And in her defense, she has been going through a divorce...but still, that is not an excuse. Yeah, I'm totally compassionate when it comes to personal issues but in the end.....business is business and one business you don't mess with is a bride's business. :-( I'm hoping she turns things around for you. I've been more of a nervous wreck than usual, so I think I'll just keep searching. I was pulling for a US photog now more than ever since I see how accomodating they are. Most of their packages include 2 hrs the day before, the day of (8-12 hrs), and a TTD the following day. I haven't seen any Mexico based photogs offer anything remotely close yet. Big business in every country, I guess! :-)
