The Good Stuff
Free retouching
Customers mention complimentary retouching, including natural removal of scars and pimples and other small edits.
Newborn photos
The studio handles difficult newborn passport photos patiently, including photos for a two-month-old baby.
Helpful staff
Staff are patient with children and have taken multiple retakes when customers were not satisfied with the first photo.
Digital delivery
Digital copies can be sent directly to email and WhatsApp, which is useful for visa or ID applications.
Clothing solution
The studio keeps special jackets for ID photos when a visitor’s clothing does not meet the requirements.
Careful printing
Reviewers say staff check the crop before printing and use a colour-accurate printer for photos and framed prints.
Tips for a Better Visit
Ask for retakes. If the first shot is not right, ask for another take; one customer received multiple retakes until satisfied.
Request digital copies. Ask for email or WhatsApp delivery if you need to submit the photo online rather than only collecting prints.
Check clothing. If your outfit fails an ID-photo requirement, ask about the studio’s special jackets before changing plans.
Visit late. The studio has been reported open until 11pm, useful for urgent visa or ID photos after work.
Plan parking. Paid parking is available directly in front, though availability depends on when you arrive.

The Bottom Line
Marina Photos Kodak is a practical Jumeirah stop for passport, visa and Emirates ID photos, with reviews repeatedly describing a shoot-to-delivery time of roughly five to ten minutes. Customers can also request newborn passport photos, professional CV pictures and printed or framed images. Digital files are often sent by email or WhatsApp, which saves a second trip when an application is urgent.
The studio seems especially comfortable with document photography that has specific size or background rules. Reviewers mention US 2x2 photos, Japanese visa photos and Emirates ID images, while another customer appreciated help with a two-month-old baby. Retakes, patient posing guidance and editing are recurring strengths; one review even describes scars and pimples being removed naturally in Photoshop.
There are useful practical touches: special jackets are available when clothing is unsuitable for an ID photo, and the studio has been reported open until 11pm. Paid parking is available in front, although spaces depend on arrival time. Printing feedback is also specific, with a reviewer praising careful cropping and colour accuracy.
One caution is the wider family-photography offering. A customer had a very poor family-session experience and felt the studio might be better for passport-size photos, so clarify the style and quality you want before booking a larger shoot.
