Wedding Photo Technology Takes

FlightBy Rip Bains

A couple recently had a drone take pictures of their wedding day. Some couples have been

taking more creative approaches to their wedding

albums by having drones take their wedding pictures before, during and after the ceremony.

In a recent article, CBS News talks about couple, Emily and Chad. Emily and Chad both grew up in a small town in Iowa and when they got

engaged they both knew they wanted their wedding

celebration to stand out.

They wanted to steer away from the traditional wedding

and instead do something interesting and unique for their special day. That was when the couple hired Dale Stierman as their wedding

photographer.

The couple had been doing some research on Facebook

and saw a wedding shoot that he had done. When they hired him they wanted to

make sure that they had the same thing at their wedding.

Dale is actually one of the first wedding photographers

that is using a drone to capture pictures at weddings.

He claims that brides love the pictures that can’t be

captured any other way other than with a drone. However,

according to Dale, many people have negative

feelings when it comes to drones because of what they

hear in the news.

In order to make people feel more comfortable, they have started using the term “quad-

copter” rather than drone. Dale goes on to say that he

enjoys using the drone to take pictures because he is able to capture different angles and

lighting with the drone that he wouldn’t be able to with a

regular camera.

With drone technology- the bride will be able to have

“something old and something new.” The couple always

imagined a traditional church wedding with all of their

family and friends, but never imagined that a drone would be there taking pictures of

them getting married.
