Brides regret not spending more on Wedding Photography

22% of brides wish that they had spent more money on their wedding photography, according to a survey out today.

Well, it seems that many brides and grooms may be left with regrets over their precious wedding memories after the guests have gone home and the wedding cake is merely crumbs ….

Shutterfly,  the leading Internet-based social expression and personal publishing service, polled 422 women who were married in the past 12 months and confirmed what many a good wedding photographer will tell you – beautiful wedding images are worth their weight in gold and will be the lasting memories of your special day for years to come.  22% of the brides questioned,  said that in hind sight, they did not spend enough money on good, professional photography.  19% of brides also regretted spending so much on their dress and on food for their wedding.  Certainly food for thought ……..!

Blue is the colour of the season

Twenty-seven percent of engaged brides apparently listed blue as their primary wedding hue. Other hot schemes were black and white (24 percent); purple (19 percent) and red (17 percent).

WPPI Winning Wedding Album Design by Johannes van Kan

We absolutely adore beautiful wedding album design here at the WPG and Johannes van Kan’s first place award at the Wedding & Portrait Photographers International (WPPI) is very richly deserved!   Johannes of Modafotografica (New Zealand) has produced an equisite wedding album design using the equally exquisit Queensberry range from New Zealand. The design is wonderfully simple, letting the images speak for themselves. Virginia and Richard, the bride and groom, must be head over heels in love with this lasting tribute and wonderful memory of their wedding day. I really was drawn to tears …. It just serves to remind us what a truly invaluable investment a wedding album is. A ‘DVD of all images’ just doesn’t come close …. Congratulations Johannes!
