Foto Gallery

Was called up by a sales person from Foto Gallery to go for a free makeover. Was thinking why not since i am looking for a good studio to make a portfolio and the last time i made a portfolio was when i was 21. Thus i went down to their studio at beach road on wednesday. History of the company: Have 7 bridal shops under the company and they are branching out to do personal and family style photo shoots. The branch at beach road is quite new. Service wise not bad. Went i reached there, they would assign a image consultant to me. This person would follow me throughout the whole process from makeup to choosing of clothes and to the photo shoot. I was given 2 style shoot and in total over 50 shots.

I brought my own clothes, thus didnt use their. The whole thing lasted 2 hrs and after that they are persuading me to buy their package. Actually it sounds quite attractive as its a lifetime membership which includes yrly : 2 makeover, 1family portrait , resume photo shoot, free borrowing of clothes for functions. They also include one time off event shoot (4hrs), one time off ROM and wedding shoot, makeover portfolio albms, photography course and makeup course. What attract me are the yearly offers, ie the makeover, family portrait and update of resume photo. But the package is damn ex! Almost $3k. I said i needed time to consider but they dun allow, saying offer is only for that day only. Thus in the end i didnt take the package..got to save money...cannot anyhow spend. So, i was only given 2 photos out of the 50+ that i have taken. Quiet like the photos and asked if i can just make the portfolio without the package, but they say cannot... :(
