To think it's impossible to find somewhere to print my photo albums 😡

I am wanting to get my wedding photos printed (after two years 😳). Every search throws up 'photo books' where the photo is printed directly onto the page of the book. All I want is high quality photos in an album. Obviously I want to spend a bit extra getting the photos printing to a higher quality rather than going to boots etc. Any recommendations?

Why would any other printer be better than a Boots or an Asda printer?

Are they digital? You can order just the normal prints from Truprint then buy a posh album to put them in. The quality is very good and you can choose the size.

I use these kinds of places for other photos but they aren't always particularly crisp. Also they will fade quicker. Or so I'm told

I don't think the quality would be any different, also all of the online companies do prints. You may need to look on the desktop sites rather than on a phone or iPad.

You can get online services such as
www.photobox.co.uk
uk.foto.com/

and then buy and put them in an album.

Paperchase, for example, is good for albums.
www.paperchase.co.uk/
Or Amazon

Online services do different quality paper and prints.

I got mine done from snapfish with a matte finish they look brilliant.

I think photos only fade quicker if they're in sunlight. I have 20 year old photos in an album that still look clear as day.

I'd use a professional photo printers if you want them doing properly. You should be able to find one locally or there's Loxley in Glasgow who do a lot by mail order.

Boot are ok otherwise, i don't have any experience of Asda but i've never been happy with the colour of Photobox.
