Glamour Shots is too expensive for the product you receive and the time frame in which you receive it.
The photo shoot itself was pleasant. The makeup/hair artist and photographer were both nice and attentive. I enjoyed working with them (although I was nervous and not used to posing in sexy outfits in public). When I reviewed the photos with another associate, I was not pressured into buying any photos I didn't want and I was told upfront what the various packages would cost. After paying for the biggest package I could afford, I was given a disc of the slideshow and told that I would be contacted when the photos were available to pick up.
In the email I received from them and on their website, it states that the turnaround time for the photos are generally 2-3 weeks, but can take up to four. The photos were supposed to be an anniversary present for my boyfriend, so I made my appointment as early as I could, 3 weeks before the date. Then I waited and waited. And waited. They finally contacted me about the photos MORE than 4 weeks later! For a disc with 10 photos, one 10x10 framed photo, and a 8x10 calendar (one sheet), I had to wait MORE than 4 weeks. My anniversary came and went while I was still waiting for the photos that were supposed to be a present. I was very angry that it took longer than the maximum time frame that they had promised.
The photos came out nice and I was pleased with the quality. However, the whole ""glamour touch"" is not worth the cost to me and I feel the same quality of photos could be achieved by most any photographer/photoshop user. Knowing how much they charge, how long it takes to receive your product, and the quality of the photos, I would never return to Glamour Shots and feel like it was not worth the time/money spent.
