Picture this—a bride on the hunt for a wedding photographer, but with a twist. She offers a mere RM100 for an entire day’s shoot.
Yep, that’s 10 hours of work.
She even throws in a comparison to foreign labor wages, claiming it’s a steal of a deal. This offbeat proposal quickly became the talk of Twitter.
Her pitch was straightforward. Just click away from 8 am to 6:30 pm, and get paid. She insisted that with the camera gear sorted, it was an easy gig.

The story, shared by Hika on Twitter (X/@username), exploded online, amassing over 1400 shares and a flurry of comments in a single day.
Netizens were quick to criticize the offer, highlighting the undervaluing of photography skills.
One of the commenters, playfully suggested that even a 5-year-old could do the job for free.
“Why not get a 5-year-old to do it? They love pressing buttons and it’s free!”
Another user, pointed out the higher costs of even basic gardening services.
The post also sparked a wave of humorous reactions.
This whole episode isn’t just about a wedding photographer’s plight. It’s a nudge to everyone to rethink how we value creative work. After all, there’s more to photography than just clicking a button, right?
