“The company canceled the night before the photoshoot, saying they didn't have a photographer available. This was a huge disappointment as the photoshoot was an anniversary gift for my wife- she bought new clothes and got her hair done for it. I booked this many weeks prior, so they should've been able to figure out scheduling with their photographers well in advance. Also very unprofessional to cancel at 11pm the night before with less than 24 hours notice.”
