A cautionary tale of wedding photography disappointment (and how this photographer can help!)
“Is it really so hard to get everything you want?” she asked. My heart sank. A Facebook friend had gotten in touch because she needed help. Her wedding photographer had, in her words, “dropped the ball.” She had finally gotten her wedding photos back after months and months of waiting, and… let’s put it this way, she wasn’t crying tears of joy. Important shots were missing. The lake that was what first made her and her then-fiance fall in love with (and ultimately book) their venue was not in any of her photos. Here’s how to avoid that on your wedding day…
