About this space

Photo studio with hardwood floors and big North facing window.

Booming with a cute pinky vibe that makes you feel like you’re little again. Perfect for taking pictures with children if we want them to feel comfortable while shooting perfect photos!

After arriving in space, feel free to use any equipment that you want for your photography. Stand, sit or lay on the floor whatever makes you feel comfortable! And if you’ll ever need anything, make sure to ask our staff - they’re ready to help with anything!

If you want to take more than 10 people with you we charge a $5 fee per person.

If you require a freight elevator, please notify us at least 24 hours in advance. Last-minute requests may not guarantee the availability of the freight elevator for your booking.

Christmas decorations for the 2025 holiday season will be installed in this studio between October 6–10 and removed during the first week of 2026.
