The site says that all the photos are posted, but Miles says he's confused about the times and all that. I swear I've gone through every picture on the site and me, Carimail and Mountainpuddles are NOT on there and I distinctly remember waving to the camera guy on the bridge. I did see CindySue, however!! :)
I hope VS never uses this guy again. What a disaster! Do you guys think I should send VS an email letting them know what a mess the site is?
I kind of wonder if it was a couple of Valley Spokesmen taking the pix? I've never seen a pro shooter (like Crazy Photo or Winner Photo) use a site like Shutterfly.
I'd definitely let VS know how you feel.
I'd never heard of him until Pardee last year. It was a disaster. According to him, the "guy" to away his domain. Access was lost for weeks. The full set of photos have hever been loaded. That's why when he was at Pardee and I actually saw the print, I decided to ask how to get a CD. I've never seen such problems with photos for an event.
Okay, I sent VS a note thanking them for all their hard work and letting them know that Miles is very unorganized and unprofessional.
Sheesh. Maybe I wasn't fated to get a picture since I didn't finish!

I haven't found myself on either site, Bikeless bought her print so I know she and Mel are there.
I have a little more patience with Miles than others. He's been in the event photography business forever. I remember him on my very first century (and my first Cinderella). He was cool enough to go through all the photos from my first Cindy and find me (after I emailed him a description of what I was wearing). I'll give him some points for that.
He's fast enough that he gets actual prints on event day -- that's cool!
Yeah, it's taken him some time to adapt to internet technology, but he's a photographer, not a computer-guy.
BTW, lots of event photographers use commercial sites like Shutterfly. There's not a ton of money in the event photo biz, so I can understand using existing technology rather than develop something for yourself.
ps -- I found a photo of me!!! Miles missed our group on the bridge (he just changed cameras), but I found two photos on the descent. Check out photo 45 & 47 in album 4.

Hey Lorri! Great to see your picture! Are you 1552 or the other one?
Edited to say that I've emailed Miles to see if he can perhaps find my picture. It may not have turned out or something, I guess. Hopefully he can find it!!
Ok. I'm blind. I can't find her nor can I find myself. :( Did she mention which roll and which print were us? I just don't see us.Quote:

Ahh, ok. Yeah I found my photo on there and picked it up. I just haven't seen it up on his website.Quote:

Props to Miles for finding my photo (I never could find it online) and I'm buying a CD from him. :)

Heh! Yeah, that picture was probably around mile 8. :)
i love it! thanks for posting
Yep, got my snapshot, got my T-shirt, but does anybody know when the ordered-on-ride-day jerseys will be arriving? Word there was about 4 weeks, but if so then it should'a been here by now. Any news about delays or when we can expect them?
