About the Space

Welcome to our 5-star photography studio! Located in Lanham, Maryland within Prince George's County – a 15-20 minute drive from most places in the DMV – this beautiful studio is the perfect place to create your stunning content. The studio includes a backdrop area to shoot your photography, a seating area to see the shoot unfold, a vanity station to prepare in, and more. As a photographer myself, I do all of my studio shoots in this space, and have never felt creatively limited. There is a large shopping center only 0.2 miles away with retail stores and food options (Target, Shoppers, Chick-Fil-A, Starbucks, and Chipotle to name a few). The studio itself is private, but the facility in which the warehouse is in is shared with other businesses, so please be respectful! This studio is intended for photography purposes in the backdrop area with small to medium teams. It is not tailored for events, or videography purposes, nor is the studio tailored to be used as a set itself. Music videos, especially ones with more than a couple subjects, are not allowed. For all other videography purposes, especially ones including audio, please message me with your project and I'll let you know any details – but heads up, the studio isn't soundproof, so perfect audio can't be guaranteed. Things to Know: - The facility the studio is in has ample parking spaces, and clean shared restrooms for men and women. - When booking, please let me know what backdrop you want to use in your message. I will always have a white and gray/black option, but I'll occasionally have shades of brown. One backdrop comes included with your booking for free, and an additional backdrop is $20 each. Only a white backdrop is guaranteed to be available. Please use as minimal paper as possible, these things are (unnecessarily) expensive. - Smoke of any kind is not allowed (including vaping, or a fog machine!) and is subject to a $300 fee. - The use of confetti, glitter, or any amount of small particles is not allowed, unless requested beforehand, but will be subject to a $50 fee due to additional clean up time. - For all lighting questions, please see the lighting section!

Parking options

Free onsite parking

Parking description

Ample parking spaces located directly in front of building, free to park, 24/7.

Space does not have natural light

Lighting description

- Three to four continuous RGB lights (you can see some of them in the listing photos). They can be any color, as well as any temperature of white. - Two Godox AD200 strobes with triggers available ONLY for Canon, Nikon, and Sony cameras, as well as two softboxes for soft, even light. There is also a reflector with silver/white/gold linings, a few umbrellas, a tripod, and more. - If you want to use the strobes, you MUST message me beforehand mentioning this, or I will only have the RGB lights set up, and can not guarantee that the strobes will be available for use. - There exists a very small risk where someone who has just used the space has accidentally damaged or taken equipment, and I can't replace them in time for your shoot. I highly doubt this would happen, but I am not to be held liable for the lack of any lighting equipment during your shoot.

Space is not soundproof

Ambient noise description

The studio is not soundproof. There are other tenants in the building that can possibly be making noise at any moment, so if audio capture is a major part of your content – especially if you're recording extended takes – I would not suggest booking this studio. It's typically silent, but I'm incapable of making any guarantees.

Crew access

Ground Floor

Equipment loading description

There are large doors and ceilings to fit most of your props into the studio. There is a loading dock, but please let me know if you intend to use it, as I (the host) will need to be there to approve and assist.

Staging area is available

There isn't a separate room, but there is the bathroom (cleaned twice a day) that most clients tend to use for changing wardrobe.

Some rooms are off-limits for shooting

The work desk area.

Shooting the exterior of the building is not allowed

Electrical system description

4 20-amp outlets in the studio space. I don't have access to the circuit breaker, so in the unprecedented case of a power overload, I can't guarantee it will be fixed in time for your shoot. Use plugged in electronics wisely and avoid connecting power hungry electronics (such as steamers, irons, etc.) to power strips. If you're unsure about something, you can always contact me to let me know before plugging something crazy in!

Circuit breaker can not be accessed
