Online Wedding Image Viewing is a wonderful service and all of our clients Love it. We saw the benefits to brides, their family and guests. So of course we started offering it immediately. That was back around 1998, using a film to digital hybrid technique. Yes, even before the digital revolution was underway.But even so, the convenience of flipping through real pages of images at any location whether or not you have an internet connection (or even any electricity) is no comparison. For years now we have been including an Image Catalog with any of our wedding coverage services. Presently it’s taking the form of an 8 1/2 by 11 inch graphics arts printed softcover book with six images per page. The images have the same numbering and categorizing as appears on the website.
… visited with me yesterday to commision me to cover their wedding next month! It will take place in Conroe, Texas at St. Mark Lutheran Church & Chantilly Country! Chantilly Country is a lakeside banquet facility operated by owners Dave & Pam Carter. I see they need a better portrait of themselves to put on their site. (Perhaps I can help them out with that!)
I want to remind all the family members (both immediate and extended) that we will be creating a series of family portraits immediately after the ceremony. We will start with the parents. If they are as excited/dazed as most parents are after their child just got married they may not remember that they are up for portraits. Give them a gentle reminder. As of now we plan to capture the group portraits of the bridal party at Chantilly Country so unless they are in the family there will be no photographic need for them to stick around the church. Thanks!
For those that will want to view the Wedding images, go to the Viewing/Ordering Site and create a login by signing the Guestbook. Once the images are released (either by me or Amanda), you’ll automatically be notified! (You’ll also get a $5 credit, but only if this is done before the images are released.)
After spending hours upon hours of research, investigation & experimentation, I am fairly convinced I have found the least expensive method for those who want to send faxes via the internet.
I remember reading one day about a PC user who researched Windows shortcuts and tips. His motto was “I’ll spend hours figuring out how to save a few seconds of time.” That’s the way I feel but if I can help out some other people, then the time I spent doing the research will be divided amongst our little collective, so to speak.
There are many services that charge $10 a month (on the low side.) Fax1 is the only service that charges by the page. 12 cents per page to be specific. For me that works because it is the cheapest fax service for low volume faxes.
