Susan was great to work with right off the bat, and started editing and laying out pictures right away. We spoke on the phone to get a feel for what I wanted, and she was super easy to contact and communicate with via e-mail. She sent me a layout for me to approve and was really open to changes and suggestions for what I had in mind for my album. She definitely knows what she's doing as far as photo design. I got my album yesterday and it's beautiful! She sends the album design out to professional album manufacturers (?) and they sent it to my house. The whole process took about two months for me from my first e-mail to her to getting my album. Mine may have taken longer though because my photos were unorganized, I kept finding others I wanted, and then I was indecisive about the album cover, and then it took a little bit of extra time at the manufacturer. And through all that, Susan was patient and great to work with! One suggestion would for her to set up some kind of Paypal thing or something to assure secure transaction because we just sent a check and I didn't have the album yet so I just had to trust that I'd get it (and I did!). This would also be more secure for Susan. Again, she did great and I love my album!

I just wanted to post my enthusiastic feedback about my experience with "Inspired Album Designs" in order to help brides who are looking for a way to save money on their wedding album but don't want to give up their dream of having the most incredible and beautiful album one could possibly think of! My photographer’s album package was so expensive that I started researching alternatives. It pays to look around. I used a graphic designer (Susan Gallagher of www.InspiredAlbumDesigns.com) who specializes in wedding album design and it truly was the best thing I ever did. Susan was such an amazing, skilled, sensitive and patient person to work with! Her design was so original and creative and my album is absolutely gorgeous, plus she wove in a lot of my favorite non-professional pictures. And her per-page rate was super affordable. She also helped us choose the right flush mount album type from different vendors and ordered it for us for a total price that was hundreds of dollars less than our photographer’s quote. You just have to make sure your photographer gives you rights to your photos first. Well, dear bride, following my advice will make you enourmously happy!

Susan's work was amazing. She helped me out 2 years after my wedding, when I had a loads of pictures and no album for my special day. She helped me think through the whole process, made excellent suggestions and was a real professional. My wedding album is stunning and I get compliments on it all the time. I would gladly recommend her.

really really great stuff! would suggest it to everyone :))))

Susan did a fantastic job with our wedding album. I had a very bad experience with my initial photographer. I sent her the disc with our favorite wedding pictures and she creative a beautiful story of our wedding day. Susan is professional and very responsive. I would highly recommend her services.
