Partly because I knew I wouldn’t remember a thing (just kidding!), but mostly because after years it’s the most important souvenir that stays with you. So I decided not to save on the photographer, but to choose a really good one. But then I wanted to have even more photos. So I came up with two ideas:
- Photobooth – the classic, us-centric project for wedding. Not so popular in Europe, even less in Poland
- Photo vacuum – the idea was to have a machine were guests will put their memory cards in and which will copy their photos from the wedding
Both ideas were great, but I focused on the photobooth. Good so, as I finished it 4 hrs. before the wedding. The photo vacuum never became more than a few notes and requirements for features, but the photobooth worked and shot an amazing 1200 photos during the night! The photos are just legendary!
