gerard Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 Hi all,<br> From time to time I'm asked by family, friends and colleagues to do their wedding/event pics. Most of the times, I just ask them to cover my costs or offer it as my wedding gift. But lately, I've been asked AN AWFUL LOT of times (total of 5 events in a 2 month period!) and I think it's time to get what my work is worth and some return on my digital equipment investiment<br> One option I'm thinking of, is to to place the images on-line and let the attendants order prints from them. Although I've the knowledge, I don't have the time to set up my own website with order options and even less to co-ordinate the order fulfilment, printing and posting.<br> I normally use on-line services to do my own printing (www.photoways.com is my preferred) and I think there should be such services where you contract the gallery, printing services and space from the website and they do the order take, printing & shipment part, having both a cut of the print price.<br> Somebody has any pointers to such gallery services?? (preferably in EURO-land to avoid any customs taxes & currency troubles, and even beter if they have multi-language support).<br> Any other ideas are very welcome.<br> -regards,<br> Gerard.

gerard Posted April 26, 2004 Author Share Posted April 26, 2004 Thanks Jammey!, Just the kind of service I'm looking for. A pity it's not in the Eurozone. I know many people will be reluctant to order online, let alone to order overseas!. (Although with the current Euro/$ relationship, it's quite interesting).<BR> -regards,<br>Gerard.

gmahler5th Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 Great site! Have you used this site Jammey? Was it easy for you to design/create your wedding albums online? They use Kodak Endura Paper; does anyone have thoughts on this paper, whether or not it's good quality, etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerard Posted April 26, 2004 Author Share Posted April 26, 2004 Just for the record, I found this other resource: <A HREF="http://www.printroom.com/">http://www.printroom.com</A> <br> It looks really good, the kind of think I'm looking for. A bit more relaxed than pictage and more flexible pricing schemas. You are spoilt with choices there in USA!!! Does somebody know whether an envelope with pictures would bear any import/duty taxes? <br>-regards, Gerard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
