    Answered
    I have on my credit report a debt collector trying to collect debt for the photo group llc for $3,500. First, I was never made aware that this was being sent to a debt collector. I went to have a photo taken that I was told was going to cost $350. I agreed to have my photos taken for this price. After my photos were taken, I was brought to an office where I was told I was so beautiful a d the only person picked that day and I could pay $500 for my photos taken instead of $350 or I could buy a package for $5,000 where they would make a website for me and get me jobs since they knew high up people. I said I could not afford it and only wanted my pictures. I was already paying more than was told, so I would have to use multiple cards. Be told me I could pay with a split card and had me sign a blank signture pad agreeing to the photo and to agree my card could be processed. I signed. I never received my photos, and now I am being charged for even more. My sister was an actual model, so I know this is a scam.

    Absolutely loved my photoshoot at Maps Studio ***! ?? The vibe was just unreal, and the team there totally knows how to make magic happen. I worked with this super talented photographer who just got me. We vibed, and the shots we got were beyond anything I could've hoped for. Seriously, they've got this cool, edgy feel to their studio that just sparks creativity.The photos turned out sick - like, magazine cover-worthy! ?? They've seriously upped my Insta game, and I've been getting so many compliments. The team was super chill, making the whole experience fun and laid back. It didn't even feel like a shoot; more like hanging out with friends who happen to be amazing at capturing your best angles.I'm already planning my next shoot with them because, trust me, they're that good. If you're looking for a place that'll bring your vision to life and make you feel like a star, Maps Studio *** is where it's at. 10/10, would recommend to anyone
