Introduction
PHOTO BOOTH We are based in Little Elm, TX and have a studio in Lewisville, TX and provide open air photo booth, green screen booths, and our new roaming booth in the Dallas Fort Worth and surrounding areas. PHOTOGRAPHY We are a husband and wife team offering fine art photography specializing in weddings, families and children. We also offer professional headshots and product photographer. We serve the DFW area and travel nationwide and internationally for destination weddings and honeymoons. About the photographer(s): Ambreen Zaveri - Owner & Photographer When I was a kid I always said I was going to be an artist when I grow up. I carried a Polaroid around all the time and annoyed my parents as I piled up boxes of disposable cameras my parents refused to develop. I bought my first film camera back in 1996 after I was fascinated with photography during an art history class in high school. I took several photography classes in high school and later graduated from Art Institute of Atlanta with a degree in Art and Design which only improved my photography more as I became an expert at digital post production using Photoshop. After years of experience in film and digital photography and post production, I started my business in 2011 and went full-time with it in 2012 after marrying the love of of my life, Shalin Zaveri who is not only my partner in life but also my partner in this business. I am a very energetic and creative person by nature, and absolutely love every minute of what I do. Both my husband and I are active members of both local and national photography associations and have been striving to learn and improve over the years and plan to continue it for years. I love every minute of what I do! I enjoy weddings and events and meeting new people along the way. I think my favorite part about being a photographer is finding lifetime friends in my clients, Im blessed to have worked with some of the sweetest and most friendly clients that come back to me year after year, and business aside a lot of these clients have become great friends. Shalin Zaveri - Owner and Photographer My wife and I have very different backgrounds, unlike her I actually went to school for Information Technology and have been working in the industry for 15+ years. I did however always love photography and the power of freezing time just long enough to have a physical memory for life. Photography was always a hobby for me until my wife started the business and later quit her job to focus on transitioning the business to her full time career. As the business grew I developed more and more interest in photography and started attending workshops with her and learning more and more about lighting techniques and being in the technology industry for so long, I bring strong technical skills to this business where my wife Ambreen brings creativity, art, and technique. This is why we make a great team. We also have 3 additional photographers on staff that work with us as needed.

the experience with this vendor has been nothing short of horrible !! Once the event was over and the money was paid, it has been near impossible to contact Ambreen. it has been almost 4 months after our event and we have not seen any of our pictures other than 8 pictures that were posted on her Facebook. According to her last email they mailed us the USB containing our pictures back in January 2nd 2015 but it is today January 22nd and we still have no seen a package from them. I guess we did not pay enough to cover priority mailing? that would have been probably what...$20? I know for a fact two day delivery with FEDEX for a 2LBS package is less than $30. We have tried contacting them by email, Facebook and telephone with no results. I am recurring to post these reviews online in hopes to get some response and raise awareness about their business practices. Seems like once they got paid they had no interest in fulfilling their end of the contract. I stand by everything I am posting and have no intention of defaming but to provide and honest and true report of our experience. It is very sad to be going thru this since if anything, the photographs are the one thing we should (if we ever get them) be able to see and bring memories back. During the wedding, the food could be bad, the cake could be soggy, the dj could de bad, the venue could not be up to standards...all of that and everyone would forget it...but the pictures...those are your memories to share!! I hope some day we do get this famous USB that has been in the ail for almost a month now. if not, live and learn.

Luigi, we really do not deserve a 1 star review. We came to your wedding as scheduled, worked very hard all day, in fact you couldnt stop telling us how awesome of a job we did and gave us keepsakes and all...and just because your package was late it does not cancel out every thing we did to provide the best customer service possible before and on your wedding. We moved into a brand new house, and the package was damaged and lost due to construction, after hours of frustration on the phone with the post office I reprinted a label and mailed it your way. It was received by you as of January 30th, and you also received your canvas. I humbly request that you please either update or remove these negative reviews as all products and services promised to you in contract have officially been delivered. Thanks!
