Review and Revise

Check the work online and ask for as many changes as you need.

Albums come to you as a flip-book in AlbumProof, our online album proofing system. Forward the preview link to your client, and they can comment right on the spreads. It shows your logo, so your clients see your brand throughout.

If images are missing during a revision, we'll email you a link to upload them.
