Crowdsourcing your wedding photos

by lauras
Laurie, a friend since elementary school, got married last weekend on a beautiful beach in Hawaii. She is now not only a Mrs, but also the fourth bride to use Picurio.

She will certainly collect a lot of photos - cameras were flashing from start to finish. Nearly half of the 100 guests brought cameras with them, and at least five had SLRs with nice lenses. What then was the role of the professional wedding photographer? The photographer did take some traditional, well-posed photos of the wedding party, but I'm betting that the best candid moments were snapped by one of the 50 guest cameras rather than the professional.

In an age where it's easy to share high-resolution pictures, and SLRs and photoshop are prevalent, will we rely on friends and family to capture the perfect wedding photos?
