    We loved gugwa studios! The setup was very flexible and we had this big monitor in front of us so we could see ourselves posing. We also had privacy while shooting so it made us more comfortable and enabled us to enjoy our moment to the fullest. They had very cute props and a range of chairs for us to use freely. The staff were also very nice, helpful, and welcoming. We will definitely come back many times in the future. Thank you gugwa studios!!!

    such a fun experience at Gugwa Studio! My friend and I did the self-portrait session and Soo was so nice and welcoming! Definitely recommend everyone to stop by if you're in Chicago ☺️
