Def should've read the reviews prior to making an appointment. I applied via IG, and a lady name…read moreJessica continue to call me. Even with the tone of "this was a limited and very selective", at the start her responses was as if she didn't want to answer my questions or concerns. So I stop showing interest, told her I'll look at the site or email. But never did. Jessica called me back weeks later, answering everything with more of a kinder tone, and even waived the deposit fee. We RSVP for a session on a Sunday. Keep in mind on Sunday their office is not open, and if you're having trouble locating the studio; (which is found a street over, according the GPS) you will have no help. They have a team of photogs, and a stylist who select clothing and do hair and makeup. which is cool. Once completed with the different looks, and time to view photos it was two individuals prior to my son. We have been there for 3 hours, When I communicated with the owner of the studio Angela, according to her response, she let me know that each session is quouted 4 hours, and my schedule time was at 4pm so ideally it'll be ended at 8. Okay that's fine, we'll just go grab a bite if that's okay, and we'll be right back' since she had a mom and daughter who was ahead of us to view their photos. Angela express that they don't keep photos after the end of the session, and that it'll take about 20 mins or so for them to view their work. (yet she was with the previous person for a half hour), and the mom was waiting in the room with my son and I. Upon returning back (in 25-30 minutes. At 7:20pm) all the lights were off. The door was locked. I could see the lights on by the back stairs, I knocked, and call, left voice messages. NOthing, no call, which she had our contact because we filled out the sheet with our details. Nothing. This was a complete waste of our time on a Sunday. We could have went home, in the case we could have stayed home. We showed up a hour early, and we stayed nearly a hour late; for the owner Angela to not have the common decency to keep the duration of the time frame she reminded me of. Ps. I return back more than a half our before the ending of our session time, or twenty-five mins later. This was so upsetting. Even the next day I never received a call back. Days later I reached out to Jessica told her about the experience above, and she noticed in the notes no package was selected, yet she didn't think to follow up with a simple call. It felt a bit off setting from the time I entered to the time I called back after the experience. My son and I have not view any of the photos captured. I spoken to a supervisor and he explained that they're capable of emailing proof photos to me, but I haven't viewed them either. It the link was not clear, and didn't get me access to view them only to prompt me to change the password, I haven't reached back out to anyone, and I was waiting to make this review. All I can say is trust your gut, and read the reviews.

Short version: This photography company (not modeling agency) leaves you responsible for finding…read moreand securing your own modeling gigs. They are very transparent about their limited services before presenting you with their unconscionably-priced packages ranging from around $400 up to around $6000, executed as contracts with clauses that expressly state that you cannot cancel. Go to a reputable modeling agency. Successful models do not pay lump sums of money to get started. They contract with agencies who are paid a percentage of their earnings from gigs their agencies book for them. Some modeling agencies will do your photoshoot for you! You've been warned. Long version: Walked into the building and it was evident from the clientele that the company is NOT selective, though they lead with the appeal that you attend in hopes of being selected. Saw all walks of life in there. One guy was definitely giving trucker vibes. Spoiler alert: If your money is green, you will be selected. The money they collect from people new/ignorant to the modeling industry is clearly NOT invested in the studio space. The basic backdrop/set (white) is situated inside of the space's kitchen, yep, it is directly adjacent to the refidgerator and shows signs of wear. The only changing room available (besides the bathroom if you chose that option) is begging for a fresh coat of white paint and as little as a command hook on the wall for hanging your change of clothes. The tiny corner in the back, situated directly beneath a staircase leading to the only other set, has two rolling racks and two large suitcases wide of a floorspace (to be shared by multiple clients for storing their clothing changes/personal items). There were only two stylists available for approximately 6 clients during my visit, and the one assigned to my daughter left before the 4th/final look was shot. Therefore, my daughter styled her own hair for her final look so to not have to wait for the other stylist to finish the client she was working on (because we were at the studio for over 3 hours already). The finale is when you are invited into the office to find out if you were "selected." There, you are met with high-pressured sales tactics, think timeshare presentation style pitches, including urgency and language like, "Available today only" (due to lack of storage space) and "I'm sure you don't want to be here any longer than you've already been." Seeing through it all, I can only remember thinking to myself there is a certain sense of irony in that I would not "select" the person in charge of "selecting" my daughter because some of the crapton of money this woman (Dawn) collects for the company could very well be spent on correcting her two front teeth. Perhaps then I would find her more convincing as a professional, especially a professional attempting sales in the modeling industry. Too many red flags. Went to a reputable modeling agency instead.

My venue recommended this photographer, so it was a no brainer for me. It was important for me to…read morego with the venue's choice as the venue is a dimly lit place and I was told that an inexperienced photographer could have issues. Scott was a breeze to contact, email, and sign the contract. After that, it was just waiting. He did send reminders for the day of before the wedding, which were helpful. Scott showed up on time, if not slightly early, and shot pictures of me, the bride, in my hotel room and throughout the ceremony/reception at the venue. All the guests thought he was great and I'm impressed with all the photos he was able to get of the guests on top of the shots of me and the groom. The wedding was Nov. 7 and I had pictures 1.5 months later, which I think is amazing- especially for how busy he is! I have a friend that waited 3 months for just the first look photos! I highly recommend Scott Kelley photography, he was very fun, efficient, and the photos look great!

WOW! Scott did such a fantastic job for my daughter's wedding reception party. Not only was he a…read moremaster behind the camera but a true professional. He arrived on time, maintained a friendly and approachable demeanor and made us feel at ease throughout the session. These were absolutely beautiful photos and he was able to capture so many amazing memories from our special day. I plan to use only SCOTT in the future for any photo session I need. Thank you Scott for the wonderful photos.

River Oaks, Montrose

I will start with the positive. The staff was very friendly from the very start. My hair looked…read moregood and the place was an old cute house. The not so good. From the moment you walk in you start spending money. Not including my sitting fee and hair, I spent 150 before I even went back downstairs to take my pics, including a tip that was "not expected but appreciated" I took my pics, made my appt to come back and view them and then when I did come back I found seven out of 100 that were worth taking home, however, since the pics are 159 ea unless you take the 8 for $800 package, I had to narrow it down to 3 ( which cost me 480) because there is no in between package. I will say the 3 I chose to take home, I did like but 480 for 3 pics is ridiculous. Overall I am glad I had the experience but so feel like I got a bit ripped off.

It was a ripoff. I…read morebought a Groupon and spent a good few hours of my time doing the photoshoot. It was fun and all but when it came time for me to look at the pictures, it was a complete failure. I set up my return appointment and when I showed up their system was down and they couldn't show me the pictures. The lady that normally handles the appointment eventually left the the company. Well even though the shoot is suppose to be all inclusive with the groupon, they still charge your card 150 just "in case " you buy anything. Which you don't get a chance to because they never answer their phones. I have left many messages now and they still have not refunded my money nor showed me my pictures or even given me a good reason of what is going on. Don't waste your time and don't give them your money. Once you get in, 1 picture is almost 400 and a package can go up to 800.
