Photographer

Yes, I would book again.

The host was responsive and helpful throughout my experience, not only that but professional. I was extremely pleased with the space as well as the customer service personally provided by one of the co-owners Elliot. My clients and I were satisfied thus my maternity photoshoot turned out to be a huge success. I would suggest calling ahead prior to arriving, they made it very convenient for us to gain access to the studio upon arrival.

Such a beautiful space! I got to meet Elliot and he was the best! So attentive to anything I needed and helped me out with learning the equipment on set. The studio was very clean and had dynamic pieces that allowed me to build various aesthetics in one area. My client was super happy with the results and set, and so was I :-)
