How did we disappoint you and what can we do to make things right?

The process to take pictures right before going up to the altar was not great. My sash was not straight, but the cameraman didn’t warn me that it needed to be fixed for the best look for the moment. Very disappointed.

I didn't receive all the items I ordered. I sent an email to follow-up and NO RESPONSE at all.

I ordered a digital download back on June 8, 2023. Today is June 25, 2023, and I have not received the download. Ridiculous. Especially for a digital download.

I paid but never received my digital photo. All of the photos were taken in about half a second, but yet they cost $100s to buy. We paid so much money to the school to graduate, the LEAST they could do is give us one photo to commemorate the experience for free.

How did we disappoint you and what can we do to make things right?

I ordered a digital download, which I accessed immediately, a "handshake" print and a set of magnets. I received the 5x7 print approximately a week after the order, but the magnets were missing. Emails to the company resulted in responses that were in contradiction to each other. One email said to wait a week and if I had not received the magnets to contact them again. Another email said they would ship separately and arrive 3-5 weeks after the print.
When placing an order, I expect that I will be given information right away about when I will receive the items. I also expect a shipping notification email so that I have an idea of when to expect my items. If items will be shipping separately, that also needs to be noted. I did eventually receive my magnets, and they were of nice quality. But I am very disappointed in the communication both before, during, and after the order.

The printed photos I received looked horrible. Very blurry and the metallic like print is not nice. I spent a lot of money to get really bad quality pictures.

How did we disappoint you and what can we do to make things right?

Overexposed prints and blue hue on other prints that did not resemble the proofs. Reorder prints that have similar exposure and color quality as the proofs

How did we disappoint you and what can we do to make things right?

There was no organization of when our son, or ANY graduate, was going to be presented his degree. There were a TON of recipients and not having a clue as to when he would be walking up on the stage was extremely nerve-wracking. For all the monies we poured into NDSU for his education, a simple LIST OF GRADUATES provided by the school is all that was needed. Is it not possible that highly educated adults could have a solid strategy and plan where ALL parents and families could be prepared BEFORE they got onto the stage?

In addition, the picture taken by the photographer had our son off to one side. All that was needed was ONE PICTURE where he was centered in the picture frame. Why could there not be ONE SELECTION the was centered?

My son walked first in his graduation. There were 5 photos total. None were quality set up. It seemed either the organizers were not prepared to direct them appropriately or the photographers were not prepared
Very disappointing

I had an issue with not receiving my order. I believe the original order of photos was lost in the mail. I reached out to the Grad Team and they resent my order, no problem. They made a pleasant experience possible!

What could we do to improve?

All of the portrait pictures came out well. The ones that didn't not come out well were the actual hooding ones which were disappointing. Overexposed so I did not order from those shots.
I wish I had not ordered the purple background as they made my son look washed out. I wish I had done the plain gray background.

What could we do to improve?

A greater dpi would improve the overall quality of the digital downloads. Also, greater effort should have been made to get photos of each individual graduate as he/she shook the dean's hand. I would have loved to have had a better photo of my son at the moment he received his diploma case and shook the dean's hand, especially since he is the first of his generation to receive any type of college degree; instead, the resulting photo was half-blurry. Also, it would have been nice if someone had ensured that each graduate was adorned with the entirety of his/her particular graduation regalia, etc. before the still photos were taken. Unfortunately, my son's photos were taken without his honors cords, which was incredibly disappointing. That alone screams of a conveyor belt system of photography, which I find inappropriate at best. A great selection of background choices for the still shots would be a vast improvement as well. Overall, the photos will suffice, but I had hoped for better. Hard-earned money was spent for digital images with which I am not entirely pleased. Nobody forced me to purchase the photos, of course, but given the circumstances, there was no other option.
