"This was a wonderful wonderful experience!! If you are even debating going to get your photos done I 100% recommend. We were unsure at first if we wanted to go and did not know how much it would cost but Michael was amazing and worked with us to get an incredible price for the prints and digital photos we wanted! He took the time to style us and loaded us with fun props and decor. He give fantastic suggestions on how to pose and where to look and makes the process very fun and easy. The photos also turned out amazing!! This is a great memory to bring back home after visiting Prague and we would recommend it to anyone!"

"What a nice experience!!! We haven't planned a vintage photoshooting, but on our last day in Prague in July, we passed by this place that caught me and my daughters' attention and the rest is 2 amazing family pictures! The photographer that runs this place is very kind and pleasant, I felt that he's very experienced on what fits to each one of his clients and all of us (family of four) had a lot of fun!! We were very lucky that we found this place by accident, with availability to take us in, just a few hours before our trip ends."
