Planning photos can be stressful if you’re unsure on some of the finer planning aspect, that’s why I’m here! I’ve created a list of great spaces around Toronto you can book at for your next photoshoot!
The number one advantage is weather! Weather can be unpredictable, a studio space will offer controlled temperatures and a comfortable environment for you.
Lighting is another key thing to think about – with the weather comes the ever changing light. Overcast days are the perfect days to shoot outdoors, but on a hot, sunny summer day, things can get tricky for both the photographer and the client (talk about watery eyes)! Studio spaces are set up to have the best natural lighting, and some offer lighting equipment to help achieve the best look you’re looking for.
There’s space to freely set your items aside and relax, do any outfit changes you want, and some locations even offer hair & make-up spaces for any touch ups and on-site glam!
Props – many spaces have props such as chairs and couches that come with the space so you can be comfortable and make it interesting!
Washrooms. That’s it. just washrooms 😉
