Yesterday we packed for a tradeshow we're about to attend in Australia. One of the things I enjoy about packing is browsing through our sample albums as we work. Not often are there so many in one place. Looking through them all yesterday got me pretty excited about my own album. I was reminded that there's something quite special about seeing something you're buying in the flesh. Just as you may use a crafted slideshow online, to show off your work to prospective clients in the hope they'll come in to book, a (real) sample album has some serious pull when you're face to face. Sending clients To View More >>

Between you and me, we've just quietly published Queensberry's Photographer Directory. Check it out here and tell us what you think. Enter your own location and you'll probably see we've "auto-published" you (provided we have your website details – that's public after all) but if you'd like to edit and approve your listing, you can do so by logging on to your account on our secure website and clicking on "Set Up Directory Listing". You can edit your location, tell people something about your studio, and add your Email, Twitter and FaceBook details. (There were people working on their listings To View More >>

Every now and then we see a sample album with images from several weddings in it. We call them "Greatest Hits" albums. Even after discounts a sample album can be a big investment – we know that, especially when you're starting out – but this is not a good idea for at least three reasons. 1. Because it's not what your clients will be buying, it's hard for them to relate to. A bit of a puzzle. 2. Even worse, it's not convincing evidence that you're up to the job. Couldn't you find enough good images from one wedding, they'll be thinking... 3. What an album does is tell a story – of their day, To View More >>

It's been a while, but this year Queensberry and Photojunction are returning to PMA's Digital Life Expo in Melbourne, Australia. We love opportunities like this to meet old friends and make new ones … and we hope you’ll be among them. Queensberry is for people who believe that the way to succeed is to stand out from the crowd, not join it, and we have two new projects to talk to you about: 1. As you may know Apple chose Queensberry as one of “the world’s finest bookmakers” to introduce their album design and ordering service in Aperture 3. Far from us to say why they chose us, so come To View More >>

Here's a quick, real-life story about Photojunction's auto-save templates feature. Last week we got a slightly panicked call from a PJ user who'd lost her entire album design. Frustrating. Support treats calls like this as detective stories, and they're really good at solving them. But what happened is less important than what to do about it. She thought she'd need to totally re-design her album, but we introduced her to Photojunction's auto-save templates feature. During the design of every album you do, Photojunction auto-saves templates of your design. It's not an option you can turn on and To View More >>

By tolerances we mean the threshold at which Photojunction's Problem Reporter will report an aperture misalignment. Confusing I know, so let me explain... Photojunction detects apertures that aren't exactly aligned with each other (misalignments) and warns you about them in the Problem Reporter. Because misalignments show up as 'Warnings' in the Problem Reporter you could ignore them and move on to send the order if you wanted. However we strongly recommend checking and resolving any reported misalignments as a slight aperture misalignment (say 1-2mm) is probably not deliberate, and will probably To View More >>
