Private Professional Armenian Costume Photo Shoot

Join us in our historic 19th century studio in the heart of Gyumri, where you’ll learn about traditional Armenian costumes, called taraz, and have a professional photo shoot while wearing these beautiful pieces of art. You’ll have the opportunity to see and get to know the over 20 different traditional costumes that we have recreated from different regions of historic Armenia. We’ll tell you everything about the different costumes of Armenia before you choose which one you want to wear for your photoshoot, along with different accessories. After the photoshoot with our professional photographer, which lasts about 45 minutes, we’ll sit down to enjoy local teas and sweets together. Finally to end your experience, you’ll have the opportunity to hand paint your own Armenian letter in the shape of a stylized bird. Trchnagir is a unique form of Armenian calligraphy featuring birds and other animals, plants, and people in the shape of letters. You’ll select your desired letter and paint it on chiffon or silk while listening to traditional Armenian music. You’ll take your letter home with you, and will receive a total of 10 photos, 5 edited and 5 unedited, within one week’s time.
