Consider this just a sneak peek into Susan and Scott’s wedding day. The ceremony took place at the gorgeous Grace-St. Luke’s in Memphis, and I’m super excited to share more with you very soon!
My previous ‘Roid Week bonus day blog was filled with photos which I found to be more misses than hits. This bonus day post is made up of photos which I actually liked but never bothered scanning in. Mostly, they were taken last year during a time when I had a lot going on and spent most of my photo-related computer time editing wedding photos. And as scanning prints is not a favorite task of mine, these pictures never made it into digital form so I could post them online. I’m trying to right that wrong today, by giving them their own bonus day ‘Roid Week 2013 blog!

I feel as if I have a clean slate after I’ve gotten my backlog of instant photos posted online during ‘Roid Week 2013! Yay!
When I decided that ‘Roid Week 2013 was the ideal opportunity share my backlog of instant photos, I tried to be selective about the photos I’d showcase. Some of them were tossed aside because the focus/exposure wasn’t right, others simply didn’t “do it” for me. But I’ve found that sometimes when I’m not crazy about a particular photo, it is still worth sharing because someone else might find the photo to be of some interest. Meaning some photos that make me say “meh!” may make someone else say “yeah!” In that spirit here are the photos that didn’t make the cut for my ‘Roid Week 2013 selections:
“Instant photos of my niece, some more successful than others” • Polaroid 250 • Fuji FP-100C
“My brother’s pit bull, Nala, lounging on the porch” • Polaroid 250 Fuji FP-100C
“My fave shoes, but this photo makes my lap look voluminous” • Polaroid 250 • Fuji FP-100C
“Failed attempt to photograph a beautiful, giant bowl of cream cheese icing”
Minolta Instant Pro close-up lens • PZ 680 Color Protection
“Blue Ribbon on the Post Office door” • Polaroid 250 Fuji FP-100C
“Summer Refreshment” • Polaroid Spectra 1200si • Close-up lens • PZ 680 Color Protection
