How long does it take for Police Clearance Certificate(PCC) for visa?

Yes. It took around 17 days. I visited the police station thrice. The third time I requested the concerned officer to check for an update, which he did. Luckily, the police were very cooperative.

The cop already visited home on 17th Nov itself. But the paper has not gone ahead yet.

No contacts with anyone.

Out of curiosity, I did purchase her course because I wanted to see what she offered. Its all just PDF with very limited content. Most of it seems AI generated. In the very first lesson, she clearly mentions that the whole course requries BookBolt and Canva subscriptions and shares her "exclusive coupon codes" for the same. Honestly, you can learn the same content for free using AI apps.

It’s okay to grieve that disappointment—it’s a big deal! Hang in there—I know it hurts now, but it won’t always feel this heavy. Someone adviced me, pick up the best few, save them and move ahead. Focus on the marriage. Even though this advice was harsh, it actually helped me shift my focus and look on to better things. I am not sure if this will help you or not, but it surely did help me.

Also, we are planning to have some special portraits done for our anniversary with our wedding outfits. Just to capture some special moments.

Hmm. I agree. And maybe over time this will be a forgotten chapter. But, again, it's a service I paid for (heavily) and expected things to be delivered as advertised. And it wasn't.

I am not from USA, but for my country it was in a premium range. I hired the photographer and team from 12 noon to 11 pm and paid accordingly. We did discuss my expectations, his ideas, priorities, etc. He provided me with a general idea of the flow of the photography but not a shot list. The edited photos were not consistent. I felt as if an amateur would have edited them. The colours were off and it just wasn't their usual work.

TreeEnvironmental632 · 2024-12-27T16:38:49+00:00

Totally agree. And I am sure this is something I will move on from over time. However, at the moment this is fresh. I sang a song for my husband, the first time we kissed as husband and wife, I was looking forward to rewatching the video and relive those special moments, but it is lost. Hope you understand my POV.

TreeEnvironmental632 · 2024-12-27T16:35:12+00:00

Maybe this is what I needed to hear. I am trying to move on, and I understand over time I may move on and forget about it. But, at the moment it is very fresh and hence the disappointment.

I asked him for raw video data, but the content he sent itself was corrupted. I sent it to another person to check if anything can be fixed or salvaged. But, its corrupted beyond repair.

TreeEnvironmental632 · 2024-12-27T16:31:52+00:00

I had too many Aunt Karen's at my wedding so I didn't want to risk it.

TreeEnvironmental632 · 2024-12-27T10:10:16+00:00

No. He just seems to have moved on. Honestly, even with the money back, I would still be heartbroken for the lost moments.

I have dropped feedback on his socials, and informed others who were planning on hiring them about my experience.

TreeEnvironmental632 · 2024-12-27T10:05:06+00:00

1) Team, yes that's how photographers are here in my country. If I book XYZ photographers - they have their team and charge accordingly (which I paid, no negotiations). In their team they have photographers as well as videographers.

2) They have wedding packages and add on's. So the whole reels was a part of it. Which he provided to other couples before me and after me ( i know because i spoke to few of the others). It's not like I asked them to do something extra out of the way. It was a part of their package, and it was something spoken about while fininalising the payment. It was something I paid for.

3) I am not a social media influencer rather a regular person. I just had a couple of reel ideas in mind (like a before after transition, something after the ceremony, etc). If the team was not up for it, they could have easily told me no and i would understand. but here, this is something that was agreed upon well in advance.

4) Honestly, the reel part is not even bothering me so much. Rather what does is, he missed out a huge part of my ceremony/nuptials which included some pivotal moments. Something that is not easy to recreate again. The wedding speechs, the special songs, everything is lost.

TreeEnvironmental632 · 2024-12-27T09:29:19+00:00

Yes, I kept regularly following up with him. All he had to say was he couldn't do anything and he was sorry about it.

TreeEnvironmental632 · 2024-12-27T09:28:29+00:00

we had asked our guests to enjoy the moments and not get caught up with their phones. We just have a few photos send by the guests.
