I would like to thank the Studio 22 staff for the excellent service I received. I ordered a photobook, and the quality of the product is amazing. The online program is so user friendly. The staff went all the y to assist me in the timeline to finish the product. I really appreciate you.
I've had glassed frames printed several times at Studio22online, and I'm consistently impressed by their excellent service. The team is always very helpful and quick to respond, ensuring that the entire process is smooth and efficient.
A special shoutout to Speranda, who went above and beyond to enhance the printing resolution for me the first time and arranged an express shipment the second time.
Their attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction truly stand out. Highly recommend Studio22online for anyone looking for quality printing and personalized service!

Will definitely be using you again :)
I had three storybooks printed at Studio 22 for my nephew and I’m blown away by the quality. The books look truly professional, the binding is excellent, and they actually finished the job ahead of the promised time. The team s friendly, responsive, and made the whole process easy. I’ll definitely use them again and highly recommend their services!
What a fantastic team!
Super quick service and top-notch quality!
They were one of the very few places that could help me print 3 photos at a great price—with next-day pickup, too!
Officially my go-to print shop from now on.
Keep up the amazing work—you’re awesome! ⭐️
I had a coffee table book made, and it is STUNNING! Not only is the actual book incredible quality, (print and paper quality couldn’t be better) but the software to make the book s super easy to use, and you can do literally anything you nt to do with your book!!! So user friendly! After I made the purchase and sent my book off for print, I s ed and kept informed of where my book s in the process, by very friendly and efficient staff, which is difficult to find these days! I can’t recommend highly enough. I will be printing many more books with them, I’m actually shocked at the quality and service, for the low price you pay for the book! Insane!
True customer service shows when things go wrong ... and they went very wrong with a leather-bound book job. It s chaotic from the beginning, with a lack of competence and knowledge regarding the project from the person assigned to run the job. Hence, the experience s very, very trying. Then to top it all, the front cover of the leather-bound book s not sent to me, the client, for approval ... and s printed with a glaring error on the cover - an error so obvious that it should have been picked up by the staff anyway. This clear incompetence s completely dismissed, without even an apology, and instead I s told I would need to pay again to rectify it, even though it s actually Studio 22's oversight. I refused, as I will refuse to ever use them or refer anyone to them again. What a huge disappointment and ste of money it s. Unfortunately customer satisfaction is definitely not a priority here!
Honestly, the most amazing, kind, down-to-earth people who know exactly what they're doing. How to do it - quickly - at an excellent price. I'll recommend them to everyone!
Received my 5th and 6th photo books from Studio22 and as always the books were of outstanding quality that made my photos look a lot better than they actually are. Thanks to all the friendly people there your hard work is much appreciated !
I loved my photobook , it s beautiful but the real stand out s the incredible staff who were friendly and super helpful. Such a smooth process and really great quality all round.
