I couldn't speak more highly of Thaddeus and his work as a photographer. Not only is he a true…read moreartist, but he's professional, magnetic, funny, and affable. Getting one's headshots done can feel scary. I was nervous going into it, but the minute I arrived all my guards came down because Thaddeus made me feel safe and secure, sexy and beautiful. He is a natural born teacher and taught me so much prior to the shoot about what was expected of me. For example, coming prepared is his number one request. When booking with Thad you're entering into a symbiotic relationship where both of you contribute. My headshot experience was unique in that what I wanted to achieve was two-fold: to get business and actor headshots (both theatrical & commercial). During our initial consultation I learned from Thad that in my case, I would be playing three roles for the shoot: the talent, artistic director, and fashion stylist. In order for me to succeed at the latter two Thad gave me a step-by-step guide: I needed to create a Pinterest board, identify outfits that inspired me, pull looks from my own closet, print inspo pictures and pair them with each of my looks, and of course hang my clothing and transport them in garment bags. It may sound like a lot of work, and it is, but it is so worth it bc Thaddeus will come just as prepared if not more with his own work completed (photography-wise) not to mention his years of experience and countless stories on the job including glamorous tales and wildly funny tribulations (the kind that enough time has passed for one to be able to laugh at them) from his time in NYC. Also, as I said, my photoshoot was unique as I was responsible for the preparations. Typically, Thaddeus is hired for major commercial shoots or fashion magazines where there are whole teams of people hired to assist. Not only did he teach me how to prepare, but Thaddeus also gave me the gift of directing me throughout my shoot. Having stepped away from the acting world to build my business experience, I felt a little rusty. My thoughts included, "Do I have what it takes? Will I still have the acting chops? Am I good, capable, or pretty enough?" The answer was yes to all. I had everything I needed inside me for the shoot to be a success and I give Thaddeus credit for bringing it out in me. Since I have begun this diatribe, I'll explain. Currently, as a 33-year-old woman, I am on a journey to know and fall in love with myself, believing in myself all on my own. And that's why my photoshoot was so powerful. Thaddeus believed in me before I did. He did so because he cares and that's evident in him contributing his art, his photography, and his good and wise nature to the world. Thaddeus' standards of excellence are so high that you will see it and feel it the moment you meet him, the moment you walk into his convivial, clean, professional photography studio you will know you're in the right place. You will rise to the level of excellence Thaddeus exudes because you won't be able to deny its surrounding power and presence. Thaddeus' hard work and desire to continue working until things are just right is an inspiration. My headshots turned out so beautifully and dynamically. We even got to play with some editorial shots! Attached are 4 of the 11 looks we captured, thanks to Thaddeus! LAST thing, I would be remiss not to mention and praise Elsa Delgado Perkins (who Thad recommended) - https://makeupandhairbyelsa.com/contact/ who did my hair and makeup and absolutely nailed it! The whole experience was a delight! Trust me, Thaddeus Harden Photography doesn't disappoint.

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!

Just sharing my experience with Stephanie Jensen Photography. She is located in Burleson, tx now…read more I would've reviewed her on Facebook, but she blocked me after I sent her the included emails, so I'm listing this here. I have since heard from several people (including photographer friends that see her post on Facebook about her received complaints on photography groups) that I am not the first to have this experience with her and this is a pretty normal situation with her. If you have used her in the past, I highly recommend you review your portraits done by her. I hope that your portraits were great, but I know for a fact that I'm not alone in my experience and the fact that she wont correct it and blocks customers with issues has led me to this point. Important Information: I am a photographer myself and believe in supporting the industry. I have had over 10 portrait sessions in the past 6 years and they were completed by 5 different photographers. I strive to be the client I want to work with and love all of the portraits I've gotten with other photographers. I use different photographers to get different styles of portraits. I paid about $250 for the "model session" and an extra $200 to get all of the portraits from the session in advance. I received 47 portraits total, I am content with 5 of them. They all have severe editing issues like Cloning mistakes, Oversmothing of the skin, and AI generating issues. The portraits took place on June 25th, I received them on Aug 4th. I only reviewed them on my phone up until last night. I do print out large portraits from Smallwoods and hang them in my house, so quality matters. I have had other family members and other photographers review my photos as well and they agree they were badly edited. My goal here is to leave an honest review since she apparently doesn't allow people to do that on her Facebook site. And to hopefully stop this from happening to someone else. Im not sure if I have ever even left a bad review on here before, but this needs to be done. I don't want her to go out of business, I want her to do better for her clients. (I messed up on numbering the email photos, there is no number 3)
