About LA Poetry Department

Built by two working creatives, we built the space we always needed - intentionally designed, fully stocked, and priced to be accessible to working photographers, videographers, content creators, and artists at every level. The Space 625 square feet of open, polished concrete studio space in the Culver City Arts District featuring four distinct shooting setups in one booking: — Lounge Set: A styled modern lounge featuring a navy curved velvet sofa, Wassily-style chrome chair, black drum coffee table, graphic black and white rug, floor lamp, and snake plant. Sheer linen curtains diffuse natural light from the street-facing window, creating a soft, editorial feel perfect for portrait, lifestyle, and brand content. — Velvet Backdrop: A full 11-foot wall of rich floor-length velvet curtains. Ideal for fashion, music press, editorial, and portrait shoots. — Chrome Installation: A custom-built reflective chrome backdrop with dimensional texture that creates a high-contrast, futuristic aesthetic. Perfect for music artists, streetwear, and bold creative content. — Seamless Paper Backdrops: Multiple paper backdrop colors available via our ceiling-mounted 4-roller system. Clean, professional, and easily swapped between looks. What's Included - Everything Unlike most studios, we don't charge extra for equipment.
