Somebody Please start a high end wedding album company that is as easy to use as Shutterfly. I've ordered a few personal albums from Shutterfly.com . It's so easy. You send the the image just as you created it, and they print it the way you've sent it.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The wedding industry albums are no where near that easy. You have to leave 1/16th of an inch on the outside of the image, you have to split the image precisely down the center. The image has to have specs of 600x300 dpi, and 300x300 after you finish. That includes the 1/16th of an inch extra. It makes me dizzy. Oh, and I forgot some of these companies are overseas, so they emails you get describing what you need to fix need to be translated. By the team you finally get it right you realize you are making about $3.00 an hour after all of the hours you've put in.

I have to raise my prices. I'm on a quest to find the professional album that is easy to use. It's my problem until the brides have to start paying more for the albums. Next time I won't complain so much.
