Photo's are a Must at Weddings

Professional Photographers are a MUST at a Wedding!!!!!!
However
They bring a unique and unbiased approach to who is photographed.   
I was a photographer for 5 years before I jumped to the other side.  Lol....... 
However as a guest, when attending a wedding, you see a lady walking around taking pictures.  As that lady once, I didn't really know the history of family or friends and I didn't know what special bond that someone may have with the Bride or Groom.   
So photographers try to look for shots that are touching and go where the action is.  

So after the wedding is all done and its been a couple months for the newlyweds, they get there pictures back.  They look as beautiful as you remembered them, but your looking for pics of you and the bride and just hoping your in other pics somewhere.  Its ok everyone does it. lol

Im sure your thinking ok where is she going with this....lol  
Well we live in the age of technology!!! Right,  Right!

SO...Im going to just give you my 5 top pics to help a bride and guests take and share photos as they see it, that way you have the wedding day from may different views and angles.
And Brides don't forget your phone even if you have to buy the garter with the pocket attached.  
You want pictures from your point of view too.
P.S. Make sure its on Silent!!


Some are paid and some are Free... But remember you get what you pay for.  
So Free is sometimes limited.

OK.......Number 1
My first one is right on Facebook, you can start a memory page for your Wedding almost like a wedding website but it can be attached right to your facebook page.  You can add your daily wedding thoughts and share idea's and your progress and people can comment.
Just remember everyone can see it......and they don't have to be accepted in order to post on your page!
This one is FREE!



OK.......Number 2
Everyone knows Instagram not only can you enhance the pictures but you can hash tag your wedding name and date. (#mylastname6/4/13) and all the pics will go in a album.  
Have a cute sign on each table or at the sign in table of your hash tag. 
Also have the DJ make an announcement to take pictures and remember hash tag it.
This one is FREE!



OK.......Number 3
This is something I ran across when searching the www....lol
Its called Wedding Photo Swap and like the other two sites I mentioned 
its just a great way to share your photos.  
Setup your gallery and add your photos, remind your friends at your wedding to add their photos.
They keep your photos online for at least 6 months.  So you would have to have them printed or saved somewhere else as well.  However its a nice site to bring them all together.
This one is FREE to Load Pics on Limited time available for Print.


OK......Number 4
Wedding Snap is simular to Instagram in it allows you to enhance your pictures.  
Just a few extra bonus features with Wedding Snap is you can make different albums, one for bachelor parties or bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, or divide the wedding up into albums too.  
The thing I liked was the 200 free personalized cards.  
This is a paid service, which has 3 different pay scales and level of services.
They do have a guarantee of at least 100 Photos in your album or your Money back!
Wedding Snap also has a 2013 Sale right now for 20% off Packages.


OK..... Number 5 and Last but not Least!
When I first heard about WedPics they were charging 99.00, but good news!  They are now FREE!

They have a Super Nice interface online, that its similar to Pintrest, which we all like.  RIGHT!!
They also have a app interface that is similar to Instagram, with filers and the comment ability.
I really like the fact that you can share to all your social media once you put them in albums, 
and yes you can have different albums with Wedpics too.  
This would be my top pic...lol 
(play on words Pick, pic) Ok it wasn't that funny!
These are just my opinions so take the time to investigate and figure out which one is best for you!

Tell me what you think?

Remember.......
......Let Save the Date Events & Decor Focus on the Details so you can Focus on the Moments....
