Outcome of our wedding photos selection (27/10/2009)

The wedding photos selection is really tedious!!! Luckily it's over.

1 week after the photoshoot(23/10/2009), our photos were ready for selection. Hence, we went down to Venus after my training at Bukit Merah.Reached Venus at about 3.30pm. Initially thought we could complete it within 2 hours. We were wrong!!!

We were surprised to see 600 photos in 2R format (20 big pieces with 30 photos each). It could have been more. Noticed that quite alot of photos were being deleted (Based on the jump in the photo ref). They have did some colour enhancement and editing which looks really nice. We have discussed on the selection criteria (Gregory will do the first round of deletion, follow by me). For every single backdrop, we will choose max 5 photos and will further eliminate from there.

After 5 hours of selection, we only managed to eliminate 500 photos. Still got 30 more to go. Furthermore, we have yet to check our photos using the PC to ensure that the photos are okay when enlarged. As we are both very tired, we decided to call it a day and go on another day.

On Tuesday afternoon 12 pm, with my mama accompanying me, I made my way down to Venus again to do the remaining elimination. Bearing in mind that I do not want too many repeated poses or backdrop appearing, i will try my best to cross out more photos.

I can choose up to max of 26 layouts, 70 photos for my 2 albums.

My final selection was as follow

Indoor Album (Portrait album)
1) Bustier tube layered gown - White backdrop (3 photos)
2) Bustier tube layered gown - Night scenery backdrop (2 photos)
3) Purple feather evening gown - Classic victorian chair and staircase backdrop (3 photos)
4) Purple feather evening gown - Grandfather's clock and chandellier backdrop (3 photos)
