This place is AMAZING. It is filled with all kinds of props for every style! We didn't have to take along anything as their are so many options available!

Jackie K.

This space is awesome! My friend and I did a 1920’s flapper themed photoshoot and it fit the vibe perfectly. Thorough directions were given prior to our shoot and everything went so smooth. There’s also a parking garage RIGHT next door which was so convenient and the rate to park was pretty cheap! The girls who greeted us at this location were so sweet and extremely accommodating. Highly recommend this fun, eclectic space for your next project!

Morgan S.

Great space. Very helpful and good for our production!

This loft was perfect for our women's fashion shoot. So glad we found it and it was available. The windows with the city views and the natural sunlight into sundown made for some beautiful captures. The space was very clean and so many great angles. Working with Mary was so seamless and she made things so easy. Very accommodating and helpful in everyway. Her on site manager was so friendly and helpful with every question or need we had. Loved this space. 💖
