How will I receive my wedding photos?

A commonly asked question that I get asked all the time is “How will I receive my wedding photos”

When I first started as a wedding photographer in Sydney in 2012, I did what everyone else did and provide a DVD with all of your wedding photography. Not only was I restricted to 4GB of storage, it was incredibly slow to copy. It would literally take 4 DVD’s just to fit all of the photos. In addition to this, if my clients lost their DVDs they would have to ask me for the photos again. Luckily, I would have a backup saved somewhere, but imagine if I didn’t and all of the memories were on those discs and you lost them…

Did you know that Apple no longer has DVD players in their iMacs and Macbooks? In their eyes, DVD’s are obsolete. In a few years time, no one will have a DVD player.

Enter USB’s. They are cheap, easy and portable. You can copy multiple versions of your photos, take them anywhere and show your friends and family. You can copy them to your computer. It’s good until they do a EPIC FAIL on you and you can’t read it anymore. Don’t even mention the MAC/PC compatibility issues. Everyone has a story of when a USB failed on them….again, imagine all of your wedding photos were on that USB and it stopped working….

And guess what, they are releasing a new USB C which will make your USB’s obsolete in a few years.

As a professional wedding photographer in Sydney, I knew there had to be a better way of storing your digital photos with confidence it will be there in 5, 10, 15 years time. Future proof your photos that not only look good but it will still be around when you need it.

Enter Shootproof!

I’ve been using Shootproof for over 2 years now and it has made my clients extremely happy.

Here’s why you’ll love your Shootproof photo gallery

Your photos will look amazing and take centre stage. Even on your iPhone.

Your wedding photography will be showcased with beautiful online galleries, complete with a slideshow functionality. Notice how all of your images are displayed in a tile format so it shows you a story. Not only does it look great on a desktop, it’s fully optimised for mobile.

You don’t need to scroll through the entire gallery

The great thing about Shootproof is that your photos are displayed in stories of the day, example, Sarah Getting Ready, Brad Getting Ready, The First Look, The Ceremony etc. That way you can locate your photos quickly and not bore your friends and family with every photo of your wedding day. Trust me, only you and your future husband will sit through all of your photos for hours on end, not everyone will share the same enthusiasm!

You can download all of your photos in one go

The gallery allows you to download all of your photos in one go, but you can also download particular photos one at a time if that’s your thing.

Peace of mind

Your gallery is secured by password protection and a private URL, plus you can hide certain “Embarrasing” photos away from your mother in law and other zealous relatives.

Share the Love

You can easily share photos  on Facebook and Twitter right from your gallery

Tag your favourites

Save your favourites so you can access them again and again and again

Purchase professional prints from the gallery

Purchase your photos directly from your gallery with ease via HC Pro Labs based in Melbourne. Your photos will be professionally printed and shipped right to your door, saving you time and effort. The quality is amazing and far better than any department store (yes, that’s you Kmart).

Ok, so that’s how you will receive your photos digitally.

Of course, if you’ve ordered a wedding album from me then you’ll have this too.
