While i've been enjoying the beautiful arctic snowfall over the Tyne (not really!), I came across a selection of "at-a-click" resources for printing a professional portfolio. While we all know PDF portfolos are key for creatives seeking to maximise their reach, the print portfolio remains an important self promotional tool.
Here are the websites:
1. Lulu (http://www.lulu.com/)
Lulu is a self-publishing colossus with themed book templates where you can upload your own layouts for publishing. The prices seem reasonable too.
2. YoPhoto (http://www.yophoto.co.uk/)
In YoPhoto you can download their bok creation-software or elect to create bespoke books themselves.
3. Bob Books (http://www.bobboks.co.uk/)
Bob Books is a consumer service but with provision for design professionals. Creatives can design their own photobooks in conjunction with Adobe software like Photoshop and InDesign.
4. Diginate (http://www.diginate.com/)
Diginate is not exactly a photobook service, but it offers spot UV poster prints which would interest those keen to join the growing number of people placing portfolios on a folded poster. The prices seem a little hefty, but the prints are definetly worth it!
