Will there a max limit of photographers that you will offer this service to?
If it got to 10 members, that would be the limit. As a member you can purchase an additional 3 hour blocks for $50 to $100. At the rate I’m offering, it's less that's $30 hour for 24 hours of studio time, plus equipment, a mailing address and you won't find that service anywhere else . I think if a photographer can't make money out of this place at this rate they should quit photography because they will never make it in this biz. I want people to profit out this space, so I set it up for success.
What if I need to do a shoot that is more than 3hrs?
Each member is allowed to purchase time slots over and above your monthly membership.
What if I just want to do one 6hr shoot a month, can i do this for the monthly membership fee?
The answer is Yes. It will count as 2 time slots.
Can I bring my own stuff (lights, equipment, props) and leave it in the Studio?
That is totally up to you , we will not be responsible for anything left at the studio.
