Wedding photography on DVD

More wedding photographers are now providing full-resolution JPEG retouched and custom DVD with full copyright release. But it is always your precious wedding photos on a DVD like a good idea?

Some people, including some professional photographers believe, DVDs, only on data for a maximum of 8 to 10 years at best. This is probably accurate enough for most common use of the DVD. But for storing important files, gold archive DVD are available, which can not beprecious photos and other files stored more than 100 years. You can suppliers of gold archival DVDs can be easily found by searching with this term in all the major search engines. At the time of this writing, gold archive DVD costs about $ 2.50 each. It 'also good to know that Blu-ray Disc high-definition video and expect the marriage to keep the video is over 200 years as well. For those photographers who are not so sure gold DVD storage for wedding photos everso many decades, I remember the gold is inert and does not oxidize. At least it is reasonable to expect and believe, in 24 carat gold, wrapped in a scratch-resistant coating has more records than traditional photographic paper and chemical process that makes a wedding photo on a sheet of paper! But there are some photographers that brides want to believe the chemical process to provide an image on a sheet of photo paper records more than the traditional 24 carat gold andwas encased in a scratch-resistant coating!

DVD

Brides who could maintain a professional photographer of marriage, which provides their wedding photos on DVD to ensure that the photographer uses gold archival DVDs. Some professional photographers, including myself, is to offer golden DVD storage to a slightly higher cost. Brides who do not prefer to pay higher costs for gold archival DVD using only the standard DVD as a medium through which to purchase their wedding photosto be stored on electronic storage media in its various forms. The DVD is simply a temporary means to share these images with laptop others to copy and print.

DVD technology is not a problem. But the idea of ​​providing professional wedding photos at full resolution, full copyright and public custom retouched jpegs on DVD is the basis for a non-traditional business model for the wedding photographer. How does the new and growing "wedding photographer DVD"Compare with the traditional model "package wedding album photographer" business model?

The first thing you'll notice that what distinguishes these two photographers, the DVD is a wedding photographer is not contractually oblige the customer to an album of marriage at the time of signing the marriage contract. Photographer prefers the DVD that the customer at first glance, their wedding photographs. Once the customer has seen their photographs, selected her favorite horizontally, vertically and in different sizes,It can be easily identified will require the bride's wedding album in fact, that best suits the particular needs and tastes. Photo Albums package on the other hand, the bride some pre-album package does not commit the first bride I've ever seen a photograph. While this makes economic sense and should be requested from the package photo albums, and purely personal interest of the photographer and shows no concern for the welfare of the bride.

The secondmost obvious difference is that the DVD of a wedding photographer, the bride receives only valuable in the DVD full resolution, retouched individual images copyrighted and published in full. This advantage is not even on the box table album with the photographers. And that includes a list of the practical advantages of the DVD wedding for the bride!

1 Cropping, retouching, photo-hung, blown up and other creative photo manipulation and control as they wish for their photos andAlbum (s).

2 When her photographer retires, moves to another state, goes out of business, a company suffers disaster or anything else, the bride has her wedding photos! She has!

3 If the bride is the wedding album lost, damaged or stolen, they can still easily have created another new album, because she has her wedding DVD.

4 You will not pay the photographer have tax deductions half artificial. You can send pictures from their DVD online or send their favoritelocal photo lab to lab direct prices. Of course, we all know that the album package photographers can safely use an intermediary a fee for printing and album prices!

5 Most but not all music needs photographers package the bride and groom on their album order within 30 to 60 days after the delivery date of the wedding. This can often be a disadvantage for the new couple in their infancy and dispositions to organize their new life together. Some photographers areAssault of the bride and groom through this process and that's not really the best way to ensure that the bride receives a wedding album will love it. The DVD does not require the purchase of a wedding album photographer. If the bride wants to order DVD of their photographer, can do as they please on their program when it is finished. You can order an album when you choose one of dozens of online music services. And 'their decision to do what he believes isbetter.

6 According to the marriage contract, wedding photographer with the DVD, the bride is not an album that will lose if you must cancel your original wedding, you can pay. The only non-refundable for the wedding photographer DVD is the holding company for the date. Money and all other contract for a DVD-refundable if the photographer is paid for canceled or postponed the wedding date.

There are other inherent differences between the DVD WeddingPhotographers and photo package wedding album, but these differences vary, since both types of photographers choose to address these issues both in policy and contracts. This is beyond the scope of this article for me to deal with.

Accept the reluctance of so many albums now package the photographers for photographers commercial DVD model reminds me of the same aversion to switch from film to digital photography. So many albums pack film photographers photographersoriginally. It took many years before moving to the digital camera. Well, since most of them have switched to digital photography, still have place in this old industrial mentality most of their profits from the sale of prints and photo albums you. In this case, they want to keep the "digital negatives" and full of paternity and to charge an arm and a leg for pictures and albums. But do not consider this old philosophy inherent in the priceDifferences between digital photography and photographic film as the benefits of any reference to consumers and even the professional photographer.

There are lots of reasons why the photographers package albums still hold the old business model. I'm not sure but I think it's mainly due to photo labs and companies are constantly album that provision of programs and incentives for photographers to keep in mind the placement of their profits in photographs and albums. Otherwise there would bebe a dramatic decline in business for professional photo labs and companies album. As photo labs and album companies have a lot of reasons to keep the photographers to think in the placement of large profits on prints and albums.

But when it comes to digital photography, there are an increasing number of photographers that we feel better and more efficient services and products for our customers through a different business approach. Instead of prints and pricesCollect enough albums to high prices needed for our profit, instead, we customized our price wedding photography skills and full resolution JPEG and prices touched up to our need to collect your winnings. Unlike negative film, which were useful only for printing photos from our JPEG files are immediately visible and pleasant "as is" directly from our cameras. Why wedding photography clients JPEG can be used in a variety of ways to get digital magazine style wedding albums, and muchsophisticated slide shows with music, our "digital negative" is actually a marketable product or desirable photo of what the photographs and wedding album to use. With all of today's digital devices such as large 50 "plasma screens that show more the way to a wedding pictures as a slide show of high-quality look, the music is often more fun for the modern bride how to browse the photos in a small book.

When it comes to prices of our photo-quality images areare some basic approaches. First, the larger the JPEG, the higher the price for JPEG. Secondly, some photographers sell their pictures to JPEG quality volume discounts. The more pictures of JPEG quality, buy a bride, the lower the price for JPEG. Some photographers do not offer the full version of copyright, authorship, and is absolutely not transferred under any circumstances. But some do, and profits substantially and were then only after a certain minimum number of JPEG files alsobe acquired. The idea behind this approach to prices, we sell a professional digital photographer with our work, we sell what the vast majority of customers of electronic media experts really want - digital negatives. Finally, we are still paying for it and pretty, to do this!

Now, if and when the customer wants to buy photos and albums may do so at any time after their marriage. You can still take photos and albums from her photographer or amany laboratories and companies online albums. The choice is yours.

This item is not in any way to package music to encourage photographers to pass the disc wedding photography business model. (I do not want additional competition). I just hope to explain why many of us have adopted this approach. I know that this approach for the management of a digital wedding photography business is not for everyone. In particular, those photographers who are losing money on additional revenue fromPictures and albums when they enter high-resolution images and copyright. This is a very good in theory. And sometimes it is a practical fact. I ran my business in both directions over the years. For me, I personally believe that the benefits to my clients and my reputation far exceeds the loss of some extra income. Instead, I prefer to make more money, looking for more customers, more will be sold by a single customer.

Finally, there are many advantages for boththe digital photographer and the bride, if the photographer simply complete resolution of intellectual property and offers posted the wedding photos on DVD for the bride.
