    I needed a photo studio SUPER last minute for a photoshoot launch and I am SO happy I came across Kate and her space. This place is gorgeous and perfect for your minimalistic needs. It just so happens that she has a looot of props as well which was exactly what I needed for a “grandma vintage” photoshoot. I highly recommend this studio space to anyone!
