Step 2 - Putting Photos Together
What I request is you putting the pictures you want in order. Let's assume you will use photos of you both years ago before you met, growing up, and then life after you met. As far as how many photos to use, here are some facts to remember.
- Each photo will show for about 5-7 seconds unless you request differently. Some show longer, some shorter - It depends what I will be doing with them. That's about 9-12 photos per minute.
So, let's say you want photos to go with one song that's about 4 minutes. That means about 40 photos, give or take a few. If more are a MUST, I can show a few pictures at the same time, thus allowing more to be seen. Also, I can prinkle around with the song to make it go longer, or shorter, if needed. An adorable beginning and end will also be seen but don't worry. I can fix things up to make it all work out. Keep in mind that if quite a few photos are shown at the same time, then we can use a lot more photos. If you have some video pieces, just show me what parts you'd like and I'll work at fitting them in as well.
After you get together all you'd like seen, figured out how many, and what song(s), it's time to label them so I know the order you want them seen. There's many ways to do this so we'll talk and see what way works best for you.
Believe it or not, you're pretty much done with your side of it all. After we share a few more ideas back and forth, (usually one sitting is all that's needed) I'm ready to do the rest. We can call or e-mail back and forth with any questions or ideas, with the goal of you seeing a rough draft within, most likely, one week.
I hope this helps you understand how it works, and encourages you to have one made.
Please feel free to call or e-mail me with any questions.
