Photographs have always
been popular, but they are now more than ever in an age where people
are always carrying small cameras and camera phones to capture and
share moments with friends. So why not share photos with guests at
your wedding or special event? One great way to do this is with a
photo montage. At Create Excitement we offer photo montages that will
display your photos on our large screens during the cocktail or
dinner segment of your reception and are set to the music of your
choice.
If you’re choosing a
photo montage, there are a few techniques that can make the montage
even more special. When selecting pictures, a good method for going
about it is to think of the montage as an opportunity to tell a story
through photographs. If it’s a wedding you’re choosing a photo
montage for, it will work nicely to start by doing a few baby
pictures of the bride, then switch to the groom’s baby shots, then
show photos of the bride when she’s a tad older, and alternate that
way until you get to the first photographs of the couple together.
Organizing it chronologically like this really visualizes the story
of the newly-married couple. If you are making a photo montage for a
graduation, birthday party, or a religious celebration and there is
only one guest of honor, use the same model and start with baby
pictures and work up chronologically to current pictures.
For whatever occasion the
photo montage is for, try to include family and friends who will be
attending. Use photographs that include people who will be at the
event, that way they can see their part in the story. Another tip:
everyone always goes nuts for the adorable baby pictures and the
goofy shots, so be creative! Include posed and charming photos, but
don’t forget the candid shots of mismatched outfits and funny
faces.
A photo montage is
something that always brings smiles to faces. It’s a way to bring
back pleasant memories and share a story. This is why they are great
at any occasion. At Create Excitement, all of our photo montages come
with a DVD of the photos and music that you can keep and revisit.
Even if you don’t have an event to display one at, you can give a
DVD of one as thoughtful, personalized gift. A photo montage is the
perfect add-on to any of our services too! And we will work with you
to make a custom photo montage that is perfect for your event. Please
