The Pros and Cons of Hosting a Photo Session at a Studio
Pros + Cons of Studio Photo Sessions
A couple of weeks ago I shared a few less-than-obvious pros and cons when it comes to scheduling a brand photo session in your own home or office.
While there are definite perks to opting for an in-home session, there are also drawbacks!
Missed that post? Catch up on it here!
But what if your business operates fully remote?
Or if you simply don't want to deal with the cleaning and extra work to prep your office for a photo session?
Uncommon Collaborative now operates its own photo studio for these exact reasons! The Collabratory is over 1,000 square feet of blank canvas where we can create the aesthetic of your dreams!
Better yet, the option to hold your session here is included in all photo packages. However, it wouldn't be fair to only share the pros and cons of an in-home/office session without sharing the pros and cons of a studio session!
Keep reading to explore a few of these!
PRO —
A blank canvas
No matter the aesthetic or vibe you're envisioning, The Collabratory is a clean slate, complete with white-washed brick, big windows, white walls, and faux-razzo floor.
Since the studio is intentionally styled minimally, the opportunities to customize it to your brand with textiles and props, and utilize strategic lighting techniques are endless!
CON —
Bring your props & outfits in and out from your car
The downfall of a studio session?
Physically bring your props and outfits in and out the studio.
You don't have to do it alone -- I meet you at your vehicle to help you load everything in, but it does take time to gather everything, pack it, and load it in your car.
Plus, having to unpack and put everything away once you're home.
PRO —
No clean up after!
Not only will a Collabratory Studio session provide with you a clean slate to show a polished version of your business and personality, but you won't have to deal with any clean-up after!
After your session, you get to head home, put up your feet, and relax! Showing up as your true self on camera can be tiring, but it's so worth it!
