I'm a member of Wirral weddings on Facebook so I've posted it there too. Sadly a woman on the group has also booked him

Firstly thank you to MSE for allowing me a chance to reply to this vicious and untruthful post. Please let me correct some facts regarding my wedding and portraiture business that will hopefully dispel the above vitriol and discredit the poster.

Regarding weddings, i shot my last one in 2012, two years before this post was started. When this post was made i had been in full time teaching for almost 2 years and had long since moved on from wedding work.

It was my choice to stop shooting weddings following a stroke in Jan 2012. During this period i honored every single wedding contract, did not take a penny from people without fulfilling a shoot, despite being rather ill during that year. My business was always in profit and i didn't owe anyone a penny. I never went "bust". I simply left my studio once the lease expired. And i certainly did not send a letter to anyone with the words "hard luck". I hope this has put the record straight.

I do not know this poster, have to the best of my knowledge never met them and deny 100% everything i have been accused of. Where the anger comes from i genuinely have no idea. To post this sort of thing is cowardly. After all it is very easy to hide behind a wall of words. The fact that i have never been approached personally by this person says it all.

To everyone who has responded to this post, especially stephb1986, all i can say is, you were used and i hope that some form of apology will eventually make its way to me. You should always get both sides of a story before making a judgement.

Finally, to all my hundreds of satisfied clients over the years, thank you for your support.

The truth always prevails.
