The photographer was a friend of the couple, and was a DOG GROOMER who just happened to sometimes take pics of his clients to show his work. The couple asked if he'd be willing to be their wedding photographer (instead of just a guest) for $250 because they were on a "shoestring budget", and he agreed because they said they didn't need them to be professional.

Fast forward to the wedding day, he's been there since the early morning taking pics of the bride getting ready, only to find that when it comes to the meal, they've REMOVED HIM FROM THE GUEST LIST. Meaning he has nowhere to sit, nothing to eat or drink, and the couple says he's not allowed to go and get food or water because he needs to be taking pictures during the meal.

He says that's bullshit. Groom says to keep doing the job they asked him to do, or leave without pay. He leaves, because he's not about to let himself do a full day without water, and deletes the pictures since they're not paying him.

Yea, seems a bit silly they didn't just have food and water. I mean get a veggie platter or some shit or since you're clearly on a budget, have people treat it like a potluck and bring their own shit.

I give the couple about 1 year and 3 months.
With any luck they keep the chain going by having a kid who gets to watch its parents arguing before the breakup.

That whole situation is beyond toxic.

They were ingrates by treating him that way after he was going to do the job for them at a big discount to help them out.

Just goes to show that this friendship was one-sided and they only wanted to take advantage of him. Good for him for not standing for it.

No, he shouldn't. He did his job, they refused to even acknowledge him further, so he took it on himself to decide what to do with the photos he took. They paid him to take the photos, clearly they didn't have a contract stating what he should do with them.

There is clearly nothing to return. He hadn't been paid yet.

Adjusting for inflation, I paid triple what they did for my photographer, and that was just for 2 hours at most and then a digital catalogue.

Dude was their friend and cutting them an absolute fucking bargain, and they expected him to work all day and not even feed him or invite him to the dinner like he's their friend?
Seriously fuck them, I'm glad he did what he did. And from the topic title I came in expecting he was going to be in the wrong.

Looks like he was never paid to begin with, that they were only going to pay him afterwards. And there's probably a reason why they were saying they were okay with the photos not being professional... after all was said and done, they probably intended to take the pictures from him and only pay him a fraction of what they agreed to by claiming the pictures were horrible.

It's the kind of scamming you see all the time on court shows that are about weddings.

I mean, there is the thing where you can spam pics of your cute kids to get people to overlook your flaws, that is a huge payoff.

So, I suppose both points should be considered.

Yeah, given how horribly they were treating him, it wouldn't surprise me at all if they were planning to pull something like that. Some "friends" they were.
