Title: Wedding photo request
Post by: on Wed 13/12/2006 16:52:25
Hello! I'm aware that quite a few people here are married, and I have a very small favour to ask. As you may be aware in 2007 Screen 7 officially begins doing paid work, predominantly in the video sector. This includes wedding videos, corporate videos, music videoes etc. I've made a sub-section of the website for the wedding videos, which looks quite nice but it's fairly bland at the same time.

I'm looking for someone, or anyone, or anytwo that might be happy for me to use a photograph from their wedding as a "background" for the wedding website. We've filmed one wedding so far, and although I could use some screen-caps for that, it's actually a tougher process than say, one of you lovely peoples send me a JPG photo that was taken by a photographer at your wedding, no matter how pro or unprofessional it looks.

I don't want to use Google images for once, for fear of copyright, and my friend who takes photos and wedding photos doesn't seem to want me to use hers, which is fair enough - again I think it's because they are copyright the company she works for.

If you might be happy for me to use one of your photos as a website background or screenshot (its just to give the site a bridal feel, rather than claim the image is something we've shot or anything like that) would you be able to post it up here, PM or email me a pic or two? I'd be very greatful, if you want you can be credited on the site or simply remain anonymous.

It's entirely up to you. Many thanks if you're interested :)

I'll take a look at the digital pictures that I have when I get home, but I'm not sure I have anything of a high quality.  All the digital pictures I have were emailed to me from friends and relatives, none of whom have particularly high photography skills.  I need to get our professional pictures to a scanner sometime...

If I have something that doesn't look all blurry and off-centered I'll send it your way.

Nikolas, no problem, but thanks for looking into it :)

Vince, quality isn't essential, because that's where my PSP skillz come into play. If you do manage to find anything I'd be extremely greatful :)

Matt: In your dreams, buddy! ;) :P

Thanks again!

Chicky, that seems perfect - thanks! The license seems to suggest they are free to use on websites, so great! Yaay :) Problem solved!

I'm still open to other photos but only if people can be bothered :)

I don't have any wedding photos, but you're welcome to use anything to my name if need be.
