Paparazzi Studio London is a complete joke!!! After being there once they called me back to invite for another photoshoot with a FREE PICTURE of my choice. I didn't have good experience with them from the first visit but I agreed on the second one as I was tempted by a free picture. I arrived there with my friend at 12:00 and we finished at 8pm!!! We had to wait ages to be served!! The studio looks awful, it's cold inside and it smells. What is more we did not get our free picture as we were promised!!! They wanted £70 per picture??!!! We waisted the whole day!!! I don't recommend to anyone!!! They just want to get as much money from people as possible not caring about customers!!!
LIARS!!!! NEVER AGAIN!!!

AVOID THE PLACE!!! It's a scam. They take deposit that only refund if you finish the whole process (over 5 hours)
The mini facial was a 2 m miniature facial! (just cleaning lotion and hot cloth) !! Place overcrowded and too hot. The make up was done in less than 15 m and so was the hair. So much for pampering!!!
At the beginning they made you sign a consent giving them total rights over your photos and they can do anything they want with them and use them as they please.
Before going to the photo session we left. We were lucky we read some reviews while waiting. Our loss wasn't too bad in comparison with the many many others naive woman on there.
I repeat, avoid that hole. Don't fool yourself. If something sound too good to be true, normally IT IS!

I was conned by them - they phoned me, told me I won a competition, and to secure my booking I needed to pay a deposit. At the time of phone conversation, it wasn't made 100% clear that deposit was non-refundable and appointments cannot be cancelled. I wasn't 100% sure about it but paid deposit thinking I'd want to try it anyway. Then next day I changed my mind after reading some bad reviews; I phoned them up to cancel the app and they won't let me! I told them I know I won't get my deposit back, but I wanted my app to be removed from their book so if someone else wants that time they can have it. All I got was dumb replies of 'but you have the appointment'.
They are shambles. I regret the fact they have my phone number and address.

Beware of Studio London!!! My friend and I were recently told we had "won" a free makeover and photo session. When we arrived there were at least 20 or 30 other girls waiting, which should have raised alarm bells. At first it all seemed very nice, we were offered bucks fizz, had our make-up and haird done before being taken down for photos. The problems began when we came back to rooms a few doors down to look at our photos. Before seeing the photos they encouraged us to drink lots more bucks fizz and kept us waiting for 1 hour. When we finally got to see our photos we were presented with a very hard nosed sales women. She pushed us both incredibly hard to buy the photos. After much pressure my friend agreed to pay £100 a month for 12 months to get a CD of photos, 20 pictures and a wall hanging. Which seems incredible now but at the time we were so worn down it didn't seem quite so bad. Afterwards we looked on the internet and found another posting where a lady said she paid only £45 for 4 photos and a CD. We were clearly taken for a ride but as my friend had signed a contract there was nothing she could do. Please, please don't go to Studio London.
