Full Version: My First Three ShowIts

Hi Everyone,

So, we decided to get ShowIt for web use. And, so far, so happy. I did even have one bride write in that it brought her to tears the first two times she watched it (in a good way).

So, here they are. Please, if you will, honestly let me know what you think. We're interested in growing as photographers. We're in our sixth month of officially being professional wedding photographers. So, we are still -very- new. Oh, we're in Chattanooga, TN if anyone is wondering - hi to all of the Chattanooga OSP people!

Enjoy and thanks ahead of time for the feedback!

Oh, PS - We're working on finding some music that fits our style. Gotta find the perfect undiscovered musician first! ... so, a work in progress.

I think they're great, Spencer! My only tip is to trim them down somewhat so that they fit with the music you're using - either that, or find slightly longer music. The 7-minute one is full of wonderful photos (like all of them) but you probably could prune a couple minutes' worth out and still tell the story with as much impact. smile.gif Then you wouldn't have the distraction of the song looping over again in the middle of the ceremony.

But...fantastic work!

Also, I'm viewing your web site in Firefox and I can't scroll down in the middle frame. I can tell there's lots of important stuff to see there, but no scroll for me. All my Javascript and Flash restrictions are enabled, too.

Thanks for the input. We're in the process of desinging a new website/look. So, I would normally inquire as to what resolution you are operating at, etc ... but, we're changing it out soon enough (end of June). We're going back to all flash again. I decided I don't like how the current one doesn't look the same on different browsers.

Thank you for the input!! I will work on trimming down my future slideshows ... or finding longer songs smile.gif. (I'll probably trim them down to 105 images max)

I'm switching to an all-Flash site soon, too. It's such a hassle dealing with HTML for a photography web site. sad.gif
