That is one HELL of a story! Any idea why the scheduled photog didn't show? For what you had to work with and the very little time you had to put it together, you did an outstanding job. I applaud you!

VERY well done, Bobby! Even with all of the forces against you, the photos came out beautiful....just shows what true talent you have!
Although your gear that you never use is on my "I really really really want" list :P ....sooo not so much pity from me there! JK! I know how it is when you have what you like, and only use that...everything else is like walking on your hands
Diggin the raw feel here, and lovin' the textures!

The photographer just plain forgot - never put it in the calendar. A photographer's biggest fear! Thanks ;)

DId they try to get there after you got the phone call? Or had they booked somewhere else? If I got a call to say 'where are you!?@" I would have got in the car and gone that instant lol

An honest mistake though..

ok. so I'm used to seeing your way above average work and had no doubt these would be as good as any other wedding you shoot. One thing that grabs me though when looking at your wedding work is the amount of emotion in them, it seems to show so much in all of your work.. it's fantastic to see and very inspiring

I like the postprocessing.
Photos look like old film printouts.

What a fabulous story. I have long admired your work .....but it isnt the work I am commenting on ..it is the humility and compassion you have showed the photographer who caused this....my hats off to you.
cheers Val
