Excellent service. Steph & Camila were a great team together. My wife was very happy with her hair & makeup(so was I) & our photo session was a very good time. They made us feel like celebrities lol. You may get a bit blindsided by the pricing but they do offer monthly payments with 0% interest when paid off within 12 months. We will definitely be going back. Highly recommended! More...

The staff in Bridgewater is amazing. I was nervous upon arriving with never doing a photo shoot before, but they were a joy to work with and I LOVED so many photos! Thank you for this great experience More...

TL:DR version. The Bridgewater staff are amazing, the pics were spectacular but you are going to definitely pay much higher prices than you think. But, it's an investment and you will be very happy with the product. You get what you pay for. I would go back if I had the money to.-------------So let's start by saying I was HIGHLY skeptical. And that's putting it nicely. But this story has a very happy ending. For Mothers Day, I wanted portraits of my 4 babies, but I didn't want the kind of canned photography that you get at most commercial places. I had a Groupon for Glamour Shots which essentially took care of sitting fees the photography session and added a small credit towards pictures. Even with this incentive, I almost didn't book the session based on the pretty campy reputation that the chain has. I made the decision to book and then was nervous all the way up to the actual session itself.The booking process itself was fairly straightforward. You can book online but they will call to confirm slot. I did get about eight phone calls between booking and the actual session (annoying), and I actually had to reschedule due to a bad stomach virus, but they were plenty of times to choose from. I'm still not sure if that was good or bad.Day of the shoot comes and we get there a little early. The girls were taken first for their makeovers. The stylist did a really great job with their hair and keeping the make up excessively light. While waiting for everyone to change, the staff kept the kids occupied with coloring pages and I broke out snacks. Each kid was taken separately first for individuals. Everything was going fine, until my toddler decided it was time for a melt down. That's when everything went south. He refused to take pictures, he refused to get in group shots, he refused to do pretty much anything other than play with any toys he felt deserve his attention more.I was pretty upset thinking that I wasn't going to get shots with all the kids in it. I shut the shoot down because I was just too stressed out and now one of my other children started to melt down as well. The manager, Arielle, took charge of everything at that point. While I worked on calming all the kids, she began to work magic with the shots they did get. It took about 25mins to download everything and pick out the 25+ shots that ended up being ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! I sat with my girls to pick pictures and watched their eyes light up when they saw their portraits! But the best part of all was the photographer managed to get a shot of my toddler that was able to be photoshopped into the group shot of the other three! They got me my group shot!!The team at Bridgewater turned the entire experience around which, because of my rambunctious crew was very stressful. The cost was around $600 for 22 pictures, touched up, perfected and electronic. This also included 4 8x10s and 1 10x13 prints. More...

What a great experience!! From the very friendly initial call to schedule my appointment to my checkout the team at GS was awesome! It was easy to schedule an appt and the lady gave me all the information on what to expect.  Essence was a great makeup artist and hair stylist. Loved my makeup!! Jazmin was a lot of fun to work with and she paid great attention to detail - making sure every hair was in place! She made sure I was having fun while delivering beautiful photos :) the checkout process was very organized and Arielle was very patient. It did come to about $70 a pose but they came out beautiful!

This is my first time to have a photoshoot and I have to say, I had a positive experience at this place. This location may have had negative reviews in the past but management has changed. Arielle, Kim and Jamie make an awesome team! They're all very upbeat, friendly, helpful and professional. They put you right at ease. Arielle's a class act. She wasn't pushy like others who dishes out sales talk and intimidates. I didn't feel pressured to make a big purchase. Pressure was coming from me cause photos came out great !!! Yes, it's pricey but you're getting what you pay for. I would buy all if I can afford to but I had to limit myself. I would give it 5 stars if not for affordability. More...

I love this place.  The people are great and their work is fantastic.  I have read all the reviews and there are some things that people just don't understand.  These people that got a Groupon for Glamour have to realize that this is a deal that gets you into the door.  From there they will up sell you.  They are in business to make money and they really can't by having people not spending money.  Now for those that are complaining about the cost of their portraits.  You are getting a make up artist, who is fantastic, and a professional photographer.  If people want to save save money and not get a great service and photo's then go to you local Sears or JcPenny and look at the difference.  The quality will not be there, plus these people are not professionally trained, and there isn't a make up artist to help you look your best.  So what do you want to bring home a picture or a portrait?Keep this in mind when you are looking to create a create a photographic memory or a head shot for the professional; It is better to spend a little more then you had planned then a little less then you should.So ask yourself do you want to bring home a picture or a portrait?

These guys were amazing, friendly, and professional, from the photographer Chris and makeup/hair artist Jessica right up to the owner Cliff. Everyone was genuine and willing to make you feel comfortable and truly cared about. The photographs were true works of art and unlike other places who do similar work, they weren't rigid about the pricing, digital access, or what you can/cannot buy. My wife and I would go back in a heartbeat. Regards, Ryan More...

Read all of the reviews on here and I called to voice my concerns before my appt (which  I haven't done yet) I just want to say that I had a great conversation with the owner. We spoke for almost 20 minutes. He was very nice and listened to my concerns. They have hired a new manager (who I stopped by and met today) he was very nice. Seems as the last manager wasn't running things properly.  I think that's where a lot of the bad review came from.  I think if you were thinking about going to Glamour Shots don't let the past reviews scare you. The owner Cliff was a doll give him a call he will put your concerns to rest. Go in and enjoy getting pampered and having some beautiful pictures taken. Cliff thank you for hearing me out and listening when I had a opinion. The way you handled me (I am tough) shows great character on your part.The new manager (I can't remember his name) was very nice! More...

Came in with a Groupon and was pleasantly surprised. Everyone was very friendly and professional.The makeup artist Kim did a nice job and took our outfits into account as she chose colors to use. She was also flexible and kept asking to make sure I was happy with the result.The manager / photographer Sarvesh was good at making us feel comfortable and coming up with poses. The photos also turned out nice, and I did end up wanting to keep more than one photo, as they kept advertising I would.The groupon came with one 8x10 shot and a DVD slideshow of the low res untouched images, and I purchased one additional image. Definitely worth it! More...

I'm a physician who needed professional photos taken. These guys were absolutely excellent. Rebecca and her co-worker did an amazing job and were not only very professional but also very fun to work with. I wuld highly recommend them without reservations. More...
