Once upon a time, weddings had pictures taken by, well, a photographer. And, maybe, somebody who had a Brownie at the reception and took a few flash photos.<\/p>\n
When Margie and I got married, it was all about the radical innovation of disposable cameras<\/em>. Now not only did you get a professional photographer, but a disposable camera at each table, meaning a bunch of (after photo processing) photos from each table. We have an album of the pro photos and a separate album (collated by Mark) of the best of the amateur photos.<\/p>\n But with all this newfangled InterWeb stuff, things have changed again. Doyce and Kate, for their wedding, set up a Flickr site that everyone (who pretty much has digital cameras) could upload their photos to. As a result, they have some 1300 photos<\/em> from the wedding planning, rehearsal, ceremony, reception, and honeymoon. Yeah, a lot are duplicates, and many aren’t all that good — but with that volume they can organize and sort and collate and come up with the best of the best, and it’s all automatically shared by everyone.<\/p>\n Pretty spiffy, if you ask me. Which makes me wonder what the next quantum leap in wedding photography will be.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Once upon a time, weddings had pictures taken by, well, a photographer.
