Where do you get your photos printed

[Gina9942]

When you do a professional shoot for a wedding, where do you get the pictures printed? Do you go through something like snapfish or Kincos, or is there someplace else? I am doing a photoshoot of a family and I am not sure what to charge for the prints because I don't know where to get them printed.

TIA

I am no pro and am on the other side of the world but I have used snapfish and was not only happy with the large size prints they did but also the speed of their service , I do recall ther being a thread similiar to this a couple of months ago and some of the more experienced people mentioned a couple of places I hadnt heard of ........maybe a search in this forum would turn something up . All the best .

Although I don't do weddings, I do get all of my photos printed through mpix.com -- they have excellent quality and a pretty fast turnaround time. Prices there are pretty representative, although maybe a tad high.

I have also used adoramapix.com and generally been happy (they have more size and cropping options). I don't think I would ever use Kinko's, since they aren't really specialized to photography. I hear plenty of horror stories about bad color balance problems through "fast turnaround" places like that.

+1 for MPIX, i've been in a search for good companies and so far i've tried nations photo lab, artscow, mpix, and adorama. So far Mpix is my favorite and Adorama is my 2nd favorite. I would say stay away from artscow though, im not to happy with waiting for 2 1/2 weeks for standard shipping.

I'm happy with Nations Photo. and can also vouch for Mpix, as their quality. Haven't dealt with them, but do have prints from other people and am happy with them.

I use MPIX...I love their quality and customer service!

I have been using Nations photo, did some large prints for me, i was pleased. But maybe i'm to easy to please.

I normally use Mpix also. Great service and fast turnaround.

I'm expecting my first order from Mpix any day and I'll let you know what I think.

I know a lot of folks here use WHCC, too. I've registered with them but have yet to send in the 5 test photos yet. Soon, though - and I'll let you know how I fare with them as well.

I've been reading that http://www.myphotopipe.com/ is a good company to print from. They also print in Pearl finish so I might try them out pretty soon and see what's going on with them.
