After selling low cost photography to budget brides and grooms (amidst mostly complaints judging from review sources), after losing one of their own founders wanting to separate himself from the sinking ship, after trying to sell luxury at a discount by bringing in the "Denis Reggie Experience," after turning off the wedding industry by dispensing terrible wedding planning advice very publicly on the Today Show, after being sold to CPI (photo studio operators for SEARS and Walmart) in 2011... Bella Pictures was finally sold this past December to The Pros. For all of $60,000.
Just in case you wondered what happens to companies like that.

That certification process must have included the ability to hold a camera and press a shutter.
From experience I can say not even that. Send them 30-40 color images, sit on a 45 min group phone call explaining the process of how they work, and you're in
? Wow...that's almost for free.
