She is unobtrusive and obtains some of the best candid shots in this way.

I specialise in location-based, reportage-style documentary photography, using an unobtrusive approach to achieve honest yet flattering shots, which capture the best aspects of people's true characters. The genres I cover are wide-ranging: from gigs, special events, festivals, hand-fasting ceremonies, landscapes, nature, and architecture. I have a great deal of experience of shooting stills in theatres, and on film, television and video sets. I am well versed in location and studio-based filming protocol, having spent a year as the resident photographer for an independent film production company . I also carry out a great deal of informal portraiture work, which entails shooting natural, unposed images of people in their own environment, rather than the sometimes tense setting of a studio.

That's all anyone could reasonably ask for from somewhere offering a passport photo, in my opinion. But, that is not all Invicta Studio does, oh no! They also vend a range of well-priced electronic goods such as mobile phones. These are good for calling your freinds and family with, and they are cordless, so you can walk around the street using them. They also have a function called 'texting', which is a bit like sending a telegram, but it happens instantly. God knows how it all works. Finally, Invicta sell.... model London buses.... in Manchester.... Thus, if you are coming to the UK as a tourist, and you don't want to go to London, but you want to pretend to all your friends that you have been there, you can come to Manchester and buy one of these as 'proof'. Strange shop, not sure what the logic behind it is, but it seems to be working, so fair play to it I say.

These guys give you great quality photos, also edited for any occasion which doubles up as a great idea for gifts and memories. Its location and service, makes it a great photo studio!

Jessops in Manchester is located at the end of Market Street, near enough opposite two large stores…read morein Debenhams and Primark, although this store is dwarfed by both of them, it is still quite a large store, over three floors. After passing Jessops on countless occasions as a frequent visitor to the city centre of Manchester, I thought I'd call in today to take a quick look around the store, especially with it recently re-opening after the refurbishment. The digital photo printing machines were okay, they still were slightly old and didn't stand out, they didn't seem as posh, vibrant and up to date, they just lacked, which one wouldn't expect from a store of this kind. The staff seemed a little too helpful, which was annoying, there was too many staff and they all seemed overally enthusiastic even when one member of staff had asked if I could help, someone else did, which I can't understand, it felt like the staff were trying to out-do each other and trying to run a pool out of which one the customers prefer. There is a small lift and staircase connecting the floors, however, i remained on the ground floor, the ground floor was slightly small and I would have preferred everything to be on one floor for ease. There was a small, decent range of cameras, I'm not a photographer and with my excellent camera on my Iphone 7 Plus, which is amazing the photos it can capture, I sadly don't feel the need for this expensive equipment with my phone but obviously there is a small market for it now, it is actually ironic Apple often use the space above this store and Market Street to advertise their phones and products including the camera. Overall, slightly frustrating service and other issues mentioned, I sadly feel this branch of Jessops only warrants a slightly generous two star rating.

I chose New ID for a couple of reasons. I was recommended to them by a friend of a friend when I…read moredecided that I wanted a total make over before my wedding and secondly because I really liked their website and it really inspired me to go ahead and book. I have read a few reviews that go on about how much the prints or negatives on CD cost but I didn't find it prohibitively expensive because there are so many different options to choose from, you can get a 5 x 7 for only 50 pounds and then anything up to 20 x 24 or you can choose to have them on CD. I chose a 5 x 7 an A4, a 12 x 16 and one big 20 x 24 for my lounge! They also have a great range of frames to choose from, I really liked the Master Collection so also got some prints to go into I it and chose the credit option that costs me less than 20 quid a month, to my mind it is well worth the money looks fantastic on my wall, everybody has admired it so I was really glad that I made the decision to get it. What I was really impressed by was the amazing variety in the picture. The use of the different backgrounds give you so much to choose from. There was a wall so it looked like I was outside in my casual gear, complete with wind machine, there is a sort of circle that I sat in, crouched in and lounged in and each shot had something different and a different look, there are funky backgrounds for your party look, classy chairs, close up shots, extreme close ups, portraits, the diversity of the prints was just amazing and each shot had something unique about it, it was way better than I could ever have imagined. I was really comfortable having the pictures taken as well, I was very worried that I would get hit with nerves but the photographer was great and took it all in his stride and showed me how to stand and how to look and really did get the very best out of me and made me feel like it was the most natural thing in the world to be doing, it was like second nature. The framed pictures only took 2 weeks and four days to arrive, it felt like a lifetime because I was so excited to show them off and they were just as good as I had remembered. I was really happy with my experience, the value and the over all service. I have would have no hesitation in recommending New ID

I thought it would be a fun experience and at the end of the session I could get my free 10x8 photo and that would be it. How wrong I was! Nika and Mat (the owners) were wonderful, they were very welcoming, friendly. We were offered drinks and welcomed into the beautiful studio. The makeup artist was amazing. She was open to any requests and literally made them happen before my eyes. I've never worn so much make up but I looked great and felt great! Zika did my hair with ease, beautiful curls and it just set off my makeup. Then onto the shoot, the photography studio is state of the art. The photographer was a wonderful lady; she made me feel so comfortable. As I said, I don't photograph well and tend to keep out of photos, but she put me at ease. She guided me through lots of different backgrounds and sets and suggested all the poses for me which took the pressure of. She wasn't photo happy taking hundreds of photos; she took one great one of each set. All too soon it was over! Then it was into the viewing room with Mat to view my photos. THEY WERE FANTASTIC! I literally could not believe it was me on the screen. (This was before any editing, this was the raw photo). I instantly knew I wanted them. They were 100% worth the money. You get what you pay for and while it might seem really expensive, getting professionally taken photos, having the expert makeup and hair, lighting and state of the art camera technology costs money. They do a payment plan so you can spread the cost so there's no reason to not go for it! I cannot recommend Wild Ginger Photography highly enough. There services are at the top of the photography level. They've invested in the best equipment and staff to ensure the photos come out perfect. Since then I have had 3 more shoots, one with my partner and our dogs and two with my family. Nika's work just gets better and better. Thank you so much to Nika and Mat.
