I do have some "BTS" images, but they are mostly the staff goofing around *in front of* the camera. These would have been on the cards that were handed over to the printing staff. Should I assume that you have those already?

That's fine. Help-Portrait has a watermark/logo that they would like to have added to prints that people sign and agree to share on the HP Site. There will be a few of us set up to do that. We'll just need to move your files to one of…

Thanks Aly. Will you have a laptop for any editing that might be needed? If not no worries.
