To refuse to pay some 20% of the total price because you are not satisfied with what the photographer delivered is something I can imagine. But to ask to pay for the full re-shoot is ridiculous irrespectively from the nationality. After all - the 'happy' couple are probably not trained models as most marrying couples are not (that is why some shots simply do not look good).
And let me come back to the commentary (in the linked article) under the first photograph: "Not artistic ...." - I mean - look at the room - you can not really expect miracles there unless you start to clone away all the disturbing elements ...
But the bottom line is - what is going to mark the beginning of their marriage - a happiness of the moment or all that stress and anger from the less than perfect photos and the law-suit instead of honeymoon?

... I don't see a lasting future for that couple, if they're resorting to spending time and energy on this. The divorce is going to be ultra nasty.
LOL
We should start a poll on this:
a) less than 6 month
b) 6 - 12 month
c) less than 5 years
d) until death does them part

Now I remember why I don't shoot weddings...
Me too. Don't shoot anything but corporate / advertising.
Whether the photographer was good or bad the lesson is there are folks out there just waiting for the moment to file a lawsuit. Wedding photographers are easy pickings. Want to be photographers and those doing this on the side should take note.

I know why avoid weddings at all, not just photography-wise ...
