It felt very targeted and unnecessary, especially considering I had literally just paid. What made it worse was that as soon as I walked away, she walked away too, which made it obvious her behavior was directed specifically at me. It came across as profiling and made me feel extremely uncomfortable. No customer should feel watched or singled out after making a purchase. That kind of behavior completely ruins the shopping experience. On a positive note, Lori was absolutely fabulous--friendly, professional, and welcoming. She was the only reason the visit wasn't a complete negative. Unfortunately, because of Marty's behavior, I'd seriously think twice before coming back.

Price is very…read moregood for quality & ordering is a cinch because it's done online using intuitive AI through the website. We can pay online or pay in the store. Once one enters the store, it's a camera-person's fun zone (I guess). I didn't understand any of the products, except the frames. Doesn't matter, really, because the staff is incredibly helpful to everyone who enters the store. Location is convenient at Del Monte Mall in Monterey with nearby parking. Store is generally open during mall hours. Whether you're looking for a gift or something for yourself, or just need some printed photos, Green's Camera World is the best option in Monterey County. Oh, did I mention that Cassandra is a superstar!! Her customer service skills are very professional and she went out of her way to make sure that my experience was the best.

As I spent nearly 40 years walking the shops of Carmel while living nearby I had certain shops I…read morecontinually visited. This was one of them. I did so because of the unpressured saleswomen who work there.

So pleasant to discuss about their gallery.

I have always associated the name Weston, (peppers, shells and nudes) with Carmel, perhaps that's why I wasn't shocked at the price or surprised by the quality of the photography in this gallery.

He provided clear, detailed instructions on how to reach the location and shared helpful tips--like sending him our live location and a selfie in our proposal outfits so he could easily identify us. That level of preparation made the entire experience feel seamless and stress-free. What really stood out was how thoughtfully he planned everything. He made sure the spot was free of crowds and blended in perfectly as a "nature photographer," which kept the surprise completely intact. On the day of the proposal, Chris was punctual, professional, and incredibly patient. He spent about an hour with us, capturing such beautiful, genuine moments--all with a warm and friendly attitude that made us feel comfortable throughout. He also delivered the photos promptly, and the quality exceeded our expectations. One thing I especially appreciated was his integrity. Even though his pricing had increased between the time I booked and the actual shoot, he honored the original rate without hesitation. That says a lot about his character. Overall, I would highly recommend Chris to anyone looking to capture a special moment. He played a big role in making our day unforgettable.

Maria was the first to respond. She gave us clear pricing (which varied depending on location) and was patient and understanding when I told her I needed a few days to decide. We ultimately chose her because she was available on our preferred date and her pricing fit our budget...so glad we did! Even before meeting in person, Maria impressed us with her communication. She is incredibly client‑oriented, super responsive, and provided detailed recommendations (like what to wear). When I had questions and adjustment requests about the contract, she was flexible and honored my feedback without hesitation. At the shoot itself, Maria gave us great direction while also respecting our preferences when we didn't want to pose a certain way. She did great working with our toddler, keeping her engaged and capturing candid moments. The photos are beautiful, and her editing turnaround was impressively fast, and she proactively sent us updates on when she'd get us things. I didn't rely much on reviews when choosing Maria, but now that I'm writing this one and seeing the glowing feedback that others have shared, it's clear how consistent and exceptional Maria is!

Being a Big Sur/Monterey local, Adam provided extremely helpful insight and feedback for my proposal. He definitely helped relieve a lot of the stress during the planning phase of my proposal. On the day of the actual shoot, the day-of jitters was overwhelming at times, but Adam's energy and demeanor was very centering. He was patient and gave my new fiancee and I space to calm ourselves, and also knew when to take charge and guide us with our poses. He also had amazing and creative ideas for how to pose and brought us to local, reclusive spots to take intimate photos. Best of all, Adam always had a smile on his face and he made us really think like we were supermodels walking the runway haha. If you're going to do any photoshoot, especially a proposal or engagement shoot, in the Big Sur/Monterey area, I would highly recommend getting Adam!!
