<p>You won't always be a newbie</p>

<p>Have you thought about informing the MOB that all requests for editing must be made in writing, dated and signed? This way you have a written record of her demands, with prints as to the difference the editing makes and will so be able to end the contract for "unreasonable behaviour"? Or something similar?<br>

Alternatively, ask the groom if he would like his mother to view the prints and show copies of your choice of edit..and MOB's choice of edit..no matter how timid a bride may be with her mother, surely she wants to look nothing less than perfect in her wedding album? MIL to be my also provide some needed back up!<br>

Also, who is actually paying? If all 3 signed, then who is paying the bill?</p>

<p>I was asked some years ago if i wanted to buy a camera from some local lads because they knew I bought and sold cameras~ they were told not interested. So they asked where they could sell this camera so I sent them to my local Jessops where if you are an honest seller( like most photographers) you have no problem. However, if you want cash, then no matter what the camera is worth they will only pay £60.00 cash over the counter and if you want the full value you are offered a cheque and have to wait Seven days and you leave the camera with them .So these lads sent one of their girlfriend in to sell the camera and when offered only £60.00 pounds cash ( as she was, as instructed, asking for cash there and then) she insisted that she wanted the value of the camera and wanted the cash over the counter but was told no only if you will except a cheque. By this time she was getting nervous and realised she was stood in front of a CCTV camera. What she hadn't realised was that stood next to her was an off duty copper who then followed her to her mates who were all arrested on suspicion or handling stolen goods. The result was that the owner got his camera back and that made my day! I smiled everytime I saw the prat's~ I am sorry for the loss of your kit mate.</p>
