My air conditioning is still broken so it's just me again and I thought I'd get all dressed up in my white cocktail dress to tell you about some reddit stories about bridezillas because we've done wedding parties before we've done the wedding parties but now we're gonna do the bridezillas and see are they the a-hole uh let's dive right in Am I the a-hole for overcharging a potential bridezilla so I can buy myself a dream camera? A friend of a friend reached out to me for a photo video services for her wedding.
Anyone near this industry can smell when clients will be a pain in the butt to work with.

The only direction I've been given is multi-thousand dollar influencer wedding videos and photo shoots clearly done in sunny California with model-level bride, groom, and a team of videographers filming from multiple angles in expensive locations.
Anyways, I've been doing video and photo work for quite a while and have a decent portfolio, but I wouldn't say I'm near the quality of what they sent.

When I gave them the number for two videos, each one minute long and multiple photos of them frolicking, et cetera, they exploded about how over the budget this is.
Am I the a-hole for charging them that much when I don't know for certain they even will be a client from hell?
