Hey dudes. Does anyone have suggestions as to where I should order business cards for photography work?

Looking to put an image on the back and the rest of my information on the front.

Thanks

I just got the free 10 custom cards from them and they are way better than vista print. Heavier stock, better paper, and better printing.

Fuck vista print, that stuff sucks. It looks really un professional to someone that knows anything about printing. I would check out that link above, if they are better quality at all, it will be appreciated by people.

a lot as in 500? or 5000? It's a good idea to order quite a few, and network the FUCK out of yourself. It will get you business like no other if you learn to sell yourself and your work.

Remember to get a matte print and not glossy, as the matte will be able to have a pen write on it (lets you or the receiver jot down notes if needed!). Get them one sided, something simple but something that stands apart from the rest. Remember, your contact info is most vital, so make sure it's visible!

I ordered like 1000 with my friend and it ended up being a big mistake... Start out with like 100 or so and then order more as you need them.

For anyone still interested, check out Gotprint.net. Prices are super cheap, and they have been recommended on POTN. About to place an order, will give a review when they come in
