QUOTE: Julie fills out our quick questionnaire, so we receive a simple initial understanding of her project and receive a preliminary quote by one of our expert designers
QUOTE REVIEW: One of our designers issues a quote for $379 to Julie that she promptly accepts and we begin the process of reviewing her photo submissions. Julie is then able to pay a $99 deposit that goes towards the cost of her book.
PHOTO SUBMISSIONS: Julie shares her photos via a Google Drive so our team is able to review and begin the preliminary process of designing her photos.
PHOTO REVIEW: Because Julie had already carefully pre-selected and pre-culled her photos, she had only picked the best 40 professional SLR and iPhone captured photos. As a result we are able to keep all 100% of the photos that Julie has submitted upon review without culling.
PHOTO OPTIMIZATION: As part of the design process, our expert optimizes all photos for print. This involves brightening, color correction, cropping, straightening, and more. Because some of Julie’s photos were professionally photographed, this step was completed quite quickly.
FIRST DRAFT & REVIEW: Following optimization, our designer professionally laid out Julie’s photos into a photobook that compliments her photobook story. Because Julie had 40 photos, the team is able to showcase larger and less photos per page. Upon completion, our designer then sent a virtual copy of the photobook for Julie’s review/feedback/approval. Luminta makes any changes that Julie requests within 2 free rounds of review and changes. This is also where she can provide instructions to include text.
FIRST DRAFT APPROVAL & PRINT: With no major edit and no text additions, Julie’s photobook is ready for print.
PRINT REVIEW: Once the photobook has been printed, our experts check the photobook for quality once it's received back from the printer to ensure that it meets our premium standards.
PACKAGE & ENJOY!: Once approved, we elegantly package Julie’s photobook and it's off to deliver to her via FedEX or USPS!
