Overview
We try to separate ourselves from other LA studios by providing a relaxed yet professional atmosphere with all of the amenities. The studio was purpose built for commercial food photography, but the space really works for anyone. We have a fantastic client area, hair and makeup station and a large Cyc wall that’s perfect for fashion, catalogue and product photography.
