Expert June 2020

When to reach out again

So long story short my wedding has been postponed but we are still getting married on June 6th. We will have a small gathering of about 25 people and would still like to have professional pictures of the day. My photographer very recently had a baby (April 12th, which is the same day we decided on our new game plan) I wanted to give her a bit of time to settle in before I go bothering her with my problems haha. So on Monday I emailed her just telling her of our new plans and that we would love to have her take our pictures still because we absolutely love her work but if she did not feel comfortable doing so given the world right now and the fact that she has a new born baby to worry about we would totally understand. I haven't heard anything from her in reply to that email.

Now I know its only been two days but A) I've seen her post stuff on Facebook and Instagram in the past two days and B) If she was going to drop out on us because shes not comfortable with the idea, then id like to be on the hunt for a new photographer (because like we have exactly a month haha)


Any thoughts from anyone?? Should I wait till the end of the week to email again? Should i contact her via Instagram, maybe she just missed my email??

    I would contact her through Instagram or wait til the end of the week. Just say exactly as you were going to “If you don’t feel comfortable or if it’s too much just please let me know ASAP
    so that I can find another photographer to capture pictures on our wedding day”😊

    I agree with Morgan, contact her again and ask what the deal is. Do you have a contract and give deposit? If yes, then it’s her job to be professional...baby or not. If not then she can ignore you even though it’s unprofessional. Good luck!

    I’d wait at least a week from the first email to reach out again. She may be discussing with her family what to do since she does have the new baby.
