The Good Stuff
Studio Rental
Customers mention equipment and studio rental in Dubai as a useful option for events and photography work.
Makeup Sessions
Students absent on school photo day may be able to arrange a studio makeup session and be added to the class photo.
Child Patience
One parent said the photographers stayed patient and helped a cranky child feel comfortable during a photoshoot.
Email Resolution
One online-order problem was resolved within two days after the customer contacted the company by email.
Tips for a Better Visit
Test Codes. Check the album code before paying; one customer repeatedly saw the message “code exists in circular” for two years.
Confirm Packages. Ask exactly how many different poses and class photos a package includes before transferring payment.
Get Dates. Request a firm delivery date for digital and printed photos, since one customer warned against promises the company cannot meet.
Use Email. If the phone line is unhelpful, try email and keep the exchange; one order issue was sorted within two days that way.
Ask Makeup. If a child misses the school shoot, ask whether a studio makeup session and class-photo insertion can be arranged.
Check Appearance. Before the photo is taken, ask the photographer to check hair, shirts and ties; one parent found all three were missed.

The Bottom Line
Lensman Studios in Dubai Production City is mainly encountered through school photography: parents order individual digital photos, printed portraits and class pictures after a school photoshoot. Reviews also mention camera and videography-equipment rental, plus studio rental in Dubai, so it may serve both school-photo customers and working photographers or event teams. The rental side receives some positive feedback for affordable gear, knowledgeable staff and smooth phone booking and pickup.
A few customers also describe patient photographers and a useful makeup-session option for children absent on school photo day, with the child added to the class picture. Those are worthwhile details to confirm when arranging a shoot. The bigger caution is fulfilment.
Parents repeatedly report broken album codes, confusing packages, unanswered calls and long waits for digital links, hard copies or refunds. One customer waited two months for a school photograph, while another paid for digital images that were still missing after weeks. Package contents also deserve close checking: one parent expected two different pictures but received repeated copies and a class photo for 265 AED plus VAT.
Before paying, test the code, confirm the exact poses and class-photo inclusions, and get the delivery timing in writing. The mixed reviews suggest the experience can depend heavily on the specific team and order process.
