What blushing bride? Judging by that pic, it’s more like drunken groom in wifey’s wedding gown.
Also, the fact that she sued didn’t help her anonymity any. All that lawsuit did was bring even more attention to that wedding card. If she loses, it’ll be even worse.
Very well, off to make a Priceless-type parody of that pic in Photoshop and circulate it on Kazaa Lite. (Just kidding…or am I? BUAHAHAHAHAhaha!!!)
Of course, she could just be short on cash (for booze and cigs), and looking for some easy money. I get the impression from the photograph that she’s not the type who really cares what other people think of her drinkin’ and smokin’.
That’s a lot to infer from one captured Kodak moment of her life. I certainly would not want the sum total of my existance judged by some long-ago snapshot.
That’s an amazing unsympathetic view. Unless you yourself have somehow managed to float through life without every having an unphotogenic moment.
I think that a bride at her wedding has a reasonable expectation that anyone taking pictures will be well-intentioned towards her and will not be planning on using them for commercial intent. You may even be able to go further than that and make an argument that because weddings are typically an invitation-only affair, the bride has a stronger expectation of privacy than normal. This is why I’m puzzled by the role of the photographer – the article indicated that he was covering a news story. But it would take some major chutzpah to attend a wedding reception and take pictures if you weren’t invited or an official photographer.
It’s funny. When I first saw the title of this thread I thought of one of my mom’s wedding pictures. She’s stunning, young and vibrant, comically holding a cigar to her mouth and holding a beer in the other. She’s obviously posing for the photographer and it captures what I think is her having a blast on one of the happiest days of her life. It’s easily one of my favorite pictures of her.
I look at this woman’s picture and think “yikes!” I can’t say I blame her. I’ve never seen anyone look so miserable on their wedding day.
