This store is completely unethical. I recently bought a used lens here and ended up needing to…read morereturn it. Nowhere on the page of the website does it say that you cannot return used gear (I checked twice, so if the site says it now they have added it after I am posting this review), and they certainly did not tell me in person when I went to the shop. After coming in, I also saw that most of the lenses listed on the website were no longer available. I did my due diligence and called to inquire about the lenses I was interested in before I drove all the way out there, and the employee I spoke to on the phone said everything on the website was in stock. I went to return the one I bought and the manager took a look at it and, unprompted, said it was in the exact same condition as it was when I purchased it. I didn't even use it, so of course caused no damage. It even had all the original packaging I was given when purchased. The only place it is noted that they don't take returns on used gear is on the receipt. When do you get a receipt? AFTER you make a purchase. When would it be ethical to tell a customer you don't take returns on the item they are about to buy? Probably BEFORE you actually purchase it. They offered to buy the lens back from me. I paid over $160 for the lens. They bought it back for $60. Also noteworthy is that it took the manager approximately 10 minutes to inspect the lens and they charge a 15% restocking fee. So basically if you have to return a brand new lens they are charging you 15% for a 10 minute inspection and approximately 1 minute to take the lens out of the box and put it in the display case at the counter. Seems a little ridiculous, but maybe that's just me. So there goes 2+ hours of drive time, plus gas money, plus the loss of $100 when they could have just told me, or at least gave people a heads up on their website that they don't accept returns. I would never have bought a used lens had I known returns were not accepted, as that's not a risk I would be willing to take, especially at that price. If you want to support a local business with good moral and ethical standards, Humble Camera Center is not the place for you. Edited to respond to Mr. Crosby: I was not rude to you or your employees, so I'm not sure why you would assume I would leave a negative review. My facial expressions probably did show my disappointment - I don't have the best poker face - but I was quiet and tried my best to keep my tone neutral. I guess I didn't see the signs. I would expect honest people to be straight-forward and make sure their customers are fully aware of their policies before making a sale. It is, indeed, printed on the receipt. A receipt I received AFTER already purchasing the item. Admittedly, I do not understand such a large restocking percentage as it relates to the very little time and effort it takes you to restock. I understand that you are trying to protect yourself from people attempting to basically rent your gear at no cost to them, however I am simply an honest customer (as I suspect most are) with no ill intentions. I guess I didn't think to ask if I would be able to return the lens. I was not planning to use it and return it, to take advantage of you and your business in any way, and frankly, I am not a psychic. I think it would be far more ethical if you were open and honest. With no heads up that I could not return the item, I did not consider that you would be so morally deficient as to refuse a legitimate return of an item that was in the same condition as it was when purchased, as you mentioned yourself. As you said, you did not sell me the lens, and therefore have no knowledge about what I did or did not ask. I suppose not believing a customer is par for the course with you. Perhaps you did sell the 4 lenses I was looking at that were allegedly available on Saturday before they were removed on Monday. It seems unlikely, but unlike you, I'm willing to give another person the benefit of the doubt. I agree that I did not have to accept your offer. Unfortunately, your suggestion of reselling it myself is far more difficult, risky, and complicated than selling it back to you. And honestly, after over 2 hours of driving, gas money and time spent, I felt very defeated when you refused to refund my money. I did everything I possibly could think of to ensure that I was purchasing from a reputable company, and yet here we are. Also, I do not appreciate your passive-aggressive, rude private message. If I wasn't convinced you were lacking moral integrity before, I am certain of that now. While I am a bit surprised no one has called out your ethical failures until now, I hope you take my honesty to heart and work on improving yourself and your business.

The entire process of hiring and communicating with her was flawless - she replied immediately to our questions and was always happy to chat either via phone, email or text. On the day of the wedding she was very calm and organized. She got all of the "must have" shots that I requested and never seemed to break a sweat. The icing on the cake with Sarah for me is her obvious love for what she does. You can tell she loves creating these memories for people and that makes her creations even more amazing. I can look at the pictures of myself from various points in the night and feel the same emotions that I was experiencing at the time.

She is incredibly honest with everything and won't try to upsell you on extra portraits/books/hours/etc. She walked us through the whole process and replied to all my emails/texts within minutes (I contacted her quite a bit). We sent her pinterest boards for ideas beforehand and met with her one last time to finalize everything. The day of, she and Leslie her 2nd photographer showed up early to get ready. Both parties had their own photographer the whole time and took incredible pictures. Our favorite part about Anne Marie is that she has great ideas for pictures...it seems like most photographers have a certain template of pictures they use and all their weddings end up looking similar. She was there for every shot and was able to work with our other vendors seamlessly and with a smile. We received our pictures about a month-ish later and was very impressed! She took the time to edit the pictures (lighting, filtering, photo-shopping, etc). In our opinion, everyone should book Anne Marie for your wedding photography...we will be recommending her to everyone and will probably use her again for any photography needs in the future!

This is the first time my wife and I needed one, so we did not know where to turn. Recommendations from wedding websites and google searches left us with a long list, and still no closer to finding anyone we liked. After spending a lot of time doing research and feeling lost in the whole process, we were lucky enough to be referred to Michael by a friend who is also a photographer. Michael really took the time to get to know us personally and make us feel comfortable with the whole process. We really appreciated the communication he provided, as well as having him there involved during our wedding planning to make sure our special day was captured just right. Michael and the entire crew went above and beyond to make sure everything was well captured. From showing up early to check out the venue, getting to know the special people we wanted captured, getting those must have shots we requested, and their ability to make themselves invisible while they documented our special day. The attention to detail and love for what they do is a real testament to their professionalism. Thank you for capturing the memories that will last a life time.

From the moment she arrived on our first shoot, her commanding yet approachable personality made everything so much easier and fun! Coordinating a large photo with over 300 family members on our special day can be chaotic, but Angie handled it all by herself with grace and authority, making sure everyone was in place quickly and efficiently. I was truly impressed by this specific skill set she has because I've never seen anyone get my family in order so quickly haha. So if you have a large Asian wedding, I highly recommend Angie. Her ability to direct is also a talent of her own. Angie always gave clear, quick, and helpful instructions on how to pose, ensuring every shot looked natural yet polished. She made everyone feel comfortable, and the results were stunning. Best thing is that she directed our poses so efficiently that it left more time to actually take lots of photos! One of Angie's other greatest strengths is her dedication to capturing the bride and groom's vision. We shared a few inspo photos with her, and she went above and beyond to recreate them while adding her creative touch. Her attention to detail and willingness to listen truly set her apart. Not only that, she would always scout out our requested locations ahead of time to optimize the best areas for the shoots and to take into account all the natural lighting she can use to capture the perfect photo. I also want to applaud her for being so organized to fit our timeline while also working with other vendors we hired such as the videographer and our wedding coordinators. She is such a likable person and works well with everyone. Lastly, the turnaround time to receive our photos was so quick. And quality was not sacrificed in the editing whatsoever despite the short time frame. So, if you're looking for a photographer who's talented, organized, and truly invested in bringing your wedding photo dreams to life, Angie is the one. We couldn't be happier with the experience and the gorgeous photos she delivered! We love you Angie!

This was a terrible experience from the moment the owner and her assistant walked into my wedding…read more When I first met with her, her albums were impressive and she seemed nice so I hired her. On my wedding day, I was completely relaxed from the moment I woke up in the morning, right up until this photography team walked in. The assistant was saying she was feeling sick and kept complaining about it. She then proceeded to be rude to my mother (who was footing the bill, by the way) and then try to tell me when the wedding things like cutting the cake, first dance, etc should occur when I had a coordinator for that specific purpose. Fast forward to after the wedding. I received a CD of the pics taken and was very disappointed. There weren't that many (from what I hear from other brides they had at least 500 shots) and were badly exposed and composed. I was supposed to choose about 100 shots to put into an album, but life happened and we had to pick up and move across the country, so I didn't get to order the album shots until about a year after we were married. I gave the photographer my order and did not hear from her other than to check in and say she's still working on it. 7 months later, I call to ask what the status was and she put it off on the album company not having the album after being bought by another company, etc, but that was 2 months AFTER she told me she ordered them AND I had to call her to get her to follow up with them. They had lost the order, so the photographer had to re-order. Basically, from the time I gave the photographer my shot choices to when I held the album in my hand, a whole year went by. Then she was rude to me when I asked if she would ship it to me. Which she didn't. However once I did get the album, it was a beautiful product. I guess that's worth the one star.
