Cinematic Hanbok Photoshoot Experience

Its my 2nd time joining James Bong and Jacob’s activity. They are very warm and welcoming, i got lost and couldnt make it on time for the 12pm photoshoot activity and James asked me to join for the history and hanbok photoshoot session at 1330pm, that was a super nice gesture, so touched. we were a group of 4 and the 1st 30 mins was at their partner store Yes hanbok , i settled for 4hrs rental of their luxury hanbok which included of hairstyling, hanbok and handbag. the photoshoots came out very well with jacob guiding us on the posture. James and Jacob would also talk about the relationship btwn different world empires and link it back to the history of Joseon dynasty where the geongbukgung was centred upon. very fun!! must try!

Had so much fun trying on hanbok and walking through the palace. The place was very busy, but the ladies were very attentive and helped me get fitted into the custom, adjusting it well to my body.

I found this to be a very worthwhile and helpful experience while traveling in Seoul 💖 The photographer was extremely enthusiastic and guided me through every pose, so I didn’t have to worry about not knowing how to pose or feeling shy in front of the camera 🥰🥰 it’s an experience I highly recommend if you want a beautiful set of photos in a traditional style while visiting Seoul 🙇🏻‍♀️✨

Jacob was very friendly and accommodating. He doesn't speak much English but manages to communicate well using Google Translate on his phone. He is very experienced in taking photographs and has a catalog full of poses that is easy to follow with his instructions. He also knows the layout of Gyeongbokgung really well and is able to find pretty spots. Even though the day we booked for our photo shoot was quite rainy, we still managed to make it work. We also managed to get our unedited photos on the same day, with an offer of processing our photos two weeks later. Jacob made our whole experience really comfortable, and we really appreciated it!

This was a great experience! I went with my husband and the palace is of course, absolutely a gorgeous spot for photos. The crew was lovely and very friendly! We had a little bit of a hiccup with our hanbok rental and they were able to accommodate us and provided amazing service. The photos looked great even before the editing, so I can’t wait to see the edited photos! I’ve attached some photos I took from my phone but obviously the professional ones are way better. Thank you to the exception crew and the company! I would definitely book again.

2nd time booking with them. Actually got to have Jacob as my photographer again too! It's my friend's 1st time in Korea and I told her we absolutely needed to book with them based off my 1st time back in March. Amazing experience. Very sweet, energetic, & helpful with poses. He had great fun and interesting facts too while we ventured around the palace. 제이콥, 정말 고마워요!! Very likely to book with them again in the future.

James and Jacob took our photos. They were fluent in Japanese, English, and Korean, which was incredibly reassuring. During the shoot, they offered thoughtful touches like suggesting poses on an iPad and even telling us the meaning of dandelions. The atmosphere was relaxed throughout, and we had a fun, laughter-filled photo session. Furthermore, they even covered the admission fee for Gyeongbokgung Palace, and their high level of hospitality deeply impressed us. We would definitely love to work with them again.

James is an amazing photographer! Throughout the session he was very encouraging and friendly. He suggested some traditional poses for us to follow and showed us the photos he took before proceeding to the next spot. Overall bery satisfied, we highly recommend this experience!

Photographers were on time and were very helpful in getting us great poses and locations to had our photoshoot at. Would definitely recommend as the poses they recommended added some K-drama and that’s what we went for :)

this was a wonderful way to have a photography session at Gyeongbokchong Palace wearing a Hanbok. The photographers were efficient and so friendly. highly recommend! PS These images are my own! They are NOT samples of the professional photography!
