For a long time, I used to work at Rembrandt Studios Chicago in sales and other promotions. I can state from personal experience that they are a terrible company ? one of the WORST photography studios in the Chicagoland area. I strongly advice potential customers to avoid them.
A lot of their key employees seemingly come and go as they please, and show up to work two hours after they?re normally expected. Rembrandt promises you an ?experienced photographer?, but in many cases, assign amateurs who have never even shot a wedding before. I was shocked when I learned this and even more distressed when I learned one of their photographers was assigned a second wedding after he had thoroughly ruined the first one they assigned him! Rembrandt is also months late on their ?estimated ready date? of their wedding album, miss many photos, and alarmingly, the owners act indifferent to the situation when couples have reached the end of their rope.
The ABC7 report was absolutely true when it stated Rembrandt leads the Chicago area in complaints. I wasn?t involved in those problem departments during my time with the company, and sadly my concerns fell on deaf ears, so I resigned. The people involved in the day to day operations of Rembrandt are backstabbers and extremely callous.
Don?t just take my word for it, see what other customers and former employees have to say.
Bottom line: Stay FAR away from Rembrandt!
Pros: None that I can think of.
Cons: Unprofessional, lax, cheap (as in cuts corners), incompetent
