Olivia

I purchased this after seeing it on Instagram. It’s not suitable for taking pictures of my artwork as my iPhone is not! perfect horizontal and never exactly above my drawing. This could be solved if the foot could be turned away, which isn’t possible. The light isn’t strong enough, you need extra daylight lamps. The batteries have to reload every few hours. So No! Not satisfied at all

Other artists have given Olivia very positive reviews and I understand you are unhappy with your purchase.

Broken Light Buttons

Bought the Olivia phone holder. delays on the delivery. Arrived with a light button broken and not working. Great Customer Service managed to send me a new one with no cost. The second one arrived with the same broken light button as well.

Hi Davide. Our sincerest apologies. Our last conversation was in May and we didn't realise we didn't send a third Olivia to your address. We will have someone reach out to you so we can make it right.

Brilliant product, brilliant service....

Love this product and the service in supplying it. Arrived quickly, had good instructions provided with the extra from the supplier and works a charm.
It is a clever design, packs down for easy storage. Particularly like the remote which means that you do not have to touch anything once it is set up so no altering or moving to distort imaging.

Great quality lightstand

I was so impressed by the ease of use of their Olivia lightstand from promotional videos, I was convinced to buy one for use in my small business.

It was very easy and quick to get this setup and start taking high quality videos for my social media content as well as professionally lit pictures for my product sales pages.

Can highly recommend.

A simple smartphone ist to heavy to hold - so the Arm is coming down every time, and the whole construction is not useable.
I would never ever buy it again!!!

Hi Carina. Based on how you described the issue with the arm coming down, it appears that you have not configured Olivia's overhead correctly. We sent video walkthrough instructions post your purchase so you can follow through the set up. We are happy to resend that so you can set up Olivia correctly. Olivia can support your phone if the overhead is set up correctly. Please also know that you if you have any concerns or issues, you can always email our customer support for clarification. We have also reached out to you through your Instagram account.

Needs improvement

The top view position doesn’t really get parallel to the base, so there’s always an angle to what’s being filmed. Needs improvement, especially considering de cost

Great service!

After using the product "Olivia" successfully several times, I was disappointed that the remote control could not be recharged. But after contacting Paparazzo, they sent me a replacement remote control without any problems, even though the guarantee had already expired. Thank you for the great service!

The light is not at all bright enough for filming or photos. The springs barely hold my phone in, it keeps sliding down if I try to make it vertical. So disappointed.

Olivia and Photo box

Received my Olivia and photo box recently. Very impressed with the photo box and have used it to take some beautiful photos already. I have yet to use the Olivia but seems to be very high quality materials and good design. I did think the light would be a little brighter but I do think it will be very helpful in making videos of creating various art.

Not used the product yet buy it looks sturdy. I like the fact that it’s compact and the base is heavy giving good support. It took longer than two weeks for delivery but at least the box wasn’t damaged and arrived in one piece.
