I'm giving Portrait Innovations three stars because while I was satisfied with our studio experience, I was very disappointed with the quality of their prints. My son was shot on a white background but the print appears anything but white. Better descriptions would be prematurely yellowed with age or dingy. Makes me wonder if they need to work on their lighting or, probably more likely, recalibrate their printer. Even another photo shot against their red-tone hardwood floors seemed to have a lot of extra yellow tones. The next time I need pictures I'll be torn--suffer through a bad studio experience at a big retailer to get better quality prints or deal with dingy prints because at least the child is at smiling!
DON'T GET THE CD!!! We went to Portrait Innovations and spent two hours there with our 2 infants, getting pics taken and choosing ones that we thought were okay. Then, when we wanted to get a CD to make prints at home, they told us we HAD to spend at least $99.95, so we did, happy that we could make as many prints as we wanted ourselves. THE FILES ARE TOO SMALL TO MAKE PRINTS FROM!!! BEWARE PORTRAIT INNOVATIONS!!! THEY RIP YOU OFF!!!
What a fantastic studio! I used to go to another studio to get my children's pictures taken, but after visiting this child-friendly studio I will never go anywhere else.
The photographer was very patient with my kids. She interacted with them and played games to make sure to get natural smiles. Usually, my children do not do well getting pictures taken. However, they had a great time at Portrait Innovations! We had a variety of amazing pictures to choose from! Even the backgrounds and props that I thought I wouldn't like looked amazing in the end.
The studio was very clean and organized. They had a lego table for my kids to play with while my husband and I chose our portaits. It was convenient and everyone could keep an eye on their kids from where they were at the viewing tables.
Honestly, I didn't know what to expect as far as quality portraits, but was pleasantly surprised with the level of professionalism in the final products. The special effects are really great and they offer black and whites at less expense than the average studio. The photographers seemed very experienced with their ideas and with the children. They were very concerned with what I liked and I appreciated their input which was tactfully offered.
