About the Space

Raw Indoor Basketball Court in Abandoned Chicago School This indoor basketball gym sits inside a shuttered school building in Chicago, offering a gritty, untouched atmosphere that’s hard to replicate. With polished wood floors, faded green and white accents, and vintage bleachers, the space feels suspended in time — perfect for sports-themed shoots, urban backdrops, or moody cinematic scenes. Features: Full-size basketball court Original hardwood flooring Retractable wooden bleachers High ceilings with industrial lighting Authentic, slightly worn look for that raw, lived-in feel Easy access for crews and gear Whether you're filming a gritty high school drama, a throwback sports scene, or an edgy editorial, this space delivers a visual tone you can’t fake.

Bloom and Gather Photography

Photography

From $500/package

Hi there! I'm Becky with Bloom and Gather Photography. I specialize in freezing time during the most fleeting seasons of life - weddings, newborns, and the "little years" with your kids. I am a firm believer that wedding days should come with a photographer that takes stress off your plate rather than adding to it, that family and portrait sessions should be fun - not stressful, and that newborn sessions should be beautiful and safe! I promise you that you will only here me say “cheese” during your family’s session if your kids just asked me what my favorite food is. You also won’t see me get frustrated or impatient with your newborn who may not want to immediately settle for me. That’s so normal, and completely okay. If anything, it’s to be expected! As a mom, I understand that kids (and babies) need to have the space to be themselves in order to get the best shot. I want you to look back at these photos for years to come and immediately think back to how much fun you had - not how stressed you were. So take a deep breath, relax, and let’s have some fun capturing your memories!Read more

Ricky Kluge Photography

Photography

From $500/package

Hi — I’m a Chicago-based commercial photographer and director focused on lifestyle, athletic, and brand-driven imagery. My work centers around people. I’m drawn to creating visuals that feel natural, grounded, and real, while still holding a clean, intentional look that fits modern campaigns and advertising. I approach shoots with a balance of structure and flexibility. Whether working with a full production team or a smaller setup, the goal is always the same: keep things efficient, collaborative, and focused on getting strong, usable results without overcomplicating the process. Over the years, I’ve worked with brands and agencies on a range of projects, from campaign imagery to branded content. The through line is always the same — making work that feels authentic, but still elevated enough to stand out. Based in Chicago and working throughout the Midwest & beyond —Read more
