There’s something about self-publishing printed photo books that can change the way in which you think about the work that you do with your photography. If you’ve never tried to create a printed photo book, chances are good that you have no idea what you’re missing.

(source)That book was really aimed at a small audience of friends and contacts who seemed to like some of the stuff I had the most fun doing. I never really intended it to be a money making venture. I was surprised how many people actually wanted a copy of it though - really surprised.

It was a fun experience putting it together and I’ll definitely do it again in future - very differently though - I don’t know how yet - but it would have to be completely different from this one.

One of the benefits of using printed photo books - whether you plan to eventually offer them as a service to your clients, you are focusing on using them as gifts for close friends or family members, or you have a story that you’d like to tell - is that it gives you a chance to look at your work differently.

With printed photo books, you will be able to look at the ways in which your photos go together. You’ll be able to choose the right arrangement, angles and - in general - the perfect look. And the best part about self publishing is this: if you choose to go in another direction with your next project no one will try to stand in your way.
