Just got their latest pricelist for a newborn shoot- insane prices! 299 AED for each hr of shooting (most photographers have 2-4 hr packages) and it only includes 1 (!) 30cm framed image. If you want digital copies in high res, it's in addition to the shooting costs 720 AED for 1 image (!) and then a staggered pricelist (the more images, the "cheaper" each image gets). 10 picture package is 5000 AED!!! I'm willing to spend good money on a good photographer for newborn shoots, but this is off the charts rip-off...

Our photos came out really cute (was happy with photographer) but it's stupidly expensive! I also find it annoying that they will not give you prints, only digital copies or framed prints (which are ridiculously overpriced). When paying all that money for the digital copy, it would be nice for them to at least give you a print where their printers are properly calibrated so colors/quality are good. Plus, having the extra step of having to go somewhere else to get it printed is silly. We got a framed print from them and I didn't like that their logo is imprinted into the matting of the frame. Not terribly noticeable, but as if I want an advertisement for their studio hanging in my house. Tacky.

I went there with my newborn to use a gift voucher i got from Welcare . the photo shoot went OK , however when i went in for the viewing appointment the photos were not as good as i expected (having seen the albums in their waiting area). they are very expensive (ended up paying 700 on top of the voucher to get 5 medium resolution digital pictures) for no good reason and it will take you three months literally between scheduling an appointment, going for the photo shoot, viewing appointment then finally getting your CD.

we went to them as part of a free mother's day promotional shoot... the shoot went well... very child-friendly staff... the photos were lovely (albeit highly 'retouched')... the viewing experience was lovely as well... dark room, large screen, etc... but in the end we only went with the free photo they gave... coz the cheapest deal was AED 600/- for a low res digital version of the photo... but keep in mind though they often have buy one get one free offers... so you should hang on to making any purchases till then

Shoot went well, nice photographer (young Philipino lady). But when going through the pictures, it felt like a factory. No personal attention or anything. Plus, to buy additional photo's you need to sell your own kid to be able to finance them. Awfully expensive.
