Great photo shoot. That is it. It was a birthday present from my wife. We wanted to nice family photos for the home. She told them to keep it a surprise. They constantly emailed me to make an appointment for the shoot, totally spoiling any element of surprise. Then after the shoot, get ready for the pressure sell. Fake discounts etc. though they acknowledged it was my birthday present they pressure sold to my wife because they couldn’t possibly wait until I got back from getting kids an ice cream. These people are vindictive. Their non transparent sale pricing means they build up emotional attachment and then hit you hard so they can get some commission. Ridiculous and horrible experience. So Verve, thanks for spoiling my kids ice cream night, and also my birthday present surprise, pressure selling to my wife, (which I will be reporting to the accc) and generally being the most awful experience I have had for a loooong time!

This place is a big rip-off!!! They charge $350 per digital copy which most others give for free! Also they reduce the resolution you can’t print it out yourself! Quality of photos are awful and very basic retouch ONLY! They chop people’s body in half which is so unprofessional! After sale service is poor, they [ removed name] just ignore us and never responded our emails! NOT RECOMMENDED AT ALL!!!

Our photo session with Cino involved three generations of family members. Cino made a truly memorable experience for us all for the duration of the shoot. In addition to he’s professionalism and fantastic sense of humour, he is amazingly talented and is very passionate about his work as well as his clients experience. I would highly recommend Cino to anyone looking for a great photography experience and amazing photos! Thanks again! GJM

I had an impeccable experience shooting with Cino at the Surrey Hills studio. I was amazed by his creativity and passion and felt like a 'natural' superstar for 1.5 hrs. He tailored the photo shoot to my style and took the time to understand my personality and hobbies to ensure all images could reflect this. This is very commendable and definitely lives up to a photographer's mantra: A picture says 1000 words. Cino is a valuable asset to Verve and would highly recommend him to prospective clients!!
Thanks again for the fabulous photos which I will definitely look fondly upon years to come :)

The experience we had with Verve was great! Our photographer, Cino, was truly wonderful. We were a little nervous at first but Cino was warm, professional, funny, creative and very talented. Going in, Cino had a vision to capture our family as a unit, when I saw the results I could see exactly what he meant by that- it made me quite emotional! He captured it beautifully. Thank you to the team at Surrey Hills, we will treasure our photos forever.

My husband and I had a photoshoot last April 2018 at Surrey Hills and had no idea what to expect. I have to say, the experience absolutely took us by surprise! I cannot describe in words how personal and special it was for the two of us. Our photographer Lawrence is so Incredibly talented. He has created artworks which we absolutely love, they bring me home every time I see them, and we still get comments today at how beautiful they are. Thank you so much to Lawrence and Verve for creating these lifetime pieces of art that captured a moment in time for us!

We had a photoshoot for our 2 month old baby with Cino. He was truly great, very patient, professional and made us feel very comfortable. The photos have come out very nice and we couldn’t ask for anything better than that. Thank you Cino and Verve.
