I'm with all the others on this one. At some point in my life I realized
that everyone else in my family was in lots of family, photos, but I
might not exist, based on photo evidence.

They did this at my niece's wedding reception/dinner and it was a great
success. Lots of junk, of course, but a surprising number of keepers of
candids that would never have happened otherwise. Marriage didn't last,
but most of the pics from disposables were of her family and friends, so
they are still valuable. New man, new baby, everything's fine now.
