About

Skippy Sanchez has been working as a professional newspaper staff photographer in the United States since 1981.

Other passions include street photography, travel, portraiture and illustrations. He doesn’t do weddings or sports, so don’t ask.

Self-Published photo books question

Anyone have experience with Burb or Lulu? Specifically, I’m wondering about quality of reproduction in both color & b/w (WYSIWYG?). Also, ease of use, layout options, overall quality of paper, binding, etc.

Perhaps there are other options I am not aware of. I have made a few Apple iBooks, and they’re okay except pretty expensive for what you get.

Thanks-
-Skippy
