Fundy Album Designer V6 WORK Cracked
Aurora Benskin
Fundy Designer allows me to produce beautifully designed albums, wall art and magazines. With Fundy, what used to be a time-consuming and tedious process, is now a fast, efficient and seamless experience.
First, let me just preface with the fact that I have been outsourcing my album design for the past four or five years now. While I took the time to learn and use this product myself, I do still believe in outsourcing your non-photography work. But, regardless of whether you outsource your album design or do it yourself, you want to have the best and fastest designer.
After hearing so much about Fundy's latest album designer update, I knew I had to give it a try myself. The first two times I used Fundy Designer 7, I was doing it to see if I could add one more thing onto my crazy same-day-edit routine. I knew with the Auto Design feature I could practically make the album in seconds, but could I make it and tweak it the night of a wedding?
On my first attempt, it was literally the first time I ever opened the program. I had seen a demo once and that was all I needed to give it a try myself. Everything in Designer 7 is so intuitive that there was hardly a learning curve at all. I was able to design an 80-page Couture Book wedding album and then finish off the last 14 pages after processing the second photographer's photos a week later. It only took about 20 minutes total time. Here's the final result:
The second attempt I made sure I grabbed my second shooter's photo and edited a handful of them so I could be completely done with the wedding album pre-design before we left the reception. It took just 18 minutes to design a 66-page wedding album on the spot. The best part about using the auto-design is that changing and tweaking what the program created is just as fast. It's one click or one drag to re-order images within the layout, and one click to toggle through different layout options. It makes customizing the auto-design, or making client requested changes later, an absolute breeze. You can see the final design below.
The program overall is simple, fast, clean and easy to use. There are so many features like in-program basic image black and white conversion, and in-app album ordering with popular labs like Millers Professional Imaging, plus collaging and image branding.
Version 7 is definitely a huge upgrade from previous versions and it's now a staple in my business for my graphic designer to use, either on the wedding or in the studio. And, with a price point at $299, or $119 if you're upgrading your current Fundy Designer, it should become one of yours too.
Or conduct an in-person sales session in Fundy Designer. This can be done in-person or over video conferencing, like Zoom.

I love using Graphistudio to print my albums for my couples. However, I have never really been in love with their album designer. It always took me HOURS and sometimes DAYS to get everything perfect! It made including albums in my packages not so fun.
Fundy SOS Album Builder is marketed to those who develop Portrait and Wedding albums, but other pros and photo enthusiasts are likely to put this one to good use for Family Albums, Blog Collages, and even Facebook Layouts.
I could really use this because I design albums of birth photography, and after being up all night at a birth, I could really use something that walks me through the creative process. My exhausted mind tends to be a bit mushy (or overwhelmingly mushy if it has been a 40 hour induction!) and album design can befuddle me.
Our church is throwing a wedding for a very poor couple in the congregation that has not married because of finances, although they've been together for 16+ years and had two children. I'm taking the photographs of the wedding. It's my first wedding and I'd love to surprise the bride and groom with a beautifully designed album using your software. I'm not a pro. I'm doing this becuase I feel called to provide this blessing for someone I do not know. Won't you help me be in blessing this couple's new life together?
Sounds like FUNDY can put the "FUN" back into album designing from start to finish! I can't tell you how much money I've blown on album templates and I've realized quite quickly that the flexibility isn't there because if I want to go with a different album vendor-well, let's just say then the template is either useless or I waste my life away which is time away from my hubby & 3 young kidds resizing EVERY.SINGLE.SPREAD. I need this to give me more of my life back. I love creating and designing but albums, not so much. I think Fundy could be just the ticket to change that! Thanks for this giveaway and for the chance to win! ?
I want this!! I have ADD of the album designs. I spend so much time going through files trying to decide what I want. Well, with this album builder, I can keep my ADD in check by having all the options I need in one place! Thanks for the opportunity!
I would LOVE to have this! With weddings coming out my ears next year- I NEED this:) Frankly- I really stink at albums. And I'm getting really sick of using the same ole' template for every.single.one. I am shooting half of my weddings in the same, small town- and I really want to make each album special and unique to each bride and groom! This product will allow me to do that without having to break my bank or my back:) I love it:) Thank you so much!
Alright, I would LOVE this for my business and I know my clients would adore custom designed albums of their sessions, BUT, I really want this for my kids. I have four. The first is 10 and was born before I went digital. He has a lovely scrapbook. My second was born when I got my first digital camera. That poor child's babyhood is stuck on my computer. Baby number 3 came along when I really feel in love with digital scrapbooking so she is like baby 1 and has a lovely album. Along came baby 4 and she has gotten the full force of my photography addiction, but alas, she too is like baby 2- no album- just images on the computer. Who has time to make albums when I am constantly shooting other people? And me?? I am the guilty momma who is overwhelmed when it comes to thinking about making nice albums for my second and fourth children. I NEED this. Please please help this guilty momma complete books for all of her kiddos!
Oh. My. Gosh! I sooooo need this. I am overwhelmed with the thought of designing albums for my portrait clients as well as for my own family. I have purchased a couple of template packages, but still find these overwhelming in the choices they offer. I take way too long customizing the layouts. This would actually allow me to create beautiful layouts without spending countless hours tweaking. Please pick me!!!
Ohhhh I'd love this to be able to make some albums and layouts of life with my daughter and to send some albums back to her orphanage in China so they could see how well she is doing. I'm also beginning a new business and this would be great to display my work.
Fundy, you're the MAN! This product is BRILLIANT! You have taken one of the most time consuming and frustrating post processing steps and made it into something I would look FORWARD to tackling! This product has definitely made my "things I need" list. In that list I have so many items I know will take my photography business to the next level but because of my financial situation I don't know how long it will be until I can afford those items! I work very hard to please my clients to deliver the best product and your album builder will give me back hours I spend in front of the computer making album templates (I can't afford album templates) and into perfecting my photographic style! Thank you Fundy!
I have been looking ALL over for flexible album templates and this is EXACTLY what I need. I've been avoiding offering albums because I just haven't found the right templates. Please, please, please choose me!
Mr. Fundy, this is sheer genius. I know so many photographers who avoid making ANY albums because they're too complicated, and your flexible product answers their wishes. I'm a graphic designer-slash-photographer and I'd love to be able to sell custom albums to clients with enthusiasm (rather than cringing inside as I think of all the crazy work!), AND show all my photog (and designer) friends this amazing service. Well done!
ohh emmmm geee!! Where has this been all my life? This looks amazing, and what a time saver too. I sit down to design and it's like I have writer's block. Not to mention the trillion hours that go into designing just one album. I would love to free up my time to spend more of it with my family, I mean, isn't that part of the reason I got started in photography? But, I digress, would love to have this as part of my toolbox to really WOW my clients and continue to pull in more weddings.
Not only am I a photographer that designs albums for my clients but I am a grandmother of 5 children, 10 and under. I document everything each year and at the end of the year I make albums for each grandchild. They are the reason I am now in photography. They are my heart!!!
I LOVE flexibility. This looks like the epitomy of flex. I love lifestyle but as a busy Mom my pics don't often make it into an album. I can tell you though that those few (hard to make) albums that I do have are treasures to my kids. I need Fundy so my family memories are preserved.
I started out as a scrap booker which led to my opbsession with photography. I have 3 small children and don't have the time for all of these hobbies. I still want to display my photographs in beautiful albums, but don't have the time to create the gorgeous scrapbooks I used to do for my family. I would always hand out scrapbooks at Christmas. This is the first Christmas everyone is getting a plain album with pictures thrown into it. I have been a bit depressed about this for the past week. This album builder would be a wonderful compromise, I would be able to create great albums for everyone in my family. This would be create for collages, too. What a fun and innovative product.
