Our date was scheduled for early January 2014. I was hoping she would snap some great photos of my family, including my two children, husband and dog. Only four days before the appointment, she cancels due to a personal issue. It takes her over one month to respond- only to tell me that she is now on bed rest for the next few months. I am heartbroken because now my dog has passed away, and my children are well over their birthday milestones. I ask for a refund and she agrees, only to never send it. She claims she sent the refund on March 20th and I have never heard back from her. Autumn is not someone you should do any business with.

Not only were all of the pictures beautiful but they are wonderful individuals. We were coordinating things from Chicago in the middle of a move across the country. It was a hectic time for us but they were completely understanding, patient, and willing to work with us the entire way. Their priority is making sure that you are happy as a client and that's a great feeling to have in midst of everything. They felt like friends as they guided us throughout our wedding day and the shots prove that they are not only experienced but above and beyond. I would highly recommend them not only for your engagement session or wedding day but for any photography needs that you may have. You will not regret it.

We hired Mad Chicken for our wedding in August 2013 in Duluth, Minn. After looking at websites and…read moreportfolios for several photographers in the area, and being very impressed with the photos Jes (the owner and primary photographer) showed on her website and blog -- as well as a strong, half-hour conversation with her -- we decided to go with Mad Chicken. Despite it being the most expensive photographer we looked at, we felt the investment would be well worthwhile. And despite getting married in Duluth, we live in Washington state, and we hoped Mad Chicken would give us a trouble-free experience with amazing photos of our important day. We were wrong. In hindsight, we absolutely wish we had gone with another photographer, both because of the quality of images and the stress that we've had dealing with the company since our wedding. For the most part, our wedding-day photo experience was fine. Our family photos outside the church were taken on a hill with a fairly steep slope, but in a pretty, wooded area. But despite us telling Jes more than a month ahead of time the general area where we wanted our wedding photos taken (and telling her on a timeline sheet provided by her), she seemed completely unsure of where to take the photos. Eventually, they were taken along a brick wall, behind a restaurant in an alley. When we received our photos, we were horribly disappointed -- and not just because they arrived later than the date guaranteed in our contract. First off, there were zero usable photos showing the bride and her mother. Secondly, the wedding party photos, taken in the alleyway, prominently showed neon beer signs, broken-down HVAC systems and bird droppings on the wall. When we voiced our disappointment about these shots, Jes claimed we had changed the location for this shoot late in the process (which is not true -- we never changed the location), and she would always choose a location with good lighting over good scenery. This would have been fine with us, if the photos had been properly edited, so that we didn't have to see a lot of junk in our wedding party photos. Unfortunately, they were not. Most of the photos lacked imagination and creativity. Most of the best shots, in fact, were ones that had been suggested by us before and during the shoot. Despite having two photographers working throughout the day, there were virtually no shots of the bride getting ready at the church. We sent Jes an email expressing our concerns and asking for some more photos to be edited. She responded with an offer of editing five photos, and we followed by asking for at least 20 photos to be edited. After that, we heard nothing back for more than two weeks. Eventually, just to get a response, we had an attorney send her a letter, detailing some of the problems and requesting either some money back or having more photos edited. After getting nothing but silence for weeks, Jes responded the day after our attorney sent the letter offering to edit 20 photos, or to do considerably more if we agreed not to write a review. After agreeing to have 20 photos edited, she further pushed the idea of having more photos edited in exchange for signing a non-disparagement clause. About two weeks after that (now more than six months after the wedding), we received our edited wedding-party photos, which did look nice, though not noticeably better than other friends' wedding-party shots, taken by photographers who charged far less. Had these photos been what we received at first, we wouldn't have been overjoyed, but would have had no issues that required additional months of stress and threats of legal action. We have family members who have used other wedding photographers in Duluth, and we now wish we had used one of them. Many of the other photographers offered the same 'extras' as Mad Chicken (or more), and provided hundreds of high-quality, edited images, but at a much lower price -- and with considerably less stress and aggravation.

He and his assistant captured every moment of our wedding, showed up on time at 8:30 am and didn't leave until close to midnight! He was very professional to work with but also knew how to have fun and it was very natural to have him there documenting every part of our day. He was creative and also open to suggestions. He also worked very well with the kids present during our wedding. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer to document their occasion.
