What is included in a rental?

Everything but the kitchen sink! Just kidding, but close. Rentals include full access to our furniture, seamless paper backdrops, client closet, and props. Skip buying super expensive accessories and have everything you need in one simple rental fee.

Do I have to have a membership to rent your studio?

Not at all! Studio rentals are open to all photographers. Memberships just provide some extra perks like a dedicated member profile page, priority posting on social media, exclusive access to our premier props/furniture, access to studio lighting, free studio content day tickets, and discounted rental pricing.

Who is the studio designed for?

We understand the hurdles of studio ownership. Finding a commercial space is hard and finding one that provides enough space is even harder. Add on multi-year contracts, startup costs, build outs, and the massive overhead, creating a commerical studio space can not only be daunting, but also limiting. Built from the studs out, our space was meticulously designed to overcome some of the hurdles of the traditional ownership allowing for a spacious environment to unleash the full capabilites of your art while ensuring you only pay for a studio when you need to. (Say goodbye to the struggle of the off season!) With both traditional studio photographers (providing an open, expansive, and easily transformable space) and photographers aiming for soft, even-toned imagery (where the use of artificial lighting remains almost indistinguishable in their imagery), our studio has been created with a wide range of photography shooting and editing styles in mind.

Are your events open to anyone?

Absolutely! Our goal in creating this space was not only to provide a place for photographers to rent, but to also provide a place for creatives in the community to connect, gain new friendships, and find the support they need. So whether you’re new to the area and looking to make some new friends who share your passion, are a current studio owner looking for some new content or education, or a current photography group looking for a place to hold your meetings, please know there is always a place for you here in our studio!

What type of sessions are most ideal for your studio?

Our studio is perfect for almost any type of indoor session, including senior photos, bridal portraits, fashion photography, modeling, family portraits, cake smashes, couples, branding, and milestones.

Will your staff be in the space during my rental?

Yes, a studio representative will always be onsite. Professionalism is important to us, and our goal is always to be available when you need us, but not in the main area of the studio while your clients are here so we will be present to greet you, but during your session, our staff will be in the office area. Need something during your rental? Our studio has three silent call buttons to make it easy to let us know when you need us.

Will you be recording social media/video content during my rental?

No, we do not record any social media or video content during rentals unless a photographer requests it, as we know how important it is that you have full control of any content captured of your clients during your rental. The content shared on our IG pages is normally submitted directly from the photographers renting our studio or are clips from content we capture from studio-sponsored events.

Can I come in before a rental to look through props, backdrops, furniture, and your client closet to brainstorm ideas?

Absolutely! We want you to have the most incredible session possible!! Please know you can schedule a time to come in before your rental to look through what we by clicking here.

I’d like to offer mini-sessions but I’m not sure if they will book. Can I reserve a time slot while I advertise and reschedule if I need to?

You can! If offering mini sessions, we recommend reserving a timeslot as soon as you begin advertising to ensure rentals are not booked during the dates and times you are trying to sell. If you don’t have the turnout expected, we provide the option for you to easily reschedule up to 48 hours before your rental as many times as you need using the rescheduling link at the bottom of your rental confirmation email. When rescheduling, you’ll have the flexibility to choose any available date and time up to 120 days in advance. There are no limits on the number of times you can reschedule.

For members on our creative plus membership ($175/month) you have the full flexibility to schedule a session block that can be cancelled at anytime with no money down.

If there are certain items or backdrops I would like to use, can I let you know beforehand?

Absolutely! In fact, we encourage it! We try to make each rental as easy as possible for you, so we try to pull out items and set up lighting based on what you may use before you arrive making it easier for you to focus on what you love. The more we know, the better set the studio will be for your rental.

Do items and backdrops change out often?

Our cyclorama wall (with the exception of Christmas), access to one seamless paper station, bed, and a portion of our ‘picture-box’ trimmed wall are always available. Our other sets change out once a month.

Can another photographer and myself share a rental time?

Absolutely! Our studio is large enough for more than one photographer to work at a time. If there is a photographer that you love working with that may be having sessions at the same time and you would like to share the space/cost, you are more than welcome to have someone else there during your rental.

Help! I have a session/intimate ceremony scheduled and need an indoor space. Can I use the studio?

Of course! Our studio is the perfect place to capture images when the weather outside isn’t in your favor. Bookings are available online with as little notice as an hour by clicking here. If you don’t see the timeslot bookable on our rental page or the need is super last minute, reach out to us using our contact form by clicking here. Our emails are monitored even after hours, so we are super quick to respond.

I am having a cake smash during my rental. Can my client or myself drop off a cake beforehand?

You can! We do have a refrigerator in our breakroom to store a cake if needed. Just send us a message to let us know when to expect someone.

Are you pet friendly?

We love our furry friends! Dogs and cats are always welcome. The only thing we require is an up-to-date rabies vaccination.
