Hi everyone.
Hoping to start shooting weddings in the next 6 months, but need to set up a robust workflow and website system before taking on any clients.
I've been building up my portfolio and doing a bit of research, and the single biggest roadblock so far is the issue of album printing.
Although USB is becoming a popular option, I would like to offer the option of album printing to customers.
After some research, I decided to explore Smugmug. I was disappointed to learn later that you cannot have album design/printing built into your website with Smugmug. Zenfolio apparently has that option, and is next on my list to explore.
I'm seeking any advice on the importance of an album printing feature on a wedding photographers website?
Perhaps album design/printing is better handled by the photographer, and for that reason, Smugmug may be plenty powerful for my needs.
OTOH, I've read some great things about Zenfolio.
Ideally, I would like to be able to offer customers a very simple price plan, which puts the power of print options in their hands, while earning commission from subsequent prints.
Thanks for any advice on this matter.
