Here's a tip: Don't go. When you pay for professional photography it isn't unrealistic to expect a photographer who knows what he's doing, and basic 'photoshopping' capabilities to make the overall experience worth the several hundred dollars. This 'studio' is staffed with some very well-meaning people who have almost no idea whatsoever what they are doing. Any interested amatuer with a flash-strobe and some backdrops from eBay would do better. The 'studio' has no photo editing capability beyond the same basic functions every Windows user has on their PC, no concept of portrait composition, no clue how to deal with young or intractable children, only the barest knowledge of what products they offer, and a tired pile of props is the best thing they can do to try to make up for it. Bless the young ladies working there, they are polite and it isn't their fault they were hired but obviously completely untrained in every way and aren't given any way to do basic correction of photos beyond crop, contrast, brightness, hue etc. It nevertheless is a complete waste of money to go there and I pity anyone else who does. Spend the extra gas and go find a real pro in the city somewhere.
