Couple Uses Their Popularity To Ruin Wedding Photographer’s Image For $125 And Gets Caught Up In Legal Trouble

By Mark Jacob

Making Efforts

Andrea explained, “In fact, over two weeks ago we emailed the bride and stated our willingness to release to them their images prior to having a completed album. Then last week, we also offered to assume the cost of the album cover before the mention of a news interview ever occurred.”

Making An Exception

Andrea further said, “Although the contract provides when the images were to be delivered, we attempted to make concessions to keep the bride satisfied.” She tried it all but nothing seemed to convince the bride who was misusing the power of her social popularity to ruin a hard-working lady’s life.

An Open Letter

In the middle of this chaos, Andrea wrote an open letter in which she said: “Thousands of people that I have never met and have never worked with have gone to great lengths on social media to disparage my name and my businesses.”

Negative Judgement

She further added: “The most disgraceful review of them all occurred on Yelp: someone stated, “She gave me AIDS. Photos were okay. 2 stars.” The worst and most humiliating part was that the bride’s husband “liked” the comment.”

Calling Her A Cheat

Andrea was stunned at one point and she explained it as: “On a different social media site, the groom also called me a cheater and a scammer, and someone who “steals” money from her clients. Nothing could be further from the truth. Hundreds of people followed this comment and posted the same words on a variety of other websites, including my business Facebook page, which I temporarily had to shut down.”
