***Cary Diaz Photography Warning***

Just wanted to let you know of an experience that I recently had! About 6 months ago I did a Mary Kay class at my house and invited some of my friends bc a photographer was doing Mary Kay part time and she needed to have the classes for a certain amount of people. Therefore, in return, she offered a free engagement session at a location of my choice. We discussed several times that I didnt want to take photos until my braces were removed and she always said "Dont worry, we have time; there is no hurry." Since there was no deadline to take the photos, I kept following up with her a couple of times to let her know the status of my braces removal and her response was always the same: "Dont worry, we have time - let me know as soon as they are removed." We did do the Mary Kay class when she wanted because she had a deadline; so the free engagement agreement was through email and text; of course there is not contract involved bc i thought her word was enough. Forward to this past Friday, I contact her to let her know that my braces will be removed in April and she replies back saying "Sorry, but the pictures had to be taken in 2011, I cannot extend it to this year and besides I have no availability." I replied back and explained to this person that we had an agreement between each other and that she NEVER SAID THE PICTURES HAD TO BE DONE IN 2011. If she would have said that, dont you think I would have taken the pictures, even with braces on, since they were free?? This photographer is not an honest person - she used me, my time, and my friends to get points for her Mary Kay job and will not honor her part of the deal - she is definitely not a woman of her word because she does not follow through with what she says. Dont make the same mistake I did of trusting her because she will have no care for anything and screw you over without any delay...Be careful with Cary Diaz Photography friends, she will have no consideration for you. Her word has no value at all so dont believe in her "deals" because she will get what she wants and then just forget about the other part that she was supposed to fulfill. An honest person will follow through with their word without thinking whether it was done 3, 6, or 10 months from now because that is what being an ethical person is all about. Was she able to tell me why she never mentioned that the pictures had to be taken in 2011? NO, she never replied because she has nothing to back her up because she is a liar that can’t keep her word.

    Ditto to what Sparent said. Im sorry it happened, but this really isn't the place to post this. I hope things go better for you in the future.


    Not trying to be rude, but I peeked at your wedding website because I was curious. I'm pretty baffled by your 'Attire' page and what people are and aren't allowed to wear. . .As well as a honeymoon registry poem :-/   *insert puzzled look here*

    But seriously, I would take the full names of your wedding party off your site.  Internet safety and whatnot.

    Posted by yaga13[/QUOTE]

    I actually find the 'Attire' page more insulting. It just rubs me the wrong way. I know how to properly dress myself without being told to wear something that isn't 'too big or too tight'. . .  :-/

    Plus, what if I wear something that's 'black' and still big. Technically it should be 'slimming' right?

    Good thing I'm not invited to her wedding cause all I have are sexy tight white shirts, torn and holy jeans, and flip flops that are too big for me. Even though that would have given me an excuse to shop.

    I am afraid guests will see that and totally f with you...
    "No, this isn't white, this is called eggshell."
    "UGGS weren't on the NO list, so I thought they were fine."
    "Personally I think this robe screams sophistication... it's houndstooth pattern!"
    "You obviously don't know me, because I always wear my Metallica t-shirt when I go to the theater. It's black like you said, and this guitar tie matches."


    And I can't get over the fact that the second to last paragraph in her poem doesn't rhyme, when the rest do.

  • Oh woooowww OP, your wedding website is quite interesting!  If I were a guest, I'd most definitely find your attire section offensive.

  • hahaha after reading all the posts I just had to go to the wedding website I think in attire they meant for you to put something like 

    We are having a beach wedding so casual attire and flip flops are welcome
    or
    Our ceremony and reception are a black tie affair
    NOT state the obvious!!! Like make sure you tuck your shirt in and brush your teeth!

    Also thought it was hilarious that the last paragraph where you talk about the honeymoon registry does not rhyme it read like this to me

    We have enough stuff
    So just give us money
    so we can go on a nice trip
    with our beloved new honey


    haha but wait that rhymed more than yours!

  • I hope no anonymous people RSVP to your wedding through your online RSVP feature.  You do realize that anybody on the internet can RSVP to your weddig now, right?

    How is the "maybe" choice a good option?  Either they're coming, or they're not.

    Entree choices: Chicken or Meat.  I'm confused.  Isn't chicken considered meat?  Aren't those pretty synonymous?

    I also think it's awesome that you post your GM's last names.  It's cool, they probably don't care anything about internet safety.

    I have a lot of requests for music at your reception.  I'll be sending you my input shortly.

    And you really should just delete that entire "Attire" page before any of your guest see it and realize what a controlling psycho you really are.

    Thanks for the link, Leenie! Glad I got to check it out even though I was late to the thread!

    This girl is a tool.

    ETA: Don't forget to be seated at 5:45 because the ceremony starts a 6:00. Again, guests haven't been making it to important events on time for their entire lives. You need to remind them to arrive early enough to find a seat and be ready for the ceremony.

    A mod has the ability to change the title of the OP but now that it has disappeared, a mod won't be able to change it because there is no post to edit.

    Also, even if a mod could change the OP, it does not change the titles of the subsequent replies.
