Our Photopia contact wasn’t joking when he said the studio is all about self-expression. Every shot, pose, and outfit was completely our choice (but, of course, the staff still had to guide us on how to use the gear and lighting equipment).

Quality-wise, we’re not moaning. There were no blown-out highlights or blurry snaps, plus the clean backdrops fit our ‘modern and chic’ theme.

We didn’t pay a fortune either. The 20-minute shoot cost less than S$40 (and that’s not per head), which is a steal considering the ‘take unlimited shots’ policy.

The space is also roomy enough for corporate or family shoots. In fact, their packages don’t have a guest limit.

My favourite part? Their Korean makeup/hairstyling deal. Nab this, and Photopia’s stylists will glam you up, which is why it’s my go-to choice for a couple/professional shoot. 

Boy, is it hard to lock in a slot, though. The staff can also be hit or miss.

Smooth and Enjoyable

Had a really good experience 😊 at the selfie studio! The customer service was 👍👍👍 – the staff was super friendly 🌟🌟🌟 and helpful… The package was affordable, and I liked that they offered useful add-on services… Everything was smooth and enjoyable 🥳.

Very Patient and Helpful

It was a really fun experience! The staff on duty… was very patient and helpful. It’s my first time so I didn’t know what to do. Being an awkward and self-conscious person didn’t help, but she was very reassuring. A definite must try!

It’s not hard to identify a photo taken in White Room Studio. For over 16 years, they’ve been producing snaps, usually candid family and corporate pics, best described as ‘fine art.’

You see, the studio is tucked within a 2,400 sqft, 1920-built Peranakan shophouse. As a result, their gallery is filled with photographs that showcase the heritage space’s posh interiors and natural light.

They’re not limited to a single room either. There’s no shortage of concept areas here—think airy balconies and intricately designed European walls.

Unsurprisingly, the rates aren’t exactly light on the wallet.

I’ve also noticed the staff is kind of transactional. Follow-ups or post-shoot checks aren’t really their thing.

On a positive note, it’s hard to deny they’re well-decorated, picking up accolades like the Reader’s Choice Best Photographer Award in 2023.

Kind and Helpful

The White Room Studio always has a beautiful and cozy setup… Justin was very professional and patient, he made us feel at ease and kept our kids happy and entertained… Dan was super kind and helpful during our photo viewing… allowing us to select the most precious moments to bring home.

Worth Every Dollar

I had an amazing photoshoot experience… The studio has an authentic charm… Randy made me feel at ease and got to know my story first… I had so many good photographs that I had to take some time to shortlist… Be prepared to spend a few hundred dollars… but in my view, it was worth every dollar spent.

I’ve always been a fan of studios with makeup lounges, a major reason The Beautybox cracks a spot here. Since 1998, they’ve provided clients with quality photos and professional styling services.

Beyond that, their approach isn’t boxed to one aesthetic; clients are even encouraged to take control of the session and be fully creative. The in-house team simply handles the technical bits, such as lighting adjustments and skin tone matching.

Conceptual or lifestyle shoots can be arranged, too. Their artists can fully customise the space to complement your desired visuals, which means themes like retro or minimalist are fair game.

Clearer rate breakdowns would go a long way, though. Clients have complained about paying more than the expected price due to confusing details.

Their email response could also be quicker and nicer.

Professional

It was my first visit to BeautyBox Studio… Angel patiently walked me through the process and did some light makeup… Photographer Christopher was exceptional—friendly, professional, and clearly experienced… I ended up loving almost every photo he took!

My Photo Was Emailed to Me Speedily

I had to get my passport photo taken… The makeup was done nicely and naturally… photos taken by Chris were done within minutes… I greatly appreciate that my photo was emailed to me speedily so I could quickly submit it.

Photomatic nails the convenience factor. For starters, it’s in Funan Mall, less than 20 minutes from the Singapore CBD.

Pricing is straightforward as well. Based on my previous visits, you just pay a fixed price for 20 to 40 minutes of shoot time, then add S$5 to S$20 for extras like frames or photo strips.

In terms of space, it’s fairly standard if we’re talking Singapore, but there are roomier alternatives. Still, I appreciate their ‘no guest limit’ policy.

Even better, the studio’s backdrops and props are versatile, so there’s no need to bring your own.

One downside, however, is their inconsistent schedule. It’s wise to call before travelling to ensure they’re indeed open.

On top of that, Photomatic doesn’t provide in-house wardrobe and make-up assistance (make up artists singapore), unlike their sister branch, Photopia.

Still, their cheap fees remain a major draw. I’ve taken unlimited shots for as low as S$35.

Enjoyed Our Time

Visited the studio during one of their busiest day… Had a wonderful time there & Nikko assisted us during the printing. His friendliness & assurances made me & my partner really enjoyed our time up till the end!

Every photograph he captured told a story—rich in emotion, detail, and atmosphere. His ability to find the perfect balance of lighting, composition, and timing made every image feel alive and authentic.

Our experience with The Photobooth Singapore was nothing short of delightful from start to finish. We initially booked them for a special event, and what stood out immediately was their professionalism and warmth. The team communicated clearly before the day, guiding us through setup options, photo layouts, and timing with impressive attention to detail. When we arrived, everything was perfectly arranged—organized, well-lit, and inviting.

During the session, the staff made everyone feel comfortable and at ease, even those of us who usually shy away from cameras. Their friendly energy and sense of humor created an atmosphere where genuine smiles came naturally. The photo quality was outstanding—crisp, vibrant, and flattering under every lighting condition. We loved how they captured not just portraits, but candid, joy-filled moments that told the story of the day perfectly.

We left with more than just photos; we left with an experience that felt personal and memorable.

We would happily trust them again for any special occasion.

The team greeted us warmly, taking time to understand the purpose of our session and the kind of look we wanted to achieve. It was clear that they value not only quality photography but also creating a comfortable and personalized experience for every client.

What impressed us most was their attention to detail. Every adjustment—whether it was lighting, pose, or angle—was done thoughtfully and with clear explanation. The photographers had an incredible eye for composition, guiding us naturally without ever making the shoot feel stiff or rehearsed. Their ability to balance artistry with authenticity made a huge difference; the photos captured not just how we looked, but how we felt in that moment.

The turnaround time was prompt, and the final images exceeded our expectations. Each photo had a refined, timeless quality, reflecting the team’s technical expertise and creative sensibility. Even the post-production work felt subtle and tasteful, enhancing rather than overediting.

We left the studio feeling valued, inspired, and excited to share the results. Zainal & Zainal isn’t just a photo studio—they’re storytellers who capture moments with heart and precision.

Our experience with UnderTheStars Photography wedding photography was nothing short of magical. From our very first meeting, the team made us feel completely at ease. They took time to learn about us—our story, our style, and the moments that mattered most. That genuine interest set the tone for everything that followed. On the wedding day, they were calm, professional, and wonderfully unobtrusive, capturing every emotion without ever making us feel posed or pressured.

What truly stood out was their eye for storytelling. Each photo felt natural yet artfully composed, reflecting the real emotion of the day—the laughter, the quiet glances, the energy of our guests. The lighting and composition were beautiful without feeling staged; it was as if they managed to freeze time in the most honest way. We especially loved how they caught the small, fleeting moments we didn’t even realize were happening until we saw the photos later.

The post-wedding experience was just as thoughtful. The gallery was beautifully curated, and the delivery was prompt and well-organized. Every image had a warmth and depth that reminded us exactly how we felt that day. It’s clear that UnderTheStars Photography takes great pride in both their artistry and their relationships with clients.

We recently had the opportunity to shoot at StratStudio by Stratgeist, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. The moment we stepped into the studio, we were struck by its clean, modern design and the professional yet relaxed atmosphere. The space is thoughtfully equipped—with versatile lighting setups, a wide range of backdrops, and all the small touches that make a shoot run smoothly. Whether for portraits, products, or creative campaigns, it’s clear that StratStudio was built with both photographers and clients in mind.

What really stood out was the team behind the space. They were attentive, friendly, and always ready to assist—helping us adjust equipment, offering creative input when asked, and making sure everything stayed on schedule. Their professionalism made the entire session flow effortlessly, allowing us to focus fully on the creative process. We also appreciated how flexible they were with our needs, accommodating last-minute changes without any fuss.

The results spoke for themselves. The lighting was impeccable, and the setup made it easy to capture images that looked polished straight out of the camera. It’s rare to find a studio that balances technical excellence with such a comfortable and collaborative environment. StratStudio by Stratgeist is more than just a rental space—it’s a creative hub where ideas come to life with ease and style. We left not only with great photos but also with a strong desire to return for our next project.

If you’re organising a larger shoot, Firefly is probably the strongest option here. They’ve been capturing wedding, corporate, and family photos since 2012.

Having prominent clients, such as Friso, M1, and Cordlife, also enhances their credibility. On the other hand, that means they might not be the best choice for those seeking a quick 20 to 30-minute appointment.

The upside? Firefly’s packages remain within Singapore’s average prices, with the popular family package starting at just S$328. Each option includes unlimited photos, typically lasting between 1 and 2 hours.

Our interviewees, especially parents, also highlighted their staff’s fun energy, which often makes longer shoots feel more relaxed, even for babies.

Regarding turnaround times, there can be some delays. We’ve heard reports of delays stretching to a month or more.

The good news is that they do offer instant and mobile photo printing booths, though they’re not cheap.
