I think, the photos look nice coz the person is pretty. I think it really is a scam. They won't state the hidden details, like stamping the word "SAMPLE" on the front of the photographs which are not chosen. I'm very much disturbed and angry about this, as they had not said this part prior to the paying of deposit. It is unlike my make-over and wedding photos done differently at 3 different studios. Although there were over 200 photos which I did not choose to put in the album, those 3 studios still returned my 'samples' to me in nice condition. This studio really hide all the details and I don't know why NTU, NUS, SIM, MDIS etc keeps giving them the tender. Is it just because they quote the lowest price? Hi there.

I wanted to take one after I grad but was put off by the price. Why spend $$ on a pro studio when I can do it myself? So in the end, I went back to my university and did my own light setup and took my own grad photos hahaha *This is only applicable if you take photos yourself =) I think that graduation photos are a scam!

When we graduate, we have a Convocation Ceremony where we will wear the robe and go on stage to receive our certificates. We can rent or buy the robe and the company that does this will usually throw us offers to take studio portraits. Maybe it's a custom, families will come together to take a proper professional studio family photo. For me, it marks the end point my parents had always wanted me to achieve, so this photo is taken for personal significance. :) I hope that clarifies! Love, Joanne Hi Qing Hui,
