Getting married soon? Congratulations! Have you given thought to your wedding album yet? If not, now is a good time to contemplate. Go digital and go green by choosing the iPad wedding album to cherish the special moments of your very special day in an equally special way.
Advantages of the iPad wedding album
The iPad gives you free reign on designing your album
Perhaps one of the biggest advantages of digital photos is that you can create and recreate your wedding memories in many different ways. You can design your own iPad wedding album, without having to compromise on the ideas owing to the fixed page size or fixed number of pages, etc. There is complete freedom to experiment and produce an album or slideshow of your choice.
However, there are couple of points you need to observe. Overcrowding one single page of the iPad with too many photos can be very unappealing. Thus, less is more when it comes to the iPad photo album.
"A CD/DVD serves the same purpose", you might say. However, a CD/DVD alone CANNOT give you the flexibility and ease of sharing your wedding photos and videos compared to a standalone iPad.
The iPad is lightweight
Weighing around 1.5 pounds (680 grams approx.), the iPad is lighter than the lightest laptops available in the market. The iPad2 is even lighter than the original iPad, weighing just 600 grams. This means, you can hold the device in one hand AND enjoy a cup of coffee with the other, snuggled with your newly wedded spouse, flipping through your photos at the touch of a finger.
You cannot possibly imagine doing the same with a traditional one, which weighs nothing less than 5 pounds. You could go in for a lighter traditional album. But then it is neither going to look classy nor last long. Thus, you just end up buying a bulky wedding photo album that you hardly ever go through again.
The iPad is portable
The apparent slim features of the iPad give it an edge over the traditional album. Being feather-light, you can take it everywhere you go to share the memories with friends and families. Carry your memories everywhere you go, be it at the airport or in the flight or when you miss your loved one.
Traditional wedding album's biggest drawback is that it is not easily portable. You either need to take special effort to transport it or call your friends and colleagues over to your house, to show the album. The 'hauling' dampens the joy of sharing.
The iPad gives you better viewing experience
The photos are brighter, the videos are just a touch away and the clarity on the close up photos is amazing. Unlike the bulky photo book, where the viewer lingers over a single page with too many photographs for a long time without actually paying attention to any of the photos, the iPad presents the viewer with lesser photos to view at a given point of time. Thus, every photo gets its due attention. The viewing is definitely quicker in this device.
The iPad also offers convenience in terms of usability. The viewer does not need to wade through hundreds of other photos to arrive at the favorite one. The one they like the most is just a touch away, all the time.
