Bride vs. Friend: The Wedding Photo Drama

Weddings are supposed to be a time of love, joy, and celebration. But sometimes, they can also be a breeding ground for drama, especially when it comes to photos. Our bride (25f) found herself in a sticky situation when a high school friend, who happens to run a struggling photography business, took it upon herself to snap some pictures at the wedding. Little did the bride know, this seemingly innocent act would lead to a friendship-ending confrontation.
