WELCOME TO

THE LOFT

IMPORTANT UPDATE

SEPTEMBER 4, 2024

After nine wonderful years, we have decided to close our studio rental business at the end of our 2024 Holiday Season (December 23rd, 2024). We are eternally grateful for all the friendships, partnerships, and memories we and our clients have created in our space(s) over the years. We love you and couldn’t have asked for a better community!

October 20th, 2024 will be the last day to book The Loft without any Christmas decor.
October 21st - October 25th, 2024 the studio will be closed as we transform the studio for the holiday season.

THE LOFT

The Loft is a great rental space with two separate areas to shoot in: a larger area with white walls and windows, and a smaller private area with black walls! Both have access to a private dressing area. Located on the 2nd floor of the Davis-Linden building, upstairs from our main studios, The Loft boasts a spacious, windowed room full of industrial features. Well-lit, with renovated bathrooms down the hall, this space is ideal for photographing large groups, styled shoots, and more.

Due to building and fire code regulations, we can no longer rent our studios for dinner parties, showers, receptions, or events.

BEFORE BOOKING, PLEASE READ THESE

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMERS

  • There is NO central air conditioning in The Loft or the Davis-Linden Building.

    HOWEVER, only the northeast corner receives very little direct morning sun, which keeps the temperature reasonably cooler.

  • During the winter months, the boiler heating system is shut off during select hours of the day which can drop the temperature in the studio drastically.

    If you have any concerns, please schedule a tour to gauge your comfort levels prior to booking your session.
