I'm trying to synchronize the data (photographs, e-mails, files )
A lot of that can be done using iCloud. See this web page for details. Note that both computers would need to be running Mac OS X 10.7 Lion in order for this to work.
At the moment this is more promise than reality
Thanks, I know this is possible with iCoud but was hoping there was a solution other than that
You might consider dropbox. It's probably the most convenient way if you don't mind putting files out into the cloud. Another possible solution is using a file syncing program such as ChronoSync.
ChronoSync can certainly sync the various items of your home folder between your two Macs using a standard file sharing connection via WiFi.
Take a look at the link below that details how to go about syncing the various items of your home folder using ChronoSync:

There are also screencasts that detail how to setup this sort of sync:
