This is one of the worst studios I have ever used for portraits. The photographers we met the day we were there looked and acted like they were photography students or amateurs! After the cap and gown session we knew we would not purchase any photos from them much less waste our time with the casual photos we wanted for our senior. \r
\r
I'm glad to see they do not have our high school listed for 2010; I have another child graduating in 2011 and would hate to deal with studio again. My guess is the school received enough complaints to realize we didn't need to try another year with them. Any quality, professional studio will offer to take the required photos for the yearbook and forward them to the school without being the designated studio for the yearbook.\r
\r
My hope is we can get our high school to look at this option before my second child graduates. We went to another photographer for the casual picks we wanted and they turned out GREAT! They spent 3 hours outdoors taking various poses and charged me $45 which included (2) 8x10's with that price. At least when my child looks back at the pictures 20 years from now he will see awesome casuals taken at the same time the crappy tux and gap & gown photos were taken. He'll realize he wasn't the problem; Holland was!\r

For those who weren't satisfied with Holland; make sure you share your experiences with your child’s school and help prevent this studio and it's poor work being forced upon future graduates. At a time you could be investing $1000 or more on photos it would be nice to feel it was worth the money!!!\r
Pros: Didn't find one
Cons: Forced to use by High Schools
