I let a week go by trying to figure out what I wanted to do about this whole situation. By Friday, August 20th I knew what I wanted and instead of keeping everything in writing I called them both. At the time I really wanted to have more color wedding photos and I didn't want to deal with this or them anymore. Andy said they would work on them but they had other projects ahead of mine. I felt a little better although he sounded like a total a-hole on the phone to me while I was "sweet as pie." Kill them with kindness was my new tactic. It's hard to yell at someone when they are so nice on the phone.
Chad and I went on our last vacation of the year to Savannah, Georgia and Charleston, South Carolina. It was nice to get away from work and the wedding photo drama. We slept in, ate a years worth of Southern Grits, and saw as many museums, landmarks, and tours we could get in. On our way back home we made a detour to St. Augustine for lunch. While we were sitting there waiting for our food I checked Facebook. Damn Facebook. It is the best thing ever for finding out what everyone is doing and the worst thing ever for finding out what everyone is doing.
Since my wedding in May, Leigh Taylor has shot two weddings at my wedding venue and as I sit there looking at my iPhone and the pictures on her blog I felt a fury I have never felt before. My wedding was flawless expect for my wedding photographer. She ruined my wedding day, my wedding photographs, my wedding budget, my bank account and now she was ruining my lunch.
I'm sick of people treating me like a doormat, using me for information, using me for money, using me for business, using me, using me, using me .... and underestimating me.
