Tips For Buying The Perfect Photo Calendar
If you’re anything like me, you have a bunch of photos on your phone that are begging to be printed. But with so many choices out there – prints, digital calendars online and in-store, it’s hard to figure out where to start! This post will help you narrow down your options and make the process easier. The following are Tips for Buying the Perfect Photo Calendar:
1. Choose a Calendar Format
If you’re a digital photographer, the most important decision is going to be what calendar format you like to shoot in. There are a few options, and with each one comes advantages and disadvantages.
A physical photo calendar can be great for photographers who prefer to shoot in analog. If you’re trying to save money on your printing costs and don’t have access to a digital lab, this could be the right format for you.
2. Consider the Size
What size calendar do you want to hang on your wall? Smaller sizes mean a more affordable photo calendar, but they don’t tend to be as noticeable. Larger prints are great if you have the wall space, and they can be very impressive!
The size of the photo is going to depend on how large or small you want the total calendar to be.
3. Ordering Tips
Pricing for different photo calendar sizes and formats can vary a lot depending on what you’re buying, so it’s important to make sure you’re finding the best offer for your needs. Here are some tips:
Get the most prints per dollar by purchasing a larger size calendar in a relatively small format. For example, if you want an 8″ x 10″ calendar but can only afford 12 or 24 photos, go with the 8″ x 10″ format instead of an 11″ x 14″. You’ll get better prints with a larger size in the smaller format.
Start small and work your way up. If you’re new to the whole photo calendar process, start with a smaller size, like 5″ x 7″, and work your way up as you learn more about what you’re looking for.
If you’re not familiar with labs offering calendars as products, try looking at photo cards or posters first to get an idea of what to expect for quality. Reading reviews can be helpful too!
