The Photo Loft: West End

Dallas's LED-Lit Studio: Perfect for Fashion & Music Videos

Free onsite parking, Free street parking

There is ample street level parking next to the studio.

This studio has no windows, making it easy to control the lighting. We also provide LED tubes, constant LED lights and flashes by our lighting sponsor, Geekoto during every reservation.

This studio is located on the first floor of a 2 story building. The second floor is also a rentable studio that can be booked out at the same time because it has a separate entrance. The studio is also in between 2 other commercial units. Because of this, we cannot guarantee total control of noise. If you need more control over the noise from the upstairs studio, please message us first and we will try to provide a solution for you.

Ground Floor

No loading zone.

Going up the stairs near the main entrance is strictly prohibited as the upstairs space is a separate studio that could be booked by another guest. Once inside the downstairs studio, there is a section of the space that is blocked off by a white curtain. The area behind the white curtain is off limits.

Guests may not access the circuit breaker. We have standard power outlets.

RULE FOR FLORAL INSTALLATION: By booking, you agree to respect our floral installation. Do not remove any flowers or greenery. Our studio is monitored by Wi-Fi cameras. Removing flowers incurs a $100 fee for restoration by a florist. If you want to take photos holding flowers, please bring your own. General Rules Please ensure you thoroughly familiarize yourself with our studio rules. Non-compliance may lead to additional charges. To ensure that these rules are upheld, we utilize Wi-Fi cameras throughout the shooting spaces, monitored by a female virtual assistant. Please note, bathrooms are exempt from this monitoring for privacy. If a rule violation is detected, a studio representative will attempt to contact you twice on the provided phone number. If we are unable to reach you after two calls, our studio's Public Address (PA) system will be activated to address the issue. In order to avoid the use of the PA system, we kindly ask that you keep your phone on and its volume sufficiently loud to receive our calls while in the studio. 1. Checkout Process Your booking includes a 10-minute cleaning and checkout period that starts after your session's end time. Please note that a Photo Loft virtual manager will be monitoring the Wi-Fi cameras to ensure that all shooting stops promptly at the end of the booking, and the checkout process is initiated. If the Photo Loft representative observes that you are still shooting after your scheduled end time, they will call the phone number you provide to ensure that shooting stops, and you begin packing and initiating the checkout process. If you do not answer your phone, the Photo Loft representative will activate our loud Wi-Fi speaker and communicate with you. We aim to avoid any discomfort or embarrassment, so we kindly request that you set your phone too loud to ensure we can reach you. Please be aware that we will charge up to $100 if our checkout process isn't completed perfectly. Additionally, if you do not leave within the 10-minute checkout window, we will charge the card on file late fees of $10 per minute spent in the studio after the 10-minute window. It is therefore essential to adhere to the checkout process and vacate the studio promptly to avoid any additional charges. Your confirmation email will include a link to our detailed checkout process. We've included helpful photos that make it easy to follow along, and most people complete the process in about five minutes. This way, you can be sure you're following our checkout process correctly and avoid any additional charges. 2. Respect the Furniture To preserve the quality of our high-end furniture, shoes are not allowed on couches or beds. Any scuffs, dirt, or damage may result in charges corresponding to the cost of repair, cleaning, or replacement. Furniture and decor may be moved. However, ALL items must be placed back in their original placement. 3. Timeliness and Courtesy Please be considerate to subsequent users by cleaning up and exiting the studio promptly at the end of your booked time slot. 4. Studio Privacy Policy We require that you adhere to our studio privacy policy. If you require any assistance or have inquiries during your session, please call us directly at 214-530-5986. We prohibit knocking on other studio doors, as this can disrupt ongoing sessions and violates the privacy of other clients. 5. You CANNOT remove the provided LED constant light to use the stand for your own lighting equipment. If you have specific lighting needs, please bring additional stands to accommodate your gear.

Production insurance is required for large-budget commercial jobs that are done in our studio.

Furniture and decore may be moved. However, ALL items must be placed back in their original placement. A comprehensive checkout process is mandatory at the end of your booking. Ten minutes prior to the end of your reservation, a link to our detailed checkout process will be texted to you. Alternatively, you can access the process at any time by scanning the QR code displayed prominently in the studio. This process includes step-by-step photos to ensure ALL items, even the smallest ones, are returned exactly to their original places. The process is designed to be easy and efficient, taking no more than 10 minutes to complete. It is essential for maintaining the studio's organization and cleanliness for each guest. Failure to follow all steps of the checkout process, including correctly replacing all items, may result in a cleaning fee of up to $100.
