A screenshot of a conversation was circulated on social media yesterday. The main content is that a “Hong Kong mother” said that she had received a family photo taken by a photographer in a theme park, and then pointed out that there were many problems with the photo, and the service on the day of the photoshoot was also quite insufficient. In the case, the photographer was asked to “provide my family to take pictures for three hours” as compensation, otherwise “I will send you to the Internet” and “complain about you” to the theme park.

The “Hong Kong mother” who left a message to the photographer mainly has the following 6 points of dissatisfaction:
There are too many people in the background of the family photo, which affects the quality; the photographer should ask an assistant to help block other tourists. There is no forecast weather, the temperature is very high on that day, there is no post-retouching of the skin, no whitening amusement facilities, and no people queuing up, so there is only a “carousel” photo , Owing to the “roller coaster” restaurant, there is no queue for a photographer, and there is no discount for shopping in the park
The “Hong Kong mother” who claimed to be “very disappointed (with the photographer’s service)” immediately proposed a compensation plan, which was “to provide my family with three hours of photography.” She added that she can be responsible for the meal expenses of the photographer and assistant on the day of the “reshoot”, but the photographer and assistant have to buy tickets at their own expense.
Finally, “Hong Kong Mom” stated that if the photographer does not agree to her request, in addition to complaining to the theme park, she will also “put you online” (publish the incident on the Internet), and especially emphasized “You think about it!” , obviously trying to put pressure on photographers by means of “network public trial”.

However, the reaction of netizens was overwhelmingly on the photographer’s side. The comments include: “Babies want to test card series”, “The weather is too hot to help you shoot until the sun goes down?” Some netizens even questioned that the remarks of “Hong Kong mother” may have constituted the crime of intimidation.
