Everyone wants pictures of their big day. A professional photographer will capture your wedding from beginning to end and chances are, these pro photos will be stylized and perfect. However, what about some candid shots taken from your guests' viewpoint?

Renting digital cameras and placing them in the hands of your family and friends is one way to get great shots of everything that's going on from different perspectives. After all, your photographer can't be everywhere at once.

Companies like YouShoot have made a business out of renting cameras specifically for events like weddings. You choose when and where to place the cameras and let your guests do the rest. You can either save them for the reception or you can even put them out earlier and get shots of your ceremony.

This is one-step beyond the disposable camera trend, a way to merge technology with tradition...and capture all those precious moments by the people who love you best.
