Photo Studios Rental Guide
- Price - You should ask yourself two questions before you book the studio or even take any first steps in the planning process: “How much studio time will I need?” and “How much money am I willing to spend on the studio space?”. They will help you determine how much you can afford and limit your search. Tagvenue allows you to filter venues by cost, so why not take our smart search engine for a spin and browse only through places that fall within your price range? It’ll save you lots of time and possible disappointment.
- Availability - Are you organizing a family photo shoot? Or looking for a space ideal for a product shoot? No matter what you’re planning, there is a possibility that there will be a lot of people involved, so make sure that not only the venue but also assistants and models can agree on the specific time. Once you find the studio you like, contact the venue manager immediately and ask all the right questions, including the available time slots and equipment.
- Size - The size of your shoot will determine the space you end up renting, so you’ll probably need a different place if you take pics of some products, portraits, or a group of people. After all, you don’t want people to be squeezed, but at the same time, don’t book a place suitable for 20 people while only 5 will be participating in the shoot. That’s why you should make sure that everyone involved and all the necessary equipment will fit in your chosen space before you seal the deal. How? You can easily check the studio’s size by reading the information provided on the venue’s page on Tagvenue or contact the venue manager directly to schedule a short viewing.
- Location - You can find professional photo studios all over Seattle, not only in the city center but also in the suburbs. This means you won’t have to limit your search to just one area. But there is one thing you should always keep in mind: the photo studio of your choice should be easily accessible. Check how far the place you’re interested in is from any major roads, whether it can be easily reached when traveling via public transport, and if there is a parking lot nearby.
- Equipment - We’re certain you already know this, but we’ll say it anyway: photography requires lots of very specific equipment. So before you book a space, we suggest you think about what kind of gear you’ll need to bring your vision to life: lenses, lights, backdrops, and props. And once you have a complete list, consult your needs with the venue manager at the studio you like the most. They will either offer the in-house equipment or will put you in touch with local providers. However, be careful if you choose the latter option and ensure they’ll deliver it to you.
- Amenities - Most photo studios in the city will provide you with all sorts of different amenities as part of the rental package. Access to a bathroom and separate changing and make-up areas with everything you might need are pretty much certainties. You might also have access to multiple additional areas, such as a separate green room, a room with a Cyclorama, or various sets. And let’s not forget about kitchen facilities - most studios have a place (even a small one) where you and your crew can take a break, heat up your lunch, and drink a cup of coffee.
That’s it! After reading the above tips, we hope that you feel more comfortable with your upcoming photo studio rental and that we managed to make the topic at least a bit clearer for you. Our guide includes just some general suggestions that are a great starting point, but you’ll likely learn more on the go. We also recommend that before starting this experience, you do some more research. Nonetheless, we wish you lots of luck with this project, and any other creative enterprises you’re planning.
