Wedding in the Park Video

 Couples ask me about a video of a past wedding. This is one on You Tube. There must be others but I have never searched for them.

The Wedding Kiss and Free Photos

The Wedding Kiss and Free Photos

Kisses Abstract Postcard by figstreetstudio

In western culture the wedding ceremony ends with The Kiss, but we should consider planning the wedding with a KISS. Keeping things simple makes the celebration go well and saves money. Lots of things done today are from times past and no longer apply. Just about everyone carries a cell phone with a camera and will snap many photos of your day. Creating a special email address and Flickr account will allow family and friends to share with you the many photos they take at your wedding. Yahoo allows you to have a free email account and a link to the Flickr account associated with it. Email that in a notice to your family and friends and ask them to share those photos with you and you can then store them on Flickr free. You have the ability to have photos made, greeting cards, thank you notes all from the photos shared with you in this manner. Gmail  and Microsoft also allows some photo storage on their free cloud service. Choose the service you like for your wedding day photos and special email account. Sample "BenandAmysWeddingDay@emaill account". Share with all guests to email you the pictures. You never know what gem of a photo someone has of your day until you see it.

Wedding on the Mississippi River Levee

A lovely couple chose to be married on the river levee in Algiers. The reception was then held at Old Point Bar,  in New Orleans fashion.

 The service was a great way to share all the photos of my New Orleans weddings and the beautiful locations. All my new photos now go up on Pinterest, home it stays around.

 I place a lot of pictures on my New Orleans Weddings Board.

 Apparently Twitter is hosting the old photos for now but they may just disappear like Geocities did.

Fig Street Weddings Logo

 I worked on a new logo for Fig Street Weddings, Chaplain Jerry Schwehm to use on www.figstreet.com/weddings. It has  him in a black robe and hat with red stole but as a silhouette.
I need to touch it up more.
