Question re: Photoshare cards
For those of you that used photoshare cards for your wedding guests to upload their pictures to - did any of your guests use them? What was the response?
We had them printed with precise directions and everything and not one single guest uploaded pictures. I just wondered if anyone else had the same or a better experience with them.
Re: Question re: Photoshare cards
Photoshare cards = FAIL
I think maybe 2 people uploaded photos. Very disapointing.
I just looked up our photoshare site. Surprisingly we had 13 people upload pictures (mostly family but a few friends) and 25 people as members (ie: registered to view). We had about 200 at our wedding and put the share cards at people's seats and at the bar. I had tons of cards leftover but looks like people must have picked some up
.
All in all we were very pleased and even if we had just 1 photo shared with us it would have been considered a success. DH is kind of the family photo archivist and has tens of thousands of pictures digitally saved (and backed up multiple times/places) and tagged by date, location, and person. It's crazy!

Agree, Agree, Agree!
Boy was I glad that I didn't spend more time/money on them than I did, b/c it really didn't fly the way I wanted it to.
We didn't have a ton of people use it but we still ended up with 160 photos. I don't think that is too shabby. It was a success for me...i didn't still have people e-mailing me their pictures on other sites. That was a bit annoying because they weren't free to download. Oh, well.
edit: One of my favorite pictures is from someone that shared their pictures. I think that helps a bit.
We also had photoshare cards at our wedding. We probably had 5-10 people (out of 70) upload their photos to our site, and 1 person who uploaded all their pics on facebook.
It was a minimal effort on my part - actually a last minute item that I decided to do a few days before the weding - So was well it! We had alot of great pictures that we might not have otherwise gotten. And it helped ease my anxiousness about pics since we didn't get our professional pics back until 8 weeks after our wedding.
