Hello all. I need some suggestions on quick and easy slideshow software to use at a wedding on my laptop. I want to download my first batch of images (prep, formals, and ceremony) to the laptop and launch them in a slideshow that fades from image to image, and (here's the trick) automatically rotates the verticals based on EXIF orientation.

I'm using ACDSee Pro, which is awesome software, as digital image management software. And, in the preferences, it has a selection to automatically rotate JPEGs based on EXIF orientation. However, this function never seems to work. Perhaps it's a bug they need to fix.

I really don't have time at receptions to manually rotate all the verticals, so I need an inexpensive application that does this automatically.

I find that presenting just-shot images at an event really gets people interested in my work and is an excellent marketing tool. It also lets the bride and family see the quality of what I've just done for them and makes them really happy. I have crowds of folks huddling around my laptop sometimes, so much so that taking a projector along might be a future necessity!

An added bonus would be if the software could display my logo in the corner of each image to reinforce my branding. I know that might be a stretch, though.

Does anyone in the group use anything that might work well here? Thanks for your suggestions.
