Joining us for your holiday portrait?

See below for helpful session FAQs & prep tips

Where should I park?

There’s free street parking along Yosemite Ave. Our building is hosting a building wide holiday sale this weekend, so please give yourself ample time to find parking before your session start time.

What happens if I’m late?

We understand things happen and although we’d love to accommodate everyone who is late, we have back to back sessions Saturday-Monday. If you are running more than 5 minutes behind, you’re welcome to still stop by the studio and we will try our best to fit you in. Please understand you will likely need to wait for space to open up and/or we will be unable to fit you in.

Can I add on session extras in person?

YES! We would love for you to add on any extras on the day of your session. Prints, keychains, ornaments, and polaroids will all be available for add ons.

What should I wear?

Dress however you want and whatever feels comfortable for you! Please see the color swatch (pictured on the right) for color suggestions (not requirements). IMPORTANT NOTE - ALL PHOTOS WILL BE TAKEN SEATED SO PLEASE ENSURE YOUR OUTFIT FEELS COMFORTABLE FOR A SEATED POSITION.

How many people does the session include?

As a reminder, your session may include a maximum of 4 people. If there are more people in your group, you will need to sign up and pay for an additional session.

Are pets allowed?

We love our fur babies but unfortunately due to the backdrop set up, we aren’t able to have them in the studio this time.

What does the backdrop look like?

See image on the right - the backdrop is a tan draped fabric. Because of the material, we ask that you be EXTRA mindful while stepping on and off of the set as it can be slippery/

When will I receive my images/prints/add ons?

On the same day of your session! You will need to wait for the prints/add ons to be ready so we may ask you to tour the other building studios and/or wait in our waiting area while we prepare your items.
