Have the disposable cameras out at the right time
Having the cameras available to your guests at the right time is a big part to getting good results. The perfect time for your guests to use them is during the drinks receptions or just after dinner at a point in the day when there are no major events in the schedule and the guests welcome something fun to do.
If the cameras are available too early on while guests are busy catching up they will be missed and less likely to be noticed later. Equally if they guests have them too late after a few drinks the chances of them remembering to put the flash on is slim resulting in lots of dark prints.
Having the cameras available at the right time doesn’t just get you better photos, with a little imagination and creativity they can be used to entertain your guests and fill the quieter parts of the day with fun and excitement.
Encourage guests to be creative
Disposable style cameras are a great way to capture candid, unscripted moments from your guests' perspective. Encourage your guests to be creative and capture moments that they find interesting or meaningful. This could include behind-the-scenes shots of the wedding party getting ready, candid shots of guests interacting, or creative compositions of the event.
Make sure the flash is on!
This is one of the most important things to remember but also the hardest to control.
Choose the 'film' style that suits you
When choosing the 'film' style, think about the ambiance you want to create. Colour 'film' style re-creates that classic disposable camera vibe, but black and white 'film' style can lend a classic, timeless quality.
Have Fun
Above all else, remember to have fun with it! These cameras are all about capturing the day's joy, love, and excitement. Don't worry too much about achieving the "perfect" shot. The charm of disposable cameras is in their delightful unpredictability and the authentic moments they capture.
