    Yes, I did have the same experience as Emma (the previous reviewer). Ahhh, they're all out to get…read moreus! Anyways, having been approached by a Venture representative whilst out shopping one day, and given a 'free' photo session voucher and photo package, my family and I decided to book an appointment for my mum's big birthday. I usually *never* stop for these people - they annoy the life out of me - but I was caught unawares this time. I am glad I was though. We booked our appointment and headed to the Lisburn Road for our photo shoot. Since it was my mum's birthday, I had decided to bring copious amounts of balloons. The studio looked like 'Fun House' by the time I was done with it... The photographer was quite possibly one of the charming people I have ever met. Really lovely and friendly. She took numerous photos of us - all together, my sister and I, individual ones, mum and dad, pictures with the balloons (hurrah!)...and boy, was it fun. Pose after pose...every girl's dream really. Even though he didn't let on, my dad had a ball too. We were called back a week or two later to choose our free photo. Which we got. Plus two individual ones of myself and Joanne, which were super expensive, but really quite stunning. The three pictures now take pride of place in our dining room - a cheerful reminder of a delightful evening out. Undoubtedly the best bit of the whole experience was when my mum had a visitor round and brought her into the dining room. The girl glanced at the pictures, instantly asking, "Are those two girls models?" You can imagine my mum's retort. This didn't sway the visitor though. "They should be", affirmed she. Thank you Venture, thank you.

    Just like Colm H has already said. When it comes to whole photograph taking process these guys do…read morego all out. When my family suggested a family portrait I was in despair! I hate things like this! They are always awkward, with pointlessly well dressed people smiling aimlessly in the direction of the camera. But here they do things differently. Encouraged to dress casually, they let us just run around and do what we want whilst they almost documented the whole thing. It was a fantastic experience. The photos turned out fantastically and we really do look like we having lots of fun which gives them a more real feel compared to the usual static images of faces. Being to young to be aware of the cost I'm not sure how much it was, but according to other reviewer who have been in more recent times, it seems reasonable for the service offered. If your going to get something as cheesy as a family photo done, then you might as well enjoy yourself as well!
