Before The Day

Wedding Announcements...Graduations...
Bar Mitzvahs...Expecting...First Communion...

Many events in life are best captured through photography. One of the largest segments of the industry revolves around Weddings, Graduations, New Babies, and Religious Milestones.

Each of these areas typically involve the attendance of guests, and as such, require an announcement or invitation. With the advent and growth of the Internet, most people communicate with others electronically, rather than the traditional method of sending mail. Email is a mainstream, accepted method of sending announcements and invitations to friends and family. The platform provides the ability to include links to websites, where more information, rich graphics, video, audio, and streamlined response forms may be provided.

BTD has developed an innovative program that capitalizes on this area of opportunity. Before The Day™ is a streamlined system designed specifically for photographers who want to diversify and expand their business.

Using the BTD System, Photographers can effectively market the service of creating a suite of photographs of a subject, such as a couple soon to be married, a graduate, or a child preparing for a special milestone in their faith. The purpose of the suite is to incorporate the images into a beautiful ANIMATION that uses transitions, special effects, text titling and background music to effectively convey the joy and anticipation surrounding the event to come. The animation becomes a focal point of a WEBSITE that YOU can provide to your client. From this site, your clients can send invitations to friends and family, and guide them to the site for all of the information about the event. Guest can RSVP, post their own comments, and even upload pictures!
