Molly Bullard is super nice, but super expensive. I went to see her about scanning two of my…read moregrandmother's photo albums from the 1900's. To scan just one book of 285 pictures it would have cost $994!!! Each picture (even though you scanned each page) was $3.75/each. Here is her project description from the invoice estimate she did for me: Project Description: - Prepare book for scanning by removing gently removing string - Scan each individual page at 300dpi - Maintain order of book by using filename convention: BOOK NAME_ALBUM_pg 1, 2... - For pages, enhance black background and sharpen images - Crop each individual photo from book, color enhance and sharpen - Maintain order of book by using filename convention: BOOK NAME_INDIV_pic 1, 2... - Provide client with digital files on cd flash drive - Return original materials and any loose materials in acid-free sleeves - Cost: 285 (+/- 10) total pictures @ $3.75/ea - $994 Since I thought this was outrageous, I called another company and its ovner agreed that it was way overpriced. He said he would charge me $300 to do the same for both my albums, not just one. Ultimately, I decided to scan the pictures myself at 600 dpi, bought Photoshop Elements for $70, and cropped everything myself. $70 is a lot more reasonable than $1000. It took me 8 hours to scan BOTH albums. The cropping takes the longest. I am almost done with all the photos and have spent ~15 hours cropping and editing. After I told Molly her work was out of my price range, she was really nice about it. She told me that if I had any questions doing it on my own, I could give her a call. She also hand delivered the album she evaluated to me at work. Once again, she is a really nice. If price wasn't an issue, I think she would be a good person to work with.

I don't know what the other reviewers are talking about when they say she was too expensive. I was…read morelooking to get pictures scanned so I would have them available more easily online. I looked all over the internet at the different companies where you send a box of photos in. I instead wanted to find someone local so I wouldn't have to worry about my pictures getting lost in the mail. Molly did an amazing job with all the pictures I gave her and her prices were extremely reasonable. As a reference I got a couple of quotes from photo shops around Seattle and they literally charged an arm and a leg and were on average 4-5 times more expensive than what Molly quoted me at. I initially gave her a small batch because I wanted to see how good the scans turned out and once I saw how great they were I had her do about 200 more for me. Her turn around time on everything was really great as well. Will definitely recommend her to anyone and will use her in the future again.

I met Keith through a small business networking group, and I was in need of a videographer's help…read morewith a weird project so I gave him a call. I was very impressed with his professionalism and assistance, as well as with the time he took to discuss my custom situation. He was happy to help with my task--I didn't actually want to hire a live videographer, I just wanted to pay someone to show me exactly how to create a terrific setup in my home office with tripods and mics and a lighting kit. Not only was Keith game to help, but he gave me loads of free advice on the phone and he was willing to charge a very reasonable rate to come on site and show me how to do everything myself, so I could set things up for a great shot each time I recorded. Plus, he gave me equipment tips and was willing to vet my purchases before I spent loads of money on the wrong A/V equipment. After all that, one of my clients offered to barter her videography for my online dating coaching, so I didn't end up needing to hire Keith. Honestly, I was kind of bummed! He seemed so cool to work with, and he was just so prompt and on top of things, too. As a small business owner, I often find that it's difficult to wrangle creative types and get timely responses, so it was extra impressive to me that Keith was more organized about my project than I was. :) I would definitely hire him again in a heartbeat if I hadn't found a free videographer, and I'll recommend him to anyone looking for videography help, of any type!

We do not recommend hiring Kristine Dillon of KLD Designs for any photography jobs -- especially…read morenot a once-in-a-lifetime event like a wedding. Hiring her was a mistake right from the beginning. Our first meeting was to take place at a Starbucks. She sent us a text message at the time of our appointment to cancel the meeting because her fiancé was supposedly suddenly super-ill. She wasted our time as we were already waiting for her there and we found it very unprofessional that she used texting to communicate rather than calling us. At our wedding she and her fiancé, who she brought as her assistant, were completely unprofessional, behaving more like guests than a hired vendor. She cheated us out of an hour of photos at a second location -- promised and paid for in advance -- because she lost her backup battery and her camera died. We had promised our family shots from this pre-arranged location (Kerry Park, with its postcard-perfect views of the Space Needle and downtown Seattle) and looked forward to these shots more than any of the others that day, and everyone was very disappointed not to have them taken. Our contract specified that a disc of our photos would be in our hands within 60 days of our wedding. When we contacted her after 60 days had passed she claimed her hard drive had crashed and she didn't know whether she had all our photos or not, but would send what she had immediately. It is completely irresponsible to not have a backup hard-drive when they are inexpensive and people are entrusting her with irreplaceable photos from such a special day. We tried to reach her via email and phone with no response for the next month and we received no photos. Finally at 90 days after our wedding and in serious breach of contract we emailed and called to tell her we were going to file a suit against her in small claims court. We were then contacted by some random person via email claiming to be her assistant and giving excuses of illness that was supposedly ongoing for two months, even though Kristine herself made no mention of this one month prior when her "hard-drive problems" were her excuse. Kristine posted about how busy she was on her business Facebook page 75 days after our wedding during the time she was supposedly "so ill" she couldn't return a phone call or email. She even had the gall to put a photo of us on her business's Facebook page to use our wedding as advertising for her business when we still didn't have any photos of our special day. On her personal Facebook account she made 20 posts in the month after our photos were already late. Somehow she was too ill to return a phone call or email to a paid-in-full client, but not too ill for making Facebook posts about her new job at a Chiropractor, a link about cosplay, and photos of her cat. After threatening to take her to small claims court, we finally got photos from her. It is absurd to have to go to these lengths to get a wedding photographer to honor their contract. We do not recommend hiring Kristine for ANY functions, especially not your wedding. She's not trustworthy, doesn't honor her contracts, is a terrible photographer and will give every excuse in the book. Save yourself our trouble and hire someone more experienced and professional.
