Wade Photography

Wade's photography was very professional. They were flexible when we needed to change the date for our team photos. They were very organized in getting everyone's photos taken in a timely manner. They even had our photos back to us the next day. That was above and beyond what was expected. They were very pleasant. The photos were the best I had ever seen of my kids in individual and team pictures. more

They have taken pictures for MANY of kids' sports teams. They are unprofessional, rude little Nazis. I have NEVER seen such discourteous and pathetic treatment of customers. Not once. Not for one team. Over the course of several years, for ALL of my childrens team photos. They are HORRIBLE. Additionally, their product is the worst you can imagine. The lighting is terrible. The pictures are taken with kids mouths open, no smiles, it doesn't matter. These guys just want to get done as fast as possible, no matter what the outcome. Every time we buy them, there are problems with the process. When we finally get the pictures, they are a pathetic mess. You'd think I'd learn by now, but they are my kids. I figure they can't be that bad EVERY time. I was wrong. They are that bad. If you have a cell phone, just take you kids picture with that. The quality of the final product will probably be better. more

They are always flexible with our time. Their product is great. They called me back to tell me their assistant slightly overcharged me. Pros: Used by many leagues more

I have had experiences with Wade's Photography before, always with them as vendor supplying photographs on a mass basis to sporting teams. They have always been fairly organized and the photos they take have been of a decent quality for that type of product. I have been treated professionally and courteously and their prices are reasonable. Yesterday I took my son to have his photo taken with his team. I started to walk toward the area to observe this process from a distance. I was told by a lady at the table that they did not allow parents to go where the children were being photographed. (It was outside). I noticed parents back where the kids were being photographed. I commented that I guess it was ok for some parents, but not for others. (I know, that was a snide comment and I regret making it. It, however, appeared to be true) The lady at the table overlooked my comment, but the man sitting there, jumped up, wild-eyed and yelled that ""parents who cared about the well-being of their children didn't go back there, while the ones who didn't care, did go back there!"" I was stunned. I checked and yes, he did have a Wade's Photography shirt on. I also observed him answer this same concern from a lady (accompanied by her husband) with a mild comment. If by some chance he happens to read this, and the lady as well, I would like to apologize for my comment. It was out of line, and the actions of other parents should have no bearing on whether or not I follow the rules. I am really sorry about that, but this company has always had a good reputation with me and I was very surprised by this behavior. Surely this isn't the first time they have had to deal with a contrary (to use a nice term) mom. I have to say that this experience has made me take a good look at myself. I haven't seen the photos yet, but I expect they will be a good quality and next time our organization uses Wade's, I'll steer clear of the registration table and the photography area :) more
