Best Photo Printing Services

Created a birthday card for my grand daughter with her photos on the front and received it the next day! Now that,s rare! Will definitely shop here again. Thankyou moonpig.

While my initial order of magnets was incorrect, they reprinted and doubled my order free of charge. I am very impressed with how they don't take their loyal customers for granted, but ensure that they are happy ones!

5 star reviews all round for me! I have never used a service like this to print a photobook, so was a bit nervous of the outcome, especially after… Read more

reading a few bad reviews. However, I am truly delighted with the quality of my product! Leaving a thorough review for anyone like me wanting to give this a go!

Photobook Quality: - Great quality material of the cover page - I chose linen with gold stamp text - Photos came out in beautiful resolution and colour, on really thick pages that feel professional and long lasting - Ability to print up to 140 pages, which is way more than other companies offer - Heaps of options on how you want your book displayed (basically fully customisable) - Website and book editor is super user friendly and quite fun to use. Work is saved every few minutes to your profile, meaning you can come back to edit whenever you like

Customer Service: - I contacted their support email as the postal tracking number they provided wasn’t showing in the system for a few days after I was notified it had been shipped. I received an email back within 24 hours confirming the tracking number was correct/my order had been shipped, and to check in on the number in a few days as it can take time. This was all correct, and my order arrived a few days after that! - Didn’t receive too many email updates, however you can view the progress of your order (printed, shipped etc.) through their website which is helpful

Shipping timeframes: - Placed order on 12/08/2026, and received on 24/08/2026, so almost two week timeframe - This is definitely longer than what they state online, however I had read many reviews on this so wasn’t too fussed

Cost: - Honestly worth the $240 I spent considering the quality of the product. Cost more as I chose a couple of upgrades (premium lay flat, linen hardcover and 140 pages) - Free shipping and discount codes utilised

A few tips/notes to anyone wanting to order a photobook with this company: - Use high quality photos for the best outcome. I used a few iPhone images throughout, which came out a bit grainy compared to the high resolution camera shots - Take your time when editing photos, especially for full page prints with no borders wanted. I rechecked my image positions many times to ensure no cropping or page crossovers as Photobook do not do this for you (this is stated in user reviews) - Suggest ordering the Premium Layflat option for seamless quality of double page prints - There are upgrade options at the end of the process (paper quality, cover stamping etc). I chose the standard Felix Schoeller E-Photo Lustre 190gsm (no extra cost), which came out great - Note that shipping takes longer than what they advertise (in my case anyways), so expect longer timeframes - Although advertised as Australian, seems they actually print in Malasia (probably why the shipping takes longer)

Photo print in frame warped after a month. Unhangable. Complete waste of money

Only giving 1 star because there is no option to give 0. I strongly recommend avoiding The Canvas Factory. My experience was extremely disappointing… Read more

and resulted in a significant waste of time, money, and effort.

I submitted a photo for a canvas print and paid extra for a designer to ensure the best possible result. Unfortunately, the canvas I received had noticeably dulled and altered colours compared with the original photo.

When I contacted customer service to request a refund, I was advised that they could not provide a direct colour match due to the products/materials they use. I was offered a reprint instead, but was also told that they could not guarantee that the replacement would be of the same quality.

After numerous emails without a satisfactory resolution, I attempted to contact the company by phone. Unfortunately, no one answered. I left five voicemails and did not receive a single return call.

Based on this experience, I will be returning to Vistaprint, where I have previously found the materials to be of better quality and the printed results to be much closer to the original photographs provided.

In summary:

* Customer service: 0/10 * Print quality: 0/10 * Communication: 0/10 * Overall experience: A complete waste of time, money and effort.

I am extremely disappointed with the product and, even more so, with the lack of customer service and effort to resolve the issue. I would not recommend The Canvas Factory to anyone looking for a quality canvas print or reliable customer service.

I just had two big A0 photos delivered and I was very happy with them. Cheers Luke Foster

Fantastic experience! With a grand total of 42,100 printed pages across 3 flyers and a 20 page booklet for our annual art event, my high expectations… Read more

For the 4th order in a row, images in my photobooks were rotated. 42% of the total images in the books. This is the same problem my previous 3 orders… Read more

had, meaning this ongoing issue with Big W photos has been happening to me for a year now. Previously refunding the orders had been easy, and the last time the person I spoke to managed to get the order reprinted correctly for me. Not so this time. I called the number on the website and was told to go through the online contact page. I did that and got an email reply telling me to return the books instore, and they will call the number to confirm the return before the online people would issue a refund. Went to the store, and the lady there said the online number didn't answer on weekends. Thankfully, she sensed the ridiculousness of my run-around, and refunded immediately for me.

I had been a loyal customer for more than 10 years, placing multiple orders every year. I will NEVER use Big W photos again, nor recommend them.

The best and the cheapest canvas printing service in Australia – I am a photographer and I use this company for my canvas print orders. They can't be beaten on price and reliability. They offer free shipping and the print quality is very good too. Well done, Canvas Printers Online!

I used the Harvey Norman Pro Lab to print professional photos. The photos were perfectly edited and I wanted them printed as is. The prints came back… Read more

very poor quality with the exposure reduced and contrast increased to the point that most of the detail (including faces) was lost. I contacted Customer Service and they said the issue was the result of their auto-enhance filter they apply to prints. I asked them to turn auto-enhance off. Apparently this is not possible. If you are happy with your images before they go to print, I recommend avoiding this service.

I’ve been using this company for years to produce my photo books. I like to be in control of the editing process and the downloaded software is easy… Read more

to use. I’m always very happy with my book when it arrives. The price point for the products is very reasonable. My only comment to the company is to have all the themed graphics available for any of the photo book style ordered. Thanks for a great product

Have ordered business cards several times and the price, quality and delivery speed has been exceptional every time.

I found Albumworks user friendly in putting my album together and the delivery time surprisingly quick. I ordered the lay flat option which ended up… Read more

thicker and heavier than expected, but so worth it! My travel book to China looks amazing with statement photos spread across double pages and not losing anything in the centre fold. Impressed with colours and quality. Had a couple of typos, but can’t blame Albumworks :( Can’t wait to do my next photo book!

Such a beautifully made book so showcase our wedding! The quality is perfect, it was also so fun and easy to make on line - will be keeping this forever

Love the photobooks! The specials are the best way to get a voucher - much cheaper than rack-rate. Great printing & lovely products produced.… Read more

Download the software, prepare your book, then you know how many pages you need before you buy your voucher. Been using this company for many years & always great to deal with.

Have use these guys a few times now, excellent fast and friendly service, quick to replace if arrives damaged, due to no fault of there own. Wouldn't use anyone else. Thanks AAA+

I've used them for about 15 years with also zero problem. I have another printer that takes care of my more luxe cards but these have always been… Read more

great for fast quick stickers and cards. I just got a roll of wrong stickers, and I was in chat having difficulty with uploading my photo files of what they sent but the customer service person put a replacement through for me before I could even send them all through. Thank you, I really appreciate your customer service!

I just received my first order with 4 canvases. They are absolutely brilliant. I am so pleased with them. I definitely recommend Stella canvas and I… Read more

will buy from here again. It is now several month later and I have ordered another 4 canvasses and again I absolutely love the quality. I definitely recommend Stella canvas again. All 8 of the canvasses have been of outstanding quality.

Nothing is too much trouble! – Doesn't matter what the issue is, they will respond to your emails promptly and fix your stuff-ups in a flash!!! I've done a few weird things with my… Read more

orders over the many years of using them and they always fix everything for me. And oh... the product is excellent too!

A SCAM. Stay Away. You will pay and never hear back from them. I wish I had checked Product review before ordering. Don't make the same mistake. I… Read more

have asked my bank to change my credit card too. Really disgusting. Email to picture store was returned (Mailer Daemon, the following recipient could not be reached rich_jedi@outlook.com. That says it all. I have put 1 star bc there is no option to put zero star.

Despite providing this information to Bell Print, they continue to claim they distributed them. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME USING BELL PRINT!!!

request on their email address. No response ! This a bad sign , not replying to customers queries is the start of the slippery slope to bankruptcy.

I spent HOURS upon HOURS creating a 12x12 layflat book — carefully choosing every photo, adjusting every detail, and making sure it was perfect… Read more

because it’s a birthday gift. For the amount of money I spent, and the level of detail that went into this project, I expected at the very least a keepsake box that actually protects it.

The book arrived in a ripped box. Not dented — ripped. I contacted customer service, sent photos, explained the issue, and they sent a replacement. The replacement box arrived today and it is the exact same size as the damaged one. It’s still too small for the book. I sent more photos, explained everything clearly, and asked for a manager.

Customer service acknowledged the photos… and then stopped responding. Completely. I sat there waiting, saying “Hello?” and asking again for a manager, and got nothing. This is supposed to be a birthday gift, and the experience has been the opposite of “happiness guaranteed.”

On top of that, you can’t even change the font size on the spine, which is ridiculous for a premium book. After all the time, effort, and money I put into this 12x12 layflat, the fact that the box doesn’t fit — twice — is unacceptable. If you’re going to charge premium prices, at least provide a box that actually protects the product.

After this experience, my next layflat will be done with Shutterfly.

My photo album for my husbands 50th arrived 2 weeks after the order (came from Australia to NZ) in perfect condition. I'm very happy with my purchase.

Over the 13 years I’ve been a customer, I have always been delighted with the quality, price and speedy delivery of my order. On the odd occasion… Read more

that I have needed help (due to my stuff up, not Blurbs) I have found Blurb support to be absolutely awesome. Recently though, I had a major problem and I have to say their service was above and beyond awesome! Having published 60 books with Blurb I recommend them as the first stop for anyone wanting to self publish in Australia (my country), but guess this probably applies in other countries also. Thank you Blurb!

I ordered a printed shirt for Father's day and paid $31 AUD for express postage to ensure it arrives on time and at checkout it said it would arrive… Read more

in time. After it had been printed and dispatched the tracking information now said the order would arrive 3 days late. When I contacted Optimalprint the AI chat bot said:

"To be transparent about what happened: there was an initial issue with the shipping label generation which caused a brief delay in the print process. This has since been resolved, and your package is now actively moving through the courier's network"

The chat bot also ended the chat as it said this was a resolution (which it isn't). I ended up having to go back through the chat to speak to a real person on the chat who said there is nothing they can do until the order arrives late then they can refund me the shipping that I paid as compensation.

This is not a sufficient resolution as I needed the shirt by Fathers Day and now have no gift to give him. He is 88 and lives 3 hours from me so I will now have to post the shirt at a later date and spend more money on postage to get it to him, I won't be able to see his response/joy on opening his gift so the gift now doesn't feel as special as it was intended to be.

The main issues I have found with Optimal print is that there is no contact number to raise issues with someone in person. Everything is through their online chat. Chatbot is available 24/7 but I contacted at 9am on a weekday to speak to a human and chatbot said there was no one online so I would have to wait for a response. So clearly there is no local staff that can deal with local issues.

The money/refund is not the issue - the issue is the reliability of the service and the inability to find a working solution when things go wrong.

In future I will rather pay a little bit extra to use a local company in Australia who has a phone number and humans I can talk to to resolve issues. Also a company who has more pride in ensuring they are able to fulfil the orders in a promised timeframe. I cannot recommend Optimalprint as a company and encourage others to find alternatives to these large companies who more and more often these days have cut their spending in real time customer service.

Okay these guys fkn annoyed me. There is no customer service for the online store, no one to call or talk to about your order they also dont provide… Read more

any tracking infomation about your order or regarding where your order is in the process. Since there is no one to call you end up calling a store which has nothing to do with your order online as its a different inventory to in store printing. So the staff in the store needs to email or contact the online team to streamline your order, but you cannot physically get in contact with them yourself. I then cancelled my order online and I am still waiting for my full refund after 2 weeks and I re did the printing through the store that helped me but I could not get frames as that is ONLY an online offer.

Anyways I would not print from here, online is shit. The stores are helpful and the staff that helped me were amazing but felt bad that they needed to deal with something that wasn't their issue!

DANGEROUS FALLS OFF WALL!!!!!! – Extremely dangerous glass prints that has fallen off the wall with vinyl at the back peeling. Contacted [Name Removed] from Prints on Glass who… Read more

admitted the supplier they used was faulty. They then want ME to pay AGAIN for a new print and pay for shipping. Can’t believe a company can operate like this. Hanging glass on a wall is extremely dangerous, knowing the product was faulty and not recalling it shocks me! It missed my kids by 1m! It could have been an extremely different outcome. DO NOT PURCHASE AND AVOID AT ALL COSTS!
