Parabo Photo Book Club (Parabo Press)

What's in the box: Typically a custom photo book printed from your own uploaded photos, in softcover or hardcover formats, though the site does not spell out a set club schedule.

Parabo Press is best known as a custom photo printing shop, and its site focuses on individual orders rather than a recurring plan. You will find square and classic print sets, glossy prints, photo booth style magnets, holiday and greeting cards, and a wide range of wall art. The wall art runs from acrylic, metal and canvas prints to oversized 3x4 foot Engineer Prints. There are also desk pieces, calendars and display accessories such as wood poster rails and a magnetic photo rope. For photo books, the choices are softcover books, an 8x8 hardcover and a premium hardcover with custom layouts and cover options. The site does not clearly explain how a photo book club or subscription works. It does not say how often you are billed, what each delivery includes, or how to skip or cancel. If you specifically want a recurring box, confirm those terms before you sign up. As a print shop, the range is broad and includes some unusual options, such as extra thick fine art matte paper, ivory newsprint and keepsake calendars with detachable photo pages. It suits people who take lots of phone photos and want a steady way to move them off the camera roll and into books or onto walls. Check current prices at checkout, since the site does not list them up front.
