Today, the wedding photography market is becoming increasingly demanding. There are many talented photographers in the industry who continuously improve the quality of their services. They undergo training, invest in the latest photographic equipment, and work on enhancing their marketing strategies.
What else can be done? How can one stand out so that clients remember us?
Those who know us are aware that our couples and their satisfaction always come first. That’s why, for many years, we’ve been doing something that allows our couples to enjoy their photos on Their Wedding Day.
We want them to have something tangible after the wedding. Something they can reach for in the morning and see their first professionally taken photos from the most important day of their lives.
Practically 90% of our couples have been receiving printed photos from us during the wedding for many years.
These are 10 edited, in our opinion, the best frames from Their Day. Printed and prepared for them as a small gift they receive as a farewell token from us.
It’s also a sticker, perfect for romantic, analog souls, an ideal form for creating or embellishing a keepsake.
The entire process takes us about 10 minutes; how do we do it?
Step one:
During a break in photographing at the wedding, we select photos directly in the camera using the “RATE” button in our Canon R6s.
Step two:
We connect the camera to our phone using Wi-Fi (a feature of the R6 camera). Later, using the “Canon Camera Connect” app, we transfer the selected photos to our phone in JPG format. If you don’t use Canon, other camera manufacturers also have the ability to connect to a phone.
Step three:
We edit the photos on our phone using the VSCO app (or another if you prefer); we already have our favorite preset ready, so everything happens quickly.
Step four:
We connect our phone to the Slephy printer using the “Canon Selphy” app.
Step five:
We print the photos using the app; it’s a simple and intuitive app that allows us to connect the Selphie QX10 printer to the phone and make simple changes like cropping or adjusting saturation and contrast.
Step six:
We pack the 10 prints in a personalized box, along with our chocolates, ribbon, and flowers.
Step seven:
The most enjoyable part – giving the gift <3
Cartridges for Selphy QX10 – in the box, you’ll find the ink cartridge, which is inserted from the side of the printer, and two sets of paper, 10 sheets each, which are loaded from the back of the printer.
The entire set is sufficient for printing 20 shots.
The Canon Selphy QX10 is a compact printer with dye-sublimation technology. This means high-quality prints, with all the details in whites and blacks preserved, and colors reproduced quite faithfully. The print has a size of 68mm x 68mm, so it looks like a classic square “polaroid” print. It’s also a sticker, perfect for romantic, analog souls, an ideal form for creating or embellishing a keepsake. Importantly, the durability of this technology is estimated to be 100 years, so we can be sure that the prints won’t fade in a few years.
The printer has a battery that lasts for about 40 prints, so it’s best to charge it fully every other wedding.
If you want to stand out and make a lasting impression on your clients, their families, and friends, be sure to try the possibilities that this small and handy printer offers.”
