      Thanks, Enrique! I didn't think this video would be this long. Time flies when you're rambling on... Lol.

    Can you talk about doing your zine? What’s the quality difference and any changes in the process.

    • @MSladekPhoto

      Hi! Thanks for this question. Short version is the Zine (Magazine option in Blurb) doesn't have as many paper or size options. Limited to 8.5" x 11" with a paper (thick) cover and nice (but not as premium as photo book) paper options. I'm really happy with the print quality and value. Regarding process - I did the design and layout for (re)vision in Adobe InDesign using the Blurb publishing plugin. I chose Indesign for this project because I new I wanted have more control of the layout and placement if items than I do in a photo book. Hope that helps!

    Mike, thanks for the wonderful tutorial. I have a question about loading my photos into book module. My current book captures two trips to Utah and the photos are organized by national park. I would like to keep that organization. A similar organization was used for a prior book, however when loaded into book, light room used its own rules set. It appeared to be a random load or perhaps chronological. Any suggestion on how to keep the desired organization? Thanks Jim

      Hello! I’m so glad you found the video helpful. Books in Lightroom is based on photos being in a collection. My first suggestion is to organize the two trips into one collection. To aid in identifying the two trips, suggest adding a different color label to each trip’s photos. Regarding “random load” when bringing in to Lightroom books - that happens… sometimes. After that happens, choose “reset book” (I think it’s at bottom right in Book module?) to have a blank book to start your layout. Hope that helps!
