Harlan Cone - Accurate Media, Accurate Bridal Photography, Accurate Wedding Photography scammed me into providing services as wedding officiant, charged couples, and bounced his check to me. Peoria, Arizona
Harlan Cone tricked me into providing services as an officiant to a wedding couple who had already paid him a flat "fee." He issued me a check AFTER the wedding, asked me to hold it for a few days (which I did), and then when the check bounced, claimed that his account had been compromised so he had closed it. He assured me he had mailed me a replacement check, which of course never arrived. Several calls later, I realize I have been taken.
I am certain that he marked up my fee (which is modest) considerably. My real concern is the wedding couple, who I am afraid will be very unhappy with the quality of the photography that Harlan Cone provided. I am familiar with photography equipment, and I could not help but notice that his seemed unprofessional and low end. I do not Harlan Cone's reprehensible behavior to be associated with my services, which I strive hard to keep first rate.
This man is a black eye to the wedding industry as a whole. He needs to be held accountable for his actions.
