My sisters and had our old timey photos and had a wonderful time. Charlie and Mikala were very professional and so much fun. Photos turned out perfect.

Great experience! I recently had family in from California and wanted to get a old photo done with them. I live rather close to branson and have had tons of them done but never with this company. we decided to give them a try, and i am so glad that we did!! We had a group of 9 and i was impressed at how quickly we were able to get in and out. The girls who worked there were very friendly and helpful during the whole process. I will definately be coming back!

"Terrible photos and service" should be their name! We got a Groupon and went in. The person who greeted us (Amber) said the price for digital images varies and she couldn't tell us, but our photographer could. That should have been a big red flag! The shoot seemed to go most fine, then the "photographer" Chelsea took us to view the images. Out of 28, more than half were blurry. She told us she could sharpen them, then had to ask a co-worker how. She did so much my jaw line was little squares. Then she tried to sell us a digital package for $215 when there were only 10 decent photos I'd want. She said we'd save money because we'd get all 28. I said most were terrible, she said to print the ones we liked would be more. I pointed out 10x $15 is $150. I decided against getting the ones I would want and definitely against the digital package. I asked for the manager info and she said there are two named Nikki. So? I got a number for one. She finished with, "we're not the manager and prices are fixed." Really? Then why did the couple in front of us get charged more? Avoid at all costs!

Update: I received a call from the manager Nikki who stated that the owner, Trent, wants to avoid negative reviews and she could sell me the digital images for half price, $107.50. If you want to avoid negative reviews, hire competent and customer focused staff and don't fleece your customers. We'll get our photos done elsewhere, where they provide up-front pricing and friendly, competent staff. The whole reason we chose this studio over all of the other Groupons for the same price was an online review (on another site) that claimed they had good prices for digital images. This was clearly done by one of the staff there. I want to be certain no-one else makes this same mistake after reading this review.

I find it interesting that a review on Yelp by Autumn mentions yet another price for the digital images just over a month ago. They seem to make up the prices as they go at this store, which was the 3224 W 76 Country Blvd location in Branson.
