5. How will I see the photos after my wedding?
After your wedding all the photos will go through a "quick" edit, meaning they are all properly exposed, cropped and you get the pictures back ASAP. These photos will be uploaded into your own personal gallery found on the clients page. This will be password protected, and the details will only be given to the bride, groom and guests at the wedding. But feel free to pass these details on to whoever you wish. Guests will be able to purchase prints directly off of the private gallery using PayPal.

The pictures in the private gallery will each have their own number. All Gary will need is the list of the numbers and the quantity of the pictures you would like to order.
7. Can my guests purchase pictures?
Yes, guests can purchase pictures on the private gallery. So please feel free to give the log-in details to whoever you know may want to either see the photos, or purchase some for themselves. They can do this directly through Gary to save you from more things to worry about using PayPal.
8. How long after I have chosen will it be before I get my pictures back?
