I have lots of photos yet from when XH and I were together - I always had my camera with me .. And for whatever reason, the other members of his family rarely ever did for the longest time.
That being said, I asked xh a few months ago if he wanted them and he said we could split them - but yet, I still have them all. I was cleaning up my scrapbooking area / updating the spaces and came across the photos again (which reminded me I still have them.) I really don't want them but throwing them seems like a waste and I'm sure the families of the kids would appreciate them. I don't know if xh would give them to the families though? What would you do?
Re: Photos after divorce
Agreed. I would just send them to the family members directly.
That's what I would do as well. Maybe include a quick note that you found them and though they would like them.
In fact, I came across a bunch of DH's grandpa and uncles and some others from when we were together when I moved recently and just included them all in with DD's stuff that I sent to his house.
Yeah, we don't talk much (if at all for some of them) but that's okay..
My thought was to just send them out to the families and include a short note just saying I thought they would enjoy having these, happy holidays and take care. Some of the kids are beyond adorable and I do miss them - esp the 2 that were in our wedding.. But it is what it is. Good memories though!
Most of our pictures were digital and on our computer. When we split up, I made him a Shutterfly account and uploaded all of the pictures so he would have access to them.
I have our actual wedding album, but all of the pictures are on Shutterfly as well.
I have our wedding album and the digital disc/copyright from it- he said that because I worked so hard on it that I should keep it..
