Cady studios Disappointing and unprofessional Jacksonville Florida Nationwide

 A Cady studios representative came to my school at the end of my junior year to tell us about Cady studios for our senior pictures, he made it sound professionals and amazing and affordable! I live in an area where people don't have much money to fools around with, so when it comes to senior pictures its a big deal. So after much consideration and research on this company, I decided to go with them for my pictures! First of all, you start out by closing from an option of packages ranging from free (required yearbook picture) to 500$ and these packages don't include the pictures, you buy those separately at the end. (which is when you discover the actual price of the pictures) Me and my mom assumed that we would be able to get a disk of all the pictures for maybe 350$ and be done (which an option we had with literally any other photography company) Once we got there we were getting ready for our fist pictures right away, no wait time at all. Which was really good. But as I started getting my pictures taken I noticed that NOBODY had any idea of what they were doing. Nobody seamed to have any proper training and everybody just felt awkward and like they didn't want to be there. So that automatically kills the good feeling you have. Then they were telling me to pose in really awkward positions that made no sense at all! The whole experience was really inspirational, awkward, and just disappointing. I was promised that experienced and educated people would be taking my pictures but I obviously didn't get that. Then why. We came back to look at our pictures they didn't even show us all of them. They picked out whatever pictures they liked and that's what they showed us. And all of my pictures world-renowned for maybe 3 of them were HORRIBLE, the lighting sucked they obviously didn't use the correct setting on the camera, and some of the pictures were taken when I wasn't even ready! Then comes the prices. First of all, you have no rights to any of your pictures. If you want the rights to your pictures you pay a whopping 1,200$ and all that gives you is a FLASHDRIVE with a slideshow of all your pictures.... Really? The cheapest option was 73$ which is ONE print out of ONE picture. And they throw away the rest. They didn't even show me my cap and gown pictures! When. I go back to school my senior year I'm going to let every junior know that Cady studios is a complete rip off with unprofessional people and nobody knows what they are doing. All they are is just a company that takes your money for half assed pictures.
