As a photographer there's only one thing
that's important and that is the Photo Print
quality of your pictures yes having the
best camera is great the best lighting
is great the best environment is great
but if you take pictures and you give
them to your clients they need to be the
best possible so what I did I went
online and I looked at six different
companies and I had the pictures Photo Print
I'm gonna show you the quality the
shipping costs the shipping package how
long it took to ship and how much each
one cost let's check it out I'm gonna
start out with from my left to right
this company is called pic Pro the next
company is printerpix
then you have nations Photo Print lab you have
M pics Shutterfly whitewall and Walmart
let me show you the packaging the first
two companies I'm discussed is pic pro
lab and Walmart they both came in
envelopes because I walked in and picked
the bulk of them up so it's really not
fair to compare their shipping packages
the first company that I actually has
shipped is printerpix this is how a
Photo Print picks Kenya comes in a cardboard
box I mean a cardboard container and it
says do not bend but as you see it got
bent as you see it was bit now it's not
Photo Print Pyxis fault the mailman shoved
it in but if that is going to be a
possibility this is something that could
happen then inside you have your
pictures or in a plastic wrap and they
did arrive safe so
the next company is Nations Photo Print lab
this is how nation fall allowed it's
more of a box type and you open it open
it
it's hugged in here slides out and then
your pictures are in another little
cardboard sandwiched in between two two
pieces of cardboard sandwiched in
between two pieces of cardboard so this
is what your Nations Photo Print lap then the
next is Mpix
again it's like we've all seen this it's
pretty sturdy container for the sturdy
cardboard container and then the
pictures also have a slice of a sheet of
cardboard inside the plastic so again
these arrived they were all in my
mailbox
they were pretty safe the next you have
Shutterfly Shutterfly is very similar to
the in pix thick little shipping
envelope pictures are inside again piece
of cardboard for added security and some
plastic again this is very thin goes
right into your mailbox just how easy
your stitch because of the width if it's
just perfect the second company is
Shutterfly Shutterfly again because of
the width it's perfect the next company
is Nations Photo Print lab again because of
the width fits perfectly the height
isn't an issue now here is printer pits
because the width it doesn't really fit
so the mailman had to bend the width in
the length
it was in there but it was been so maybe
their packaging is okay it's just the
size of the packaging then last is white
wall I actually have to back the camera
to show you this here's white wall again
a little box the cardboard formed into a
little baby paint shipping box open it
open it you think you're done open it
again then it's sandwiched in between
some little cardboard tabs then you have
of this big envelope which has a little
cardboard on the back little sheet of
cardboard then your pictures are nice
and safe inside of some paper nice and
safe inside of some paper I will say
this about all the pictures they all
arrived regardless which one had better
shipping material which one seemed more
secure they all arrived nice and safe
except the Photo Print picks the printer
picks my pictures resemble this box that
just bit up on the corner again I'm not
saying it's Photo Print pictures fault
clearly the mailman shoved it in there
and it ate the pictures but that's what
happened so now let's look at the
quality of each picture which is
probably the most important and then
we'll talk about cost right here I have
all seven pictures laid out I did a
sweet 16
and this young lady was amazing so all
seven pictures exact same Photo Print and I've
done this particular test a few times
I've shown all these pictures to
multiple people individually and I've
shown them all collectively right here
I'll start with this particular picture
this is the one from Walmart now
individually this picture is not a bad
picture at all this picture right here
is from Impex
now looking at impacts next to the one
at Walmart you can tell that there is a
difference so I'm not saying that
Walmart is bad Walmart has their place
very fast you need a picture Photo Print in
a day Walmart is the route to take they
can have it Photo Print within an hour
compared to the rest Walmart
quality even the paper doesn't stand up
to the rest this particular paper it
feels like super super high quality
Photo Print paper at home but these feel
more professional so with that being
said Walmart was two dollars and 84
cents and it took like two hours for me
to get it all right I'm still Walmart to
the side now with these six that's here
I'm looking at the camera this you see
as I lift it up it gets rid of that
little glare so let me see if I can
close the window no didn't make a
difference okay so as I lift this one up
this is from printerpix I'll show you
the bend so if you can see the picture
is slightly bent like I said because of
the shipping there's a slight bend in it
and you can see it right there there's a
slight bend in it I would not give this
out to the client I would have to get
this reprinted but seeing them all
together like this this particular one
right here is the one that everyone
raised over it's hard on camera to see
which one is the best individually again
they're all pretty much a goal
collectively this one is the one that
everyone likes this one is from
whitewall but the problem with this one
it costs $14.95 so with that being said
let me tell you all the prices so right
here this is pick Pro and this was two
dollars and fifty cents in the middle
this is Photo Print picks this was four
dollars and forty nine cents over here
on the end this is nation's Photo Print lab
this was two dollars and twenty four
cents right here is Mpix
this was two dollars and 79 cents in the
middle of this is white wall and this
was $14.95
the last one is Shutterfly this is two
dollars and ninety six cents looking at
them all together this is the picture I
like the most this is just beautiful I
mean I don't even know if the camera can
tell you just how pretty this picture is
beautiful picture okay now let's talk
about how easy it is to get the pictures
from your computer to the company
Walmart in my opinion is probably the
easiest because one you can go to the
store once you're in the store you can
use a flash drive you can
SD card you can use your cell phone you
can email it to Walmart there's multiple
ways you can get them the actual image
that you want Photo Print but after that I
think I don't think Walmart compares to
the other six in quality as far as speed
Walmart will work just fine it's not a
bad option but if you have the time I
would go with one of the other six
Photo Print prolab I was able to walk into
them because they just happen to be
local to me so I didn't use their online
app or they're on their software I
didn't go to their website and upload
the pictures but for the other five I
did they're all pretty comparable you
simply upload you know drag and drop the
image onto that particular websites
platform and then you can move the
pictures around a little bit of editing
crop here there rotate the picture so
they all work fine in that regard now as
far as Walmart and picture Pro lab I
picked them up in person so the shipping
time wasn't an issue but we're gonna go
with printerpix printerpix
took an outstanding 14 days for me to
get it 14 days was plenty kids nations
Photo Print lab took four days Mpix took three
days
whitewall took five days Shutterfly took
eight days all the pictures were
submitted on the exact same day so went
from three days with your in pics all
the way to 14 days with Photo Print picks so
if time is an issue you can always go
Walmart or in picks or Nations Photo Print
that for me
the combination of shipping material the
speed and the cost for me I like Nations
Photo Print lab the best now this is not a
sponsored video by any of these
companies they don't even know that I'm
making video I just did this on my own
just to show everyone out there the
difference between if you want your
pictures from Walmart or if you want
your pictures from an online
professional company this is white wall
$15 Walmart Walmart two dollars and 84
cents
it's a noticeable difference I don't
know if it picks up on the camera it is
noticeably better so like I said I like
Nations full of laugh so much then I
bought a Photo Print album from them I
actually bought let me show them to you
right here is the Photo Print album that I got
from Nations full of that comes in this
big box and they really pride themselves
in packaging right here is all the
material it comes in a box it's bubble
wrapped each book gets its own little
wrapping each book is individually
wrapped I mean look at all this bubble
wrap and it's bubble wrap I had to do it
okay so this is what I got I got four
four five by seven books and there's a
picture of the young lady on the front
and then I got two large 8 by 11 what I
like about these books
they lay flat and what I mean it when
you open the book the pictures lay
perfectly flat some companies call it
panoramic nation for lab just calls it
lay flat here's a comparison here's a
Photo Print book that I got from Walmart
seems like I'm picking on Walmart not
the case not the case at all I'm just
showing so you see the difference this
is more like a traditional book where it
bows and this is the lay flat
once you see laid flat you never want
this again so I liked Nations for a lab
so much that I went and spent an
additional three hundred and fourteen
dollars on two large and Photo Print books all
these dis lay flat just just amazing I
mean this book is amazing out of both
books they got about 350 pictures and
then four small books with an additional
200 pictures so they got over 400
pictures and there are all these little
late flats this is the high quality book
each picture looks just as good as their
luster the luster follow the luster
picture that I had Photo Print the 8 by 8 by
10 and the little 5 by 7 does the exact
same thing it lays flat as well very
high quality pictures so that was why I
made this video because I wanted to know
who I should have these pictures Photo Print
through because I did a Photo Print shoot for
this young lady and I wanted to know who
was gonna be the best quality for them
so
as usual I appreciate your time if you
have any question feel free to hit me up
and I will be sure to answer one last
thing all the links to all of the
Photo Print websites will be down below in
case you want to go check them out again
not one of them sponsored me none of
them even know I'm making the video this
was for my own personal benefit and I
thought I would just pass the knowledge
on to you guys nations Photo Print lab is who
I went with because their prices were
great this particular book for I believe
it's a hundred and eighty pictures in
this book was $70 that's crazy
$70 so now you guys have a good day
