What Fundy Designer is
Fundy Designer is a desktop suite for professional photographers creating albums, wall art, cards and studio magazines, with proofing and sales tools included. Album features provide one-click automatic layouts, customizable designs and hundreds of templates and choices. Photographers can assemble wall-art collections and preview them in stock rooms or on images of clients’ homes. Online proofing supports visual feedback, automated email reminders and unlimited uploads. Sales slideshows work online and in person, with AI beat matching specified on the homepage. One-click retouching covers skin, eyes and under-eye areas and can process thousands of images in a batch. Fundy lists more than 130 lab partners and describes compatibility with more than 170 labs and album companies, including direct and non-direct partners.
