Our Visit
Today, I visited Anana Studio Seongsu to take ID photos for my companion.
This place is said to be a studio with a special philosophy that not only takes photos, but also captures the customer's emotions and atmosphere.
The studio is located in Seongsu-dong, so it was really great to look around or go shopping nearby before or after the shoot!
The alley where the studio is located is close to the heart of Seongsu, yet relatively quiet, so I was able to visit with an even more comfortable mind.
Enter the building located on the charming alley and go up to the 4th floor.
The first thing that caught my eye as soon as I entered the studio was the interior, which blended exposed concrete, subtle wood, and warm colors.
It’s a space where Seongsu-dong’s unique vintage sensibility and modern vibe coexist naturally, so just being there made me feel emotionally inspired.
My anticipation grew even more as I looked at others' photos included in the 'Glowbag' package, which can be called the signature of this place.
This package is not just simple wrapping; the creator personally put thought into making it, hoping it would be a special gift for each and every customer.
After putting down luggage, the first thing she did was fill out the filming registration form.
Just write down some basic personal information and the email address where you want to receive the retouched photos, then send it to the artist.
Today, she decided to do the 'nana.id', the signature ID photo package at 'Anana Photo Studio'.
The filming application form is also available in English, Japanese, and Chinese, so anyone can fill it out without worrying about the language.
You can get ready in the powder room located on one side of the store before the actual shoot.
From hair-related items to beauty products, most essentials were provided, so there was no problem touching up my makeup.
There was also a changing room next to the powder room.
However, please note that costume rental is not provided, so you will need to prepare your own clothes!
This is the space where we'll be filming today!
The overall atmosphere was neat and organized, and all the necessary lighting and equipment were well prepared, so my expectations were high even before the shoot began.
When taking profile photos or similar pictures, not just ID photos, you could also choose a background.
Also, there are snap photos filled with the artist's unique sensibility on display, so be sure to check them out!
When she sat in the shooting chair, the photographer carefully checked not only her poses but even her hairstyle one by one.
Thanks to this, even those shooting for the first time will be able to relax and approach it naturally :)
The writer led the atmosphere in a cheerful and gentle way, so the shoot went smoothly without any awkwardness.
With just a few shots, she was able to get a natural expression, so she was able to finish the shoot smoothly.
After finishing the shoot, we moved to another spot to select the photos.
You just need to pick one photo to edit with the artist today, but the originals already turned out so well that it was hard to decide which shot to choose.
After you select the photo to edit, the artist will give you a toploader that you can decorate like a photocard,
While the corrections are being made, you can spend time decorating your own unique photo card so you won't get bored.
I’ve been to many photo studios, but it was my first time being able to do DIY card decorating like this, so it felt really fresh!
It was nice to have decorated photocards on display as examples for reference, and there were also various decorating tools like stickers and pens available, so I could enjoy another kind of fun besides just taking photos.
The friend who came with me was also deeply engrossed in decorating while waiting for the photos, and she really seemed to enjoy it :)
I was really impressed by the fact that we could build small memories like this, not just take photos.
This is how we finished decorating the toploader, filled with our group's unique vibe!
There are so many different types of stickers that I liked being able to decorate freely in any style I wanted.
While my group was focused on decorating the photo cards, the photographer was busy editing the photos in the meantime.
They naturally and tastefully made adjustments to match the customer's vibe and image, so I could trust them and wait comfortably without making any special requests.
At Anana Studio Seongsu, you can choose the level of retouching yourself with a 3-step customized correction process.
I really liked that I could choose the level of editing that suits my style, and above all, having a range of options felt like a big advantage.
For your reference, the group chose the second level of editing, which kept a natural look, and they were very satisfied because it was enhanced without being overdone!
After the basic corrections, the artist carefully performed additional editing.
If you have a preferred style, just let them know and they’ll apply it right away. Even without special requests, they naturally edit photos to match each person’s vibe, so there was no need to worry at all :)
After carefully checking the final edited version, I proceeded with printing.
You can receive the edited photos by email on the same day, so you can conveniently check them when you get home.
Even during the cutting process, there were unique differences from other photo studios, which was fascinating,
Of the six photos printed in ID photo size, three were cut like regular ID photos, and the other three were provided as they were in the 'Insaengnecut' style.
It's a minor detail, but I felt a sense of rarity in being able to receive ID photos in such a special way.
Ta-da! Here’s today’s result!
Unlike typical ID photos, it had a much more special and fulfilling feeling because it was captured in a variety of compositions.
I was really satisfied that I could capture so many different moods in just one shoot :)
This isn't the end!
The highlight of the package and the signature of 'Anana Photo Studio' is that it's wrapped in a glow bag,
I felt like I really received a proper gift because you even included the softly glowing light bulb!
Thanks to the pretty and unique package, the photos turned out great no matter where we took them in the studio, so we were even more satisfied :)
This is the edited photo you sent by email!
You can also receive it as a digital file, so it's great for keeping your photos for a long time or conveniently using them whenever you need.
After all the filming was over, the writer handed me a coupon.
It was a coupon that gave you a guaranteed 10% discount on your next visit, and surprisingly, I heard that this coupon can be transferred to anyone!
I was even more touched by the photographer's wish for more people to experience 'Anana Photo Studio' at a reasonable price and their thoughtful attention to even the smallest details :)
So today, I finished taking all the ID photo packages at 'AnanaStudio Seongsu'.
Not only did they handle everything from shooting to retouching to fit the customer's image, but thanks to the cheerful and witty photographer, it was an even more enjoyable experience :)
I highly recommend you try getting a once-in-a-lifetime photo at this place, where they don’t just take pictures but carefully capture your true self!
