As a wedding photographer, I give all of my clients the digital images from their wedding day.
I used to deliver these in a beautifully packaged DVD that had a custom image of the couple printed right onto the DVD. It came in a modern metal case, and when wrapped up nicely with a bow it looked awesome. I loved every part of it.
But then Apple decided to release new MacBook Pros without a disc drive in them.
So that cute customized DVD? It’d be useless to any client that has one of the new MacBook Pros.
Just like Apple killed flash websites, they’ve now also made the DVD an outdated way to deliver images to your clients.
Sure, at the moment only a very small percentage of people out there would have this problem, but if you have high-end clients, they are more likely to have one than the general public. And the last thing I want is to come across as outdated or give them something that they can’t even use 2 years from now.
So, I accepted the fact that it is time to move on to a different way of delivering digital images to my clients and started researching. I decided that flash drives were the best way to deliver the images and am really happy with the switch. In fact, I’m so pleased with it that I wish I had done this a few years ago.
Here’s everything you’ll need to know about switching to flash drives for digital image delivery for your clients.
