To save money on the photography for our wedding, we decided to go with a reduced package. With it, we got just the raw photos for us to edit ourselves but we would have all rights to the photos. At the time, it seemed like a great deal (as it saved us a few hundred dollars) and like it would be easy seeing as Laine and I are both well versed in photo editing software. What we didn't account for was us getting the time to actually getting around to going through the memory cards to sort out the good, the okay and the bad and actually editing the photos.

We got married in July, as some of you might know, but it was only about 3 months ago that we actually got around to looking through the memory cards to find out exactly what we had. Which turns out, wasn't much. Many photos were not the best quality, had someone's mouth open or eyes shut or were of distant family members or their dates. We're also pretty sure a memory card was lost or not given to us at some point as we had almost no pictures of Laine with his groomsmen, either of us getting ready or Laine with his parents. All of which we remember taking but at this point, it's all we can do. I finally got around to sitting down to edit them this week and in the end, we are very pleased with the photos we do have. It was such a special day and we are very grateful to have some nice photos to remember the day.
