So I was about to schedule my date for my E-Pics when I started to think...what exactly are E-Pics for???? I used my own pics for our STD's so now I can't think of anything else I would use them for.
What are you using your E-Pics for???

I just want to have a professional album of us.....I love the idea of it! Some people do use them for their table markers or they display them at the wedding.

it gives you a chance to see how you photograph before the wedding - basically it gives you an idea of what to expect - and it gives the photographer a chance to work with you before the wedding - to see how well you pose, how much direction you need, etc. so i think its good for both the couple and the photographer to do an e-session....

Ours were included with our photographer so we just did them.
But we're going to use them for our STD's, and at our RH we're able to put pics up over the fireplace so probably for that too.

For fun! And you could use them for table numbers. Also I've seen people frame a pic and display it at their wedding.

For fun Mine were for free. It gives a chance to practice in front of a camera. I would like to make a collage for my guest to sign at the wedding.

our photographer offered free r-pics bc at the reception they put business size cards in a bowl for the guests to take with a link to a website that will have all our wedding photos available for viewing.
Our pic and wedding date will be on one side and the link will be on the other.

We used our epics to have an enlarged profession wall tapestry made of the two of us to hang in the entryway as guests arrive! Plus we have never had professional photos of us done!

Definitely agree with this. After we took the e-pics we went back to the studio w/ our photographer and looked them over. My FH is a foot taller than me and our photographer pointed out how in some pics I was reaching up to him or he was bending down to me which looked kind of akward. He was then showing us the types of pictures that worked and what looked good. It gives the photographer a great guide for the wedding day.

Mine are also included in my package. the table number sounds like a great idea. I LOVE PICS! Just seems like theres never a good time to do them! would love to get it done now in the summer but we've both taken so many days off from work already and still have a few more days to take off.

Ours are being used for our save the dates, but we also never had professional pictures taken of us, and I thougt it would be a great Idea. They came out great and they were so worth the expense.

Re: E-PICS PURPOSE??
honestly - we used ours just for ourselves. We didn't use them as table numbers or anything.
Think honestly, how many PRO quality pictures do you have of you & FH? Personally - we had NONE. The ONLY pics of us we had of our 6 years together were the ones where he sticks his arm out and takes our faces....and other random things.
It was just nice to have grown up, pro photos done ya know?
On the photography side though - it does give you a chance to know your photographer - how well you all work together. It gives the photographer an idea of what type of couple you are, laid back, very fancy, etc.
