Creating a photo book

Hi all.

i have a couple of projects i want to finish off really where the finishing touches are producing a proffesional photo book that upon request, could be printed and made by a third party and me shipping it to potential buyers.

I know that loxy colour provides some of this and they do create some really nice quality prints, however, i have to go and create the photo album and its layout using there god awful desktop app.

Seeing how all my photos gets organised and edited on lightroom, i am wondering if i can use lightrooms "Book" mode i believe it has to create the photo book(with some text as well, not just images) and generate a pdf that i can then upload to loxley or similar to then go ahead and create that book for me based on what paper quality and cover i want.

Or is there a company like loxley that has a lightroom plugini so it can all be intergrated and "ordered" directly from Lightroom?

edit: i am based in the UK so i would like one thats located in the UK

It's been a few years but I used Lightroom's Book option - the 3rd-party publisher they were using at the time was Blurb, not sure if they still are using them or not - to create a book of photos from a big trip we'd done, and it turned out very well, I was really happy with the results and would recommend.

I like Shutterfly.

I second Shutterfly.
