    I really agree with your view on this one, I find opening up my laptop, when I have visitors over, to much of a hassle. So I actually almost never show them my pictures, because I only have them in a digital format. I have made a photo album some time ago, and somehow, that album always ends up in someone's hands or on the coffee table, when people visit me. It is so much easier, handing over a physical book, than opening up a laptop, start it up, wait for the machine to load everything etc... A book is light, the paper has a certain smell that I like, the feel of it is nice... I only see advantages in printing actual albums, especially if you'd like to show off your pics in an easy, fast and comfortable manner!
    Cheers from the Netherlands!

    It was a great little gift for him! Nice book, glad you kept it simple and had blank pages, makes it much cleaner and adds balance to the product.

    Thank you for making this video! I just completed my photobook from our family vacation. I wasn't sure about adding color correcting at checkout, so I went with your recommendation and did not check the box. These books are beautiful. I can't wait to deliver these albums to my family

    I think having the different angles and pics on one page looks good..depends on what you are going for..not cheesy at all Fro..I gives movement..Same for turning your camera on a angle for an off level picture. i like throwing different things in my pics and layouts..

    I know I'm about 2.5 years late but, is this book about the pizza place or about Joe? Does he just stand around and make pizza for himself? I appreciate your work and your videos. I think this book could have used some shots of the customers and maybe the store front. Thank you.

    I think you should entitle the book "How To Get Whiskers in The Pizza, A Pictorial Essay" They can make it required reading for the health department.

    You should say that it is FULL FRAME - RATIO, which is 3:2 a ration found on all DSLR's.

  • @killergoose03
    @killergoose03 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Jared, I'm assuming you export your Lightroom files as a jpg. Have you found that keeping the quality at 100 provides the best quality photos for you?

  • @lueraeroberts1288
    @lueraeroberts1288 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks, Jared, for the great video. It was very helpful. I am trying to print up a travel journal I made for my daughter and want to ask you a few questions. You said you like to use "full resolution" pictures and what is the exact size of those? Each of my journal pages has been scanned at 600 dpi and there will only be one of those on each (single) page. Is that resolution too large? Should I have scanned at 300 dpi? Again, you said "full resolution" and it would be helpful to know what that is especially if you put more than one pic on each page. (I want only one per page). Also, do you know if I can print a book of 45 double sided pages? Thanks in advance for your answers. I look forward to checking out all the rest of your videos.

    I am late Jared, yet, I found your video so interesting. I do have one question though, I shoot birds mainly , but I wouldn't know which size should I be getting my photos to? Mostly, my photos are horizontal , not vertical as the ones you are using... plus, is it possible to add a small text bellow the images? (In my case, species, and locations) thanks a lot for your concepts and help. Best wishes from Uruguay.

    Awesome! Thanks for sharing with us! Just one question: 12x19 or 12x9?

    • @Eddiesoc
      @Eddiesoc 9 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Marcelo Albuquerque its 12x9 but jared likes "BIG ASS prints" so he says 12x19 haha

    • @BobFaulkner
      @BobFaulkner 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Actually, in the U.S. it should be written and said 9 x 12. The width always comes first. That's why a standard letter is said to be 8 1/2" x 11". In Europe, it is the opposite.

    • @Eddiesoc
      @Eddiesoc 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      well on any printing website it says it the other way

    • @JeanMarcLavoie
      @JeanMarcLavoie 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      But standard size is not 12x9, it's actually 12x8 (35mm = 3:2, which = 12:8)

    Hey Jared

  • @jaredm.oliver3977

    Hey Fro, thanks for inspiring me. I will be doing a Photo Book for my 1st NYC Fashion week. I want to remember it forever, because I did such a great job IMO. I was shooting with other PRO FX photographers and I held it down with a d3200 and 70-200 VR lens. Thanks again for inspiring me and exposing me to a great company like Adorama Pix. -KKG

    Hey Jared, my husband bought me the D5500 for Christmas and I didn't get the 18-140 for a kit lens just an 18 - 55. At any rate... Shooting in raw did you find that there was a lot of noise, or any noise in post processing? I'm having some issues with this and am unsure if it me, the camera or a combination... Thanks man! ps videos rock and you're a wealth of knowledge!

    looking for a company that designs albums for special occasions, e.g weddings, etc. Basically I want to give them the pics, tell them the format, etc that I want and let them do the rest. I am aware of the online platforms that I can use to do it myself, but I don't have enough hrs in the day to sit and do this. Your reply is appreciated :)

  • @stevengotz
    @stevengotz 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Well done Jared. It is a very nice book and the amazement of the client was so great to see. Making a book certainly adheres to your often stated goal of telling a story. I have one question. I wonder why you chose to fill the frame with the two page spreads and not with the one page. What prompted you to keep a white border around the pictures instead of making them full page? It is probably just a feeling you had, but if you could attempt to explain that feeling, it would be appreciated.

    • @RickDangerousNL
      @RickDangerousNL 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Jared Polin I'm not saying that it's their fault (it's USPS I guess?). It's just that that rate makes it way to expensive for me. I'm probably better off using a service that's in my country.
      The userinterface looks great though :)
