Energy Photographic were recommended to us by a friend as good family portrait photographer. They…read morewere totally right. The photo shoot was very relaxed but lots of fun. My daughter didn't want to leave. The photographs are stunning and really captured some gorgeous moments between her and my newborn baby son. One thing we were particularly keen on is that they let you buy the digital images so you aren't restricted in how you use the photos and I could send copies to my family. However having said that the prices of their frames was quite reasonable so we got a couple of those too. I will definately be recommending them to everyone I know.

We found Energy Photographic about 2 years ago when we booked them to take our wedding photographs…read more The photographer, Sean Gannon was great. He was very unobtrusive and friendly. The photos and wedding album were amazing and very natural. We've also just had them take some photos of our newborn baby girl and every time I look at the pictures they make me cry they're so beautiful. The photographer was very relaxed and we felt totally at ease. The prices are also quite reasonable. I can't recommend them enough.

Zzzone Studios can be spotted by their ever changing photographic displays in the window. Some of…read morethem are really very good, and this is what prompted me to take a trip inside. They specialise in family photo shoots, but can do more artistic shots if you are looking for something a bit different. Unlike more established studios, you have to pay for a makeover here which is £49. You do get one photo with this, but I do think its a little steep for just one picture. The quality of the products appear very good, but do expect to pay a little more than most studios.

What can I say other than amazing. From the moment I walked through the door everything was so…read moregood. I was greeted and offered a drink very quickly. We had a nice photoshoot and the photographer (I don't remember the name of the lady) did a fantastic job on our photo session. Then the photo shoot itself was so much fun.Omg! I wanted them all. But because of cost we couldn't buy all of them. Thanks to Zzzone photography for the lovely photos.

You are then offered a drink and you take a seat in the waiting area. You then get to go and take a seat and have your makeup and hair professionally done! the girl I had (kaylee maybe) was beyond amazing with me! She was asking me like what makeup I was comfortable with, giving me her views on what she thinks will work. as she was doing my makeup she was constantly asking me if I was okay and complimenting me. Then we went on to my hair and she Told me what she thought would look nice and work, which I happily agreed with and let her just take the lead. And the outcome of my hair and makeup was amazing! I felt amazing, it was a good start to making me feel more confident for my shoot. and the shoot... wow! My photographer came and got me and took me to the room, she grabbed my things and carried them over. She asked like what outfits I had, how they would work and things and then she basically just worked her magic. She made me feel AMAZING! Constantly saying how good I looked, how the photos were looking and things. I would highly recommend! I've never done anything like this before but it has definitely made me feel more confident about myself and just feel overly incredible! Thank you to everyone!

Brilliant experience and lovely staff…read more. The ONLY reason I've not given 5 stars is the pressure to have 'dad' in the photos when booking, it really should be optional and our choice being our experience. It's not always convenient for 'dad' to be around or may not even be on the scene. Maybe bear this in mind so people don't feel pressured or embarrassed by it. My sister-in-law dropped out of the experience for this reason- having 2 dads to her 4 children, she just wanted one of them yet she was told it wasn't an option. Custom was lost and she was upset that she wasn't given a choice, also felt slightly humiliated. Otherwise you guys are very welcoming and easy to talk to, very happy with our photos too

I have been to Epic Photography twice. This photography company is modern, friendly, and very…read moreprofessional! I was very impressed the first time i saw them at the balloon fiesta at their fantastic stands. They were so friendly and told me everything I wanted to know about their studio, prices, etc...so i decided to give them a go! Their studio is very modern, and the photographers made all my family feel at ease, including dad. They are so good with the kids and always get them to smile! They even took us outside the studio for some photos in the courtyards, using the flowers and anything around it to create some amazing shots. You can tell that they know exactly what to do and how to do it. The photographs at the end are so beautiful and full of life. They got some fantastic shots of my kids. I recommend Epic Photography 100%. These guys are so talented and you will not find a studio like this anywhere else in Bristol.

Martin was able to resolve our problems straight away and knew exactly how the photos needed to be formatted for a Chinese visa. He took our photos there and then, put them in the correct format and even helped us to upload them. Excellent, professional and friendly service at a very reasonable cost. We would certainly go back for any future passport photos.

I absolutely adore this small stall from the covered section of St Nicholas Market. Inside the…read moremodest wooden boxes on Memories stalls sit prints of black and white photographs dating back over 100 years. There are pictures of Bristol's city centre, Bath and everywhere in between to peruse through and mentally compare the difference between the ages. Ranging from £8 to £20 per print (more if you opt for a framed picture) I feel it's a reasonable price to pay to own a copy of local history. I love searching out photographs of places I've worked or lived and seeing what they looked like all those years ago. Nerdy? Or a bit of innocent fun? You decide! It's a great stall to visit whether you're a local or tourist to get a flavour of Bristol in a bygone era.

Want to hop in my time machine...no I'm not Dr Who, I'm just visiting Memories down in St Nick's…read moreMarket. Actually I am Dr Who now get in my box Amy Pond...anyway... I have actually been down to Memories on quite a few occasions to have a look at Bristol over the years; it almost seems so much more beautiful and wonderful. I suppose if you were going to photograph it now on an average weekday you'd probably catch a group of students staggering out of what used to a beautiful building and is now an Aussie theme pub. But all the beautiful old photography is arranged into locations alphabetically e.g. if you're from Clifton, Clutton or Clevedon you can get digging and try and find that photo of your house from the 1860s (as my friend did, he obviously bought that image immediately). The photos usually set you back around £8.00 each, at least they did when I wrote this, unless you want a much larger version of the photo then the costs rise. But I was only half joking about the time machine; looking at the images is like a taking a brilliant tour of Bristol though the ages gone by and as you whizz around Bristol in the the 19th century, you might just learn an awful lot about this beautiful city.

Nobody prints their photos anymore! Apparently Facebook tagging them is enough. But this shop…read moreoffers such a hassle free, friendly service I really should get more than the odd one printed. It's not like it used to be, taking that roll of film out the back of your old camera, literally wearing surgical gloves to avoid finger prints and blocking the sunlight at all costs. Well here at my local printing shop they have those nifty do-it-yourself machines with mini SD slots, or USB ports and even Bluetooth etc. so you don't have to get the whole roll of thirty rubbish photos printed just for that one that came out quite well. The staff are so friendly and helpful and it really is such a cheap, quick and easy process to get your photos printed, in fact there's a cheap Christmas present for Gran sorted. They also offer a canvas wrapping service, where they'll stretch your image over a canvas so you can hang it on your wall.

Consistently kind and friendly, the staff at Kodak Express in Clifton Down Shopping centre have…read morenever failed to disappoint me. They go out of their way to help customers, printing perfect pictures each time - and if they're not perfect, they'll spend that little bit extra time trying to make them perfect. It's quite a small shop, and they stock a large variety of albums and photo frames on the main part of the floor. In the centre of the shop there's two computer hubs, where you can plug in a memory device of some sort and print your photos fast from the machine. Their main focus, though, is the traditional print services of a photographic shop. As I said, I've never been disappointed with the service or quality of the finished product, and I've consistently been impressed with the shop. Definitely give them a go next time you need some holiday snaps developing.
