Life on Prints may take beautiful pictures if you've ever seen their finished product, but they are less than nice to work with. We met with them a few weeks back because we saw their work at St. Clement Church - where we are being married next June. While we knew their prices were higher than most other photographers out there, we thought their work was worth it.
We met with them, liked the work even more when we saw their finished albums and told them we'd like to talk about pricing and moving forward with booking.
They gave us some money off their packages and threw in some freebies like thank you cards and a few hours free since their packages only start at 6 hours of photography unlike most others who offer full-day coverage or at least 10 hours to start.
Then we get the contract via email. My fiance looks at contracts for a living and thought it was very one-sided. It was also much more one-sided than any of the other contracts we've signed for our other vendors including videography, DJ, and wedding coordination.
So we asked some questions - which we thought were very appropriate questions. We even mentioned in the email that we were just looking for clarification and that we looked forward to working with him.
A day later we get an email back with answers to our questions and a note that Life on Prints is no longer available for our date. We honestly felt that just becuase we asked questions of a contract we were signing agreeing to pay over $6400 for services for the most important day in our lives thus far, they decided they didn't want to work with us.
Afterwards, we even called and left a message with Tony Cabrera - the photographer we met with from Life On Prints - that explained our disappointment. I doubt we will get a return a call.
We thought that was incredibly unprofessional. We just wanted other brides to be advised before they get their heart set on working with Life On Prints.
