Step into a vibrant community of fellow creatives just like you. Discover a distinctive, cozy, and budget-friendly space that caters to all your photography and videography needs. Nestled in the heart of South Bay Chula Vista near 3rd Ave, our live/work loft boasts lofty ceilings and a tranquil front yard. Beneath the shade of a sprawling tree, you'll find an inviting Equipale Chair and table, surrounded by lush greenery. Our indoor primary shooting area spans approximately 18 x 15 feet. If you require more room, the couch can be moved, expanding the depth to around 20 feet. Though the main shooting space is naturally dim, a touch of daylight filters in. If you're planning a shoot, come equipped with lights or explore our available strobe lights. Adding a splash of vintage charm, a 1972 Green VW Bus adorned with a Mondriaan-inspired mural awaits you in front of our garage. The fusion of funky colors and classic bus design lends an authentically retro vibe. Ready to dive into your creative vision? Don't hesitate to reach out with any inquiries. Please note, our kitchen is undergoing renovation, resulting in some open walls. Additionally, we're working on exciting backyard art installations. Stay tuned for updates! We offer optional production assistant services and lighting rentals at an additional cost. Alternatively, you're welcome to bring your own backdrop. Our studio is equipped with grip gear like c-stands and sandbags, available upon request. Upon arrival, a location manager will warmly greet you, providing a tour of the property. PLEASE BE AWARE: Our space is not accessible for closed-set shoots, as we also use it for our own projects. Our team of four is dedicated to honoring your creative freedom while we work in the loft area, ensuring that you have exclusive access to the downstairs shooting area. Feel free to inquire about lighting rentals or professional assistance with lighting and tethering to a screen. We're all about uplifting one another and fostering growth within our artistic community!

Place was one of the better equipment and kit studios for rent in SD. Definitely a photographer’s photographer studio. A creative’s space as well. Jose and Patty are super down to earth and seemingly pro-active which made the vibe perfect.

This was such a great space with lots of great natural light. We held a brand photography session and it had everything we needed for a successful shoot. Jose was very friendly and super accommodating and I would definitely book this space again for future work!

Such a nice experience at this studio! They have everything you need to create nice photos. Jose’s also wonderful and really helpful to us. He helped me set up the light and everything. Will definitely come back to this studio for photoshoot again if I’m in the area.

The space worked out perfectly for my apparel shoot, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The instructions Jose gave prior to my arrival were perfectly descriptive and I had no issues finding the location and getting in. He was so kind and showed me around the entire studio before we began shooting to make sure I knew where everything was. This space goes above and beyond...they even have a steamer to use for clothing so your pictures come out clean with no wrinkles in sight-gotta love it! They were more than accomodating and I look forward to booking again.

Patty and Jose were so helpful and wonderful overall. They were always quick to respond back and offered all the info that was needed. The studio itself was spotless and is beautifully designed. Jose helped me set up the lighting and even offered additional equipment for the photoshoot. My friend and I were so appreciative of their generosity and will definitely be returning for future projects. 11/10.
