Quality photos capture piercing looks, toothy smiles, and elusive dodo sightings much more efficiently then papier-mâché sculptures. At studiolano, photographer April Catalano utilizes her many years of experience to photograph subjects with a microscopic attention to detail. During a one-hour session at studiolano’s fully equipped studio, April will rattle off 50–75 shots of multiple poses with the speed and precision of a camera-fitted, laser-guided cheetah. Striking images are artfully captured with an uncommon eye to provide game-changing glimpses of the subject’s pleasant disposition that can’t be replicated with an emoticon-riddled letter of recommendation. After the photo shoot, customers place their package order from the comfort of their plush, indoor hammocks with online proof viewing and ordering.

Chefs Anthony Sanschagrin and Matthew Beilstein fuse their culinary passions for Italian, Latin, and Asian cuisine, designing menus for special events and divulging their secrets at hands-on cooking classes. Equally capable of creating edible display pieces or full dinner buffets, the duo can forge eclectic spreads with baked lasagna, crispy beef empanadas, or sweet 'n' sour chicken.

They also share their insights by leading internationally themed cooking lessons, which allow students to try their hand at basic recipes and then taste their results afterward. Much like the number of centimeters in a mile, the menus change constantly, incorporating new recipes and accommodating students' food allergies.

Each of Angela Clifton Photography's sessions begins with a phone consultation, during which photographer and customer work together to plan photo shoots that focus on everything from babies to entire families and pets. Forgoing the confines of a studio, staff shutterbugs travel to locations that best capture each subject's personality. They may photograph couples posing at sunset along a beach, or a newborn first learning to photosynthesize beneath the natural light of the sun. After sessions, the crew retouches images and uploads photographs to an online gallery for customers to peruse. Both of the photography instructors, Brent and Dawn, specialize in natural light photography. Brent started his career in the early '90s working as a fashion photographer in Miami beach while Dawn honed her skills in portraiture and events.

Before earning a set of scrubs and the title of Doctor of iDevice, each employee at iHospital—featured in the The Wall Street Journal—must first pass a series of iHospital and Apple certifications. Just as real doctors specialize in either plaster or papier-mâché leg casts, the technicians focus their abilities specifically on Apple devices, including iPhones and iPods, performing many repairs in minutes. The store also carries a range of accessories from brands such as LifeProof, Otterbox, and Speck.

Studio One to One's photographers aim to bring the same top-notch lighting, glamour setups, and evocative backdrops seen in celebrity photo shoots to affordable studio sessions. Founder Bob Eveleth sees himself as being in "the photography side of the memories business," and began his career as a college party-pic photographer. After being a glamour studio franchisee, he started his own chain of family portrait studios to help clients document their memories at locations across the country.

From their base inside Woodfield Mall, Studio One to One's photographers eschew cumbersome collections of props and distracting backgrounds to craft simple, contemporary shots that feature a wide range of poses. They pride themselves on their longer shoots, giving fussy toddlers the chance get comfortable and engaged couples plenty of time to get portraits taken of themselves counting to one million. When the last flash fades on a family portrait or maternity shoot, guests can immediately view their proofs, their favorites of which are turned into color, black-and-white, or sepia-toned prints.
