Online photobooks and prints

krlatitude

So I have seen some discussion about photobooks ordered online at places like blurb.com.  Has anyone sent in their pictures to online company and had them design and print the book?  On blurb.com it looks like the books only cost $10-70, but that is without help designing the layout.  Also, are there online stores that will professionally print your photos if you are given a CD with copyright permission?

Thanks!

Most online sites allow you to design your book, which is why it's considerably cheaper than albums designed by photographers. Any reputable photo processor will create professional quality prints. You may have to provide your copyright permission in advance for them to print them. HTH

I just received my photo book from Shutterfly and the quality is AMAZING!  It was very easy to design as well.  I purchased a 12x12 book and it only cost $29 and shipping was free.  I would highly check into that if I were you.  They also have options where the online program "designs" the book for you and you just drag the pictures you want on the various pages.  It's not that difficult to do.  Good luck.

f you are considering making your own wedding album, take a look at ...

You provide the images (either upload online or mail a high resolution CD).  They will design a custom album for you.  Once you approve the final design, the images are printed, the album assembled and shipped directly to you.

These are not the magazine style pages, these are the hard mounted pages bound in a flushmount/coffee table style album.  You can choose from many sizes, colors and even an acrylic cover.  These are the same albums many photographers provide to their brides.

Everything is done here in the U.S., so the turn around time is 2-3 weeks total.  You can also call and talk to a real person if you have any questions.

You will not be disappointed!

Good luck.
