E-PICS PURPOSE??

So I was about to schedule my date for my E-Pics when I started to think...what exactly are E-Pics for????
I used my own pics for our STD's so now I can't think of anything else I would use them for.

What are you using your E-Pics for???

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

For fun! I have never gottten professional pics of me and FH done...I can't wait!!!!

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

I just want to have a professional album of us.....I love the idea of it! Some people do use them for their table markers or they display them at the wedding.

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

it gives you a chance to see how you photograph before the wedding - basically it gives you an idea of what to expect - and it gives the photographer a chance to work with you before the wedding - to see how well you pose, how much direction you need, etc. so i think its good for both the couple and the photographer to do an e-session....

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

I know people have used them for montages at weddings and table numbers and also STD's.

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

i am using one for a table chart... blowing it up big and listing peoples names & seats..the others puttiing on the table as numbers

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

Ours were included with our photographer so we just did them.

But we're going to use them for our STD's, and at our RH we're able to put pics up over the fireplace so probably for that too.

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

For fun! And you could use them for table numbers. Also I've seen people frame a pic and display it at their wedding.

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

I guess for some its just for memories also some people will us ethem for their table #'s some people useit as practice for wedding pics. I myself chose nto to do them. im not a big pic person. I now what i need & want for my wedding day. No biggie.

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

For fun Mine were for free. It gives a chance to practice in front of a camera. I would like to make a collage for my guest to sign at the wedding.

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

our photographer offered free r-pics bc at the reception they put business size cards in a bowl for the guests to take with a link to a website that will have all our wedding photos available for viewing.

Our pic and wedding date will be on one side and the link will be on the other.

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

We used our epics to have an enlarged profession wall tapestry made of the two of us to hang in the entryway as guests arrive! Plus we have never had professional photos of us done!

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

Mine are also included in my package. the table number sounds like a great idea. I LOVE PICS!
Just seems like theres never a good time to do them! would love to get it done now in the summer but we've both taken so many days off from work already and still have a few more days to take off.

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

Just to have nice pics!!! You can display them at the wedding as well

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

Ours are being used for our save the dates, but we also never had professional pictures taken of us, and I thougt it would be a great Idea. They came out great and they were so worth the expense.

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

I never took professional pics before plus im using them as table numbers

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

table numbers, fun, and getting to meet yur photographer beforehand

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

i'm using mine for stds, thank you cards for my shower, table numbers... and i have more ideas but cant think of it right now... hope that helps

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

honestly - we used ours just for ourselves. We didn't use them as table numbers or anything.

Think honestly, how many PRO quality pictures do you have of you & FH? Personally - we had NONE. The ONLY pics of us we had of our 6 years together were the ones where he sticks his arm out and takes our faces....and other random things.

It was just nice to have grown up, pro photos done ya know?

On the photography side though - it does give you a chance to know your photographer - how well you all work together. It gives the photographer an idea of what type of couple you are, laid back, very fancy, etc.

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

you can use it at your reception, at the entrance many ppl blow up a picture. Table numbers or anything...plus why not have professional pics especially since its free

but its also good to work with your photographer ahead of time...Helps you with posing and being more comfortable in front of the camera...Dh during the epics had a problem with raising his eyebrows which would make his forehead look more tense so she kept having to tell him to relax his forehead, its good we did the e-pics so this way for the wedding pics he didnt do this. Plus you get to see how your photographer works and their style and get to know them better

We had sooo much fun taking our pics too, we didnt want it to end.

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

They came free with mine. I have seen alot of times where you pick your fav., put it in a frame and place the frame on the table with the place cards.

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

Since you have already use your own pics for STD's; you can use your epics for table numbers

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

We're putting pictures of us on each table at the wedding - so I'm using our epics for that.

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??

I am doing them just to have them for us....if I use them for the tables then that is fine but, otherwise it's just to have nice professional pics of us.
