Reviews

Daphne

What an experience, something I would recommend everyone to do once in a lifetime. (Because what self-confidence you gain from this.) As exciting as it was, Justin knew how to put me at ease and create a nice atmosphere. My sister came along for support and what a fun and sociable time we had. But most importantly, the result, so beautiful and special to see yourself again. Together with Justin, we made a beautiful book to give as a present to my partner. Justin is very accessible and enormously helpful. Nothing was too much to ask and everything was possible. He took all the time during the shoot which didn't feel rushed. Before coming to Justin, I had been in contact with other companies offering the same thing. But I clicked with Justin immediately, and the price and quality were also really good.

Justin thank you so much again, for this experience, the result, the beautiful gift and all your efforts around this process.

Definitely 5 stars!
