Way over priced! School picture packages need to be re thought by the company. I have lived in many states and had kids in many school this would be the most outrageous prices for what the package is offering that I have come across. For all add ons to automatically be $20 is ridiculous. And to force a minimum of a package to pay for add on isn't fair. I have my child's fall picture that was taken less than a year ago I gave out to family, just want to update his 8x10 without a bunch of pictures I don't need. For other families on a budget this is just not a realistic approach multiple times in a school year.

Critical: Responsiveness I really didn't like my granddaughter's school pictures today when I Seen them And I think they shouldn't tell kids how to smile on the picture

I was so excited to write a review for Hartman Photography but just saddened to see some of the negative responses. As for me and my family's experience during our Easter minis I can honestly say how delighted I was to have such a patient, positive, organized experience. My son was truly terrible and didn't want his photo taken at all. I was internally ( and probably very obvious to others) frustrated as I had been looking forward to this shoot especially since my husband had just gotten back from a long deployment Not only did Mr. Hartman work around my son's temper tantrum but he found time to take organic photos of him playing in dirt and being happy.

He took time to take others' photos but came back and made sure we had some good ones of my son. I have paid double the price with other photogs for 5 edited photos. I got almost 200 pics! Were they all great? no. But, if you would've seen what he was working with you'd understand. I would use them again in a heartbeat

I work at a school where they do school pictures. I do NOT appreciate the fact you think it's more important to take someone's picture than the education of the student. I work one on one with a child and when I got called to take my picture you interrupted my time to have the child to stay on task. Do NOT ever ask for me take another picture!
