EDIT: Plenty of responses!! I don't need any more assistance! Thanks, everybody -- this is the kind of thing that makes this forum so fabulous!!

My young cousin was married in 2006; the photog has yet to deliver a single photo. (There's no dispute; my cousin is paid up; the photog is simply "sorry for the delay...")

She has asked me for my shots -- taken with an S400 P&S and barely acceptable even as snaps. There are a couple of halfway decent shots that could be salvaged into something fairly nice and perhaps 20 that wouldn't be embarrassingly bad if post-processed. But it's the busy season at work for me and I simply can't look through them, choose the best and do the PP. The big problem, of course, with the S400 (which I usually use only for documents for genealogy research!!) is red eye, and there are a LOT of eyes.

There are a total of 127 shots to be reviewed (all JPG, 2272x1704), with say 20-25 selected and PP'd. She's more interested in shots of the guests than of her and her husband.

Any takers? I can snailmail a CD or upload them to a website where you could download them.

Sorry for the delay???
What does that mean? At this point it's no
longer a delay. Is it a pro photographer?
If he still has the negs, get them from him.
And her money back.

And her money back.We're addressing this, but that's incidental to this question. I still want to see if I can get her these photos.

I'm stuck in Afghanistan for another 4 months. This might give me something to go with my evenings. Can you upload them to a site and I can look at them? What sort of price are you looking at paying and would you want me to do a test image?

If you want to email a test image to me, I will play with that and show you what I got.

Email me an image or two, and I will see what I can do for you.
