The Perfect Headshot - Austin, Texas

Lawrence R.

I’m not a big review person but it felt necessary to give Yannik some praise for his incredible work. Within about 5-10 minutes of taking photos we already had the shot I wanted, which I’ve attached to this review. He touched the photo up and e-mailed me the final copies not even an hour after we completed the shoot. I got exactly what I wanted. Thank you Yannik for the great experience!

The Perfect Headshot delivered a stunning lesson in how not to run a photography service. Overexposed, unusable images and unacceptable delays defined our experience. Their desperate attempts to patch things up fell flat—we paid for quality, not amateur-hour rejects. The suspiciously perfect reviews here scream paid propaganda. Steer clear and invest in a competent photographer instead.

BEWARE, DID NOT DELIVER ALL SERVICES

Went in for headshots. The experience in the studio with the photographer was fine. He talked a lot about the experience and how he was going to get everything done quick.

After the session, he sent a link to purchase the pictures I liked and he would send the final versions with the retouching/edits in 1-2 days.
They never came, so I texted politely asking for an ETA. He said another day or two. Then nothing.
So I texted again - another excuse.
It’s been 2 weeks now and he’s completely ignored me even after my last message which was a little more direct and communicating my frustration.

I spent $400 including the session + the 2 pictures and now looking back it - I feel scammed out of my money. I don’t know if this is the business or just the photographer but I would urge anyone to go elsewhere or you will regret it.

I’ve also reported the business to the BBB and the Texas Attorney General as this is borderline fraud.

EDIT 12.3 - they responded with a cookie cutter response (copy and paste from others below) - still no reach out from them, no pictures, no anything. And again, this was after the photographer told me pictures would be ready in 1-2 days and I paid $400 in total for the services and the pictures. Still nothing except for run arounds. Horrible, absolutely horrible business practices and I hope others see this and are deterred.

Went in for my husbands headshots - the photographer was a big talker and we trusted him and after we spent a lot of money, crickets when it came to the final pictures.
Reported as well and hopefully other consumers will not fall victim to these scummy practices.

Overall a great experience!
The reason for booking a photoshoot was to update my headshot. My decision was based on the exceptional reviews and Yannik did not disappoint.
The booking process was easy. When I arrived, I was greeted and taken care of immediately. When it was time to take my photo, Yannik took the time to coach and throughout the shoot, he gave positive affirmations of myself. It was a unique but great experience.
The retouched photos came out amazing and made me look natural. I am very pleased with the outcome.

Beware. Had to cancel/reschedule my appointment 4 weeks in advance….
Tried calling and texting and emailing for reschedule and/or refund - no response. I wouldn’t believe these 5 star reviews and from what I have seen will be scheduling elsewhere and seeking to get a refund via my CC company…. As keeping payment for services not rendered is unethical and poor business. Again - beware before you prepay!
