I had the option to upgrade, but told the employee I scheduled with, a few months before the shoot, that I wouldn't upgrade. I was straight forward with the employee. I was told no worries to come do the shoot. So I scheduled and was excited. Upon arrival, I was hounded to upgrade and mocked for not upgrading. I was told I "would regret" not upgrading to another package and that they had never had anyone not buy a package. Chris, the photgrapher, went from being polite when I was a paying/upgrading customer, to rude and pushy when I adimitly stated that I would not be upgrading my package. I decided to continue becuase I had a $75 deposit that was riding on me staying. So I stayed. The pictures took 15 mins instead of the hour that I was told I won. I was told in email that I would get my money back, abiding by I showed up and did the shoot. At the end, I was informed that I wasn't getting my money back becuase they would never do my shoot on a Saturday. Again being told how out of the norm everything was and that they were going out of their way to accomindate someone who wasn't buying a package. I demanded the return of my money and was told becuase of the email that I had, that stated I would be getting my money back, I would get my money back. The whole experince was awful and I will never come back here again. Brides if you "win a package" don't do it. It's bad sales gimic as prices aren't explained until you arrive and it's a sticker shock. I am not in anyway shape or form saying that their prices are too high. I'm saying that if you don't research costs associated with boudiar sessions or have never considered or thought about doing this, it'll make the experience that much more uncomfortable. I thought this would be something fun and free, considering I'm spending so much on our wedding and was told I won a free session, for my fiancé and instead turned into a shaming fest and battle. Don't come here thinking you won a "free package". The only thing that is free is the shame you feel leaving because you didn't upgrade your package.

Not up to expectations. I went in for a business head shot and specifically stated I did not want…read moreto be overly photoshopped. He said I will simply look like I do on my best day. I got the pictures back and went from my 50s to my 20s - NOT what I wanted. He even removed my mole which is part of me. I don't want to be unrecognizable from my picture when I walk in the room for an interview or speaking engagement. To top it off, I still had time left on my photoshoot when the next customer walked in. She was invited into the same room as I was while posing for my shots, and it made me uncomfortable to have an audience. I will not go to this photographer again. BTW the review incorrectly shows me as San Francisco, CA. I am in Concord, NC. I cannot correct this so I am not sure why it is doing that.

This was in 2013 so hopefully things have changed, but I tried to reach out though the beginning of 2014, so I am not sure if they have.

Of all the professional photos that I have had taken in the past 10 years, never have I not been given the digitals (not expecting them to be free). None of my friends or family have ever not been given digitals either. Trust me, I asked all of them because I felt like I had been taken advantage of. It's 2022 people. Everyone likes to post high res photos to social media and make their own albums. No one wants to post a pixelated image with a giant logo on it. Posting high quality photos or making your own album will not be an option for you if have photos taken here... unless you pay thousands of dollars (not joking) and maybe they will throw in the digitals (what I was told). If you are looking to pay an arm and a leg for paper copies only, this is the place. Also you will have to go back to the studio twice (once to review and another to pick up the photos). The photos are beautiful, and clearly the photographer is talented. IMO a review of their business model and cost of doing business should be a priority for them if they are looking to retain customers.

During the session to view the images you are fully informed of the prices not to mention you are given their undivided attention to create just what you want for your images, your individual taste and home! I have always left with a printed invoice of exactly what I ordered. When you go to IP you do not have to worry about having pictures like everyone else! IP goes above and beyond to satisfy each client! I have called or emailed Karen ideas I have had for my daughters birthday shoot and she exceeded all my wildest dreams! Buddy recently framed a series for us that impressed my husband so much he changed where we were going to put it because he wanted it to be a focal point in our home! I'm blessed beyond measure to have such a wonderful group of people capturing memories for a lifetime!

He used his pre-wedding time to go back & forth between the Bride's and Groom's Rooms for photos. As the Mother of the Bride, Ken and I had a telephone conversation and he told me exactly what he needed ready to photograph as soon as he arrived on the wedding day. Having those items prepared helped him to stay on schedule and get all the pre-wedding pictures taken so that we started the wedding on time. Ken was very accommodating with special requests from both of the Mothers, because we wanted photos taken of our extended family groups. Ken had a prepared list of the extra photos that we wanted, and he methodically went down the list. The great thing was that we never felt rushed by Ken at any point during the entire day. Ken has a calm and friendly demeanor and it showed!! HIRE HIM... he'll do a great job for your wedding or special event too!

I unhesitatingly recommend Ken Thomas Photography! Ken's professionalism before, during, and after…read moreour May 2022 wedding has been exceptional. His attention to detail has been superb, and his talent is evident in our finished products. I'm thrilled with our photos, and I'm so thankful that I found such an accomplished professional for our special day. Way back in 2019, Ken met with me in person at his studio to discuss our expectations and to give me more information about his work. He impressed me as a delightful and extremely professional gentleman, and I liked him immediately. He also, during one of our visits, devised a detailed timeline for the events of our special day. That timeline proved invaluable in calming me on our wedding day and in keeping the festivities on schedule. All was nicely on track with all our wedding businesses, but due to the pandemic, we rescheduled our 2020 wedding. Ken was more than understanding and accommodating as I tried to come up with alternative dates. He was always a pleasure to speak with and even checked in with me from time to time to make sure we were still on schedule. On the day of the wedding, he arrived at our location in Marion County, South Carolina over an hour before the start time on our timeline, just to scope out the private home where our wedding was being held and to get an idea of photo locations. He was friendly and kind with everyone, both during photo sessions and at other times. He was fast and efficient in taking pictures, and his experience as a photographer showed as he quickly arranged us and our families in various great poses. My groom and I are both 60 years old, and he not only tried to make us feel more comfortable in posing - something that could have tried the patience of other folks - but also treated us just as he would a good-looking couple in their 20's. He made us feel special and was completely patient with his elderly bride and groom and our even-older guests. In addition to the posed photographs, he took great candid shots as well as many lovely photos of our outdoor ceremony. Since we didn't have a videographer, it was especially meaningful to me that I have photos of our vows and our walk down the aisle together. I received so many compliments from guests and family members, even before they saw the finished photos. Those in attendance noted that Ken was always available and busy taking photos throughout the evening and that he was unfailingly friendly. And then when they saw the nearly 500 photos - wow! I'm a technophobe, but Ken very patiently helped me with the online viewing of our pictures. He even emailed us a sneak-peek of around a hundred pictures less than a week after our wedding. The prints of all sizes are beautiful (despite the elderly subject matter!), and the lighting and color are perfect in each photo. When my two sons someday marry their girlfriends, I'd love to have Ken as the photographer. Even after all my wordy review, I can't think of a higher compliment than that!

We had the recent opportunity of hiring them to capture my sons graduation party at the Ballantyne County Club. Alan Lux Studios was in constant contact with us leading up to the date; connecting with my wife and I. Ensuring his staff knew what meant most to us and what to be sure to capture. The staff surveyed the location in advance picking and choose where the best light was and angles to capture majestically. Our pictures came out better then the high expectations we set. They were spot on capturing all those key moments. The staff highly professional, very well priced for the service we received. I highly recommended them if you are planning a wedding, Anniversary, or any other event you want covered professionally. We will definitely use them again.
