As a photographer I am always looking for a way
to provide the very best for my clients; a combination of quality
photography and a way to share that photography with their friends and
family, professional contacts, and whoever else they can reach out to.
Here's the basics - New technologies in printing make it affordable to produce quality magazines with very low print runs, printing even a dozen or so copies at a time.
Here are some possibilities:
Classroom Magazines: One exciting option is to completely replace the typical school picture program in which parents purchase individual prints with a program based on classroom magazines. Pictures of students are taken just as they would be taken for any school picture program, but the photos are arranged into a magazine - one per class or one per grade, group photo of the classroom on the cover. The magazine can have space built into the pages so students can write comments in everyone else's magazines. The magazine becomes a yearbook for first graders, second grades, etc. Classrooms can add their own personal touch to their own magazines.
The Classroom magazine turns boring school pictures into something new and exciting.
School Literary Magazine. The magazine can feature a photo of each participating student, a little information about the student, and a short piece written by the student.
Student Art Magazine. The magazine can feature a photo of each participating student, a little information about the student, and a short piece written by the student.
There are countless other themes that a custom magazine can be built around. The magazines can include the writings of students, short poems, their thoughts, their drawings, or their ideas on any number of subjects.
COST Using a classroom magazine as an example:
For a class of 20 students, an 8 page publication would cost $300 and that includes photography of each student and a copy of the magazine for each student - a total of 20 copies or $15 per student. Additional copies of the magazine would run $15 for single copies to $10 per copy if ten or more copies were ordered at the same time. Larger orders would have lower prices; ask for a quote. Traditional 5x7 prints, wallets, etc of the student's picture can be purchased for parents at the same low prices as traditional school pictures.
There are many options. Additional pages can be added to a magazine, four pages at a time, with a one time design cost of $35 per four page add-on and an increase in the base price of a magazine of $1.50 per issue.
