That wedding photos are the most prized possessions of married couples is a fact and the experience can be stressful for all. For photographers too, and yes, people may tend to be rude to them too. A wedding photographer had a nightmare of a time at a wedding and took to social media to share her ordeal.

The photographer posted about her assignment on Reddit under the username Icy-Reserve6995. She wrote that she cold heartedly deleted a newlywed couple's photos from their big day.

The whole incident was narrated in a post published on Reddit's "Am I The A**hole" forum. The post has 17,000 upvotes and 2,200 comments. Read below:

It is learnt that the photographer, unnamed, agreed to take photos as a favor to the bride and groom. She said that had been working for six hours straight when she made the request for a break, to her horror she was denied so by her employees. "I told the groom I need to take off for 20 min to get something to eat and drink," they said. "He tells me I need to either be a photographer, or leave without pay," she wrote in her Reddit post. 

Annoyed with his behaviour she asked him if he was serious, when he replied in the affirmative she took the drastic step. "... 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 wrote.

Further, she said was going to be paid a flat $250 fee she felt was 'nothing for a 10 hour event'. "I’m not really a photographer, I’m a dog groomer. I take lots of photos of dogs all day to put on my Facebook and Instagram, it’s “my thing',” she explained.

To her surprise, the netizens backed her up saying the groom's attitude was uncalled for.
