"Nigerian wedding vendors, he didn’t die ooo with his price being in the open. We can proceed to admire and look away rather than waste each other’s time with “DM for price”.

He praised the photographer's decision to openly display price, rather than making clients send direct message for rates.

Reactions as man speaks on Temi Otedola's wedding photographer

Nigerians shared their opinions in the comments section.

Rexkins said:

"And let’s be real. Some of them adjust prices depending on who’s asking. If you look “premium,” the price suddenly grows wings. Public price tags remove that flexibility, so they avoid it."

Kostphie said:

"At least someone will be aware of their prices but nah dm for price dem go dey write up and down."

"If i see your product but i no see price, no to dey look front. Make i con dey pursue you for price of your product ??"

StanleyNdu reacted:

"Different markets different style. Transparency is not something that everyone appreciates. I don’t think you have met everybody in the world and that is fine. Hope you never do."

Stan said:

"I feel like you people are misunderstanding my point. “Everyone that photographed knows his base fee is $50k, Nigerians would assume that’s the highest you can charge and even say that’s too expensive and then bring a $600k budget service and say you should do it $50k.”

Ktipss reacted:

"There are people against transparency? And tomorrow you will call out government if they inflate budget! I hope you don't support perter obi because this your comment is very foolish and lacks common sense."

Hyque added:

"I don’t like sending DMs for price. Just put your price on your page or wherever you post your stuff. If I can pay or want to negotiate, I send you a message. Otherwise, I look and pass. I don’t want the awkwardness that comes with price inquiry."
