Sorry for the long title and long message. We got our engagement pictures taken in July, got them back in August, and I love probably half of them. I love the photographer and chose her based on the work that she showed online/social media, even going above our budget to get her. When we first got the photos back, I noticed a good deal of them were out of focus in weird places (ie only showing my face or my fiancé’s face, or blurring out both our faces and focusing on the background or a piece of our clothing) but tried to brush it off. Well I can’t really ignore the disappointment anymore and feel I need to say something. I asked a mutual friend who also used this photographer for her engagements/wedding and she said she noticed it too but though it was just a fluke.
I don’t know if this is just her editing style (that she doesn’t show online) or if she was just having a bad day, or what...but how do I go about bringing this up in conversation with her before my wedding? I know if half my wedding photos turn out like the engagement duds, I won’t be able to forgive myself for not saying anything. Gah I don’t know what to do! I know it’s not a skill-level issue, I’m just confused why it would be an intentional style technique.
