AITJ for sending my cousin a standard industry invoice for the 'casual' graphic design work I did for her wedding invitations, after she dismissed my professional portfolio as 'just a cute hobby'?

¿Soy el malo por enviarle a mi prima una factura profesional por el diseño de sus invitaciones de boda, después de que ella dijera que lo mío era «un pasatiempo bonito»?

OP is a professional graphic designer who spent 40+ hours designing wedding invitations for a cousin who kept calling the work a 'cute hobby.' When the cousin publicly dismissed OP's career at a family dinner, OP responded by sending a real industry-rate invoice—and the family exploded.

Tengo 28 años, vivo en Santiago y trabajo como diseñador gráfico independiente desde hace seis años. Mis clientes son agencias de publicidad, editoriales pequeñas y algunas marcas de moda locales. Pago mis cuentas, mi arriendo y hasta pude comprar un auto usado el año pasado.
