However there is the problem of copyright, not long ago, someone that posts on here regularly, (not K-P), took objection to a bride and groom posting their wedding snaps in the gallery on here, because he claims to have the copyright, whoever you choose make sure you don't have that problem after all you are paying him, to take them not the other way around!

you haven't put when but we do have a number of rather decent photographers on here, maybe you may be happy to accept the option of letting a few 'enthusiastic amateurs' do it as a team effort and give you teh piccys for nowt purely for teh experience( or maybe some beer!)

you have to remember that there is a lot of pressure on a photographer at weddings to make sure they don't mess up as you only get one chance. I guess its up to you to decide just how important these piccys will be and as such how much is 'cheap' worth.

one thing worth thinking of doing that some friends at work did was buy a cart load of disposible cameras(pre paid processing) and hand them out to everyone and then collec them at teh end. the amount of candid pictures they got was ace(OK they got a huge amount of rubbish as well ) but there were plenty of really good image that a pro photographer would never get.

K-P only does actionshots, so the wedding night might be an option but he doesn't do weddings

part of teh problem is that people have a misguided view of 'photgraphy' now, they think that because thir 100 quid digi cam can take half decent piccys that real photographers are ripping them off. that is absolutely not the case.

there is as mentioned above a HUGE amount of responsibility with doing pictures of a once in a lifetime event. not to mention the extra cost of 2x cameras, mem cards, computers, flash guns, etc, then you need teh 'eye' to take a good piccy,yes ordinay peeps take teh odd decent piccy, its the ratio of good to rubbish that changes!!!

Can't see it being too long a service... "e i". Don't see the point in such a service myself but I'm not one to judge...

The first part of your sentence is what's known as a comment, or more accurately a judgement.

I agree that giving guests disposable cameras can produce some candid and fun images, that a professional photographer probably wouldn't have access to.

if you want to do it realy cheaply stand infront of a speed camera and get a friend to drive past realy fast,you should get two pics sent to youthrough the post within a few weeks
