Sorry, wasn't quite sure where to post this. Anyway ...
Printing remastered wedding photos of my parents from 40 years ago. Was going to go with Mpix because that's what most people tend to recommend for prints. They offer a black leather book, 8x8" prints, for somewhere around $150.
But then I was doing a bit of looking around and saw some other places that seem like they could do a better or more professional-looking job. The three I found with a basic Google'ing were Bay Photo Lab, Nation's Photo Lab, and Adorama Pix. The first one would be around $250-300 for 24 photos, middle around $150, and Adorama around $100. Found a few others by searching here, White House Custom Color, Miller's Pro Imaging, APS Pro Lab, H&H (though they can't deliver w/in 10 days)).
A benefit with going elsewhere is that Mpix is fixed at 24 shots (or 10), while I'd prefer to get rid of 2 of them so be down to 22. But otherwise, I really have no idea, so I thought I'd ask if any of you have experience with any of these and can recommend a leather album or specifically recommend against a company.
(Edited to add: I'll be sending this to the printer likely by Sunday. But I need it printed and shipped and delivered to Ohio no later than Nov. 21, 10 days later ... so some labs (H&H) are out.)
