Album companies? Give me your reccomendations

[stacyreeves]

I've never done albums before, but I'm starting to get requests for them, so I'm looking for a few solid companies to use. What do you all use? What companies have you had bad and good experiences with? I would like to maintain control over the design, and I need a variety of sizes, from pocket books to coffee table albums. Ready.. set.. go :)

GraphiStudio, Leather Craftsmen, Asuka, LaCie (haven't ordered from them yet - HIGH END!)

There's a thread either here or in the business section with a bunch more.

I tried searching all of tpf for "albums" and not a single thread came up, which i know can't be right.. something's up with my browser i think, it's been acting crazy all day.

Oh, gee, I could make an Aggie joke, but I won't since I really like your photography

I like Leather Craftsmen a lot... They are easy to deal with, and very customer friendly!

i just signed up with candid2000.com but have not ordered from them - does anyone have any experience with them?

I like Seldex (you can get them from Art Leather), and am considering adding Queensberry. They are so similar, but Queensberry is more well known, so bride's feel safe with a 'brand' they have heard of. I have looked at both closely, and they are of almost identical quality.

Has anyone seen asuka's new books? I thought I heard that they are going to start offering the hard pages like Graphi and Queensberry? Anyone know for sure?
