The door bell rang..

What is this?


How about this?


This just arrived! My first ever photobook.. something that I've been itching to get since a couple of years back. Since we're getting a whopping 30% discount now, that enhanced the desire to get my lazy butt moving.. That thing in this package took me a total of 12 panstaking hours to complete.. editing photos, combining, some collage.. all in the effort to bring the events into sequence.. so each page tells a story on it's own.. without any words.. after all, a picture tells some thousands of words doesn't it? Another 3 1/2 hours waiting for the upload to complete.. 4 1/2 days waiting for the final product to arrive..


Should I be anxious to open it? DOH~

Debossed window, hard cover, A4 size landscape photobook.. Front image sliced to tell the content of the album.. the beach.. the water sliding down rocks.. and the lubang of a canon..


How how?! How is it? How was the editing? How's the quality? Shucks, how's photobook?

In the package.. box to protect.. some damperners inside the box.. album cover (slide the album in/out) and the album itself..


100% crop of the page.. trying to show you the paper quality. We were told 70grams paper during the presentation at the company. Feels to me like the pages of wedding albums.


How? I'm totally satisfied.. the hours of editing n compiling paid off, the money spent (-30%) well worth.. Now let's see how it stands the flippings of the public..

For those who'd like to know the process;
1. point ya browser to www.photobook.com.my

3. depending on what you like, u could use the ready templates
4. once you're done, u've an option to upload to photobook or send a hardcopy
