GROUP PHOTOS AND SPECIFIC IMAGES ON YOUR BIG DAY - NEW PROTOCOL

Beginning today, if you have any specific shots you definitely must have, I will require these in writing on email at least a week before the Wedding. I will bring a tick sheet with me and once complete I will request these be signed off by the bride & groom.

While photographers always endeavour to capture everything asked for, we have to have it in our terms and conditions that we cannot guarantee everything because of a lot of constraints out of our control.

When guests or family members are not there during the group photos part of the day and miss things, I always come back a few times to the same shots to hope they’ve turned up.

A lot of the time, children will want to go play and sometimes don’t wish for their photos to be taken. Sometimes this can be the same with adult guests. It is my job to try to get the best out of everyone.

The last week of Wedding Summer Madness.

Today I’m up in Derbyshire. Tomorrow I’ll be in Solihull. Saturday will be in Cheshire. And Sunday up in Nottingham.

After this it’ll be blasting through the backlog of photos and video editing for all my lovely couples.

Thanks for bearing with me everyone 🙂

Jonathon.

FIBRE BROADBAND ALMOST HERE!!

I cannot wait for my village to finally have the new Fibre Full Internet switched on. At the moment, uploading to the Google Drive looks like as seen in the uploading photo. This is an 8.2GB movie file for one of my lovely couples. The timer doesn't always sit like that, it's usually 5-8 hours and then at some point this afternoon, it'll fly down to a few hours left.

Current Internet - Openreach Broadband
Speed - 33Mb Download / 5-8Mb Upload

Full Fibre Broadband - FTTP "Fibre To The Property"
Speed - 1600-1700Mb Download / 115-180Mb Upload

When I finally get the proper full-speed internet, it will be so much quicker and easier to get all my customer photos and movies uploaded to my secure cloud account. And from there, I send the links out and it's a simple click to download everything.

This has superseded sending out USB packs because customers are running into issues if they do not have a proper Windows PC or Mac desktop computer (or proper laptop). So many people these days are reliant on smartphones, tablets (iPads) and Smart TVs. But these aren't always compatible with USB sticks. Using the USD in a smart TV often only lets customers get to 500 or 1000 of the full set of photos (it's the TV's inbuilt software that sees a folder of JPEG photos as 'chapters of a movie'. But not even Lord of the Rings has 500+ chapters!).

So now, it doesn't seem to matter what device is used to download from the Google Drive. The Google Drive app is free on all platforms too, offering a nice viewer / downloader interface.
