What was the feeling like?
What was your next step to fix it?
How did you deal with the emotions?
How to prevent that from happening again?

Hello friends

Welcome back at my post.
I hope you all had a great week.
Today as you can see the title says it all.
Something miserable happened.

As a photo- and videographer, i'm used to do my work. Shoot at location, come at home, take a rest and the first thing after that is to put everything from my SD card to my hdd.

This day after the shoot, I gave my SD card to my fellow photographer.
He would then transfer the files and give it to me.
So he did transfer and give it on a usb to me.

I thought it was fine, untill the next work where he asked if he could format the memory card. So I told him yes, thinking that all the files are on the usb.
So the day after I wanted to transfer the files to my hdd and guess what?
There was a new folder with the name, but there were wrong photos in that folder. The photos were of another event.
I quickly asked him to recover and do all stuff....

but everything was overwritten..........

We were left with no photos of this event.
So after all trials to recover, I just told the client that we lost all the files.

I offered them that I won't charge anything and offered a free photoshoot.
To get some moments i made screen snaps of my sony video cam.
And here are the photos...

Let's take a look.

I hope this thing won't happen to anyone.
The feeling isn't great.
I couldn't sleep for days...

With love,
Prasant Djewan
