The Bride

A special thank you to Noripy, who was professional, friendly, and very patient with us. She took care of all the details, including transportation and lunch, which made the whole experience stress free.We were on a tight schedule with only a short window of time in Korea before our next flight home, but everything was arranged seamlessly.From the beginning, she helped us narrow down the studios based on what we liked, and we ended up choosing Studio Gaeul. It was the perfect choice for us.The team she introduced us to was incredibly welcoming and made us feel comfortable right away. We had the photo shoot during the winter and everyone always made sure we were warm and hydrated.From the photographer and videographer to the dress manager auntie, everyone was amazing and took great care of us.We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Everything was smooth, well organized, and easy from start to finish.

I booked Kohit after researching some studios and Reddit told me that it may be worth it to have a helper to help us navigate the whole thing. I did try to contact some studios directly but their communication was slow. So I browsed Kohit website and was a bit overwhelmed so I decided to contact them. I did try to go directly to the studios but their communication was slow and harder to do in English. I will break my review into parts since there were so many parts and people:Pre-shoot: communication was smooth with Noripy, very informative and patient as she walked me through the process and what I wanted and didn’t want and how to arrange payment. instructions were very detailed on how the process would go and how to prepare. Helper and translator: my helper was Zoie and she messaged me on Whatsapp the day before the shoot with preparation instructions and helped me arrange a last minute shirt since my husband realized the one he brought didn’t fit. She was punctual on the morning of and helped us get a taxi to the studio and later arranged a taxi for us to return to our hotel. She was translating for us with the other staff,bounce between my husband and I as we got ready and communicate photographer instructions as we took pictures. She also helped me carry my shrug as it was chilly when we were outside for photos. I am not fluent in Korean but I can understand a lot due to watching dramas for 20 years. And I feel like by midday when she realized I could handle myself pretty well listening to the dress manager and fumbling my way through some responses, she did slack off a bit instead of actively translating. My husband speaks no Korean and some parts he was confused as to what was happening as a result. Overall though I was glad for her help.Make up and hair: the studio space had a room for makeup and hair with half a dozen chairs. I am darker than koreans and often can’t find my shade and undertone in cushions so i brought my foundation as instructed. My makeup lady said they had my shade and just asked me what I wanted. I didn’t have a preference. I only said I liked warm tones to see what she could do. The make up was done well but my face was definitely paler than normal but that’s just Korean style. They did cover up my acne flareup on my cheek pretty well. However, the base definitely did not hold my shine away and my undereyes were super wrinkly by the 3rd or 4th hour and that does not occur when I do my own makeup. Even with the half day touch-ups, I think the make up does need some work. And as for hair there would be 3 kinds so they asked me what I wanted for each dress change. They suggested I added some hair pieces for extra price to add volume. I agreed since I had fine hair. They blended the hair pieces well and the hair held up pretty much all day and came out amazing on camera. Dresses and suits: the dress manager is the sweetest lady. She would help dress for husband and I, help us move around during the shoot and fix anything out of place during the photos. I would say that you should have extra money for any extras like dresses or suits for the groom that you want to upgrade. There are standard options but I would say those are more limited. My helper did inform me of the extra prices and even steer me away from very expensive options. Alas, I am a picky girl and since this is not my actual pre wedding shoot (I got married several years ago), I went with more color options for myself and my husband picked upgrades for himself too. They do have options for jewelry you can pick from for each outfit and bow ties for men but you can bring your own. My dress manager was super accommodating the entire day, even fixing my hair between photos. I adored her as we communicated by my limited understanding of Korean most of the day. Later on she was so concerned about me being cold for the casual outside shoot, she gave me a shawl as “service” and was fussing over me being barefoot and cold in the studio.Photographer and assistant: my photographer and her assistant/send shooter was also lovely. She was young and quite bubbly, making the shoot comfortable and did amazing. She came in a bit late but got to work asking us what photos we wanted and immediately got to work. It was efficient and she caught some candid moments too. At the outside portion she found seemingly ordinary spots on the street that popped on photos and her assistant was super helpful on catching moments too. I hope over time he gains confidence in his skills too since he was very kind.Post shoot: they said it would take 2 weeks to get photos but we got it in a little over a week. The email also has detailed instructions on how to pick photo and get editing. The photos were amazing quality and there were so many of them, we had a hard time picking. Also, there was little to edit because they were well framed. Overall: I thought the entire experience was positive. My husband also said he thought it was very good and didn’t realize how many moving pieces and people were involved and so it was well worth it. I would totally do it again and the photos will be a great addition to our walls at home.

Thank you Kohit for the wonderful and amazing shooting experience. Our shooting session is at THE BRIDE studio and every corner in this studio is brilliant. The translation service is really helpful to us who need to be guided to get ready the best posture in front of the camera. Our contact Noripy is very responsive and the whole Kohit team is very professional to provide the best service to us. The photos are really pretty. We want to take more photos and don’t want to leave^^ I would definitely recommend Kohit to my friends.

We enjoyed a lot in the shooting day! We would like to express our great gratitude to our interpreter Yuni, photographer and assistant. They were so nice and gave us lots of suggestion and support, that made the shooting smooth and enjoyable. It’s a memorable experience for us. Thank you Kohit Wedding for the entire arrangement and service. The staff always replied promptly for my enquires.

Absolutely fantastic! The entire experience with Kohit Wedding was fantastic. My partner and I eloped and still wanted some special photos to commemorate. From the beginning everything was great! Noripy was patient and provided so much wonderful information as we booked and made decisions. Tammy, our translator, was prompt, friendly, and easy to work with. Our two photographers and other people who helped were all lovey. The location, dresses, hair & makeup were all above and beyond. Thank you to the whole team who made the day special!

We had an amazing experience with Kohit! From the start, their communication was quick and clear, with a straightforward price list and no hidden fees. Noripy was incredibly responsive, and Zoie, our translator, was absolutely fantastic. She reached out to us via WhatsApp as soon as we arrived in Korea, and was punctual, picking us up early from the hotel. She explained everything clearly, making the whole experience easy, stress-free, and warm. The entire team made the photoshoot fun and enjoyable, and we truly had a great time! We highly recommend Kohit for anyone looking for a top-notch prewedding photoshoot!

Amazing experience shooting with Kohit. Day was well planned, shooting process was smooth & professional. Photos turned out beautiful.

I highly recommend Kohit Wedding! The email communication was seamless—Noripy responded quickly and answered all of my questions. We booked Gaeul Studio through Noripy and had a fantastic experience. Hair and makeup were done at the studio, and two ladies assisted with dresses and accessories throughout the shoot. The photographer was excellent, capturing beautiful shots and guiding us with posing. Zoie, our translator, managed all communication with the photographer and studio staff, arranged transportation, and even took care of lunch. We felt completely at ease and well cared for the entire time we were there

I had a wonderful experience with Kohit Wedding! We started the experience with a translator organized by Kohit that took us to the studio. We met with our videographer, photographer, and dressing assistant at the studio. Make-up and hair were done promptly, and everything was very organized! The photos looked absolutely stunning! From start to finish, Kohit made the photoshoot seemless and stressfree. I highly recommend!!

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks for arranging our pre-wedding photoshoot in Seoul. It was truly an amazing experience, and we thoroughly enjoyed every moment. The photographer was exceptionally professional, providing clear and helpful guidance on posing, which made us feel comfortable and confident throughout the shoot. Noripy, who was in charge of Kohit Wedding, was incredibly helpful and responsive, promptly addressing all our questions and concerns with great efficiency via emails. On the day of the photoshoot, Zoie, our translator, took excellent care of us and ensured that everything proceeded smoothly. Her thoughtful assistance contributed greatly to making the entire process seamless and enjoyable. We strongly recommend Kohit Wedding to anyone considering a pre-wedding photoshoot in Seoul. Your team has truly made this special occasion unforgettable for us. Thank you once again for your outstanding service?

From start to finish, everything was a breeze. Definitely no hidden fees. Everything is literally listed in the contract. When I first messaged them for more information, they had responded within an hour. All contact was then done through email, and they have a translator who you can chat with. We had chose a whole day shoot package which was day and night, and we cannot thank them enough. Everyone was tired but our translator, photographer, videographer and stylist had cheered us on throughout the whole day. There were many dresses and suits to choose from and they actually let you choose what backgrounds you want. (which was a huge plus). Also, we can’t wait to see our final video because the photos we received were breathtaking and those are not even edited yet. If you’re looking for a trustworthy place for your pre wedding photoshoot, this is DEFINITELY the place you should go with. You’re assigned you’re only personal crew throughout the whole photoshoot.

We had such a beautiful experience with Kohit Wedding, honestly from the very first message until the end ? The communication was always great, clear, kind, and very reassuring. We never felt confused or stressed because everything was explained patiently and with care. The day of the photoshoot was especially wonderful. It felt calm, well organized, and never rushed. Noripy took care of absolutely everything, which allowed us to relax and truly enjoy the moment. She was incredibly thoughtful and even made sure our vegetarian diet was taken into account during the day, which meant a lot to us and made us feel genuinely cared for. What we appreciated the most was how comfortable we felt throughout the shoot. We’re not used to being in front of the camera, but the atmosphere was so relaxed and friendly that everything felt natural. We were able to enjoy the experience instead of worrying about details ?? This photoshoot was to celebrate our anniversary, and Kohit Wedding helped turn it into a really special memory for us. We’re truly grateful to Noripy and the whole team for their kindness, professionalism, and attention to detail. We would absolutely recommend Kohit Wedding to anyone looking for a stress free, thoughtful, and memorable photoshoot experience ????

Our pre-wedding shoot with KOHIT WEDDING was truly magical. From the moment we booked their services, we knew we were in excellent hands. Noripy was very helpful and responsive throughout the process. We were making a stop for only a few days in Korea, but thanks to Noripy, she was able to set up everything properly for us. Our translator Yuni was also extremely helpful. She was really attentive throughout the process, facilitating seamless communication with the photographer and the studio staff. She also helped us take photos at the side, which captured some of our funny moments during the photoshoot. Besides the photographer from the studio, KOHIT WEDDING has an in-house photographer David who filmed our entire photoshoot experience. He really took the time to understand our preferences, ensuring that every scene reflected our unique love story. His artistic flair and ability to capture the perfect moments made the experience incredibly special. On the day of our photoshoot, we encountered the first snow in Korea. The team’s warm and friendly approach helped us relax and enjoy the process despite the cold and snowy weather. The entire team was professional, creative, and truly passionate about their work. The preliminary images already exceeded our expectations. Each photo beautifully captured the essence of our love in the most enchanting way. We have received countless compliments from friends and family, all thanks to the incredible work of KOHIT WEDDING. Thank you, KOHIT WEDDING for giving us memories that will last a lifetime!

We had a wonderful experience with Kohit for our engagement photos! They made us feel comfortable right away and captured a perfect mix of candid and romantic moments. The photos turned out stunning, and we’ve already received so many compliments from our family. Communication was smooth, the turnaround was quick, and it’s clear they genuinely care about their clients. Highly recommend Kohit!
