Free Publicity for Wedding Photographers

I’ve just started up a free online directory specifically advertising student wedding services. The directory has just gone live and is due to be featured in an article in the York Press later this week. If any of your society’s members photograph weddings they’re welcome to create a listing completely free for as long as they need it. Details of how to create a listing are on http://www.schoolyweds.com but please do feel free to contact me  on admin@schoolywed.com if you have any questions.
