My bf and I won a "free" portrait and yes they did ask us for a $200 holding deposit in case we…read moredecided to ghost the appointment they held for us (made total sense to me but yes I understand is a bit anxiety inducing because $200 for anything at any time is a lot of money). They were super sweet when we requested they make sure to write out for us that we will be receiving the money back after the photoshoot completes. I did get the money back a few days after and was super happy with mostly everything! The only catch is that even though it is advertised as winning a "free" portrait you do actually have to just pay shipping to receive it. So I got back most of the deposit, minus $37. We felt it was worth it but definitely something to keep in mind as it's not an insignificant amount of money! We did ask if we could pick it up instead since we live locally and didn't anticipate spending any money like they had led me to believe when specifying it was completely free but they manufacture the portraits outside of the state so without paying to have it shipped we wouldn't receive it. Definitely docked a star for it out of lack of transparency on just that front but we really are looking forward to it arriving (in 6 months) and loved the experience, the photographers especially made it so fun! Would recommend

The whole team tailors your experience and helps you choose the best image for your portrait. I did not know that creating a portrait could mean so much to me until I visited this studio. My fiancee and I drove an hour and a half to get there, but it was worth it! The portraits truly are pieces of fine art. It was really nice to slow down and enjoy the beautiful moment. Shout out to Samara and Sarah our photographers! They made it fun, easy and comfortable. Shout out to Ben our wonderful art director who helped us get the right image for our portrait and a classy and warm personality! Could not recommend the studio more!

An old friend of mine is really good at taking pictures and I had planned for her to take my daughter's sweet 16 pics. Well I waited until the last minute to ask her if she was free, and it turned out she was going out of town. She had also moved out of the area. On a whim, I happened to read Saleta's post in a Local Fort Worth Group. Her sample pictures were exceptional and I loved the Stockyards setting. It made me so nervous to send money electronically! When I messaged Saleta, she was so quick to respond, she understood my being nervous, and she was so excited to work with us for my daughter's special day. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate Saleta, the quality of her work, and her attention to detail. I can say without a doubt that I was not disappointed and you will not be either!

My wife and I did our family portraits recently and had a wonderful time with Hoang Nguyen of Life…read moreStories By Hoang!  Hoang was on time (even early) for our appointment, and we never felt rushed even though it probably took us a little longer than most couples to warm up to the process. Hoang came up with so many creative ideas for our shoot at Cedar Hill State Park.  You can tell from the photos that we were having a blast!  It felt like we were just hanging out with a friend rather than having a stranger lurking around us. :) He really captured us accurately and in the most flattering way. Before the shoot, Hoang was very responsive to our questions, especially about where/when to shoot (as we all know, DFW weather is rather unpredictable) and what to wear. We couldn't have been happier with the choices he made since the pictures turned out amazing! And the turnaround time was impressive. Everyone LOVES the photos! We would wholeheartedly recommend Life Stories By Hoang for any photography projects. If you take a look at his portfolio, the quality of his work speaks for itself. But even more importantly, we truly enjoyed the process of working with him, both on the day of our shoot and in the weeks leading up to it. We can't wait to work with him again!

She was professional, friendly, and her studio was inviting.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE I…read morewent here this Saturday for a Gender Reveal Ultrasound! Let's just say it went perfectly! I asked them to wrap the results tightly in an envelope and don't let me see.

STAY AWAY! Biggest scam artist I've ever met. You go to her studio and she's all nice and sweet but…read morereally a sneaky lying scam artist. I've been requesting my newborn photos from her for the past 2 years now and she keeps running from me. I've paid in full and still have yet to receive what I'm suppose to from her. DO NOT USE HER unless you'd like to be scammed and have your money stolen. I've contacted my attorney and will come to an end with this if it's the last thing I do. Keep running, but you can't hide for long honey!!!!!! I wouldn't even give this scam artist one star she's lucky I have to, to post this comment. What a joke!? Btw the only reason she has any good reviews is because she texts you randomly asking you to leave a good review on her page in the middle of communicating with you about your pictures but then disappears like the dark knight when you start asking for your final pictures! Smh loser I swear. See ya in court Amanda Dykan :)
