She's incredibly patient, especially with the kids, and somehow always knows exactly how to get them to relax, have fun, and give those genuine smiles that can be so hard to capture. What really stands out is how effortless she makes everything feel. She brings such a calm, positive energy that puts everyone at ease, and it truly shows in the photos. She also shares sneak peeks and asks for your input along the way, which makes you feel involved in the whole process and confident you'll love the final results. The moments she captures don't feel staged, they feel real, natural, and full of personality. The final images are always beautiful and something we'll treasure forever. If you're looking for a family photographer who is talented, reliable, and amazing with kids, we highly recommend her.

Visited here to take birthday photos! Though, it's the perfect self-portrait studio to capture any…read moreoccasion. Parking: They're located in a medium sized plaza with high foot traffic. The parking lot is consistently busy, so finding a spot can be a hit or miss. Ambiance/Environment: The studio is located inside the AR Gallery. Once you enter the AR Gallery, you'll see the studio on your right. They have an extremely small space with two rooms. One room features white walls, and the other room features colored backgrounds. There's many props from headbands and hats to chairs and stools and more! Some props can use a cleaning, but you can't really see it in the photos. Service: I decided to do a walk-in, so I didn't book an appointment or prepay online. They only take walk-ins starting at 11:30. They're not busy on weekdays but busier during the weekends. I completely forgot his name, but the worker that checked me in was nice, efficient, and knowledgable about the offerings. They provide a large screen with gridlines, lighting, and a small remote. They'll give you a timer, so you'll know exactly how much time you have left during your session. Studio Session & Photos: I chose the 5 minute session with the colored background. You'd choose two colors out of five options. Since I chose the colored walls, let the worker know when you're ready to switch colors. They'll pause the timer, switch the background, and continue the timer. The small remote is easy to hide in the photos. The lighting is perfect, and the photos came out amazing! Pricing: All details and prices are on their website. It's easy to book an appointment online. Since my birthday was three days away, the worker gave me a 10% discount. They also offer other discounts. All details are listed on their website. Highly recommend this studio!

Did I mention that the total cost came out to less than half of what photogram would've costed? We will be back !!

Lauren Studios is a rip-off!…read more I am a UC Berkeley student. The studio states in its emails that the fee ranges from $15 to $35, but that only covers the photo-taking service--and the service itself was poor. The photographer arrived late and then shifted the blame to UC Berkeley staff for not opening the door on time. The most frustrating part is that I cannot receive a copy of the photos unless I pay an additional exorbitant fee. A reputable business would clearly explain its pricing upfront. This studio, however, avoids providing adequate information to students and charges them in a misleading manner.
