Interested in Making a Great Photo Book of Your Work? WhiteWall Has a New Publishing Service

Have you ever wanted to see your best photos printed out in a handsome tome? WhiteWall, one of our favorite online photo labs, just might have the right solution for you.

The company is now offering a photo book publishing service that promises to be easy to use while offering WhiteWall’s premium print quality. (Here’s a review we did of WhiteWall’s online print service to give you an idea of their lab quality.)

WhiteWall photo books come in a number of different formats in a range of paper types, and feature a variety of cover options. The company’s straightforward software is designed to make it easy and fun for photographers and enthusiasts to create photo books for most occasions including weddings, special milestones. It also can be just as a creative way to display your best photos.

More advanced design professionals are given the option of using their own layout software, if they’d like, and can upload their custom photo book designs as a PDF. The software’s online sharing mode is designed to make it easy to collaborate on creating a photo book online with friends and family around the world.

Here are some of the features of WhiteWall’s new photo book service:

• Six different formats including small landscape, small square, standard portrait, standard landscape, large square and large landscape.

• A wide range of covers including printed linen and soft covers, complete with robust linen-texture lamination. Leather covers are available in seven colors: marine blue, burgundy, dark brown, light brown, green, red, and black. Other variations include a silky-soft SoftTouch, while a velvety cover is designed to be a great finish for a particularly high-end photo book.

• A variety of paper types, which WhiteWall has provided specifically for its photo book product, includes the more subtle glossy 170 gram classic as well as a high-gloss variation for brighter colors. Other options include the Premium silky matte (250 grams) or Premium Matte Uncoated (170 g) which presents all images without glare for a high quality, easy-to-view look. Photographers and enthusiasts are able to create a photo book up to 252 pages. 

WhiteWall describes its do-it-yourself software as “user-friendly,” and ready to use without the need to download and install. It helps guide customers through each step of the design process, with draft versions saved online and accessible from any connected device. Users can integrate images from Facebook, Flickr, SkyDrive and other social networks while previews give you an impression of what the work will look like when it’s published.
