Bold natural light production locations in Chicago
If there's one thing Chicago has in abundance, it's lofts. Its manufacturing past means there are former factory and warehouse buildings throughout the city that have been repurposed into creative spaces. Lofts have large factory windows that allow natural light in large quantities. If the windows face south and west/east, then you're sure to have abundant light, depending on the season, the height of the building, and the time of day.
Look for natural light photo shoot locations in the Lower West Side and North Side of Chicago. Many have exposed beams, exposed brick, and other amenities that will enhance the loft vibe if you're looking to tell an industrial lifestyle narrative. Or you can decorate them to transform your urban loft space into a chic cafe, contemporary kitchen, or anything else you have the props for.

The best urban loft product shoot venues in Chicago
Urban lofts are some of our favorite venues to recommend for product and commercial photography. Loft style rooms are easy to customize; accessory lighting, brick walls, and vaulted ceilings just beg for a creative touch. One of our favorites is Create at Upscale, a dedicated photography studio rental space located in the South Loop. Upscale is relatively new to the Chicago landscape yet they've hosted over 1500 photographers since their opening in 2020.
Upscale's loft selection includes boho chic decor with skyline views through massive windows. The main loft alone offers six creative sets, a full bar, a lounge, and bluetooth equipped surround sound speakers. Everything you need to put together a commercial project.
For product photography centered around cosmetics, weddings, contemporary decor, and other genres that benefit from white and natural light, have a look at Room 1520. Situated in the West Loop district, this venue is a wedding and commercial studio that exudes elegance and is ideally decorated for luxury projects.
