That's if you want to print/buy them. If you just want to view them the pics will appear right on the screen. Don't see the difference, you either have an account at shutterfly or smugmug, the latter of which you pay for, but whatever, you are happy with it, good for you.
Well who doesn't want pictures of their wedding? Contrary to your belief, everything you do is not the best way for everyone else. If I was just making a website of my kid or wanted to give family the ability to purchase my photos.... sure, your suggestion is great... and it works like a charm for my tech stupid sister. When people are paying you to take pictures for them they expect a certain standard and Shutterfly is not it.
I maintain a personal photo site on my own domain, I maintain a portfolio in smugmug, I use free Flickr for exposure and I pay (OMG!) for a modeling/photographer networking site to get more work. I'm sure I'm just wasting money though, right? :roll:
Hu? So you are a professional photographer now? Like I said above, if it works for you, great. However, I'd expect a true professional to have their own site. I just enabled the PhotoWorks plugin in my gallery2, added a few pictures to the shopping cart, then checked out with photoworks, just to test quality, easy, painless and all I paid for was the website I already have and the prints I decided I wanted to print.
