Ado Photography Studio

I initially contacted Ado and it took him three weeks to get back to me. He claimed he was sick. I requested an in-​studio session but was told that the studio was closed so it would have to be on-​location. That wasn’t what I wanted but I went along with it anyway and made an appointment two weeks in advance. Ado told me that they were going to check out the site we agreed on and give me a confirmation call the day before the shoot. Well, it’s 9pm on the day before the shoot and no call, so I called them. He told me that he didn’t even go to check out the site yet plus it was going to rain at some point during the day so we should reschedule. I couldn’t believe he didn’t check out the site in two weeks but if it was going to rain I’d reschedule. So we moved the shoot to four days later. At 3am on the day of the shoot, Ado sends me a text saying that he can’t keep the appointment because of a family emergency. By now I’m kind of ticked but I ask when he can reschedule for… no answer. I try to contact him again. No answer. That was almost two weeks ago so I’m done with this photographer. I think they went out of business anyway because they closed the studio and changed their number without mentioning it on their site. I’m pretty sure they were closing when I contacted them but all he had to do if he wasn’t taking anymore appointments was say so instead of jerking me around. I was counting on those pictures. I’m going with someone else now, but if this photographer does still happen to be in business, I’d avoid them at all costs unless you want to play games over the phone for a month.

Ado is a blessing. I came to him for my first set of actor head shots and I couldn’t be happier. The shoot was supposed to last for only an hour but it ended up taking two hours of his time («I just want you to be happy,» he said). He appreciates the the art of photography and is comfortable defying conventions to produce a better product. Five is a high rating and I’m glad to give it even before I’ve seen the finished photos. We had fun, and that’s the most one could say of any shoot.

I could tell that photography is an art for them; they had so many different ideas and suggestions without being too pushy. Ado is very creative and talented photographer! I was a little nervous before the photo shoot, but they totally made me feel comfortable and I had a great time. They were such a pleasure to work with. I could tell they are experienced in different areas of the photography and their work shows in their portfolio online. Especially they are great with kids! Thanks, Ado Photography!
