I was delighted with the final images (and very surprised at how many great shots I had to choose from despite 3 strong willed children who I don't recall being still or looking at the camera for a second!!). Final images were ready quickly and I didn't feel under pressure to buy more than I could afford. read less

Michael and Marcin are very professional, and both very, VERY patient, which we truly appreciate, especially as both during the photos and viewing sessions, our baby was either fussy and/or hungry all the time :) In the end we opted for one of their digital packages - and the price was very much worth every penny, given the high level of professionalism throughout the process and the excellent quality of the pictures. The pictures turned out to be so beautiful, they are simply perfect for us to share with our beloved friends and family abroad who can't meet the baby just yet because of the pandemic. Also special mention - I particularly appreciated them letting us stay around the café for over an hour while I breastfed the baby comfortably - even though it means they had to stick around and keep the café open just for us. We definitely want to return and would highly recommend to anyone looking for high-calibre photographs! Thank you, Michael and Marcin :) read less
