Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in the studio hire?
Backdrops - Black, grey + white (additional colours available @ $15/each)
Studio lights - Strobes or continuous video
Lighting modifiers - Softboxes, strip boxes, beauty dishes, coloured gels.
Props - Use anything and everything in the space (except the cat) to enhance your photos
Multiple shooting areas - Use the paper backdrops for a clean studio look, the makeup mirrors for "behind the scenes" glamour shots, the display shelves for product photos, the roller door for a grungy industrial aesthetic, or shoot on the lip couch with the sirens behind you for something completely unique.
Can I book extra time?
If availabilities permit on the day, you can extend your studio hire for $75/h
How many people can I bring?
As many as you need for your shoot!
Between our shooting area for your photog, the green room for the models, and the makeup area for your MUA's, the studio is large enough to comfortable accomodate up to 8-10 people.
I've never shot in a studio before - Can you help?
For sure! James is an experienced photographer with over 10 years of shooting under his belt, and studio lighting is his jam. He's happy to do the heavy lifting during your shoot as a studio and lighting tech to make your shots look amazing so you can focus on shooting. If you want to learn to do it yourself, he's happy to explain lighting techniques and setups and the technical side of studio photography so you have the know-how to take your photos to the next level.
Can I bring my own props, lights, gear etc?
Absolutely. You can bring whatever you need for during your shoot, but we need a heads up if its going to involve anything messy (Confetti, glitter, slime, smoke machine etc)
Are the pole, bathtub and aerial rig available for my shoot?
We have a floor to ceiling tension pole, and a stage pole. There is a $50 set up fee for either of these. The tension pole can have 1 seamless paper backdrop running underneath it.
The bathtub is $50 as a dry prop and $100 if you wish to fill it. Filling the tub takes about 15-20 minutes and must also be put back in the bathroom, drained, and cleaned by end end of your session time. If you use the bathtub for your shoot, aim towards 1 hour hour of shooting time and one hour of set up/pack down.
The aerial rig is $75/session and can come with a lyra hoop, but you are more than welcome to bring your own apparatus to attach!

Does this sound familiar?
You're ready to level up your photography and shooting at the beach and local parks just doesn't hit the same way anymore
You're wanting to grow your photography skills and explore your creative ideas in a professional, affordable environment?
A client reached out to you for some studio headshots, and you almost puked when looking at other studios fees as you realised there'd be no profit left for yourself at the end of the shoot?
Don't worry, we can help!
