What a great experience! What a great photo’s!! We had Konstantina and she is amazing! Easy going, send directly a app back. We loved here and thank you!!! A kindly a for the compagny; they could send a bit more info about the meeting place and for who we need to look out for. Male/female, do they were a shirt of cap to regonize? Etc. The meeting point was at a toeristic place and big café and a lot of people. That gave me a bit of nerves… I needed to ask by myself about any app number from the photographer. The compagny has non. So that was a small advice. But overall we loved it!! And it is a must do! ❤️📷
What wonderful photos! We're absolutely delighted you loved your Smiler experience and especially Konstantina – we'll make sure to pass on your kind words to her! We also really appreciate your feedback about clearer meeting point instructions and photographer identification; we're always looking for ways to improve our service for a smoother start. We're so glad you called it a "must do" and hope to capture more memories for you on another adventure soon!
My daughter and I booked a photo session with Keyhane during our first day in Venice, and unfortunately, the experience did not meet our expectations. Keyhane arrived late, and communication throughout the session was unclear. At times, she seemed rushed, which made what should have been a fun and memorable experience feel more stressful than enjoyable. The most disappointing part came at the end of the session. We had spent the entire shoot walking through Venice’s narrow streets and across several bridges, and when our 30 minutes were up, Keyhane simply told us the session had ended. My daughter and I had shared that this was our first time in Venice and that we had only been there for a couple of hours, but we weren’t given any directions or guidance on how to get back. We were left to find our own way through an unfamiliar part of the city, which was especially stressful as first-time visitors. Smiler’s policy states that photos are delivered within 48 hours. When that timeframe passed, I politely reached out to ask when we could expect them. The photos were delivered shortly afterward, but only after I had to follow up, and the communication during that exchange was not particularly friendly or reassuring. Unfortunately, I was also disappointed with the final photo gallery. While a few of the photos turned out nicely, several included other people in the background who could have been avoided, and one of the photos captured me squinting in a way that looked awkward. I understand that not every image will be perfect, but I expected more careful selection and attention to detail in the final gallery. Overall, this experience fell short because of the combination of lateness, poor communication, lack of guidance during the session, delayed photo delivery, and inconsistent photo quality. I hope this feedback is helpful and leads to a better experience for future guests.
We're truly sorry to hear that your Smiler experience in Venice with Keyhane fell short of expectations. It sounds like several aspects, from the timing and communication during the shoot to the photo delivery and final gallery, added stress to what should have been a joyful memory. This is certainly not the experience we want for our guests, especially first-time visitors in a new city. We'd love to make this right—please reach out to us at support@smiler.co so we can look into this personally.
West of time and money specially when you planned a vacation!! Didn’t expect this no picture clearity my phone get better pictures, no proper style or location in VENICE??? Very disappointed…
We're so sorry to hear your Smiler experience in Venice was disappointing and didn't meet your expectations for clarity or location choices. That's definitely not the memorable experience we aim to provide, and we understand how frustrating that must be when planning a special vacation. We'd love to make this right — please reach out to us at support@smiler.co so we can look into this personally.
We booked a photoshoot with Smiler for our vacation in Venice. The day prior to our scheduled appointment, the provider cancelled. It’s understandable that cancellations may occur on occasion. However, it’s not acceptable that they refused to provide a refund. I was forced to contact GetYourGuide and go though the tedious process (while trying to enjoy my vacation) to request a refund. I would recommend avoiding this company. BTW, this was the second Provider cancellation on my trip. The first one, a bit tour operator, sent a message apologizing for the inconvenience and issued a full refund immediately. So, Smiler just refused to do the right thing and are very unprofessional and unresponsive. Poor Poor Poor!
We're truly sorry to hear about the cancellation of your photoshoot in Venice and the difficulty you experienced with the refund process. That's definitely not the Smiler experience we want for our customers, and we understand how frustrating it must have been to deal with this during your vacation. We'd love to make this right — please reach out to us at support@smiler.co so we can look into this personally. The Smiler Team
