Photobook

To make my photo book I am going to use blurb which is an online website which can be used to help photographers to create, self publish and share their photo book design.  Blurb has already made 6 million books created by more than a half million customers and it ships to over 70 different countries. I can use light room to design my book then once I have finished I can import it to blurb or I could download a software directly from Blurb, which also allows me to design my book but it will also allow me to work on my book from home which is an advantage because I don’t have lightroom.  I have explored blurb and found that they offer a variety of different sized books, layouts and designs which will allow me to have different compositions which is something I wanted to do.

I haven’t decided how I want to design the inside of my book, however I think after doing some research and looking at other photographers books I have decided that a portrait book would be better suited for my project because of the large amounts of portrait photographs that I am going to include. I think having the book in portrait will look better visually and it fits in with the style of photographs I have taken. I have also decided that I want a hard back book this is because I think it makes the book look more professional and more presentable visually.
