Give Your Photos As a Wedding Gift
Your specialty may not be wedding photography, however, let’s face it, when a friend or family member gets married you are going to be taking your fair share of photos, like it or not, it’s in your nature, and your eye will capture moments that any other person may not see.
Instead of giving the conventional wedding gift, why not give a printed photo book that collect your best shots, scans of the couples’ invitation, your thoughts about the event and comments made by others in attendance as a unique gift for the couple. It is sure to be something that they’ll treasure for years to come.
Your printed photo book certainly will not be designed to replace a traditional wedding photo album. But there are things that you’ll be able to capture that the photographer hired for the event might not be able to see.
For example, the wedding photographer will stage shots that he or she poses every couple into; your photo book can be more playful – catching the bride or groom in one of those looks that says “this is ridiculous, we’ll never buy a print of this.”
The hired photographer may take photos of the bride during the processional, you can include the stunned look on the groom’s face as she walks down the aisle. At the reception, you’ll also be able to include more candid shots.
Don’t you think that those memories will be as valuable to the wedding couple as the professional album might be? In some cases, you just might find that a well-planned photo book offers them even more of the memories that they want to be able to capture and keep fresh forever.
