My wife is still very upset that my sister did not include my wife in any of the wedding photos. Should my wife been included in the wedding photos?

If at the wedding there was a "family" photo and your wife was excluded than I think she has a right to be upset. But it they were pictures of the wedding party and she was not in the wedding than no she should not be upset. Your wife is family though and there should have been at least 1 picture maybe with you two and the happy couple.
Theres nothing you can do about it now. Let her be upset and give her time to cool down. Its too late to do something about it.

She is a part of the family, therefore she should have been included in at least some of the photos. Everyone is family now and your wife needs to grow up and stop worrying about the small stuff. Its over and done with, what good is being upset going to do? She can't magically appear in the photos. Did your wife do something to the bride? Was this done to be mean?

Depends on the photo package the bride and groom bought from the photographer. If it was a budget or limited package, it probably only included basic wedding party group pictures, and ceremony pictures. It sounds like your wife might like a family picture taken. Why not plan an afternoon outing with the whole family and have a great picture taken at a studio.

I'm not sure what the exact details are, but generally the *formal* photos include the couple, their parents, and the wedding party. While it's not that unusual to take additional shots with other family members, it isn't 'standard' practice. Maybe they had a limited budget for formals.
Most weddings I've been to include informal photos by the hired photographer and numerous little disposables they leave sitting around. You'd have to work pretty hard *not* be caught by one of those.

When I first read the question, I thought you meant that you weren't happy with the way your photos turned out and that they were disturbing! LOL Ok, listen, I went through the same thing you are going through. I got married in June. I just told everyone that when I got the album, they could look at it and if they wanted to order some pictures, they could let me know. Then add this part "I am going to get one big order from everyone so that way I can tell each person what they will owe individually and make one payment when I pick them up". Most people assumed they were going to pay for them anyway. Explain to your parents that if the other kids want copies, they are going to have to pay for the extras. Wedding photos are not cheap! And as far as the e-mails go with formatting, tell people that this is the best you can do because you did not initiate the e-mail in the first place! Then tell them to get over it.

Was she in the wedding party? If not then her professional photos may only reflect who was in the wedding that day, and that's not wrong. If you were in the wedding then it may have been nice to take a picture of you with your wife but it was your sister's wedding and not really necessary. Tell your wife to give your sister a break.

Was she a bridesmaid/maid of honor/groomswoman?
If not, then technically no.
As some others have said, if other members of the family who were not in the wedding party were included in photos, then yes she should have been included. But if they were just formal shots of just the wedding party, no.

As a stepparent (after they were grown) that faced this issue.
I was NOT expecting to be in any wedding photos. I was asked to pose in a few with the WHOLE family, I am sure as a curtiousy. Wife of brother.....yes she should have, at least in a few.

Well, if there was a family photo taken, yes your wife should've been in it, she's part of the family (like the brides family with the groom). But, there's nothing that can be done about it now, so your wife kind of needs to get over it.

If any of the other in-laws, then it's understandable how she would feel left out or insulted. She should have been included in some of the photos. I understand if your sister wanted siblings only, but she should have done some pics with husbands, wives, and children also.
