Hey guys. Just curious, if you are a wedding photographer, or any kind of photographer that offers their clients cds with their digital pics on them, is their any brand that is best to give to your clients? Any brand that professionals prefer to use?

I want everything I give to my clients to be top notch and professional. Share your thoughts, if you will.

So far, if I give a high res CD, I dont sell any prints or albums. I wonder why? Its depressing for two reasons. I feel I have to edit every picture and I wirry they will do a ****ty print job/crop job.

I am now leaning towards a cd of 800px x 600px images to share by email or website. I would rather deliver an album.

I would rather sell a $1500 package with an album than a $1000 package with a disk. Why? because income is higher. yes, expenses are higher too, but sales are sales.

Unless the profit margin is lower, then higher sales are actually less net income! :confused:
