#Photo books for amazon photo app software#
I've used Blurb in the past, and they do great work. But for this project, I wanted to use web or app tools, and Blurb instructed me to download the latest Adobe Flash desktop software to continue. (As a Prime member, I got it free.) Shutterfly quoted me $9 for this, and I declined.īoth Blurb and Adorama both got knocked out of consideration.
Amazon had the best deal and didn't overcharge for shipping. I ended up ordering the album from Amazon Prints for two reasons: simplicity and pricing. But if you keep focused, and stand your ground, you can achieve it.įor this project, I visited Shutterfly, Blurb, Adorama Pix, Google Photos, Amazon Prints, Snapfish and ChatBooks. Of course, getting there is hard unless you use Google Photos software, which is the only one of the photobook makers I've frequented that believes in pure simplicity.
Goals: Mine was simple: 25 photos, one per page, as clean as possible, without mucking it up with multiple photos, or fancy layouts, in an 8 1/2-by-11 hardcover book. You will be hit with an onslaught of way too many options from the vendors that could potentially trip you up into rabbit hole territory. Like A-vacation, B-vacation, C-vacation works for me, or 1_vacation, 2_vacation or 3_vacation. Organization: Start by putting your photos first into a folder on your desktop, and if you can rename them in the order you want, even better.
