Annoyed with photographer! Help! x-post

So when i picked up my proofs (when they were finally ready) we spoke to the photographer about what we wanted for our thank yous. This is what i had in mind...


and this is what i got instead as a proof of the thank you

Am i missing something??? Does this even look like it was really done by a professional? I think the layout is awkward and the fading is sloppy. Maybe im just being anal. So i asked how much it would cost to do the thank yous DH and i want...their reply $50 to make it plus $2.50 per thank you....yeah okay. After spending how much money on a photographer who missed nearly HALF of my must take list, i have no fun pics with my girls, DH has one with the guys, and like i said literally missed half of the pics. Plus the fact that his pics look nothing like the samples we saw when we booked them. So then i tell the owner forget it ill do my own thank yous and he says okay. So i say well the cost of thank yous was in our contract. He says 'i can refund $50 of your money.' I am so annoyed. They switched who was supposed to shoot our wedding less than 2 weeks before then when i asked if i could meet him prior i was told no, then like i said missed almost half of my must take pics. They gave us the runaround for months as to where our pics are. We are even hiring a different photographer to do day after pics to get shots we wanted on the day of that we didnt get. Please help. Any advice or suggestions would be so appreciated.

I have no suggestions but I am sure other ladies do. If I think about it I am disappointed in my photographer too. I like many of my pictures but I wish I had more or different shots. I just used one wallet picture for the thank you - kept it simple and got it out of the way. i am so sick of wedding stuff by now.

Uuughhh I am so sorry that you are going through that, I have been really frustrated with photos as well.
Question- when do you plan to take your day after pictures? Maybe you can use one of those shots. Another option might be to send the photographey doing the DA pics the template and the pictures that you want done so that you can get exatly what you want.

We're not doing our day after pics until the winter or spring most likely. We were considering doing them in the winter but being we were married in the summer i want a sunny day to go to manhattan. So most likely around May/June. On Thursday im off so im going to sit down and try to put together our thank you. I'll post pics when they are finished. Hopefully they come out good.
