Need a new place to print your photos?      Try FOREVER.com

With Costco shutting down it's photo services, many customers were directed to Shutterfly to print their photos. I have run into quite a few people who are not happy with the printing quality at Shutterfly and they are on the hunt for a new print provider. Right now is a great time to give FOREVER a try. 

With FOREVER Photo Prints you get quality and value. Right now through the end of the month, photo prints are 50% off. 

Looking at the chart below, if you ordered 200 photos, that would be $29 when they are 50% off. 

If you are new to FOREVER, you will get a $20 coupon you can use toward your print order. So, you would pay $9 plus shipping. 

This weekend, there is FREE shipping on orders of $139 or more ($99 for club members).

I have ordered sample prints in both lustre and glossy. Both are beautiful.

Why is calibrating your monitor important?

During week 2 of my Artisan 6 Beginner Class we discussed the process of print preview. During class we covered the warning screen that you see after preview and before upload.

The third point states: "I understand that if my monitor is not properly calibrated that the colors on the printed material may not match exactly what I see on my monitor."

I have actually had this happen. Back in May 2016 I ordered a hardbound storybook from FOREVER.  I noticed that the blues were way off.

This is when I understood the importance of monitor calibration. I found out from another FOREVER ambassador what they used to fix this. There is a product by Datacolor called Spyder.  I ordered it and have loved it. I haven't had an issue since. Below is a link to check it out on Amazon and a screen shot showing the product in use during calibration.

    I've loved photography all my life. Have been making photo albums since high school.  I love helping people do something memorable with their photos. Have so much fun planning workshops for people to get together and work on their photo projects, share stories and fellowship.  Looking forward to making this even easier with new products that will make it a snap to finish.
