As a photographer in this digital age, I am finding that many of the pictures that I take just end up as files on my computer. The art of the photo album seems to be lost, even though it’s much nicer flipping through a book rather than scanning through your photos on iPhoto. I recently stumbled upon Blurb, an on-line site that helps you publish your own books at a really reasonable price. The site allows you to create photo books, text books, cookbooks, children’s books, or whatever type of book you wish to make.

The final product looks fantastic and professional. There is even a 10% discount if you order 10 or more, if you think that Powell’s might take a few on consignment.
