Photo books

Postby tommyg on Mon Jan 25, 2010 2:07 pm

We're looking at getting a couple of photo books made up, but not sure of a good company to go with.

The 2 ones we are currently looking at are for a wedding album for a friend, and a portfolio of images.

Does anyone has any experience with getting this done, if so any particular companies that you recommend / warn away from?

Any thoughts or comments greatly appreciated

Cheers
Tom

I can personally recommend www.blurb.com

I use them regularly for myself and for clients and no disappointments so far. Easy, quick, inexpensive and reliable.

There was a lengthy thread on Photo Books which you can read

http://www.dslrusers.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=36124&p=399605&hilit=target#p399605

with lots of useful info. There is a bit of argy bargy in the middle where an interested party made
some remarks without declaring his interest, but aside from that you should find it all helpful.

Good luck!

have just had my 4th book completed with Momento Pro.

It's not hard to get access to their pro section, just an email. and this gives you choices of paper, covers, and sizes.

THey're not cheap, but I have found quality excellent.
