I didn't find anything after 2015 on photo calendars. I have been using Snapfish lately. I produce about 100 copies of a wall calendar as gifts to family & friends each year, usually in 8 x 11 inch format. What company do you recommend considering price & quality.

Ed,

I have been using Bay Photo for several years. Their price point is around $20 per calendar if you catch a sale. Quality is outstanding as is their turnaround time. They use a downloadable app for your computer called BAYROES for uploading image files and to select color fonts, background colors, etc. If this fits your needs and you need additional info, don't hesitate to PM me.

Ed, I have been using Walgreens for 5-6 years, and I’ve been very happy with the product, as is my family. I do the 12 x 12 calendar that allows me to put several larger shots on the top, and smaller ones at the bottom. I pay about $26 per calendar. Having used that system for awhile, I find it pretty easy to upload photos and plug in the shots I want to use. In past years delivery was free and within about a week of submission. They have other sizes, as well.

If you are a Costco member calendars are about $10 for the 8x10.

I use them every year with great results.

Absolutely agree. Quality is much better than Costco, Snapfish, etc. Also much more customizable in that you are not forced to use one of the provided templates.

I've used VistaPrint for the past five years. Excellent quality, fast delivery and reasonable price.

I have used VistaPrint with good results for the past several years. However, they increased their prices a fair amount last year. I like their papers and the prints come out looking well.

Been using Shutterfly for the past 3 years, very satisfied. I do 8 1/2 x 11 pages with a spiral binder. The paper is thick, and the printing is satisfactory. The only drawback is that they are relatively heavy. i looked at alternatives this year with stapled a center fold, but these were flimsy in comparison and did not have the quality feel of the heavier paper. I purchase the bulk bundle rate of 50 units for $500, or $10 per.

Vistaprint! Reasonable and high quality. I tried someone else a few years ago and was sorely disappointed--back to Vistaprint!

Check out canvasdiscount. Their main product is canvas prints but they do calendars also. 8 x 12 for 10.00 and appointment size 8 x 12 (doubled) so there is an 8 x 12 print above an 8 x 12 calendar for 14.00. I have gotten canvas prints from them several times and have been pleased with their work.

I use an awesome company in Kent, WA. I do most of my work electronically then they ship the calendars to me. Pricing in under $10 for 150 calendars. We do a proof for color corrections. I can customize my date pages to put in holidays that are important to nurses. I've been using them for over 10y. It's a small team and the focus on taking care of their customers. I love them! I've tried Costco and others in the past but this group is consistently awesome. Their info is at https://allianceprintpromo.com/ To be clear, I don't work for them and don't have any relatives working there. I just use them for printing.
