The Studio
The Studio space is spacious ~2,100 sq. ft., on a first-floor in San Mateo, CA, just off Peninsula Ave. It’s the ideal location to bring your holiday visions to life in the heart of the Bay Area.
Our studio features semi-sheer window coverings, allowing soft, natural light to flood the holiday scene at the front part of the space. For the additional themed areas, continuous lighting is set up, but feel free to adjust it to suit your needs.
Step into the festive spirit with our five themed holiday sets:
A charming, rustic hot cocoa stand with vintage touches, offering a nostalgic setting perfect for enjoying a warm cup of cocoa while capturing timeless holiday moments.
A warm, inviting living room setup that perfectly captures the joy and togetherness of the holiday season, ideal for family photos.
A whimsical bohemian-inspired teepee setup with cozy, festive decorations, ideal for creating a relaxed and stylish holiday atmosphere perfect for photos and family fun.
A cozy, egg-shaped chair adorned with red and green garland, sparkly lights, and plush throws, creating a cozy, festive setting. It is the ultimate snuggly spot for a pajama-themed holiday photo shoot, perfect for relaxing and capturing playful, intimate moments. This is a very warm and inviting scene.
A rustic outdoor playhouse with a cozy, wintery charm, providing a magical, nature-inspired setting where kids can play and families can capture festive holiday memories.
While you’re here, enjoy complimentary Wi-Fi and Bluetooth speakers to fully immerse yourself in the holiday ambiance. The space is equipped with a small bathroom, a clothing rack, a table, mirror, and more to help you create your perfect shoot. Please note, however, there is no changing table available, nor a separate changing room.
