We had such a great experience! We booked a one-hour session with our pups, and it was the perfect amount of time. I loved that the studio is completely private, so you can take your time and capture photos without feeling rushed. They provide the cutest props, making it easy to get creative and take adorable pictures. The space was spotless, and the staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our visit. I would absolutely come back and highly recommend it--10/10! One tip: if you're bringing your pup, bring an extra person to help keep them focused while you snap the photos. It makes the experience even easier! read more

Had so much fun, and the hour went by really quickly! We booked a 60min session for me and my partner for our maternity photos. We're both introverts so having a private place to take photos the way we wanted to was really nice! Cant wait to come back with baby in the near future! read more

Really good experience! - we arrived a little late because we were confused on the parking (but they were gracious about that & helped us when we called) - gave us multiple options for background - the studio itself is perfect in size, enough space for 2 people. - lots of props and other accessories (we personally didn't use) - photo quality looks great & staff is so kind - highly recommend!! read more

Momento was very easy to book and loved that it's self serviced at the click of a button (when you're ready). It was my first time doing a self service portrait photography so they made it very easy to use. Lighting and studio had lots of props, stools, and fitting room all just for you and your party. I'd recommend here and would be returning for future shoots. read more

10/10 would recommend. This photo shoot was a birthday gift to myself and with a few popular self photo studio locations close to me I had a hard time narrowing down which one to go to. I eventually picked Momento (the furthest ofor the number of props, chairs, and because the camera was on a rolling cart I could move and I was easily able to manipulate the camera up and down. Holiday was so helpful in getting me set up and ready to go and even gave me a couple of minutes to change before I got started. All in all I had an amazing experience. I felt absolutely beautiful and will definitely be back! I did the 1 hr package and had three outfits changes. Same jeans but different tops and shoes! (These were quick pictures I took of the iPad while deciding which 2 images to get retouched!) read more

The booking process was on their website and was easy! Google Maps might show you the outside of the studio but it's in the plaza with LA Fitness, so there are a lot of parking spots. It's inside the Creation Talent Academy. There isn't a big sign with the name but there is a 1229 sign. You get to get two photos retouched and then one Polaroid printed. I loved that they had an iPad already connected so you could choose your music. I recommend this studio and would come again! read more

Great experience! Really cool photo studios, easy to use and takes great photos. Staff is super nice and we were able to bring our Samoyed!

I went to Momento to take some business headshots and I was pleasantly surprised by the studio. They have a changing corner, big mirror for touchups, many decorations, and even a handful of smart casual/professional clothes for you to wear. Holiday, at the front desk was so sweet and kind. She made my whole process super smooth and explained everything really well! After my experience I'm definitely interested in coming back with my pets! read more

I signed up for the 60 minute full body studio session and I'm so glad I did. I ran late to my appointment, but they were kind enough to let me have the whole hour since no one was booked after me. I can get pretty shy in front of a camera, so it was nice being able to have my own space, play my preferred music to get the vibe going, and just have fun with it! I brought my own props since I had the intention to get photos for my business, but they had fun props you can play around with. After my session was done, I was able to choose two of the best photos I liked to get airbrushed and edited. I LOVEDDDD it and I can't wait to come back. This is a great place to get some self portraits, but also with friends, family, for special occasions or in my case, your business. Thank you Momento! read more

Such a fun experience! Taking professional photos yourself is a lot harder than you think! Haha You're given a clicker and there's a foot pedal that allows you to focus and take pictures for a hands free experience as well! I chose the 15 minutes session initially but was given the option to extend my session! I'm so glad I extended my session because as a newbie, most of my pics were blurry or dark haha. The front desk staff is so sweet and friendly. Parking was easy and I didn't have troubles finding the location. Would definitely come back again! read more

My son needed new photos for his Agency and Momento was the perfect spot to get the photos done. Booking on the website is super convenient. I love that they have an IPad setup so you can have your favorite songs playing while you're doing your phot sessions. Will definitely be back in the future and I highly recommend. read more

My fiancé and I were doing some save the date photos here and it was a great experience! They gave us clear instructions on how to operate the camera and had many props and seating options to choose from. Very clean set-up and excellent customer service. The camera was easy to use and we had some great results. They also do allow pets on Sundays for a fee so they can take part in the experience. Would definitely come back! read more

MOMENTO IS THE PLACE TO GET YOUR PHOTOS TAKEN!! This is a self-portrait photo studio that is well-equipped with high quality cameras, lightings, and props. They are dog-friendly on Sundays! I went for professional headshots and the photos came out CRISP. So worth the investment. The headshot studio has a dressing room as well. (The full body studio was booked, thus I was unable to take a picture of the interior. However, I was informed that it was a very similar set up with a full body backdrop.) Depending on the package, you can get a free color backdrop of your choice. Amber is an angel and a pleasure to work with. The prices seem reasonable and the experience is worthwhile. I want to gatekeep this place, but they deserve all the hype and business. I will be back! Note: It is located in a creative arts studio and in the same plaza as LA Fitness. Parking is decent. read more

First timer at a self portrait studio and Momento made it so easy and memorable, booking was so easy and seamless, the studio was so clean and organized and it was such a great experience doing family photos with a newborn! Can't wait to come back for more photos and hopefully we can include our pup next time! Love that that's an option! Thanks for the experience Momento & we especially appreciated Amber's help! read more

Wanted to take some studio pictures for my son's second birthday invitation and stumbled upon Momento Studio. Not only that it is the first of its kind at the SGV, the service that the staff member gave was top notch. Dealing with a toddler can be tough but she was super helpful and patient. She was really thorough at the explanation of how the studio worked and how the process worked. Check in and the whole process was super seamless as well. I think if you live in the SGV and want the experience without driving to Buena Park or Garden Grove, you should definitely try this place! read more

this is one of my favorite studios in irvine! the thing that sets them apart from other studios is the ability to move the camera around, allowing for pictures to be taken at different heights and lengths. another big plus is the vintage flash! i haven't seen any other studio that has this. it gives the pictures a nice dewy, glowy photo booth style finish. my pictures turned out amazing. the owner is super welcoming and friendly. thank you amber for thoroughly explaining everything and really taking your time with us! we had such a pleasant experience here. i would definitely recommend this studio to my family and friends! :) read more

Amazing experience! Everything you need is provided, which made the process so much easier. All I brought was the dress I wanted to wear.

We had such a wonderful experience at Momento Self Portrait Studio in Arcadia! We booked a 1-hour full-body studio session for our daughter's 3rd birthday, and it turned out to be the perfect way to celebrate. The session was fun, relaxed, and very affordable. The package included two beautifully edited and printed photos, and additional prints were only $5, which felt like a great value. The studio setup was high quality, making it super easy for us to take amazing pictures on our own. the results looked fantastic. The staff were incredibly nice and helpful, guiding us through everything and making the whole experience easy and fun. We left with gorgeous photos we'll treasure, as I decided to add several more prints. I'm total, for under I received hundreds of digital images and 8 professional touched up 5x7 prints which usually costs me $1500+. We'll definitely be coming back--both with friends and for our daughter's birthday every year, and future special occasions. Highly recommend! read more

Our first time at a self-portrait photo studio and the experience was more than we imagined! The studio was set up very well complete with music, props, multiple chairs/stools, and loved that you could adjust the angle of the camera. We brought our senior dog for the session and glad we were able to take some pictures with him. We initially booked for 30 minutes, but felt like we were just starting to get comfortable and a good flow. Luckily we were able to extend our session to a full hour and happy we did! read more

I needed professional full-body photos for my husband, and this place was absolutely amazing! The lighting was perfect, and the entire setup was incredibly easy to use. It was my first time at a self-photo studio, and everything was simple and intuitive. Thirty minutes was more than enough time to capture a variety of shots with different props and poses. The staff walked us through everything and really helped ease any nerves. There's music playing in the room, and you can even choose your own playlist, which made the experience feel relaxed and fun. I highly recommend this studio if you're uncomfortable with traditional photographers or want high-quality photos at a great price. read more

We did the self service 10 minutes headshot on a Saturday morning, it's so easy and convenient. Picture quality is great. We like it a lot.

Such a easy and fun experience! Instructions were given at the very beginning which made it easy to navigate the self-taking camera! For full body, i had my sister stand to the side and click the clicker but it's easy to also hide behind your back or in your hand! read more

Never been to a studio before but was really impressed with the setup and ease of use at this location. We decided to opt for this studio after a relative recommended we could do a mini photoshoot with our own family. The location was a bit tricky to find in the business park but once we got in, the check in and setup process was easy. We definitely spammed the photos and attempted to capture every moment with our baby and toddler, and although it took a bit of time to go through the photos we are really happy to have the chance to look through everything that was taken. Definitely recommended for families! read more

Momento was great easy and simple to work with. Lady was nice and helpful calm and cool environment. Would come again

I really liked how this place used a studio that was all to ourselves and used a self timer to take our photos. We got to be creative with our photos and it wasn't awkward at all. I would definitely come back and take more photos for any special occasions. Staff is also very friendly and welcoming and explained everything throughly. read more
