Photobook

Who does everyone recommend to create and buy a photobook with?

I've done 3 with Photobox. They aren't the cheapest but I was pleased with the results. Don't forget Quidco too!

I have done a fir few with YoPhoto !
I like them as you dont have to upload to their site they can take it straight from your pc !!

Quality is excellent and software really easy to use !!

I'm actually in the process of putting one together using CeWe (Jessops).

Software seems simple enough, though you need to choose carefully what size / paper you want at the start as it's hard (not impossible but need to be fairly computer savvy) to change those once started.

It's let me customise most things - page backgrounds, pictures spread across double page spreads, photo angles, photo "frames" etc.

Again everything is done on the computer so no long upload process either.

I've done 1 actual photo book and one album, both with kodak and both were very good quality.

Another vote for Blurb here.

Thought I'd post quickly to report back that I've received my photo book today and I'm really pleased with the quality.

It cost me £36 for 42 pages (included a £10 new member discount) and it's about A4 size (landscape) with very good quality photo paper. The pages are seamless so you can happily place large pictures covering a double page and still see the whole picture.

I'll definitely use them again

Don't worry. I slogged on my first one for days and then realised I was working on the wrong size. Phoned them and was told I would have to start over!

I have to say, I did some CeWe through Jessops and was pleased. Good quality and was ready for collection in 3 days - both times!! I was VERY pleased with my hardcover Tesco photobook though. Only snag with them is you need patience for it to arrive. It takes over three weeks for them to send it to the store as they come from Amsterdam. If you have time on your side, great. If not, use Photobox or Jessops.

Now Photobox I cannot fault them on their service and quality. Simply outstanding! The ONLY reason I don't do photobooks with them is that I can't use my own backgrounds. I like to get creative so these ready to use systems don't suit me. However if you don't care to spend weeks working on a photobook, then PhotoBox is by far the best!

Finally started it. Uploaded all my photos on Tuesday (took hours) and in my lunch hour today I did about 16 pages. I decided on Photobox in the end as a kind disser gave me a great code.

Do I need to pay for any of the Premium book options? (Premium paper +£2.99 Matt lamination +£1.99 Deluxe gift sleeve +£4.99)

 

[Chilly]

Sadly code did not work but i've ordered it.

Not sure if this link works:

Waiting for it to load so I can check it out. You won't be disappointed if you ordered from Photobox. I know they cost a little more, but their quality and service are both outstanding. I don't hesitate to recommend them.

And honestly, for a wedding album, you want the quality.

Hi Claire,

The code expired yesterday and was only for square books not A4 - sorry if I didn't make that clear enough and misled you.

For what it's worth I think your book looks great.

 

[mumloveseeyore]

it looks wonderful
