My husband needed passport photos in a hurry and Maria was great. Photos are perfect and she was wonderful. Great communication as well. Very pleased and we will recommend her to anyone who needs this service. Thank you again Maria!

This place is the best! I got my passport pictures there, very fast and professional, high quality photos, happy to find this place, definitely recommend.

Got my passport picture taken here and it was quick, easy, cheaper than CVS and such great quality photos. The photographer was super nice and professional :) HIGHLY recommend!

Fantastic experience. Maria was kind, professional and even threw in some bonuses for us. We highly recommend her for your Greek passport needs.

I experienced very professional and excellent service. I am loath to have my picture taken as it causes me great anxiety; however, the lady was very kind, worked expertly and thoroughly so that I forgot my nerves. I will certainly return.

Called in last minute on Sunday to take passport photos, and Maria was so willingly to accommodate me even though the studio was closed on a Sunday. Pictures look fire! Definitely recommend!

Thank you so much Maria for the beautiful work!
We’re grateful you came to our home for a family shoot and we enjoyed every second of it! Great work and professionalism. Very happy with our pictures!

I came to 10. Close. Waited 10 minutes. Nobody came.

Milo is the best! I wanted to digitize my artwork for a while, and he gave me a great price to scan my original watercolor artwork. Fast and friendly, I’ll be coming back for all of my digital photo needs!

We hired Maria for our daughters Sweet 16. We are so glad we did. Not only were our daughters photos amazing, but the entire experience on that day was incredible. Additionally, Maria helped us create the most unique thank you cards where we got the most positive feedback. Without hesitation would I reach out to her again.

If you’re looking for European (Greek) passport photos , don’t waste your time with the other photographers listed on the Greek Consulate’s recommendations page. Maria was super-responsive, accommodating with appointment times and clearly understands the standards & expectations for picture quality expectations/processing passports in Greece.


This man snapped literally and metaphorically regarding my passport photo. $15 very well spent.

Great place to take passport pictures and more, highly recommended... Fast and professional service and Milo the owner, was very kind. Totally appreciated!! 10/10

John A. DeMato leaves it all on the court. ALL of it. Honestly, if "aerobic photography" was a sport, John would take the Olympic Gold.
Whenever I feel my clients need new images to convey their brand and connect with their audience, I ALWAYS suggest John. But this time, it's the shoemaker's kid (that's me) that's getting the amazing shoes!
Since we're rebranding and updating our website, I decided that I needed to kick it up a notch. So I hired John, myself. And by the preview images John shared with me during the shoot, I can already tell that I'm getting so much more than I anticipated. I can't wait to start using these amazing images on our platforms and in our work!!
Using powerful (and personal) images in your marketing is KEY to stopping the scroll and connecting with your target audience. This is non-negotiable. So don't skimp.
John flew down to Bradenton, Florida from Astoria, New York and spent 4+ hours bending, crouching, stretching, and crawling to attain the perfect shots. His dedication to the pursuit of greatness is seriously awe inspiring.
John approaches his work with sincere gusto and passion.
I encourage you, connect with John.
He's intense.
He's dedicated.
He's such a pro 👌

Visited Tolios Photography for my (Greek) passport photos and found it the best experience. Completely assured by Maria with her professionalism. For example, she took multiple photos and then went through each one to request my feedback. She also provided her consultation to the best one. I really appreciated her time and expertise and trust her implicitly for future photographic services. I would rate 5+ stars if possible.

Great place to have your passport pictures taken and to have your photos framed. I recently got my diploma framed here too.

The best photographer in nyc , I spent lots of money to get a nice photo for my passport, I went to so many places and I didn’t like the photos , but light click’ photographer was very professional, knows how to use his tools , he was like an artist trying to discover your beauty and show it in a photo, the best and I recommend

Working with John is an empowering experience. He brings a wealth of knowledge of TV, photography, and the written word together to help design a roadmap for content-based marketing. I enjoyed the creative energy in a recent image masterminding session and we came away with some brilliant ideas!

Absolutely fabulous work! Tino is always ready to help and he works hard to capture amazing pictures! His team is amazing and they captured beautiful pictures of our special day! My husband and I are very satisfied with his work.

I hired John after realizing that I sorely needed better headshots. And because I’m also running an active Facebook Group and creating a lot of content about copywriting, I decided it would be a good idea if he did a lot of “lifestyle” shots for me too.
John and I had an initial call where we discussed my goals and what I wanted to accomplish with the shoot. He was professional and very knowledgeable. He made great suggestions, and I felt very prepared and excited for our day of shooting by the time I got off the call.
During the actual shoot, John was the consummate pro. He was easy to work with, very committed to his craft, and obsessed over capturing each moment with the perfect photo. He even did some extra shots of me, my wife and my daughter, which I really appreciated.
I’ve already been using the photos that John took and the feedback from others has been excellent. I used to cringe every time people asked me if I had a headshot. Now I don’t - I just quickly send one of the photo's John took. It’s alleviated a very real pain point for me.
There are so many reasons I would recommend John to others. His professionalism was unmatched, he takes great photos, and he’s a dream to work with. His turnaround time was also extremely fast - he got me the pictures we took in just a few short days which was awesome. If you’re looking for professional or branded photos, you absolutely need to talk to John.

I needed simple, clean and impeccable new headshots. I had seen John’s work (including pictures of me) from an event I attended, and they were gorgeous. I investigated on his website and decided to work with him.
Doing headshots is always kind of awkward, but John took care of that right away. He set a friendly – and frankly, silly – tone that made it easy to relax. And, we periodically stopped to look at pictures and figure out what was working. So, as we worked the photos just got better and better. And the results are great; my very, very picky manager loved them, which is saying something.
The package I got from John is not for the kind of shoot where you try a million backgrounds and all sorts of lighting tricks. It’s one, perfectly lit set-up, which means you can focus on your face and work the angles until it’s perfect.
The price is great. The results are exactly what I was hoping. Would recommend 100%.
(Also, it was kind of fun; and I usually detest this kind of thing.)

I worked with John on his Idea Nugget program as well as for a Lifestyle Portrait session to use in various aspects of my business. John has an infectious enthusiasm in helping develop ideas and thoughts (the Nuggets) for blogs, posts etc. And that carried right over to the photo shoot where his professionalism shined. SO much different than the standard in studio headshot session. John delivered great results!

John is a consummate professional who is personable, fun to be around, and incredibly skilled. John worked closely with me to identify my personal brand and the message I wanted to convey. He coached and directed me towards achieving imagery that best represented that message. I am not very comfortable having my picture taken. John created a light and fun atmosphere, to where I almost didn't know the camera was in the same room. I had a blast working with John, and would highly recommend him for your photography needs.

WOW! I've never looked so good in my entire life as I did from the photoshoot with John!
From start to finish, John is an absolute master. Not only are the pictures top notch, but he made the entire experience easy super easy and fun. It didn't even feel like a photo shoot - we were just hanging out having a blast.
If you want to capture more than just a cheesy smile, work with John and show all the best aspects of your personality in a single shot. It's the best investment I've made in a LONG time, both personally and professionally.
