5 Wedding Photo Apps for Tech-Savvy Couples

We get it that you have spent a bomb on the much-talked about wedding photographer. We also get it that once he hands over the pictures to you, they are going to find their way to all social networking sites where you can make your friends jealous. But hey! Here’s an idea. How about celebrating the other ‘candid’ style of photography – the camera photos?

Guests at your wedding are going to be clicking away with the latest smartphones in the market. Yes, almost everybody sports a smartphone these days. And many choose a particular smartphone simply because of the enviable camera features in it.

Guests at a wedding often click some amazing and unique shots which the photographer might overlook. There is no way to know what catches someone’s fancy and what pictures they end up clicking.

Instead of simply wondering about it, here is a fun way to flaunt it right on the spot. There are some pretty fascinating mobile apps which let you network with the guests present at your wedding. They can click pictures and immediately share it with the rest of the guests. It can also be hooked on to a giant screen and those pictures can be seen – live at the wedding venue—like a rock concert.
