I'm writing to warn you about a man who has deceived my family…read more
Harout Yerganian, formerly the owner of Picture Perfect Dallas, was hired to shoot a video and still photos for our wedding, and he made false promises, abused our hospitality, shirked his duty, made more than one kind of inappropriate advance upon members of the bridal party, lied to us for months at a time while pretending friendship, and charged us money for services he did not provide. When the facts became clear to us we asked him for a very reasonable partial refund he took us on a wild, unpredictable trip across the emotional map, including sobbed apologies on September 23, 2015, for his admitted failure. Three days later, Harout decided that he in fact owed us nothing, so angrily & amid a stream of profanity, told me to take him to court, then, while I was discussing the matter with a lawyer, left the country & resettled in St. John's Island.
When you put it all on paper, its quite a litany, & I'm trying to spare you the details.
If details interest you, feel free to contact me.
I've wrestled with how to deal with this betrayal for months now, and I'm determined to not act spitefully despite the theft & deception, and determined that sooner or later he'll go back to business shooting weddings, and when he does that he'll want to show off his positive reviews. Since I gave him a 4 star review when we thought this was a matter of a friend of ours overcharging us, I feel it's important to set the record straight.
Be wary of this man- he has shown himself to be a skilled liar, manipulator, and confidence trixter. He seems to be, while not without guilt, perfectly willing to repress it so he can run off with a few hundred dollars which he could make in an afternoon, he has admitted he owes us, & which he knows we saved for months to gather.
We thought he was our friend, and that he's shown that he never cared about us at all is the deepest cut.
It seems that he will only do the right thing if he's leveraged into it.
I encourage you to be cautious in your business with him, and to dissuade others from doing business with him.
Sincerely yours,
-David Eaton
