He called and texted me multiple times per day to give me the weather forecast and cancel and reschedule our session every day for a week. Not knowing what the days ahead looked like stating there was rain in the forecast. He then told me that his clients come in on vacation and need to be flexible to accommodate his schedule. A day before our session is not a true and accurate forecast prediction. We had to readjust our entire trip to accommodate his schedule and lack of knowledge on what the weather was going to be. When he called me on the final day of our trip to then tell me again there was rain in the forecast and that we needed to move it earlier I agreed and he told me that there was no balance due and if it was a rain out when we got there he'd refund me the extra money he charged for my daughter senior portrait session and that we can use the deposit any time in the future as if we would be traveling back to see him........ so we drove 1.5 hours to get to him. We get to the beach to try and take pictures in the blistering heat and then he decided to insult my husband calling him a "Cry Baby" because it was so bright it was causing his eyes to water and not be able to keep them open. Once finished he left and text me yet again asking for more money after he stated there was no money due. Very upsetting for my family to waste the time and $200 on him to not get any pictures. He claims to have been in the business for 31 years, yet after researching and reading previous reviews we are just another victim of his scam and lack of professionalism. I would NOT recommend his business or services to anyone ever. Very un professional!

  Taking the family down the first week of July for the stepkids first trip to Siesta Key. We have zero family pics so we are looking to do some on access 8 or 9. Any recommendations on local photographers?
