This beautiful storefront studio is 600 square feet on the ground floor with a cozy 150 square foot loft upstairs. It's located in the Ivy Hill neighborhood of Oakland, close to Lake Merritt, downtown, and freeways, with very easy parking. Away from the crowded Grand Lake/Lakeshore area, Ivy Hill still has a funky neighborhood vibe, with a couple of great indie cafes within a block of the studio, a small park with playground across the street, and larger conveniences such as Walgreens and Lucky within easy walking distance. The newly renovated space is primarily a versatile photo studio with an elegant dressing room and space for makeup and hair. The main area is roughly 14' wide x 20' deep with 12.5' ceilings. It's large enough to do a fashion shoot and intimate enough to do headshots, boudoir, and more. While the overall vibe is clean and contemporary, there are tons of different areas within the studio to shoot lots of different looks. The studio is also available for small events (up to 30 guests) as well as offsite meetings or retreats. It has free wi-fi as well as a small kitchenette.
No smoking of any kind is allowed inside the studio.

This was a beautiful venue to shoot in with awesome natural lighting. The kitchen was useful to have and the model was glad to have a changing room to prep in. Cheshire is a wonderful host and I hope to book this space again in the future.

Ruben C. booked a production for 5 people
Cheshire was incredible. Very friendly and accommodating. He showed us the place along with his daughter and it was more than we could have asked for. We had some trouble with the WiFi not connecting so we ended up using our phone which wasn’t a problem. One other thing is the circuits, there’s 3 so make sure you don’t have super heavy equipment to connected the breakers will pop. We tried connecting 3 lights on one circuit and we’re having some issues. Besides this the place is great! Thanks Cheshire!
