Wedding Photos

The most common horror story I hear from brides goes like this: It's been a year and we still don't have our wedding photos (or they've been lost, or didn't turn out, or the photographer moved to Alaska).

As a pastor, I know that photographers (particularly wedding photographers) have had a rough time of late, with the advent of digital photography and all. But there is no doubt that wedding parties can save money with photography, or can discuss a good price, when it comes to quality photos. Sure, there are differences, a great photographer can take great pictures, and they are much sharper. But as I've talked to brides and grooms, most don't seem to want or need this type of exposure. They now want something they can have on their computer (a disk) or a few eight-by-tens that they can hang on the wall. They day of the wedding photo album is clearly on the way out.

So, bottom line. Be sure to check all your options with photography. You can save, save, save.
