Blurb Photo Books 4+

"Publishing my first photo book, "Please, Don't Leave Me," through Blurb has been an unforgettable journey. Their user-friendly platform made the process of designing and laying out my unique collection of photographs a breeze.

The print quality of the final product did justice to the vibrant hues and intimate moments I captured on film. It was simply remarkable to see my work displayed on the high-quality pages of a professional-grade book.

One of the aspects that truly stood out was Blurb's affordability. It allowed me to offer my cherished audience a rich visual experience without setting the price beyond their reach. The customer service was prompt and efficient, ensuring a seamless process from conception to publication.

I would definitely recommend their services to other photographers or artists looking to materialize their creativity and share their work with the world."

For ten years, I’ve been printing photo books through Blurb using Lightroom’s book module. Life changes, needs change, etc. This year I switched to using only an iPad and there is no book module in the mobile version of Lightroom. I have been so discouraged to see that this app only allows two size options, which means that my books can no longer be consistent. For a decade I’ve been printing 10x8 landscape sized books and now I can only choose a 7x7 or 5x5, neither of which are large enough to really display my photos well. I’m so disappointed. I thought maybe I could just go to the Blurb website and design my book there, all online, only to find that they have no iPad support! You can only do it via Mac or PC though a downloaded app which is not available in the App Store.

This is hugely discouraging to me. I have been a loyal customer for 10 years and now I’ll have to find another option. Seriously, in 2021 there should absolutely be more options for creating a Blurb book via iPad.

This is my 3rd time assembling a book with Blurb. Each experience has been wonderful. My first book I purchased 60+ copies-A 60 year history of the Pacific Grove, CA Rotary Club. My 2nd was a revision to simplify the first book. My 3rd I just ordered about a family vacation. I am currently working on ‘The 70 Year History of the PG Rotary Club’-an update to current times. I have been so pleased that this company still exists & I can download my old book in order to add add more
10 years of ‘good deeds by this club’.
