I’ve decided that freaking out isn’t going to help anything and although it is fun sometimes to wallow in self pity it’s not something I like doing. So I’ve taken suggestions and gotten in touch with the local college and am waiting for them to get back to me. If not, I’m sure someone else will be willing to take pictures.
Plus, as my mom said in an email this morning,
“GOD will be there and that’s what counts!”
(although I’m not sure if God is a good photographer, I’m willing to extend the benefit of the doubt).
Friends of mine who got married had an interesting concept; they put a disposable camera on every table at the reception. We snapped away merrily and handed them the cameras when it was all over.
They also had an official photog, mind you. But every pair of newlyweds I’ve ever known said that the “official” posing took up half the goddamn day and they were sick of it.
It’s a good thing you got in touch with the local college, because Heidi thought she and I would crash your wedding and be the unofficial official wedding photographers…
and I *did* just get a new digital cam
