I loved the photo shoot experience so much! It was super fun and Heather coached me how to pose and did all the magic to make the photos turn out absolutely gorgeous. Her motto says she is the photographer bestie you never knew you had and it's really true; I felt like she was an old friend. I think everyone should do this and I might be back for more.

Such a unique and fun experience right here in Chicago! Went for my friend’s bachelorette party and had a blast! There are multiple outfits, shoes, accessories, props and sets to choose from. You can do your own makeup/hair or hire one through Vavoom, and you can bring your own outfits to throw in the mix as well. Heather (owner & photographer) does a great job of making you feel comfortable even if you’re not used to doing photo shoots. She’s upbeat, positive, has creative ideas and helps you pose! And she’s willing to work with your ideas too! Go for it - you’ll feel like a vintage babe for sure ;)
