One woman has shared what she noticed when she zoomed in on a friend’s wedding photo, the perfect example of friendship—and why you should always be aware of where the cameras are.
Breezi Holt, 28, from Orange County, didn’t expect a wedding photo to turn into a viral moment, but when she shared it on TikTok, people couldn’t get enough of what was captured in the background.
While serving as a bridesmaid at her best friend’s wedding in San Luis Obispo, Holt found herself part of a candid moment when she zoomed in to see her friend sniffing her armpit.
“I zoomed in because I thought it was hilarious,” Holt told Newsweek. “My first initial reaction was that I cannot believe we are in a back of a picture doing this. My best friend Jenna is the one sniffing my armpit,” she laughed.
The video on TikTok gained more than 400,000 views since being shared earlier this week, leaving people in stitches at the snapshot of chaotic girlhood.
“I’m not OK,” the caption said, wile Holt wrote in the on-screen text: “Scrolling through Instagram to find yourself in the back of someone’s beautiful wedding photos.”
Hold told Newsweek: “I think the reaction from TikTok is hilarious and that is my majority of my videos I post are comedy.
“I love posting real, raw content that shows not everyone is picture perfect all the time.”
This isn’t the first time a camera has captured an accidental moment. Earlier this year a man was shocked when a delivery notification revealed an unexpected problem—he was out, but his door was left wide open.
While a couple filmed the moment they got engaged only to accidentally capture something else, the moment their dog got into a chaotic situation in the nearby river rapids.
In the comments, people shared their reactions. Viewer Emily said: “That’s a top tier friend right there.” While Alex sympathized: “I’ve never been caught photogenic once in my life.”
Viewer Molly said: “I love girlhood so much,” while TikToker bmassey32 wrote: “I just laughed out loud.”
“God forbid a girl need a pit check,” joked viewer Alli in the comments.
According to The Knot 2025 Real Weddings Study, which surveyed nearly 17,000 newlyweds who got married last year across the U.S., the average price for a wedding photographer is $2,900. The study found that range for the average wedding photographer cost was $2,649–$3,574. Couples who got married in the Southwest spent the least while those who got married in the Mid-Atlantic spent the most in the U.S.
But despite an increasing desire for picture-perfect wedding moments, Holt’s post proved that sometimes the best memories come from the unexpected moments.
