Finding this space was right on time, great price and it was perfect lighting. While the images make the space look bigger than it is, it's still spacious and was enough room for 10+ of my crew for our photoshoot. It's easy to find, secured location, and Nicole was very accommodating and helpful. Thank you so much and I would definitely book again.

Cindy's home was absolutely beautiful! It's spacious, modern, and looks just like the photos. We were able to create three distinct settings in her home, and the outdoor space was very useful for catering and holding. The living room has two massive french doors to let in the fresh air. Cindy was very helpful with arranging parking at a nearby church, and was there on-site during our entire shoot to help us as needed. So lovely working with her, would definitely book again!

Arbi was an all-around great host! We could not have had a better experience. He was responsive to texts and emails, considerate, resourceful, and beyond accommodating. The house was beautiful, of course, and spacious, with room for talent, parking, staging, and base camp -- all in one location. There was plenty of street parking, and nothing to distract us. Would definitely recommend and would definitely consider working with Arbi again. (Oh! And the E.T. house is not too far away.)
