Earlier this year I created and self published a photo book with a series of images I created. It was my first time with self-publishing a photo book and I decided to document the experience as a Youtube series so that other photographers looking to self-publish their work could follow along.
The series of videos goes through from the decision making process of how to make a book that will accommodate my photography nicely, to deciding which self-publishing platform to use. I decided to go with Lulu.com, after that point the videos use lulu resources like their templates and guidelines, but most other self-publishing sites also offer things like templates as well.
I would say that overall it was an enjoyable experience, that I would embark on again. The most satisfying part is holding a printed copy of your work in your own hands. Nothing beats that feeling!
