Christmas is a time when we spend some quality time with family and friends and if you have children then lots of festive fun. This would also mean that my phone would be backed up with an enormous amount of photos and memories. There are lots of apps that you can print photos straight from your phone without uploading them onto the computer to print.
Nowadays, everyone is on their cameras to capture moments. Everybody takes photos either if there’s a special event or just for fun. Then you load your computer with numerous folders ‘’Prague-2020’’ or ‘’Paris-summer-family’’. However, instead of filling your computer with all those photos, why don’t you fill your home with all those experiences? Keep reading and discover the following photo printing apps which you can use to print photos that come in different formats and even personalise them by adding a description. Get creative and bring those memories out of the device?
“The whole point of taking pictures is so that you don’t have to explain things with words.”
— Elliott Erwitt
It is still best that you get your professional photos printed with high-quality printing labs offered with your photographer. Most smartphone cameras range from 12 to 16 megapixels so using a cheaper printing lab is a great option to get them from your phone and into your home.
Having them on my phone is great but I am a firm believer in printing our photos. The quality of camera phone images may not be suitable to print large so it is best to look at smaller prints to get the best quality. There are lots of photo printing apps available for us to print straight from your phone, here I have listed some of the apps that you can use to print your photos.
Easily print your photos from your smartphone
FreePrints
Free Prints is a great way to print your photos from your phone. It’s one of the best apps for choosing large amounts of photos without the app malfunctioning unlike other apps I have tried. It gives you the best quality photo prints from your iPhone photography. This is an app where you order online.
After ordering, you get 45 prints, sized 6″x4″ for free per month, all sent directly to your home. That works out to be 500 prints for a whole year which is a whopper. You can pay for more, the shipping costs start at £1.49, never more than £3.99.
You can print images stored on your phone or social media. There are basic edit options like crop, add white/black borders and there are other sizes but at an extra cost per image.
When you place your first order using this link you can get 5 FREE extra prints for the next 6 months.
PhotoBox
Photobox is a great printer app for the best online photo printing. Its special feature is it offers personalised gifts for your family and friends, easily ordered from within the app.
Photographs can be placed on calendars, mugs, posters, books, magnets and canvas, straight from your iPhone.
They have a great design surface for each product you want to order. With the new Photobox app, you will receive 50 free high-quality prints every single month.
Lalalab
Lalalab is great for its creativity when it comes to printing your prints. Not only do you have lots of options for different products including phone cases, but you also have more choices in basic editing including filters and adjustments before you place your order.
It features little details like the option to add colour or prints to your polaroid prints and adding comments to bring your photos to life. You also get cute extras like receiving a scratchcard with your order for a chance to win prints.
if you use the code PGY9CDUM you’ll get £5 for your first purchase! (and I get some too yay!)
Snapfish
Snapfish by far has the best app usage for loading a large number of images ready to place your order. There are plenty of different print size options and different paper finishes.
You can get up to 50 ‘free’ standard-sized 6″x4″ prints per month for a year when you download the Snapfish app for the first time, you just pay for delivery.
You just pay £2.99 delivery each time you order them. While you can split the 50 free prints across more than one order per month, it’s cheaper to get as many as you can in one go to avoid paying multiple delivery charges.
Fellow newborn photographer Claire Butler at Claire Butler Photography also knows the importance of printing your memories. Head on over to her blog to see her what she is blogging about this week
