Printed Photo Books Give You a Chance to Show Off
Deep down, every photographer wants to show off. It’s not so much seeking validation really as it is wanting to share, but having the work appreciated does have its perks.
This probably has a lot to do with why so many people used to come home from a trip with vacation slideshows. It became cliched really: if a photographer was going on a family vacation, his or her friends knew they were going to be shown a slideshow that was meant to make them feel just like they’d been there.
It never really worked that way and always just came off that the photographer was showing off.
Fortunately for today’s photographers there’s a better way to show off: printed photo books.
With photo books, you can create a more engaging story with the shots you took during your vacation. You can add text, place photos on and angle and even include shots that you’ve digitally manipulated - cropping them so that the other tourist who walked in front of you whose head filled the bottom corner wasn’t an issue anymore.
Even better, you won’t have to worry about the direction of the slides and everyone shifting their heads to see the sideways vertical shot. Printed photo books are just a far better way to show off.
