As a photographer I have noticed that there are so many gorgeous ways to use, display, print, and share wedding photos after the big day. I have couples all the time sending me examples of canvases hanging on their wall and albums sitting on their coffee table in the perfect place for guests to flip through. It is seriously SO easy to be able to relive your wedding day through your photos. Unfortunately, I've noticed it is not as easy to do the same with your wedding video.

This spring I set out on a mission to find something that had the same look, feel, convenience, and sentimental impact as a printed wedding photo album, but for video. I honestly didn't expect to find anything, when I stumbled across The Motion Book!

The Motion Books is a gorgeous album designed with video in mind!

Look & Feel

The albums from The Motion Books are 8.5 x 6.5 inch linen bound books with embossed text. They have a customizable front cover that opens like a traditional photo album but inside you find a gorgeous 7 inch full color screen. When I say this screen is gorgeous I really mean it! I was absolutely blown away with the quality of the screen and how beautiful my videos looked when played on it. The album itself is the perfect size to The Motion Books takes a digital video and makes it feel more like a meaningful tangible object that you can actually touch, hold, and feel.

CONVENIENCE

Imagine this: you have guests over and they notice an album sitting on your table or on your book shelf. They open it up expecting to find a couple wedding photos to flip through and instead they notice a screen and immediately your wedding video begins playing - suddenly they are able to experience your entire wedding day with you from start to finish without even having to touch a button! Loading the video is easy and playing it afterward is even easier. There are even built in speakers so there is no need to figure out an audio solution. The album contains a rechargeable battery and comes with a usb charging cable for easy charging.

SENTIMENTAL IMPACT

I am not even really sure I have to elaborate on this one. Does The Motion Books have the same sentimental impact as a traditional photo album? YES! I would even go as far to say that it can be even more impactful than a traditional album. There is just something so special about the nice presentation of such intimate moments that you can see and hear play out in front of you.

final thoughts

I seriously cannot tell you guys enough how much I love this product. I am so picky when it comes to my photography and videography work and wanting it to be presented authentically and with quality (I mean, these are literally some of your post precious moments after all) and The Motion Books really does the job! If you are having a wedding video made, or a video done of any other important moment, I cannot recommend getting one of these albums enough!
