Can anyone share where they buy their photo packaging from? When I give a client a print (for example, a free 8x10 with their engagement shoot) I don't want to just give it to them in the crappy mailer it comes in from the printer. I would like a nice presentation folder or a box, though with only 1 print, a box might be overkill, maybe not. Any ideas?
I just got some DVD cases from DNL, $10 a piece and they have these terrible bar code stickers on the outside of the box. I called them immediately and was told NO one had ever questioned or complained. Tried to get the sticker off and it ripped the outer cover. Now I have to get stickers made to cover up the ugliness.

Are you talking about those leather cases with the magnetic closing that comes in a box? Those are awesome, I use those for DVD for clients as well. While I've never had an issue peeling off the bar code from each box, I do struggle with getting the 2 pictures in the windows. It's not easy at all to get the placeholder pics out and mine in without tearing apart some of the sealing and then re-sealing when the pic are in place!

Those are the ones. I tried removing the sticker and it tore the exterior terribly. The two images in them are tight! , gotta wiggle them out.
www.paperpresentation.com has some very unique & elegant folding folders that fit 8x10 prints. Sold by packs of 10 so the investment is small.
Order the bellly strap( think that is the name) to wrap around for finished look.
prodpi.com apart from being a fantastic lab....offers premium packaging for your orders if you like...i think mpix has jsut implemented this option as well.
