Preparation of photos

When preparing photos for the online album that will accompany the obituary, it is important to choose appropriate and respectful images that will highlight the important moments and memories of the deceased. Here are some steps on how to prepare your photos for an online album:

  1. Choose quality shots: choose high-quality photos that are well lit and clear. Make sure the images are large enough to be seen in the online album.
  2. Choose a variety of shots: include a variety of shots that show different aspects of the deceased’s life, including happy moments, family events, hobbies, travels and other significant events.
  3. Be respectful: avoid selecting images that may be offensive or inappropriately humorous. Instead, choose images that honour the life of the deceased and are respectful of their memory.
  4. Edit your images as needed: if your images need editing, such as cropping, brightening or colour correction, use the appropriate photo editing software to improve them or ask us to do it for you.
  5. Organise the photos: organise the images in a logical order and name them as necessary to help viewers understand the context of each image.
  6. Check if the images are suitable for online publication: before you publish images in an online album, check if they are suitable for public publication and if you have permission to use the images if they were taken elsewhere or are owned by another person. Check whether it is necessary to cover the faces of other people you do not know who are in the recording.

 

When you prepare the photos in this way, they will serve as a wonderful accompaniment to the obituary and help to celebrate the life and memory of the deceased in a respectful and emotional way.

Please provide us with the photos together with the other materials for the website.
