Wedding Disposable cameras
Ditching the professional photographer and giving each of your guests a disposable camera, is becoming an increasingly popular way for the wedding couple to capture their special day. The idea is that you end up with candid shots of your day from the people that know you best, your family and friends.
To ensure you get good coverage, you may like to designate certain cameras specific shots. For example Aunty Betty, Uncle Lou and your friend Jane could cover the wedding dance, whilst Mary Beth and your cousin Tony can cover the speeches. You may want to attach a small note or label on the camera letting your guests know what photographs you are after.
You could substitute this idea with asking your guests to bring along their digital camera and pass on their photos to you. If they are sending them via email, you may like to set up an email account just for this purpose such as Smiths_WeddingPhotos@email.com
I would still recommend hiring a professional photographer for the official photos. This just means that you may only require their services for an hour rather than the entire day.

My cousin had this excellent idea and placed a disposable camera on each table with a little note asking us guests to take as many happy shots as we liked. Unfortunately the gorgeous little flower girls got their hands on most of the cameras so there were quite a few shots of little feet and tulle when it came to developing the photos! Great idea though if used properly!
It’s not such a bad idea, but in these situations the quality of the filming is not quite the best.
