To officially lock in your date on our calendar, we require a signed contract and a 50% non-refundable retainer fee. Please note that inquiries, consultations, and verbal agreements do not hold a date. Dates are strictly booked on a first-come, first-served basis once both the retainer and contract are finalized.

The remaining balance of your chosen Collection is due 14 days prior to your event date.

In the event that you book your Collection with less than 14 days remaining until your event date, 100% of the total payment and the signed contract are due immediately at the time of booking to secure our services.

We understand that unexpected circumstances arise. If you need to cancel your booking entirely, please notify us in writing as soon as possible.

The Retainer: Because we reserve your date exclusively for you and turn away all other inquiries for that time slot, the initial retainer fee is strictly non-refundable.

Balances Paid: If you cancel your event after your final balance has been paid (within 14 days of the event), that final balance is also non-refundable, as we have already allocated staffing, prepared custom graphics, and finalized logistics for your day.

If your event date changes, we will do our absolute best to accommodate your new timeline.

Availability: Rescheduling is completely subject to our current studio availability.

Transferring Fees: If we are available on your new date and you notify us at least 21 days prior to the original date, your initial retainer fee can be fully transferred to a new date within 12 months of your original scheduled date at no extra charge.

Unavailability & Extended Timeframes: If you request a date change and we are unavailable, or if the new date falls more than 12 months past your original event date, the request is treated as a cancellation. In this scenario, the retainer fee and any balances paid are forfeited.

Absolutely. We love supporting meaningful causes and giving back. While we cannot always accommodate fully donated services, we are highly committed to partnering with registered non-profits, foundations, and charitable organizations.

If you are planning a fundraising gala, community event, or charity initiative, please reach out to us. We will work closely with your team and committee to find a creative, high-impact solution that respects your budget while maximizing the studio experience for your guests and sponsors.

To maintain a completely seamless booking experience, we accept all major credit and debit cards, secure ACH bank transfers, and digital bank payments via Zelle® for Business.

Please note that we operate on a secure, completely digital payment system and do not accept cash or personal checks. Corporate/organization checks are gladly accepted for commercial bookings.

Depending on the Studio Collection you select for your event, we offer instant digital delivery directly from the studio interface as well as high-resolution, customized prints.

Digital Suite: Guests can instantly receive high-resolution photos by scanning a custom-generated QR code or selecting text/email delivery, ensuring their content is on their phone within seconds of stepping out of the frame.

Prints: If you would like your guests to take home stunning physical prints, printing options can be included in your booking. We offer the classic 2x6 photo strips as well as modern 4x6 print formats, outputting beautiful keepsakes in seconds.

Post-Event Digital Gallery: Following your event, a complete, high-resolution digital gallery will be delivered to you. As the host, you have total control over privacy and can easily set custom permissions - whether you want to keep the archive exclusive to you or open up access for your guests to view and download.

To see which Studio Collections include digital-only delivery and/or physical prints, please explore the Studio Collections section of our website.

A dedicated Studio Host is included with every Collection to manage the technical operations, encourage guest participation, and keep the setup pristine.  From seamless delivery and setup before your guests arrive to full-time hosting during the event, your Studio Host will handle every detail so you can actually enjoy your celebration.

We take a highly curated, modern approach to props and are proud to provide a sophisticated selection of high-quality, elevated kits designed to complement your event:

The Editorial Kit: Our signature base prop kit, featuring a sleek selection of high-quality items. Whether your vibe is minimalist and chic or delightfully goofy and high-energy, these pieces ensure every photo looks clean, polished, and beautifully produced.

The Premium Kit: A next-level, immersive collection of upscale accessories and modern elements automatically included with our premium tier Collections. This kit introduces heavier-weight materials, high-concept custom signs, luxury eyewear, and statement pieces that invite guests to play and pose.

If you choose a base Collection but want to level up the aesthetic, our Premium Props are always available as an added enhancement.

If your event has a specific creative direction or theme, we are happy to consult with you to source custom props that perfectly match your vision.

Because we utilize an open-air studio design rather than an old-school, enclosed box, the sky is nearly the limit. Our standard footprint comfortably accommodates groups of 6 guests in a single shot, but with a little creative posing, we have easily fit larger bridal parties and corporate teams of 12 into the frame!

Travel is completely complimentary for all events located within 30 driving miles of our studio base. Because we measure by actual road miles via Google Maps rather than a straight line on a map, this ensures we account for realistic travel times and route logistics to your venue.

To help you determine if your venue is within our standard service area, we use the Hamline-Midway neighborhood in St. Paul as our central reference point for our 30-mile travel limit.

If your venue is located further out (such as parts of Stillwater, Hudson, or outer-ring locations past 30 driving miles), we are more than happy to travel to you! A standard travel fee of $2.00 per excess mile (calculated round-trip) will simply be added to your Collection proposal to cover the additional time on the road. 

Space: A flat, level 10x10 footprint with a minimum 8-foot ceiling clearance is required for optimal studio setup. This ensures ample room for the studio, your chosen backdrop, a styling table for props, and comfortable spacing for your guests to queue and pose.

Power: Access to a dedicated, standard 3-prong electrical outlet located within 15 feet of the studio setup area is required to ensure absolute technical stability and prevent any power interruptions during your event. 

Wi-Fi Connectivity: A stable internet connection is required for real-time digital sharing features (Digital Suite Text/Email/QR Code delivery). If Wi-Fi is weak or unavailable at the venue, digital files will be stored in the queue, and will automatically upload and deliver to guests after the event concludes.

Absolutely, we love an outdoor event! However, because our equipment is highly sensitive to weather and lighting variations, outdoor setups must meet a few strict conditions to protect the quality of your images:

Shelter: The studio must be placed on a completely flat, solid surface (concrete, pavers, or a solid deck - never raw grass or dirt) and be fully protected under a stable tent or pavilion.

Elements: The setup area must be completely shielded from direct sunlight (which causes harsh shadows and equipment overheating), wind, and potential rain. This will also help us optimize lighting so your guests look stunning!

Power: A reliable, safe, and dry power source must still be accessible within 15 feet.

If you are planning an outdoor celebration, let us know during your consultation so we can help you coordinate the perfect layout with your venue.

We offer a stunning menu of in-house backgrounds tailored to your event:

Editorial Seamless Backdrop: Our classic, clean backdrop choice. This ultra-smooth matte setup provides a crisp, timeless studio look in essential editorial tones (Black, White, or Gray).

Premium Tension Fabric Backdrop: Our signature offering. Wrinkle-free, high-quality fabric is stretched perfectly taut over a commercial-grade frame. This creates a flawless, shadow-free portrait background, available in our stock palette or expanded color options.

Custom Design Integration: We love collaborating with you, your venue, or your event planner. From lush botanical walls and custom neon signs to elegant double-rod textile draping, we seamlessly integrate bespoke elements into our studio setup.

Absolutely. We love collaborating with clients, florists, and event designers to bring a unique, custom vision to life. Whether you are using a custom floral wall, a branded corporate step-and-repeat, or a vintage architectural element, we are more than happy to shoot against it.

To ensure the final images meet our studio’s high production standards, we just ask that your custom setup meets a few baseline criteria:

Sizing: To fully fill the camera frame and accommodate group shots, the backdrop must be at least 8 feet wide by 8 feet tall.

Placement: The background needs to be placed on a completely flat, level surface with a standard three-prong power outlet located within 15 feet of the studio setup.

Lighting & Safety: If your event is outdoors, the custom backdrop must be placed in a fully shaded area protected from direct sunlight, wind, and harsh elements to protect our studio equipment and ensure flawless, consistent photo lighting.

We take great pride in a polished, seamless experience. Our team arrives approximately 45–60 minutes prior to your operational start time to ensure everything is perfect. Following your event, we require 30–45 minutes for teardown. This time is completely complimentary and does not count toward your active rental hours.

Please note: To ensure a smooth load-in and load-out, we kindly ask that you confirm with your venue coordinator that our studio space and loading areas remain accessible and available during these windows, immediately before and after your event.

To keep your event flow seamless, we offer The Intermission add-on for idle time. Our idle time service is booked in 1-hour increments to ensure seamless integration with your event schedule. We are happy to distribute these hours into 30-minute segments throughout your event to perfectly match your venue’s transition times. This is perfect for two specific scenarios:

Early Setup: If your event has an early "doors open" time, you may prefer our team to be fully set up before your first guest arrives. Use The Intermission to have the studio installed and "production-ready" well before the event begins. We will complete our setup in advance, allowing us to remain on-site in a ready-to-operate standby mode until your active studio time begins.

Mid-Event Pauses or Early Closures: If you prefer the studio to be inactive during specific moments—such as speeches or formal presentations—or if you would like the booth to close before the event concludes, The Intermission is the perfect solution. We will pause operations and remain quietly idle, ensuring there is no visual distraction or noise while your guests are focused on the festivities. We stay discreetly on-site until it is appropriate to resume operations or begin our departure.

Idle time during The Intermission is billed at a lower, non-operational rate so you can seamlessly control the timeline of your day.

Events that extend past midnight or require overnight booth placement are handled on a case-by-case basis. Because these timelines introduce unique security, staffing, and breakdown logistics, they require a deeper consultation during the booking process so we can customize a timeline that works flawlessly for your venue.
