PhotoBooks

In todays increasingly digitised world of technology a Photobook might seem out of date and to some extent it is. Who wants a big heavy book with a few Photos when you can carry all your memories in a single hard drive? The answer is"A lot of People". Photo books and albums are more popular than ever. Weeding albums have never been this popular since the camera was first within the reach of the common man.

I think the fact that not everyone does it everyday has made printing and storing hard copy physical photos a sign of novelty, Besides that lets face it, its way more pleasant to have a collection of selected images than browsing through hundreds of out of focus and snapshotty images.

Being able to make the layout and design how you want your photos to appear in the final print is a very handy tool to have for us photographers and Lightroom has enabled us to do that with ease.

Steps involved

selecting images from a catalog you choose from lightroom

 The book can then be saved and sent to BLURB to print with an estimate displayed on the right side of the screen or it can even be exported to a PDF.

If I were to print out a Photbook for 20 Pages in Kodak digital 220g all 8x10s with  a Fusion Cover that has a designer embossing it would cost a total of AUD 125 at the service provider Momento. An additional postage of $7 would get the photobook to me overnight

A similar book at Blurb would cost a total of around $60, with discounts offered for bulk ordering.

I think The customer should be charged for the books with minimum margin if they are already paying for the shoot session with editing time added on to the pricing from the start. Maybe a margin of 5-10 percent depending on the volume might be best.

panorama photoshop

For the panoramic pictures I take I start at the extreme left of what I want to capture, set my timer and take bracketed exposure shots. I then stop and check the photos without moving the camera. If one of them looks OK I am ready to continue. If not, I adjust my settings and shoot again from the same spot.

When you have the settings you want and have taken your extreme left pictures it is time to grab a reference point in the viewfinder about 20%-30% away from the right side of your viewfinder. You do this because you are going to swivel the camera so that this reference point is at the far left but still in the viewfinder so that there is some overlap between your photos.

opening photoshop head up to file, automate, photo merge. then select your images 

         after selecting your images on photomerge click "ok" the it will convert

Photoshop (Blending mode)

Blending modes can be used to composite multiple images. As a limitation of even modern day photography the full array of light and its differentials cannot be captured in one shot. Multiple images can be combined together to fully capture the diversity of the lighting in a single moment. y

you can also use blending modes to create flyers

 used a image i found on Google and open it on pPhotoshop
