Isso eu acho que eu não precisava ouvir nesse momento.

Sabe aquelas fotografias que sua tia decide tirar a cada churrasco ou festa em família? Tenha certeza de que elas não são tão ruins quanto as que os fotógrafos Ian McCloskey e Nikki Carter venderam para o casal Thomas e Anneka Geary. Os “profissionais” cobraram 750 libras (2.270 reais) para capturar os momentos mais felizes do casamento dos Geary, mas o resultado não foi – nem de perto – o esperado. As imagens são distorcidas, desfocadas e, na grande maioria das ocasiões, não mostram o que há de principal no evento: a felicidade do casal. Segundo o Telegraph, os fotógrafos fecharam o negócio e estão tentando vender os equipamentos para reembolsar o casal que foi enganado.

Thomas and Anneka Geary paid professional photographers Ian McCloskey and Nikki Carter of Westgate Photography £750 to cover what should have been the best day of their lives. But they were stunned when the pictures arrived and they were out of focus and dreadfully composed.

Retail advisor Lucy, 27, said: 'It was an utter shambles. Just about every shot was wrong - there were pictures of the back of people's heads and blurred images of me and Tom.'

'Even the pictures of us walking into the reception are blurred and all you can see in most are the back of people's heads. '

'In another picture the photographers took us outside for a picture with the hotel in the background but we were out of focus and we were miles apart from each other.'

Tom, 32, a firefighter for Warwickshire Fire Service, said: 'We received a CD from the wedding photographers but at first we thought it was a joke. Just about all of the pictures were out of focus or badly lit or just plain weird. '

Tom says: 'All we wanted was one picture to put in a frame of our wedding day but there is not a single one we can use.:

The pictures of the evening do, which hosted 120 guests, were  taken without flash because one of the photographers complained about being epileptic.

The couple got married at Dunchurch Park Hotel near Rugby, on August 14 last year. They forked out £14,000 on the wedding ceremony and a reception for 120 guests. But their big day was ruined when they received the wedding photographs a month later.

The couple, from Warwick, demanded a full refund for the 'nightmare' wedding album but received less than half after the firm, Westgate Photography, went bust.

'When we first met the photographers they said they were engaged - I just hope their own wedding photographer does a better job than they did for us,' says Tom.

Wedding photographer Ian McCloskey said the firm had gone bust and he and fiancee Nikki had been forced to sell their cameras to pay off a string of disgruntled customers. He admitted the pictures of Tom and Anneka's wedding were 'pretty awful'.
