About
a month and a half after my wedding, when I asked my photographer for a
specific picture for my Christmas card, wedding was 11.14.15, she told me she
had terrible news regarding those pictures. She did not call, she did this all
via email. Somehow the sd card, unknowingly to her, did not record a good
quarter of my reception, all the pictures of the bridal party at the reception
before we came into the reception. Roughly 45 minutes of photos. She told me
there was a recall on this card but I can’t find any information on that. She
tried to get them back she claimed, but had reused this card 3 times and it was
reformatted so much the pictures were lost. I had a friend of mine double
check, had she realized before she erased and reused, at least I would have had
a chance.
Now she is holding my wedding
album for ransom so that she can get the sd card back for another wedding! I
told her I thought it was wrong that she would use a damaged sd card. I paid $2,000
for these photos. They were good, but I can't believe she could lose my
pictures and then reuse the card. I just pray that she doesn't cause anyone
else this much heartache. I didn't write a review at first, thinking, I know
she feels so terrible about this. But her holding my album back until she can
gets this broken sd card to shoot summer wedding, was too much. It made my
blood boil and I wanted to let the community know to be aware of this.
In short, I told her I would
have paid extra for a new sd card that was only for me. This might be a
conversation you should have with your photographer.
