Clients Are Unhappy with The Images You’ve Delivered

title=Images Delivered Hi [[ client name ]],

I am so sorry to hear this. I’ve gone back through all the images that I took on the day and unfortunately, this shot must have taken place when I was capturing another moment. I photographed almost [[ xx ]] shots on the day and was extremely focused on making sure to document the day as authentically as possible, and I must simply have taken images elsewhere/ must have been focused on another beautiful moment when this happened.

I fully understand that you are frustrated to find a moment that was very important to you missing.

I’d be very happy to meet with you both again to do a post-scene shoot if that’s something that you would be open to. I understand that this isn’t the same as the moment on the day, but some often find that a post-scene shoot has even more magical results as you can direct the images however you wish.

The most important thing to me is that you are happy with your result, so please do let me know how you’d feel most comfortable moving forwards, and we can resolve this together.

Please accept my apologies again.
