This company set up in a kiosk in Deerbrook Mall charges $20 to have you go to a sleezy motel to take "professional photographs". Kiosk manager James Bowman is a manipulative liar and grabs people walking in the mall to sale them a bogus deal.

If you pay the $20 for the 8x10 and to have your hair and makeup professionally done, consider yourself scammed!The person doing the makeover is not a professional.

You will still have to pay for shipping and handling of your 8x10 up to $20. So you are paying $40 for 1 8x10 picture. If you want anything else you will pay $100's more. Be warned; they are scammers!

Don't work here or you will be ripped off. Stand on your feel for hours and hours as a 1099 Contractor (so they don't have to pay you) only to get paid less than minimum wage. James claims you can make $75-$200 but it is a LIE. You will never make anywhere near that and you will wish you wouldn't have stood on your feet for nothing.

DO NOT TRUST James, Melissa or anyone who works for this bogus company. If you make a sale by harassing people in the mall you only keep $15 of it and that is ONLY if it is cash. The remainder is your "turn-in". If you only have credit card sales then you go home empty handed and will never see any money. They don't even have a credit card machine, they write people's credit cacrd information down on anything available and hope it works. That should be illegeal!

Trust me I learned the hard way, something told me not to work for this company but I thought the money sounded good. There is no training, no formalities whatsoever and the turnover rate is astronomical. People walk off this job hourly. 

Run away and FAST!
