Hey guys,
I was trying to think of ways to keep costs down. I know some photographers offer those beautiful coffee table style photobooks for your wedding pics but I really don’t want to spend another hundreds of dollars for a book. I was thinking of just doing it myself!
I know Walmart does DIY books where you can just upload photos and choose your layout on one of their books for $20-$60 (I think).
But I was wondering if you guys know any other places I can do this at? I just want to see my options because maybe they have nicer covers, or better page layouts or something that is much more customizable than walmart.
Thanks in advance guys!

There are loads of online places where you can order them after uploading the photos and arranging them. CSV photo, shutterfly, mixbook etc etc.

I used shutterfly! I got a free 8.5 X 11 book and only had to pay for shipping! They also have lots of discounts and good prices 🙂

Thanks for the replies guys! I was looking for a place where I can actually pick it up and pay in store since I’m not the pay online kind of person.
I eventually found one that’s in Delta! The customization on the layouts are pretty amazing and very decent prices!

just a word about Walmart- they look at your photos. It was really creepy when I went to pick some digital prints up and they were like “what kind of dog is that? your dog is so cute!”
I hadn’t even said anything to them yet.

I have ordered a photo book online from Blurb before and it turned out amazing!

You have to make a login but it’s really great. You can customize as much as you want everything from every little clipart to where you want each photo to exactly be and how to be designed. It’s great! I wish I could make one now but I haven’t had my wedding yet so I’m going to have to wait!
