Hi all... I have been out of photography for a while and have been asked to 'do' a wedding!
The bride has a view of what she would like and coupled with my own ideas it should be a great occasion BUT!
She would like a main display photo and 3 down the side of the page - I have no idea what software would be able to create this effect at all.
All my software is over 8 years old and as I have upgraded from film I need an editing programme to help me!
Thanks for your time. |

I just saw a demo of LumaPix and it kicked ass. Rex recently got it and loves it. I think it'll do what you are looking for.

Buy yourself a Macintosh. iPhoto is great! You can even choose your special photos, once you click a button to design your very own coffee table book and send it all off to Mac and they print it and send it back to you!!How simple is THAT?? |

Not very. You first have to 1) buy the Mac, 2) buy the software, 3) learn how to use both. Just get FotoFusion. It looks simple and less than $100.

iPhoto comes with the Mac. Easy to use, too. |

Oh my god!
Thankyou all for the info - just had a peek and loved what I saw - dig from film is an awful lot different!
The software looks great and I think it's what I need ...
Just downloaded a trial so here goes!
Just another quickie though: are you able to have a very pale (kind of water effect) photo in the background of callages? |

No. Just buy a PC, fotofusion and learn to use it. Easy. Less expensive than the $1300 iPhoto option too.
Some people say macs are easier to use than PCs- i don't know (and don't think so myself) but when you need help who do you ask? EVERYONE has a PC and is a PC expert! :D

Well I can say having worked on both Macs and Pcs that there is not really that much difference for the average user using programs like, photoshop, quark, illustrator, painter, premiere, flash, golive etc... the interface is slightly different the major difference is the price tag,
the mac I used at my last job crashed just as much as the pc I use at my current job,
I like them both get what ever you can afford and what suits your aesthetic tastes both new Macs and PCs are powerful these days...
