Wow! I can't believe that! What I am more surprised is that he was able to get away with it 88 times. I photograph weddings and could never imagine doing that to any of my customers! Wow!
"A wedding only happens one day in your life, and he stole that day from us," said victim Tara Morgan, just one of 88 people who were ripped off.

The divorce rate in America for first marriage, vs second or third marriage
50% percent of first marriages, 67% of second and 74% of third marriages end in divorce, according to Jennifer Baker of the Forest Institute of Professional Psychology in Springfield, Missouri.”
He is an idiot and deserves more jail time but looking on the bright side there is a really good chance she'll get to try it again!
$250,000/88 = $2,840 per customer average too, so he must have been getting pretty big deposits. The Barney Madof of wedding photographers. Amazing that he kept the scheme going that long.
I take exception to the articale referring to him as a " Former Wedding Photographer". He's actually a former con artist who ran a wedding photography scam.
