Because the print runs for photo books are small and the production costs are high, many publishers now expect photographers to front the costs of production, especially if the photographer is seeking extra photos, special papers or other design elements that add to the cost. Martin told PDN in 2018, “The beauty of where we’re at right now is that there are many different options for making a book.” At the same time, the challenges have also increased, thanks to the closing of bookstores and the pricing pressure of online retailers who expect a discount. Thank you for sponsoring this post.Digital printing has lowered the costs and other barriers to self-publishing, small publishers keep cropping up with interesting projects, and photographers are exploring new forms and formats for artist’s books.

Once images are used, they disappear off your image roll, so you know which you’ve already added.

MyPublisher Album Design Features I enjoyed: Flush mount albums start at $300, they are high end with thick, rigid pages, beautiful leather cover options and customizable page layouts. Making the album as easy as downloading the MyPublisher BookMaker program, opening it, and working with layout templates. I asked Sommer to send me over a combination of their wedding day images from Imperial Beach taken by Dream Beach Wedding, and the day after portraits to create a premium album for them. You can select a casual album to an elegant keepsake album with thick pages, metallic gilding, rounded page corners, premium leather cover options, foil stamping – the personalized look is endless! These high-end flush mount albums are d esigned especially for showcasing special occasions, and larger, and sturdier than the photo books.Īs a photographer and voluntary historian of my friends, and crazy album lady (each international trip has it’s own high quality album) I was happy to work with them on designing Sommer and Jeff’s wedding album.

I teamed up with MyPublisher early this summer and wanted to share their professional quality albums, available to the public. Witnessing one of my best friends get married this past summer in San Diego was such a highlight, and being able to photograph their wedding portraits the next day was such an honor!
