Bride vs Photographer on Judge Judy

I've only seen maybe 4-5 episodes of JJ, but I happened to be flipping past it and caught the beginning of an episode with a bride/photographer. The bride and her Mom were suing the photographer because they were unhappy with 3 things: the person who shot the engagement shots (the photographers Mom, it was in the contract though that 1 of 3 workers could shoot it), the location of the engagement photos (the Mom said it was a cemetery, photographer said it's a monument in the background, not headstones), and the fact that the bride was squinting in some of the shots. The bride was mad that the photographer didn't take out the bad shots.

I think the bride and her Mom were being ridiculous. A majority of the shots were really nice. I think the bride was expecting every shot to be perfect. Judge Judy is a wacko, but she was yelling at the bride and her Mom for trying to get out of paying for a service that was done properly.

Just curious as to what you thought of this. Smiley smile

    So I have to confess that we "fired" our first photographer because of our awful engagement pictures. Out of only 30 shots that were actually taken, 5 looked good. She didn't listen to anything we said and pay attention to who we are, so all the pictures just looked awkward, not what I want to happen with my wedding shots, so we fired her and she said since it didn't work out she was going to give us half of our deposit back if she booked another wedding that day (which was very nice). Well in order for us to find out if she booked the day or not, my dad called, acting as an interested client, the other day asking if that weekend was available and she said no, so a day later dad emailed her about the money. I am not a bridezilla by any means, but the pictures are the most important part to me. I want to be able to show everyone in the future of our wonderful day and I don't want to just have 5 photos to show.

    I completely understand it's important to have a Photographer who actually takes good shots and you can trust. While I wouldn't say the Photographer in the show was a "top" photographer, her quality was not bad to where they should get their money back. Really, her shots were pretty good. The Photographer even said she would have Photoshopped the stuff she didn't like (like the monument) had they chosen their pictures.
