I just did a book with Pixmig - the wooden cover - which I hadn't even heard of until I saw your review here. I did a travel photo book, like yours, rather than a wedding book. I'm a tough critic but, frankly, Pixmig exceeded my expectations, mostly so with the glossy photofinishing. I've used about 6 companies in the past; aside from MyPublisher (no long with us), I've never had results as good as with Pixmig. And the wooden cover (and box) really are stylish, and well worth the price IMO. You called it "an amazingly special book." I agree! Thank you for pointing me in that direction - it would have completely escaped me otherwise.
Last my niece had her quinceniera (a really expensive coming of age party) and I got married. For both occasions we hired a professional photographer and videographer. The packages did not include a photobook but I wanted to create them myself either way. I use snapfish I have never heard of such companies and I was really happy with the results. I got 12 x 12 lay flat book for the quinceniera and the 12 x 12 lay flat book premium for my wedding. I was happy with both even the print quality. I did love the wooden book though.
I have done one in the past, look for a video about nPhoto. I decided not to do them anymore because I can't get access to those books and most of my viewers are excluded too.
I want to love Zno, but I ordered a flushmount album from them a few years ago when they were still called Artisan State and the adhesive is already coming apart.
I am looking to buy an wedding album I love the idea of flipchap but was concerned about the digital printing due to so many portraits should I go with another company with a different style of printing?
I do like your reviews. I'm not a wedding consumer, I'm much more into travel - and, especially, nature/wildlife photography portfolios. I haven't got through your entire video yet, but I assume you've covered ZNO's new album format - at least they're calling it new. Just FYI, I would like to have tried SAAL but they won't ship to Canada - not even if I order it to their US address with a request to forward it. Frustrating!
there are so many but as I mentioned in my videos I can't test them because they only deal with professional photographers. If you are one, then your choices are endless, if you are not, then it really depends on the kind of book. each company does it a bit differently
Photo Book Guru thanks, I’ll give them a look. I’m a commercial photographer in the U.K. and roughly every six months I get my favourite latest work printed into photo books. It helps me make sure I have the consistency of quality I want, and potential clients always respond differently to looking at something physically printed, rather than pulling out my laptop, iPad or sending them a website link.

Thank you, it was very nice summary.
Have you done a video on the companies that only sell to pro photographers? I’d be very interested in watching this! Thanks!

I want to love Zno, but I ordered a flushmount album from them a few years ago when they were still called Artisan State and the adhesive is already coming apart.
I heard this from other folk too. My books are still fine but i guess you could try to complain?
Could you provide more info regarding the bodies exclusive to professional photographers?
Swatch kits are no longer available by Milk
Hi. Just wondering should I pick out all the pictures first. I’m thinking I will have close to 200. How much do you think that will be?
I am looking to buy an wedding album I love the idea of flipchap but was concerned about the digital printing due to so many portraits should I go with another company with a different style of printing?
Have you ordered Shutterfly's flush mount book?

I was about to comment the same question!
How long does it take for each company? Thanks

I know, sadly, it's US only. My last book from ZNO was 1 year ago
Great video are these in your order of preference? If money wasn’t a factor and you wanted the absolute best, which option would you choose? Thanks
they are not in order of preference.
Photo Book Guru great and your views on the second part of the question? Best
Hi! Do you talk about softwares at all? I’m looking for a creative one. Thanks!
Yes I do!
Do you know who is the bespoke Photo Album maker? Lets say rols roys of the industry ? It would be great help
Thanks

Which is the best paper for wedding album? Here we have colorful marriages.I'm confused with lustre and Hi gloss. Please help. Thank you.
Lustre is the most popular
@@PhotoBookGuru Thank you so much❤
how can i get temeplate ??
I caannot stand the gurus who say that people get actually for free, you pay even for the air you breath
is the ZNO album or photobook?
I would say album because the pages are very thick
Hi do you know if there are any other companies that have a crystal cover besides Zno?
Saal Digital and AllbumEnvy
@@PhotoBookGuru I checked both of these and they don’t seem to offer a crystal cover.
What’s the names of the companies who only supply professional photographers?
There are too many to list in every country. I don't have a database for them. The one I tried is NPhotoLab, which was great.

$500 ish for photobook, sorry no 😢
But why LEATHER??!!! No animal should really die just for an album 😔😔😔
hahahahahahahha
