ubiquitous brides

[goldenstar]

I don''t know if this is a vent or what...

I''ve been surfing the ''net for various local wedding services and I swear there are a few brides that I see EVERYWHERE. For example, I saw a wedding on a sample DVD sent by a wedding videographer. Later I see that same bride on a makeup artist''s site, photographer''s site, and wedding planner''s site. I found all these vendors randomly by doing searches and following links. There have been other brides I''ve recognized.

I just thought it was weird for some reason. I know every vendor these people had because I''ve seen their weddings plastered all over the place.

Are they all pretty people? Might be a common theme..haha. Have you ever noticed that photographers tend to use the pretty people on their sites? I have anyway. I guess it does make sense.

lol this made me laugh. the only thing that comes to my mind is maybe they were on a tight budget and cut deals with all their vendors. a lower price and permission to use their pictures for advertising and promotion??

Hey I hadn''t thought of that! That could totally be the case.

hmmm... yes they were pretty brides. I don''t know about the advertising. It seems that there are so many people who would be willing to let their pics be used for free. A vendor could take their pick without paying anyone. Oh well...
I just felt like posting because I saw a familiar face on a website and I thought "ick". It just seems so attention seeking.
