Bad wedding photos

So I just got my wedding album the other day and to say I'm disappointed is an understatement. First of all the first eight pages the photographer did was the groom n groomsmen only. Then he only included like 4 of me and my bridesmaids but most of those shots were terrible. He didn't get a pic of me going down the aisle, he didn't get a pic of my flower girls, he didn't include one of the couples in the wedding party going down the aisle, he didn't get any pics of my mother at all,

As well as so many other moments he either didn't capture or didn't include in album. Now in his defense I was 30 mins late getting to church but that don't account for why I don't have all those important shots during and after the ceremony. If it wasn't for my guests taking pics I wouldn't have any pics at all of me coming into church. His whole focus was on the groom. I understand before the ceremony, but what about after I got there? Continued in the comments.

    With my photographer he was nice but not good at his job, although his camera had crystal clear pics. I would've preferred a rude photographer who got all the shots than a nice one who missed everything.

    When I asked him about pics of me coming into the church going down the aisle he said he didn't have the pic because he was at the front of the church with the groom. Like really dude, you miss me coming into the church so you can get a close up of the grooms men's feet? That was really a picture. Smh.

    So I figured out how to leave a comment on the site for this vendor. I rated him honestly but his rating is still 4.7. Hopefully future brides actually read my comment otherwise they will experience the disappointment and pain that I did with him.

    We were very disappointed in our wedding photos. We had a great videographer. We took the cd from him and selected pictures from the cd and printed them on photo paper. We have an amazine photo album with very personalized photos.

    My video isn't clear enough for still shots. However my family and friends been sending me pics from that day so I have a few good ones to choose from to make my own wedding album. However no one seem to have got any pictures of the flower girls at the wedding, just at the reception. Which is more than I can say for the photographer.

    The stars are not foolproof; there is something going on with them being recorded correctly; several of my colleagues have mentioned that. It's far better to rely on the narratives.

    Sorry you're not happy with your pictures. It's too bad it didn't turn out the way you wanted. Maybe a few years from now take some nice family photos with a different photographer

    Was your photographer expensive or on the lower end of the spectrum for your area?
