Custom USB flash drives

There are a number of options for wedding photographers when it comes to presenting the final package of photos to their newlywed clients. More and more, the choice of brides and grooms is to simply purchase electronic versions of the photos along with copyright permission. This way, they have full control and can use the photos any way they please, creating their own photo books or enlargements.

But even here, with technology changing constantly, there is a great deal of choice in how those electronic files are delivered.

DVDs or CDs are the 'traditional' format for sharing electronic files and allow for some beautiful presentation packaging that can become a cherished memento.

Some photographers are now offering a cloud photo sharing option where they don't give their clients any package of images at all - electronic or otherwise. Rather, they upload the photos to a cloud storage service and provide a  link and password. It is up to the newlyeweds to download the files. I'm not sure why a couple would pay a photographer to make them go get their photos for themselves. I think it's better, when a couple lays down money for photography services, that in addition to the service of a talented professional, they receive something tangible in return that can become a keepsake of their wedding day.
  
Lately, I have been delivering clients' photos on truly beautiful custom USB flash drives. These compact drives have clear crystal bodies contained in metal edging that gives a distinct, sophisticated look. The couples' names are laser-engraved in a custom design right onto the drive. The drive itself is presented in a beautiful box with a faux-alligator finish, engraved with the couples' name in a custom design. Have a look:
