Holiday GG 2010 Shutterfly PhotoBook Review and Giveaway

As a Photographer I have had the opportunity to see lots of companies prints and Photobooks. So I feel I am a pretty good judge of quality and/vs price.



Shutterfly makes a really nice quality photobooks for the price. Of course you could get a album or book through a professional lab that is much better quality but the price would be 10X or more higher.

I was given the opportunity to create a 20 page hardcover 8x8 photobook. I decided to create a first year book for my son with pictures from his first year. I did it by month. The first page was the first week then month 1, 2, 3 etc.



The process was very easy. You picked your layout and colors based on how many pictures you wanted on each page. There were a lot of options. Then you typed in what you wanted in the space provided on the layout.

I was very impressed when the book arrived only a few days later. The cover and pages are thick and the coloring of the pictures and background were very good.

I would definitely order another photobook from shutterfly in the future.

I think Shutterfly photobooks would make a great holiday gift this year. Its always nice to get someone something personal like a photobook because it shows hom much thought and effort you put into their gift.
