Great for first time / solo traveler, Mary picked up from the lobby straight to Zhujiajiao water town. There we had costume to pick, make up and hairstyles of choice. Later we did photography sessions in the Ma Garden inside the water town and surrounding areas. It took 1 hour photography approximately with 1 hour drive to and back to city. Mary explaining the stories of town while photographing and Hunter is a professional photographer. He guide you along for poses and props like fan, umbrella After all done, we are to choose pictures. They are friendly and helpful. It’s worth all the way the effort.
