design help please

My DD has just done a professional photo session and I am really keen to scrap some of the beautiful results.

The photos are simply stunning and I would love some ideas on how to scrap them.

Any advice on papers etc would be gratefully excepted or if any of you have any similar layouts that you would be willing to share that would be great.

Thanks in advance - you are all always full of ideas.

First of all I would look at the photos and think about mood-and go from there-eg are they soft and romantic type photos-or fresh and fun type photos?-once you've determined the mood you can think about papers, colours etc to suit the mood.

They are very classic - romantic, soft and beautifully lit. I don't really want anything floral pp wise but not sure what else is out there

maybe a damask type pattern?
or something like these...

and some gemstone swirls...

I recently bought this range and thought it would be perfect for soft photos or even black and white - http://www.theprojectgirl.com/wp-con.../Picture-3.png

I'd be tempted to go for a clean, graphic style, using mainly blocks of cardstock, with embellishments and a little pp to enhance rather than distract from the photos.

Not really the same sort of LOs, but this, this and this are sort of what I mean!

Thanks a lot ladies - I think I will go for something quite classic and understated and let the photos do the talking.

My DD had a professional sitting a while back and loved the pics. I am doing an album of the black and white one for her 21st birthday. I think there may be one or two already in my gallery.

A lot of the clothes she wore were quite bright, so doing the b & W pics seemed the best option for me and she wanted each page different, she didnt want me to use the same range all the way through

How much did these sessions cost, and what did they involve? Sounds a lovely gift for a young person. (Not just a young person, I mean a young person I have in mind!).

It was a 5 hour session which included facial, manacure, hair, make up, obviously the photos in various settings and then she chose 10 photos to have printed off (and copied onto CD) and she gets the rights to these photos and altogether it cost her about £350 I think. I would attach one of the photos but I can't work out how to do it!!!
