In this case, the bride was tagged in her friends facebook images, which means that this appears in the newsfeed of every single one of her friends - presumably a very large % of her wedding guests. If they see that the bride is tagged in these images posted by "ABC-XYZ Photography", what are they likely to think? My assumption is that they would either be impressed or unimpressed with what they see, assume these were produced by the hired-pro, and choose not to send me an enquiry or even bother watching out for more images from this wedding.
There is potential for me to miss out on my 2 queries and 1 booking here... which just annoys me. I realise that the bride may indeed eventually post images once she receives them, but by that stage, the damage may already be done.
