Our Wedding Photographer Accidentally Sent Me the Wrong Photos from Our Wedding — After Seeing Them, I Filed for Divorce

When Claire opens the wedding photos a month after her magical day, she expects to relive the happiest moments of her life. But the pictures she receives aren’t what she imagined. Strange, unedited shots lead to a devastating discovery, forcing Claire to take drastic action.

My name’s Claire, and a month ago, I had what I thought was the perfect wedding. Picture this: a sun-dappled forest clearing, fairy lights twinkling in the trees, and me walking down an aisle of fallen leaves toward Mark, the man I thought I’d spend forever with.

You look like a dream,” he whispered as I reached him, his green eyes crinkling at the corners.

I beamed back, my heart so full I thought it might burst. “You’re not so bad yourself, handsome.”

Our vows were everything I’d hoped for, heartfelt, tear-jerking, the whole shebang. And there, right next to me, was Rachel, my ride-or-die since kindergarten, dabbing at her eyes and grinning like a loon.

I told you that dress was the one,” she said later, squeezing my arm as we hugged. “You’re glowing, babe.”

The reception was magical. We danced under the stars, clinked glasses with loved ones, and of course, I sneaked kisses with my new husband between courses.

was falling into place just the way it was supposed to. The perfect wedding to start off our perfect life together.

God, I was such an idiot.

Fast forward to last week. I was lounging on the couch, scrolling through my phone, when an email popped up. It was from our wedding photographer, letting us know the photos were ready.

I squealed — actually squealed — and clicked the link faster than you can say “newlywed bliss.”

But as soon as the folder opened, I noticed that something was strange about the photos. The shots were raw, and unedited. They were taken at weird angles too, like someone was hiding behind bushes or peeking around corners.

My stomach did a little flip, but I thought these might be some candid shots or something, and the proper photos were just lower down.

I kept clicking through, frowning more with each image. And then — bam! There it was. A crystal clear shot of Mark, my brand-spanking-new husband, lip-locked with Rachel in a secluded part of the forest.

I couldn’t stop staring at the way his hands were tangled in her hair, or how she had her leg hiked up around his waist.
