    Who in their right mind as a professional photographer has a camera with only one memory card slot? Or a camera that isn't capable of uploading to the cloud?

    There are s**t ton of photographers (like my father and X more I know irl) that prefer older camera models over modern ones. And whole lot of these cameras have only one card slot and there's hence also no way to back up them via cloud. So yeah might have been this photographer's case too but who knows

    We never got ours because the place shut down months after the wedding. I realize now that pictures and a pricey gown and cake aren't worth remembering as long as you get a good husband. I got screwed there too 🤣

    An ounce of prevention would have been a lot more professional than trying to put out the fire after the fact. Hire a 2nd (and 3rd) shooter.
