Sessions last up to an hour in a spacious studio with an array of props and backdrops. Photos are put up in a slideshow, followed by a side-by-side comparison, and staff members offer full-service retouching and enhancements. Shotz has a lab on-site, so portraits can be printed in a matter of minutes without an extra fee.

The company also welcomes pets and offers a variety of products and services, including passport photos, corporate headshots, customized photo cards for all occasions, photo restoration, enlargements, prints and photo merchandise. Framing will be offered soon.
