Oct 17, 2011 13:35 | #3 Wow... They don't even give you decent cameras... Premium 5.3 megapixels Polaroid digital cameras with large 2.5" screens and instructions attached so that friends and family can easily take high quality wedding photos and videos.

ssim POTN Landscape & Cityscape Photographer 2005  10,884 posts Likes: 6 Joined Apr 2003 Location: southern Alberta, Canada More info | I could see this working to some degree. I think it would be a great idea for a couple to do this in addition to the hired photographer as long as the two don't clash. This is not a great deal different than those weddings that have disposable cameras at the wedding for guests to use and then give them to the couple. My life is like one big RAW file....way too much post processing needed.

I was thinking about that for a second... then I was thinking about if I was the paid photog for the wedding, and all of the guests that didn't have cameras already were provided with cameras... it sounds like an absolute nightmare to me.

Intrusive family members with cameras are bad enough, but if they somehow felt enabled and empowered by the bride and groom to be part of the process it would be unbearable.

tonylong ...winded More info | Oct 17, 2011 16:52 | #13 It's obviously aimed towared couples who can't afford a "professional". And seriously, there are tons of people like that getting married. So, if this business can appeal to them to pony up some money, well, it has less to do with comparing them to professionals and more to do with whether their service as a whole is "value" compared to Uncle Joe running around with a P&S.
