Now that you have received your photos back from your Boston wedding photographer, it’s time to do enjoy them. Don’t let them just sit on a hard drive forever, and never let them see the light; doing something special. These are memories that were made to be displayed and showed to everyone.
1. Back Up Your Boston Wedding Photos
Before you share your Boston wedding photos with anyone or even organize them, make sure to back them up. Once you have downloaded photos from your photographer’s online gallery, save them on your computer and back them up with a cloud service, such as Google Drive. It’s even better if you save your wedding photos in a few other places such as an external hard drive, thumb drives, or an online photo album. The more places you save your Boston wedding photos, the better!
2. Organize Your Boston Wedding Photographs
Once you have backed up your wedding photos, it’s time to organize them into a few folders. For example, create different folders for “ceremony,” “reception,” “portrait,” or “favorite photos.” You can also consider making separate folders for “photos with parents,” “guest photos,” “favorite couple portraits,” and more. Just make sure to label them clearly. It’s also recommended to keep copies of all of your photos in your photographer’s original folders, for safety.
3. Share Your Wedding Photos On Social Media
Share your favorite wedding photos on social media. We advise sharing a few of your favorite images on Instagram and a bigger album on Facebook. Also, do not post your entire wedding album at once. Rather, be creative and post them on random occasions to keep the day alive the entire year.
4. Create a Wedding Album
While creating a wedding album can be time-consuming, the end result would be worth it. A beautifully bound book, full of your gorgeous photos will never make you feel like you have wasted your efforts. Coordinate with your wedding photographer or use an online service like Artifact Uprising, to create the album with ease.
5. Display Your Boston Wedding Photos In Your Home
You can use your beautiful wedding photos to decorate your walls, nightstands, shelves, and more. You can make a collage of your favorite wedding photos, a gallery wall, or hang a single amazing shot above as the centerpiece of your room. You can also put framed photos throughout your house.
6. Create Thank-You Note Stationery
Featuring your wedding photos on thank-you note stationery is one of the first things you can do with your wedding photos. There are many sites that can easily make them for you and look professional all the while!
7. Feature Your Wedding Photos on Your Holiday Cards
The year of your Boston wedding is a great time to send holiday cards to friends and family. There’s a good chance that this is something your Boston wedding photographer can help you with. If you like to do DIY projects, there are several sites like Shutterfly that help you create gorgeous and unique holiday cards featuring your wedding photo.
8. Your Wedding Photos To Create Unique Gifts
Not sure what to get your parents during the holidays? Your mom will absolutely love a print of a family photo from your wedding. It will remind her of your special day and keep you and your partner in her mind and heart whenever she passes by it.
9. Publish Your Boston Wedding Photos
Submit them your wedding photos to possibly be published on WeddingWire, The Knot, Style Me Pretty, or several other online blogs. Your photos will work as an inspiration for other engaged couples, and it’s another creative way for you to remember the best day ever.
