Amazing experience at Vanity Studios

The whole experience from start to finish was amazing. We had a very friendly welcome when we arrived and given clear instructions. We were offered complimentary drinks on arrival and there was an array of snacks available to choose from. The make up artist and hair stylist were very professional and we had a nice chat while they worked. We were offered numerous top up of drinks and checked on to make sure we were ok. We had the lovely Erica as our photographer who made us feel comfortable and beautiful. She gave great direction for poses and sets. It was a beautiful experience. Then we met the lovely Sienna or Sierra the beautiful lady who showed us our images and made choosing our images fun and easy.

Danny Photoshoot

I went for a shoot with danny for a confidence boost after never having been photographed and it has been so amazing to see the pictures. Danny made me feel very comfortable and i feel quite emotional looking at the images and realising that is me!

What a fantastic experience

What a fantastic experience! We were greeted with refreshments, had our hair styled and nails painted, and were treated to an expert makeover. Our photographer, Matteo, was professional and made the photo shoot fun and memorable for our family. Siobhan spent time showing us the images at the end of the session and helped us select our favourites. Thank you to the team for making our day special.

We had a fantastic experience with Vanity Studios for our family photoshoot. I went with my husband and our 3 month old baby and felt completely at ease from start to finish. The team was incredibly patient, friendly, and professional, which made a huge difference with such a young baby.
We took two family photos (one Christmas-themed and one normal), one baby photo, and one professional photo, and we were really impressed with how each shot turned out. The quality, lighting, and attention to detail were excellent. We’re absolutely delighted with the results and now have beautiful memories captured that we’ll cherish forever. Highly recommend Vanity Studios for family and baby photoshoots! We will be back! ❤️

Professional

The process throughout was very professional and easy to follow, which reflected in the quality of photos taken. Overall, I was very impressed. The only downside is that I had to wait an hour due to time being allotted for female hair and makeup for the guest. I updated this over the phone, but this didn't seem to follow through.

The experience was great for my…l

The experience was great for my daughter, she enjoyed being pampered. The people were lovely, and they offered you a hot or cold drink , alcohol or non alcoholic, and a snack if you wanted it . The only negative was we were told 11:45 to start at 12 but we was delayed by 1 hour , which was hard as we need to catch the train home at a certain time , and because of this we was slightly rushed when selecting photos .
But overall we we happy 😃

Loved the studio and would recommend any day!

I arrived and the studio was already very clean and well organized. Everyone on set was a joy to work with and made everyone feel confident and comfortable. I received honest feedback on my pictures and left with a great set of shots! I look forward to working with the vanity studios again.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with this photoshoot for my baby’s first birthday. The photographer was amazing—so patient, kind, and great with my baby. He even helped me carry the buggy upstairs, which was such a thoughtful gesture and really appreciated.

The makeup and hair artists were both lovely and made me feel comfortable and confident, and I was so happy with how I looked in the photos. From start to finish, the whole experience was smooth, relaxed, and enjoyable.

I’m so pleased with everything and would happily do it again. Highly recommended!

The perfect gift

A lovely experience for my daughter and me. Staff were friendly and professional. The photographer was excellent and made my daughter feel at ease. Beautiful images!
The only way the experience could be improved would be to have allowed us to choose one of the photos of both of us as one of those included in the package - I don’t understand why we couldn’t when we booked a ‘mother and daughter’ package.

Better than I imagined

I finally had a look that made me feel like me but stunning, would absolutely recommend for dark skin women as all of thire stylist and makeup artist are fully trained or have over 10 years experience.

My feelings are mixed

I enjoyed my time here, the staff were warm and welcoming, and the photographer made the whole process feel easy and relaxed. The photos themselves turned out beautifully, and I felt comfortable throughout the shoot.

That said, I was surprised by the hidden fees, which changed the overall feel of the experience. I was also promised an additional image for leaving a review, but my follow-up emails went unanswered. While the quality of the photos is lovely, the pricing makes it hard to recommend unless you’re prepared to spend quite a bit.

My feelings are mixed: I left feeling both happy and disappointed.

A Great FUN day

Everyone at the Studio made it a FUN day!!! The women who painted my nails, did my hair and my make-up produced a "movie-star" look. The photographer, Bernardo, was a delight and the photos were great! (A bit pricey yet no regrets!)
