Favorite Lab for Albums and Books

[heather_p1]

<p>I quickly browsed through other posts for one similar to mine without luck so am posting this one. For those of you who order albums, who do you prefer to use? I am currently ordering my first albums with Millers (never used any other company) but wonder who you use. Any thoughts on Finao, Zookbinders, KISS, etc?<br>

Also, what is your mark-up?</p>

<p>Depends on the look and feel you want. Shop around. Check the websites. Go to trade shows. Talk on the forums......<br>

Some we use and like:<br>

Leather (and other fabrics) covers, stiff pages....Leather Craftsmen 3500 or 300 series, Black River Imaging (Tuscany). Zookbinders, Graphistudio, Finao<br>

Slimmer coffee-table book...Vision Art, Asuka Book<br>

Other favorites...PictoBook...Album Crafters</p>

<p>I have been working on an album on-line at Adorama (<a href="http://www.adoramapix.com">AdoramaPix</a> ). This seems a good way for the enthusiast. I visited their store over Thanksgiving, saw their selection of sample books, and was impressed by the quality.</p>

<p>Kiss is so good it's almost ridiculous. The printing is amazing, the lay flat design, and printing across the binding is key. Plus they are super helpful, always have a good turn around time, and just seem like a fun company. It's the only book we use</p>

<p>Thank you Charles, I'll check out AdoramaPix.</p>

<p>Benjamin, I created a KISS account and snooped around the site. Do your clients miss the lack of cover option variety (only leather and linen)?</p>
