    I won a fairy contest for my daughter. The experience was fun and my daughter loved it. The photographers and helpers were amazing. Had my zoom to go over pictures and it was easy and the associate was not pushy at all. I was very happy with everything thus far, until I got the picture. Looks nothing like the photos this contest advertises. There is little to no artistry and I will not be showcasing this in my living room like the associate said is the best place for it. It's embarrassing to give this back to a client, I guess you get what you pay for since I just opted for the free session and a free 8x10. I give it two stars because my daughter did like the experience regardless of what the photo looked like.

    I love pictures so I just had to try this photoshoot for my daughter. She had just celebrated her 9th birthday so it was the perfect opportunity when we were selected as one of the few from the Facebook giveaway. I really didn't know what to expect at first but after seeing the photos in the company's portfolio, it really got my daughter and I intrigued . Everything from the initial consultation, to the photo shoot and the photo viewing was seamless. I received great communication by text and email. My only concern was the price because although we were offered a free session and a canvas print, the digital photos costed more than I expected. Regardless, my daughter enjoyed the photoshoot and it really shows through the pictures. I will cherish these photos forever and we'll always remember this experience!

    ! BEWARE ! I am extremely disappointed with my experience at Curious Kids Photography Studio. I was lured in by what I thought was a dog giveaway on Instagram, only to find out that it was a scam to get people to make a deposit of money. Not only was I misled, but I also had to go through the hassle of trying to get to Concord, even though I don't drive. It was a huge inconvenience for me and I felt completely taken advantage of. To make matters worse, when I found out that others had also been scammed by this company that's my friends in the dog community, I was shocked and frustrated. It's clear that they are preying on people's love for their pets and it's completely unacceptable. I tried to get my money back through my bank, but unfortunately, I was unsuccessful. I urge anyone considering using Curious Kids Photography Studio to think twice and avoid them at all costs. They are dishonest and only interested in scamming people out of their hard-earned money. Stay away from them!!

    Best photoshoot experience for my children, my babies could not stop talking about it ! The photographer captured candid photos that are my most favorite, the poses and background were very kid friendly and I cannot wait to share it with friends and family !! The staff Mary & Kylie the photographer were a pleasure to work with ! I wish I could've gotten all the photos because it was impossible to choose from all the amazing moments they captured. Thank you again my babies loved the experience & I love the photos so much!!!

    Notice it's not a Magical Forest experience. But after my complaints I finally got a receipt that made sense for all of my troubles.

    BEWARE!!!! Finally had the time to post my experience about this scam and sketchy place. Entered the giveaway dog model call that they posted which is now called "dog model needed" which entitles 1 free 10' portrait and a $150 credit and a free photography session. I paid $150 for the REFUNDABLE deposit. Booked my appointment yada yada that's normal. Oh and remember our giveaway states a "magical forest experience!" Place: A quiet office plaza across from a motel 6 or some type of hotel. Not a great area, I had to text them that I arrived early, still waited another 5-10 min before they came out to get me. They brought me to a waiting room to sign a paper stating photo session rules yada yada, normal sure. Session: There were a photographer, and 2 assistants but I still had to be the one guiding my pup and we did a few photos together. My pup was nervous so another photographer, I'm guessing the more experienced person took over and was able to capture some photos quickly. Afterwords: They said done, and that they will set a zoom call to discuss the photos. Fast forward to zoom call with Mary. Showed me a slideshow and I did like the pictures, told me all about the packages. I knew my budget limit and stated I can't afford it yet she still tried to sell it to me to the point where the discounts went from 1900 to 600 and I still had to say no but was able to get a pending order for 10 prints in case I changed my mind. I still ended up getting scammed of paying an extra $70 on top of my refundable deposit with their $150 credit for ONE digital ($395 for ONE DIGITAL) After the call I looked over several receipts and it states that it's nonrefundable and that no changes can be done. HOWEVER, Mary didn't disclose about my free print until I went over all the previous emails, I realized that she didn't mention anything about what I could be getting through this giveaway, all she did was try to sell sell sell. I quickly let my dog mom friends know about this place and what happened. I found out they charged different people different DEPOSITS!! I had a friend got charged $100 for her deposit! Like WTH?! We were only 1 day apart from the purchasing date too. Long story short, make sure you have friends that are doing this "deal" you never know! Also they disclose my "brokenness" to my friends who confronted them. How professional... I ended up disputing with my bank about this fraud, they tried to scare me by calling multiple days straight before Christmas and sent over messages about how they're disputing back with evidence. They sent over a mutual rescission agreement where if I sign it I take back my words and not fight with them basically. I got my money back. SCREENSHOT OR SAVE every document you get because it expires :) Staff: Mary is not the person in charge and can not do exchanges/payment requests. Bernadette is the same, and doesn't do anything but notify you through email/text. There's another person but these 2 people were in my situation.

    Overall a great experience! Won a giveaway put down $150 for a deposit, got that back & out of it ended up paying $100 to get 4 pictures that were totally worth it! Once you go in it's such a beautiful studio and setup / experience! Definitely once in a lifetime thing that you should definitely do for your children if you can afford it! She was very cooperative with my niece and I'm forever grateful for the memories well always have! It does get pricy if you want the whole 17 set of pictures they take, that would be a total of around $3000. Once again like I said too expensive if we hadn't have won it and my mom actually won this for her! I was a bit skeptical at first since we " won" but once we received them I was so happy to see it was not bs! Thank you so much! Hope this helps!

    We had an opportunity to participate in a photo session for my 4-year-old daughter. I was so excited when I found out we were able to do this for her because she loves everything about fairies and animals. The photographer greeted us and showed us to our dress room. There was a dress and flower crown for my daughter already set and ready for her to put on. She was so happy to see that her dress was her favorite color and she was so excited for the next step. The photographer was so sweet and patient, our daughter was super shy but she made my daughter feel comfortable and still was able to get really good shots! We were pleased with our experience here. A few weeks later, we met with Mary to view the proofs and the slideshow that they made for us with a beautiful song almost made me tear up. The innocence and sweetness of my daughter showed in all these photos. She had me pick my favorite photos and we were able to leave the Zoom meeting happy and content with what we picked out. I highly recommend booking a session with Curious Kids Photography, this experience for my 4-year-old is something she's going to cherish and memories me and my husband are going to always remember.

    Jojo says hello! :)

    Just wanted to thank you Curios Kids Photography for the wonderful experience! I entered a raffle for a photoshoot in December and my sweet doggy was chosen! I have a 4 yr old chihuahua named Jojo and she's my partner in crime so I was excited to be apart of this experience. Jojo came to me in 2019 after I had lost one of my childhood pets in 2018. I had a loving and loyal chihuahua who I got to spend 14 wonderful years with. It was devastating and I felt like my world fell apart. My brother came to me in 2019 saying his coworker had puppies. I didn't know if I was ready to open my heart again, but I learned from my brother that she had been rehomed a few times and nobody wanted to keep her. So I took her in my arms and promised to always love her like she deserves. I really do believe maybe we were meant to be together. And I'll love her for all my life. And that's how our story began. And it's only the beginning of our adventure together! Jojo taught me how to love again Thank you Curious Kids Photography for a moment I'll always remember.

    What an amazing experience--- I brought my pit bull & Doberman to Curious Kids after winning a Photoshoot. Shaina was so friendly and helpful when setting up the appointment and day of the photographer who worked with us was so patient & focused with the dogs! One of my dogs is very anxious and i felt everyone at the studio was understanding and she actually did so great!!! The pictures came out amazing I actually cried when I saw the slideshow Mary made for the portrait selection meeting!

Their template for our "desired and must-get" photos list was very helpful for organizing, and our phone conversations with them were great for figuring out what we wanted and hammering out logistics. On the day of the wedding, we had morning activities and an evening reception. Jenny and George were on time and enthusiastic for everything. They were flexible as our schedule shifted slightly throughout the day, and they were very active in making sure we got all the photos from our list. Now that we have the final photos, we can also say that we are thrilled with the results. Great candids, great staged photos, and we really like the editing style.

Jenny and Geo (her husband and assistant photographer) are very responsive, professional, and committed to providing you all the shots you want. My husband and I hired JennyDee Photography for both our Engagement and Wedding photography and we could not be more pleased. We had multiple calls in the months leading up to the wedding to align on what we wanted, discussed the overall wedding timeline, and provided the list of shots we wanted. Their website also has example timelines for photography, which were very helpful as we planned our day and allowed us to not compress everything too much. Working with Jenny and Geo is also a great experience. They are organized, funny, kind, and encouraging -- they will help pose you as needed, but generally allow for a very genuine capture of the day. They are also very organized and will help keep things moving efficiently without being overbearing -- I could trust that they would get all the shots we needed without feeling like I needed to check in, and both posed and candid shots were phenomenal. Finally, all the photographs we received from JennyDee Photography (in less than a month!) are joy and whimsy personified. They managed to capture the color, vibrancy, and happiness of that day in the photographs -- I couldn't stop smiling the whole time I reviewed the gallery. The photography and editing style is so vibrant, genuine and fun in a sea of very muted photography nowadays-- I will lovingly look at the pictures for years to come. I could not recommend them more highly. Photo Credits: @JennyDeePhotography
