Prints for albums for bridal show...Millers of MPIX???

Kevin CTMP

Hi Everyone!

I have an opinion question i was wondering if anyone could help me with. I'm doing my first bridal show next week, I purchased an album cover and inserts for a traditional wedding album to show, all i need to do now is order the prints. I ususally get all of my prints through Millers Lab. there pictures are gorgeous and all my clients are happy with them. However, I already have alot of money invested into this and am trying to save some costs. MPIX is a subsidiary (from what i've heard) of Millers Lab. I've ordered pictures through them before and they look pretty decent, and they're ALOT cheaper (.29 vs $1.79 for a 4x6!!)

anyway..lol....my question is basically this: does anyone have an opinion as to whether or not i should order all my prints through millers?...or should I get them through MPIX...the album will just be for show, and i would order the larger prints through Millers....but do you think people will really notice a quality difference in an album on a 5x5??

any insight would help GREATLY...time is factor...lol

thanks!
Kevin

OK Andy, point taken...your probably right .....although I am hoping more brides spring for the coffee table album over the traditional anyway ...lol

Maybe i'll give Bay photo a try....i see what you mean about MPIX, and the prices are a little better than Millers pro services....so its worth a shot

thanks Andy!
