YEAR END STUDIO PHOTOS

We went for a family studio photos taking session and I managed to take some with my lover. It is our engagement photo.



They really sucked you so dry. Imagine developing a 4R photo for RM8 and you have no negative / source file for yourself. In other words, you can only return to the same place and everytime you have to develop 4R for RM8 and more for bigger sizes. The photos taken were not so impressive at all. In addition, they charged expensive fees for make-up and hair styling and yet they give you amateurs who did lousy jobs.

I will never go back to this place again to take anymore photos. They also photoshop you heavily without asking your permission. We ended up wasting money developing expensive photos because the samples they give us to choose are like passport size photos. For example they modify your teeth and mouth to the extent that you don't look like yourself anymore.

Bridal at Pedada Road, Sibu, Sarawak opposite Sacred Heart Secondary School just in case you want to know who they are. They also take almost a week for samples to be out for you to choose and another many few days to develop. They use Nikon digital SLR and they can't even preview it to us on the spot to choose. I don't understand why. Probably they rely too much on Photoshop until they won't want to show us the shots taken right away. When I was in Kota Kinabalu to take studio photos, I get the photos reviewed to me straight away to choose to print. On top of that, they allow you to take shots as well while they are taking. They even burn you a whole CDR for all the shots taken that day.

Finally, about frames. They charge you RM40 for a frame when I can get the same one from the frame making shop for RM25. I was even more furious to find out that actually they send all the photos to the same place to make frames. Now, talk about total cut throat.
