Dan and his crew are personable and highly professional. The pictures from our wedding day are beautiful and capture so many memories. His videography is excellent and he coordinates various parts of the day to music along with recording the ceremony, toasts at the reception, and other important events. He uses microphones, lights, and multiple cameras to provide a first-rate product. Dan met with us several times before our wedding and was flexible in providing exactly what we wanted. We highly recommend Dugan Studios for both photography and videography!

Years ago, I found that my Sunpak flashlight had a missing bolt on the Nikon shoe, two days before…read moreflying to Hawaii. I went on line to just to see the huge price for a replacement shoe, then to another repair shop to be asked for a 2-week estimate (for a missing bolt dude?), then ended up at Camtron. The owner asked me for a few minutes since he was busy with another customer. After a short wait and his examination, he went to his amazing stock of bolts and nuts and found the missing replacement bolt in matter of seconds and installed it. It cost me $1.20, which was 20 cents for the bolt and $1 for the labor, and a couple of hours round trip. Vacations saved! He also had in store a collection of used and repaired rarities like a few Nikonos I should have digged in at that time. He also tended me a pamphlet for a local photography exchange weekend event where I actually found my long-searched Nippon Kogaku 1.2:1 55 mm in pristine condition for a little money. I still use it on my F3 and D200 in manual mode. I think this business is now closed for years since I cannot find it anymore in the yellow pages. Too bad!

DO NOT BRING YOUR CAMERA HERE! This guy definitely has the worst customer service that I've ever…read moreexperienced. He makes you feel like you're not the customer. Even upon bringing my camera in I felt like I was being lectured about my camera, as if I should know everything about a $200 camera...and that's after having to wait for him to finish a ridiculously long conversation with the customer before me, who obviously couldn't wait to get out of the store. Also, I work overseas, and I dropped my camera off, which was not ready until over a month later...it takes two weeks for an estimate. After I called for an estimate, he told me how much the camera would cost to fix. I came back to the states and called about my camera, and he told me that cameras not picked up within 90 days are likely recycled, which is somewhat understandable, but I wish I had been told this when I dropped it off. He ended the conversation by telling me that "it had been junked"...followed by a click. Why would you give a repair estimate and then later say it was "junked"...it sounds like a lame way of trying to cover the fact that you sold it to another customer.

Daniel Michael Photography (Cincinnati) produced awful photos - and MISSED several key shots at our…read moredaughter's wedding in October (ex: NO photo of the newlyweds with the Bride's parents - and they hosted the event; no photo of the mother-of-the-bride putting on the bride's veil, no photo of the Bride in the Bride's Room at the event centre, no photo of the table settings, no photo of the guest book & gift table with custom card box, no photos of the bride's parents table at the reception, and on and on). They gave us back the final $500 payment out of $3k we paid for "a senior photographer with 2 assistants." They refused to give us the raw footage so we could have another photographer try to clean up the bad lighting and terrible angles. THANK GOD guests took iPhone photos or we would have had even less than we got from the "pros." You be the judge here are a few "Pro" photos versus to what guests took.

He was patient and took time with us. This is why we chose them. Johnny Darwish was our photographer and he was amazing. We received so many compliments on our engagement photos. The day of our wedding, which was October 24, 2020 he and his staff was part of the reason that our day went so smoothly. They kept us to our timeline, they engaged with the wedding party, and made everyone feel comfortable. They were there helping every step of the way and captured every moment perfectly. Our pictures look like they could be in a magazine. I could not have asked for a better group on our wedding day.

Robin captured the essence of our relationship with each other and the special people in our lives through her documentary style in both our engagement and wedding photos. She showed up the day of our wedding and for our engagement photos and took control in a great way, easing everyone into being comfortable with the camera and giving positive and constructive guidance on what to do in photos. She made our experience so memorable, fun and laid back and she's a huge part of the reason our wedding was such a blast. On top of this, she has a beautiful and fun spirit, and makes you feel like yourself from the first shot. We were nervous, not sure what to expect or if we'd feel/look comfortable on camera - she lets you be yourself and enjoy the experience and that was worth every penny. I've received a ton of compliments about how beautiful and natural our photos turned out, and we love them even 6+ months later. I highly recommend Robin for work, her professionalism and her beautiful style.

I recently had the chance to work with her again for my wedding. She drove to Norris Lake, TN and sat in traffic for 4 hours. She shot my wedding and then drove home for a wedding the next morning. I didn't hear her complain about it once. Not only is Robin's work unique and beautiful, she is just an amazing person and easy to work with. She was able to capture all of the big moments of our day along with all of the little details that could've been easily overlooked. I highly recommend Robin to everyone. They are more than just pictures, she truly captures the moment and emotion in every single one of her photographs.

To pick a friend out, stuff it, participate in the heart ceremony, fluff it, and dress it up, makes a new friend even more special. We have been to Build a Bears in several states. This location does have some of the more genuinely friendly staff. To provide such an unique experience, friendly staff is key. Even with the craziness that was the Pay Your Age event, customer service was on point. Once inside the store, the customer experience was no different than a regular visit. I tried to hurry my children, so the next group could enter. The staff seemed to be trying to give the children the full experience. This location was very calm inside. The way the unstuffed animals are displayed maximizes the selection for the space provided. Some locations spread out the selections. I like that this location has everything close together. Three stuffing stations are available. Three computers for registering one's furry creations, and a couple "wash"/ fluffing stations are available. Such an experience does not come cheap. From the higher price of the animals, to the price of outfits, accessories, and furniture, creating a new friend can really add up. Some of the outfits are as much as the stuffed animals.
