The photographer gets into hot water when he finds out after the wedding that nothing was captured by his camera during the event, which he was paid to cover.
Oluwanishola Akeju, a netizen, posted about the incident on Facebook after hearing about it from a friend.
He claims that N450K was paid to the photographer to capture the wedding.
He had shown up at the location on the day of the ceremony, going about his business and providing coverage of the event.
Unfortunately, he found out after the wedding that he had forgotten to hit the “record” button, which greatly infuriated the couple.
It was gathered that the couple got him arrested, and requested that he refund them their cash.
“I apologize to this person for sharing his experience here but I think I want others too to learn.
So this guy sent me a message. A photographer. He was paid to cover for a wedding. He went to the wedding. And was everywhere covering. Wedding ended, then he checked his camera only to see that he never pressed the record button.
The couples had arrested him and has been given the ultimatum of Wednesday to refund them. So he approached me to lend him the sum of N450,000.
I have told him I don’t have that kind of money to borrow him.
I gave him what I can afford as gift.
Photographers in the house, have you experienced this before? Or have a photographer done this to you before?,” the Oluwanishola Akeju wrote.

Francis Tansi Okoye said: “I’m a photographer. It’s very possible. Just last week at an event my other colleague thought he was recording only to realize he didn’t press the record button. Luckily he realized early. Buh how possible he wasn’t able to record any clips. Because videos are recorded clips by clips.”
Samuel Dosunmu said: “It is possible he misses some moments in the event but not covering anything at all is greatest fallacy of all time, it can never happen unless he is under a spell from village people.”
Joy Oha said: “He didn’t pause at any moment? He didn’t stop at any moment? The entire thing was lost? He never wan talk true.”

Joy Shodunke said: “Hmmmmm this matter long oo Oluwanishola Akeju . Do you know that till date I do not have wedding pictures or my wedding video? The only pics I could get was from a neighbor (photographer) who my mum paid to snap for her on that day. After 12 years. No money no pics….. So it’s possible.”
