So sad...

we just got the pro pics back...and the photographer didn't take any of the wedding ceremony--he did get me coming down the stairs and the kiss...but he missed everything else.  The only way that he hit the minimum number of photos required under the contract was to give us 5 pictures of the food.  Grr!  We are wondering if he had a bigger problem with shooting a same-sex marriage than he admitted.  :(

Re: So sad...

  • That's a HUGE bummer, I'm sooo sorry. Maybe he gave you only the ones that he thought were best, and the ones he edited. Double check w/ him that you are getting ALL of the photos, it's possible that he has many more that he didnt' edit or give back to you.

    I would also ask him why he doesn't have very many of the ceremony? Asking never hurt.

    But I am sooo sorry about this, for our wedding we didn't hire a professional photographer for the day, and it is my biggest regret, so I can relate to you not having photos.

  • Oh, no! PP was right, check to see if he has any, even if they aren't perfect and ask why not if he doesn't.

    I hated all of our pics and refuse to have more than 1 or 2 out. I always feel like we missed out. It's disappointing. I am sorry a big part of your day is missing.

  • We have asked and he says that we have everything...  :(  We are getting everything that we can from friends and hoping that we can piece some of it together that way.
  • Oh no! I know how it feels to be disppointed by your wedding pics - our photog never told me I was holding my bouquet too high, completely blocking the detail on my dress in all of our posed pics; all of our formal photos with family are a disaster - half of our families are completely in shadow; I don't have a picture of just me and my dad; and to top it off, we don't have even one picture of our first dance that isn't blurry.  Unfortunately, there was nothing we could do, because our photog was a relative who did it for free.

    But in your case, I would express how unhappy you are - I mean, you should have a TON of photos of the ceremony! That's unacceptable! - and get some of your money back.  You only have one wedding - you trusted this photog to do his job, and he didn't.

    I hope you get some good shots from family and friends!

  • I agree with pp's.  Did you contract state specific photos that you wanted?  If so, and the ceremony was included you might be able to at least get some of your $ back.

  • I'm sorry :( Agree w/ PPs....hopefully you can work soemthing out.

    Our pics aren't fab, but they were pretty cheap, so such is life.
