Thanks, Jack.

I'll have a sit-down with her and see if I can steer the conversation in that direction. It's just a little difficult to find a good segue, but I'll figure it out.

Thanks again.

Subject: Unusual wedding photo quandary

Hi y'all,

I've photographed two weddings over the past two weekends for friends of
mine, which is keeping me pretty busy -- but I digress.

The first wedding I did involved a young lady who had to have her arm
amputated below the elbow. She's not at all self-conscious about it, but
I can't help feeling like I ought to crop strategically on the images
where the amputation might be distracting to others who might view the
photos. But, at the same time, I'm not sure how she would feel about it
-- that she might take it as a comment on her appearance that I'd
intentionally try to hide the amputation.

Given all the experience on this list, I can't imagine I'm the first
person to encounter something along those lines. So, I figured I'd ask
you guys what the best practice is in such situations.

I'd appreciate any advice anyone might have.

Thanks!

-- Walt
