We were in the woods in a beautiful setting which was not at all captured by the photos. She later said that it wasn't her job to get people to pose for pictures. So, we really don't have good photos of our guests. We really struggled to find 50 good photos for the album that we paid for. Once we begrudgingly figured that out, it took a really long time for her to produce the album. When she did, there was a major typo right on the front title page. When I asked her what intended to do about this, she simply emailed me the contract saying that fixing typos was our responsibility. After emailing her again, she said she would fix it, but for another $300. Terrible.

He does commercial work, he's done architectural…read morephotos for my in-laws, and his downtown studio is lined with artistic and outdoor photos that he will tell you (perhaps only partially truthfully) that he does for fun. Don't let that give you the impression he's the jack of all photographic trades but master of none. He's just plain good at what he does, the result of an eye for detail, an insistence on getting the details right, and over three decades to hone his craft. Although he does not promote himself as an event photographer, he does hire himself out as one. You will pay more for his services than you will for an upstart's. The pictures you get will be better than most from people who do advertise themselves as event photographers. It will be worth every extra penny, perhaps even to bring him down to Phoenix. My wife and I chose him after reviewing the portfolios of several Prescott area photographers. During this search we were largely bothered by what we saw: photographers choosing to show off shots that were poorly thought-out and sometimes mis-lit or mis-exposed--for example, a bride and groom's seemingly disembodied heads looking down from a window--but impressed by Marchetti. And his work for our wedding shows that his portfolio shots are not out-of-the-ordinary happy accidents but actually representative. It almost never rains in Prescott in October, but it did on the day of our wedding. The weather was unrelenting, alternating between drizzles and downpours with only one break in the clouds. Our planned outdoor ceremony and partially outdoor reception was hastily moved indoors. Needless to say, the lighting was very challenging. But Marchetti was up to the task, and without cluttering up our setting with obtrusive studio-style lighting. With a bracket-mounted strobe, a light dash of postprocessing, and a lot of care he took for us a set of much better than passable--well-composed and without bad shadows--photos of the ceremony, pre-event posed shots of the wedding party in various combinations, and candids and semi-candids at the reception. Technical skill aside, what Marchetti is able to get people to do really sets him apart. He has a "strong personality", meaning he's abrasive at times when doing the posed shots, but at the same time possessed of the personable quality an ability to patter more common in barbers and bartenders. He can get his subjects to relax, and give natural smiles and lively eyes. Good taste helps, too; there were none of those stupid "tilt you heads toward each others'" in either the posed shots or the candids. The strained smiles, awkwardness, and snapshot-esque "deer in headlights" candids all too common in wedding photos were absent in what we received. Poses were natural and candids--which we requested be the emphasis at the reception--felt truly candid but had that added sparkle that can be brought only by a photographer who knows how to get people to act naturally when the lens is pointed their way. Among the results was the best photo in years of my parents together. And my great aunt and great uncle. And my in-laws. We visited the studio the next day, on Marchetti's request, so that shots could be taken in "good" light. The only thing we couldn't get was a full-length shot of the train of the gown--he's just not set up for that--but what we did get more than makes up for it. I'd expect any professional worthy of that adjective to be able to get these right but Marchetti really made them pop with his control of the lighting and ability to get us to loosen up even during a long session that began (for me) with the awkwardness involved with wearing one's tux at noon. And the icing on the cake: he even had enough good humor to put the digital gadgets and instant checks aside and take a few shots on one of my last rolls of Kodachrome, which were perfectly exposed, bright and luminous with white and black just where they should be, as though he was still shooting film daily for business purposes. To sum it up: for an event or wedding photographer (and he isn't even an "Event Photographer" or "Wediing Photographer") Chris Marchetti is far above average. If our experience is representative--and his portfolio makes me think it is--a customer can count on him to deliver relaxed, natural poses and candids, even under technically difficult conditions.

We were sent the proofs in an email stating "just look at the people we can fix the surroundings". Went in to hopefully view and order a worked photo and then the horrendous price gouging start. For every click of the mouse! The pictures were still horrible! I said I would discuss it with my family and get back to them. The 2 days later I said we weren't interested and was told the work was completed, on the way to the printer and my credit card would be charged! THEN a week later I was sent an email stating they couldn't proceed without consent! When I spoke directly the "friendly" couples true colors came out! I was stuck! Not only was I charged over $600.00 for the sitting, 1 8x10 and a canvas (which I could have ordered off Shutterfly for less than $100) I received these 2 items 2 months later and a month past the holiday, and that was only after multiple phone calls and emails that were not returned! Thankfully my family members picked up on the unprofessional prints and attitude and found another photographer who not only was half the price, but had all our photos done and even our Christmas cards made to send out before Christmas! Praise God there are still some good,honest people. Not A portrait by J!

Be very careful in scheduling; despite planning this more than a month in advance and providing exact Google coordinates to our location, explaining it was in the middle of the Prescott National Forest. I provided these coordinates 10/4 for our session on 11/26. They not only changed our time from 2pm to 3pm, (I found out in the voicemail to confirm the day before), but showed up about 20 minutes late because they could not find us. They claim it is a campsite; it is not. It is an established road with other residences along the same road. As they say, people who are 30-year residents of Prescott should have no issue navigating the aforementioned roads. Be sure you are on the same page with fees and products as well because I clarified pricing on the phone during booking, yet was shocked when told after taking our photos that the fee paid provides no actual product. That would be another $425 for copyright photos on a CD. As we are not a business and will not profit off of these photos, we just want them for a holiday card and to hang on our own wall, I asked about personal use and why we would not get the digitals from the shoot. They maintain that there is no difference with copyright and personal use. I called to discuss all of this and come to some agreement with Terry Lynn, who went from condescending to downright nasty. What really set her off was me eventually stating that this was like a bait and switch situation. My father, involved in the photos, then tried emailing Jay and got a snarky reply. Both are also admitting to incorrectly charging us for the session due to the number of people involved and insinuating I misled them with the quantity, despite the detailed notes I gave them in planning this (which included the number of humans and dogs - I was very up front). Somehow, since they made a mistake and did not charge a full reunion fee, just a family session fee, we should be thankful for that even though our session was cut short and we got no photos from it. Their behavior did not sit well with me and I filed a consumer affairs complaint. Given the limited character field, I gave a high-level summary of the issues and noted to see attached supporting documentation. That supporting documentation included the notes I wrote while scheduling the session, the notes I wrote immediately after hanging up the phone with Terry Lynn, the email my father sent, and the response from Jay. In response to my complaint, they essentially just attack my character and mental capacity, try to call our location a campsite, blame me for giving bad directions (as if they did not have weeks to look at Google Maps and call me with any questions), and lied that I called multiple times, calling me "unhinged." I called them once. I believe it required a call-back to be able to chat, so perhaps a call log will show more than 1 call, but I called and had ONE conversation with Terry Lynn, who got so angry with me pointing out the misleading information that she hung up the phone.... but I am the one who is unhinged. The last bit of their reply to the complaint outlines the discount we got for our photography session, which details all of the errors they made in initially charging me. The only thing I will agree with on his math is that they did not charge me for the extra subgroups we did. I assumed this was just good customer service and a nice thing to do considering they were 20 minutes late and my father and FIL even helped them clean up to their next appointment on time. These additional subgroups were like these 2 people walk into the pose now, or these 2 people leave - it was not 8 unique setups in 8 different locations on-site. We had 2 locations and rotated a few people in or out.
