She found a great solution for me within minutes and walked me through the process of ordering online. This is a small order folks and yet she took the time to make sure it was done to my satisfaction. Tally Ho Allysa!!

I have purchased many items from Vistek, cameras, lens, flashes, drones etc. I have always found…read morethe staff to be friendly and helpful. And their service has always been exceptional. I had not used my flash for a couple of years, and it would not turn on when new batteries were inserted. I brought the SB 900 to the store, and behold, Martin "The Magician" looked at it, did his stuff, and I walked away with my flash working like it was brand new. A BIG THANK YOU to Martin for doing this for me for free. Your efforts are most appreciated.

I have shopped at Vistek on a number of occasions, buying mostly film and photographic paper. My father-in-law is a regular customer of Vistek Edmonton, but since he lives out of town, so I often go there to pick up his item(s). I love stepping into the store - Vistek Edmonton has an impressive display of cameras and lenses, tripods, studio equipment and of course anything in between. Vistek Edmonton has excellent customer service, very knowledgeable staff and a wide range of service. You have the option of shopping in store but of course online. As I visited the store a number of times, I have spotted a number of items which I'm interested in getting in the near furure!! Definitely a go to store with your photography needs.

All your oicture needs in one place. There is a great collection of greeting cards and random gift ideas from jewelry to teapots! I went in looking for their Accidental Beach t-shirts. I just love that this place sells so many YEG-tastic items. I discovered they also have Accidental Beach caps which was a tough choice for me. I'm looking forward to sporting my new T-shirt :) The owner usually work in there everyday and today I had a great conversation with him - he is really pleasant. I look forward to my next perusal in Vivid Print!

This is a very special photography place in the city. The man who runs it is Randal Kabatoff and…read morewhat he offers is extremely diverse, ranging from the very corporate to the very personal. He is a gifted photographer but also an intuitive creator. I went through an exercise with him for a story I once wrote for a local paper and he created a photo composite based on how I saw myself at the time. We "co-created" the photo through an interview and various photo shoots. In one meeting I jumped on a trampoline in his back yard in my pjs to create a flying effect for a portrait. (I sometimes fly in my dreams over city scapes, and he wanted to capture this in our composite). Back at his studio he combined photographic elements on his computer. He describes the end result as a way of making visible the human spirit which is hidden or lost. It's photography taken to a new level as a tool for self-reflection and possibly healing. Kabatoff does much, much more in his studio. This is one of his passionate side projects. They have mass volumes of stock photos and all sorts of marketing work they do too. His space is also a hub for artists to gather and for workshops.

The best thing I saw here was a little metal compact (2 mirrors inside) with a picture on the cover. It was a super cute couple and I absolutely loved it! These guys can put your pictures onto almost anything so it's a great place to go if you're looking to get a gift for someone. And usually, something like this is pretty unique so it's sure to be a big hit! I think you can get this sort of stuff done for cheaper at Walmart but if you're looking for a more professional store, this is a good one. The woman who I talked to was really friendly and helpful so the staff gets a thumbs up in my books!
