Re: Those who get professional Christmas pics...

Thanks all- I went with Simply to Impress because they had a design I really liked. I heard good things about them.
I contacted them and asked about the color correction etc and they said to just note it in the special requests section- so I put a note in there to not color correct or retouch the images in anyway.
They have a satisfaction guarantee so hopefully it will be fine.
So we'll see!

Mpix all the way! Wait for a coupon..they just had holiday cards but my guess is they will run another special. I upload my professional pics every year and they come out fabulous! It is the only one my photographer uses, its worth a few extra bucks IMO.

Our pictures, while taken by yours truly, are of professional quality. I always order our folded cards from Shutterfly...except last year, they didn't have what I wanted. I've never had an issue with color. I do not like their actual prints at all though. I use Mpix for that. Actually I lied lol...I did use Shutterfly last year!!! (I had ordered their snowflake ornament cards...which were pretty awesome!)

I think if you turn off the color correction in Shutterfly it's fine.
I just discovered that this year while playing around and from this thread.
In the past I have left it on the default which is Auto and the color was funky a few times.

Re: Those who get professional Christmas pics...

I design my own and print with a photography printer but I have accounts with them because of my side business.

MPIX quality is great, always has been. Minted is as well, but they're just as expensive as MPIX, even moreso from what I found last year when I was too lazy to design my own. If you wait until November you can get discount codes for both though. For all of them, really.

Last year a friend used Shutterfly for her cards and I have to say I was really impressed by the quality.

I use Etsy, Tiny Prints and Shutterfly. Unless I fall in love with something on Etsy, I use one of the other two because I always have a coupon code for one or both
