The Optiviewer is a delight, it is a celebration of a bygone era when pictures were so important and imagination gave a different meaning to each picture, unique for each and every one of us! Beautifully presented in a vintage box, it comes with two different themes: Wild savanna and Ocean Blue.

We started in 1936 as an active photo house on 30 Allenby Street, Tel Aviv. More than once visitors come here and lose a sense of time as they browse through the variety of products, books and archive albums and develop in-depth conversations with our small and warmly staff.
Have we awakened all your senses?
Come with love for a magical experience.
The PhotoHouse Salon is a magical and intimate space, designed in the style of the 60s. A space where there is no sense of time :)
Our salon is used as a cultural venue for lectures, workshops and exhibitions, It hosts our photography studio and is also available for rent for private events.
Rudi Wiesenstein, the founder of The PhotoHouse, documented the events of the developing country and its inhabitants for 50 decades and cultivated a magnificent archive with over a million negatives that we preserve in The PhotoHouse.

The PhotoHouse studio has reopened after over a decade. You are welcome to come for an intimate photo session in a warm and pleasant atmosphere.
It is important for us to produce for you prints with the best quality of finish possible.
We work with artisans who are experts in their field and quality raw materials with an archival standard. We love what we do and invest all our love in it.
In the documentry film 'Life in stills', Miriam Weissenstein and her grandson Ben Peter embark on a journey to save the legendary "PhotoHouse".
