I love LabPrints products. I use them all!

Because there is so much work to do in the world of digital photography we were using ten different programs. We set out to find just ONE software program that will help us run our entire studio's imaging needs and found it with LabPrints.

We start every job with "LP Production Studio". This creates a project for all the photographs and allows us to design custom senior composites and wedding albums. From LP Production Studio we can seamlessly open the project in "LP Digital Studio" on any of the five computers in our studio. The networking feature in LabPrints is so easy! We just open the LabPrints project in our production room to get them ready to show our clients. When clients visit, we open that same project over in our projection sales room and display our photographs on our 100inch screen. The LP Projection Tool, accessed through LP Digital Studio allows us to show & sell clients wall prints exactly the size that is displayed. Orders are entered directly in the program and submitted to our print lab through the built in order upload function. All these features are in one single user interface.

If you think projection for wall prints is great for sales, try projection for wedding albums! We design composite and matted style albums in LabPrints and then project the entire album on the big screen with the built in slide show function. The album layout is then uploaded to our website. Want to show your proofs and albums on the web? Again, you can do it all with LabPrints in one single user interface.

Our production and sales teams never have to learn new programs. Gone are the days when I would have to answer 100 questions about how to use a multitude of different programs. My prayers were answered with one single user interface from LabPrints!

LabPrints Digital Studio is essential to our studio's smooth workflow, but it goes even beyond that. In addition to image editing, grouping, cropping, and print ordering, LabPrints incorporates several functions which are critical to our bottom line. We use the LabPrints online storefront for proofing, but just as important is the huge increase in sales opportunities this creates-by giving our clients' families and friends the chance to see the photos just a few days after the wedding, we receive many orders from people who otherwise wouldn't have even seen the photos! Income from these orders is almost pure profit, since it's income that wouldn't exist at all without the online sales feature of the LabPrints software.

In addition, we also use the LabPrints design components-Album Builder for matted albums and Composite Designer for flush or digitally composited books-for our wedding albums. Whenever possible, we pre-design a large album and then schedule an in-studio album design session with our clients-we've found that the impact of this presentation using LabPrints displayed on a large flat-screen TV is extremely effective in helping us increase our sales over the pre-purchased wedding package. In fact, we can almost always count on enough income from this "upselling" (usually $2,000 to $4,000 in additional sales) to more than cover all of the out of pocket expenses associated with the wedding! With out of town clients who can't conveniently come in to the studio, we've found that the LabPrints Album Review feature is an excellent alternative, as it easily allows the client to give feedback on the design, so that we can make the requested changes and repost it for approval.

In short, LabPrints is a critical partner to our studio-the perfect integration of all its various components allows us to work extremely efficiently and effectively. I hate to even think about running the business without it!
