The Can-Can Old Time Photos

Great experience all around! Really fun costumes, super friendly staff, and so sweet and patient with our kids and dog (who was not staying still very well!)

What a great experience!!! We've always wanted to do photos in Tombstone and finally this trip we decided to. The guy who runs the place is awesome, he definitely makes the experience. Looking forward to doing more photos here in the future!!

We had a good experience at Can Can Old Time Photos in Tombstone. There were 4 of us and a service dog. The woman taking the photos was very helpful in getting us into our costumes. She took multiple shots and let us choose the shot we liked best. I did see the sign about "no personal photos" - and I get that. They are a studio selling prints and reprints.

Family owned & Operated.I met my husband in Tombstone, Az so we thought it only appropriate to get some old time photos done while we stopped in town. The Can-Can is located right off the main street within the little set up of Tombstone. So it is pretty easy to find. We got in there, and there were a few people ahead of us but it didn't really take to long at all. They give you a couple of style options for the woman which is bar maiden, madam, and just regular town folk. Men can go for the gentlemen cowboy look, or the rugged outlaw look. My husband opted for the gentlemen look, and I went with the bar maiden. For the men everything goes over whatever you are already wearing. The women do need to change a bit so there are dressing rooms provided. You can pick one background, and they supply you with a couple of props. I think you may be able to chose a couple of backgrounds but you would need to pay for that option. They take a few pictures, and you chose which one you like the best. You can get your copy in color or sepia, the sepia I think is the best option. There equipment is a bit dated, and it would be cool if they could provide you with a digital copy but they are not set up for that quite yet (Still stuck in the oldin days, Windows 95 ya'll). We had a great time, and the family that runs the place is very helpful and very kind. We would certainly come back here again, probably next time with the kiddos.

Looked for the old time photo place in tombstone and I knew I found the right place by the review I'd the rude woman behind the counter! We came to tombstone today to celibate my bother while had passed away, this was his favorite place. To commemorate the moment we decide to take a picture of the grandkids together. It was at 4;30. They close at 5pm. She " agreed" to hold it open for us. Hold it open? She wasn't busy, they had 30Minutes? The helper proceeded to help the kids get into their costumes, she was great! During all of this people walked in to look around and she rudely said " we are closed!" Come back tomorrow. Some people just wanted to look! In the mean time I mistakingly took my phone off to take a picture of my son and she proceed yo yell at me no personal pictures! There is a $250 fine! Ok... then she proceeded to yell at three other people in our party for the same thing. If it wasn't for the fact we were trying to do the picture for my mom I would have left. She is by far the rudest person I've ever experienced in a store. The photographer was embarrassed by her and fantastic! I hope she isn't the owner. I'm very mad I gave them money. Please do not ever go to this place!!

We called and confirmed the day beforehand and were assured that they would be open today. We had a party of a dozen including my 90 year old mother in a wheelchair, and a baby and two toddlers. It was hot and there were flies all around. Their door was padlocked. We called and called. No answer. After 40 minutes we went down the block to Old Timey Photos and he did a great job.

Great and quick photos! Many options for costume and different options available for the photo.

Went on a Sunday and the wait was only like 45min-1hour. It was fun, my mom was very happy with the outcome.

We actually made previous arrangements in person (after driving 2.5 hrs) to have a family photo taken with 15 - 20 people on Dec 30th for my father's 80th birthday. We called upon arrival (having driven 2.5 hrs again with family from as far as KY, WA and MI) to have probably the rudest, most unfriendly female employee inform us in an extremely rude tone, that not only will she not honor the owners commitment, there was no way she would take that many people and to go elsewhere. We drove to the other shop in town, which not only agreed to the ask but gave us a walk-in time to accommodate. We then made our way to the Can-Can to report the offensive behavior to the owner, who began apologizing and asked if we could return in the morning. We considered it when the now faceless employee on the phone came around the corner and, using the same rude tone, yelled, "I am not doing that many people, and mom said no too." With a dumbfounded look on his face, the owner stated, "I guess the real boss made the rules." We shared that we appreciated the acknowledgment, but the employee's behavior was not only rude, it was unprofessional and offensive. I personally shared in the employee's ear shot, that we are all going to share the experience presented by the employee and this business to the internet in entirety through reviews and how pitiful that behavior was on the phone and in person. This business, its owners, and employees are unprofessional, rude, care only about the money churn, and sadly - liars. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY. We now know why they have such low stars on all social media outlets. We simply thought that the kindness showed in person was real and outweighed the reviews. We were wrong. I wish we could give NO STARS because they don't even deserve 1.

We went on a Thursday to visit Tombstone and our trip would not be complete with an old time photo. We only had to wait about 15 minutes for my husband and I to get our pictures. While getting ready, the owner gave us info on the town which was pretty cool. The pictures turned out super cute. I wish we had been able to do more poses or be able to do multiple "scenes" but it was just him running it that day. We always do these photos when we go on trips and always try to do at least 2 backgrounds and outfits so that was kind of a bummer but totally understood why we could only do one. Good pricing and different mats to choose from. Definitely worth the stop into the studio. Thank you! We loved our photos.
