“Around 5 pm, food is being served and I was told I cannot stop to eat because I need to be a photographer; in fact, they didn’t save me a spot at any table,” she said.
She was exhausted by then and felt that she definitely should not have agreed to do this, especially considering she was not getting paid a lot.
Another important detail is that she was invited to the wedding as a guest and had RSVP’d, so she was supposed to have food and a table to sit at but she didn’t.
Also, the wedding venue was a veteran’s legion place and there was no air conditioning. It was around 110 degrees in the place that day too.
She deiced to approach the groom and say she needed 20 minutes or so to go out and get something to drink and eat since there wasn’t anywhere for her to even get water in the place.
The groom reprimanded her and said she had to stay there and continue taking photos or she could leave and he would not pay her.
“With the heat, being hungry, being generally annoyed at the circumstances, I asked if he was sure, and he said yes, so I deleted all the photos I took in front of him and took off saying I’m not his photographer anymore,” she continued.
“If I was to be paid $250, honestly at that point I would have paid $250 just for a glass of cold water and somewhere to sit for 5min.”
The bride and groom immediately left for their honeymoon following the wedding and have not been active on social media, but she has noticed their guests posting about where the wedding photos are.
