The Studio must be cleaned and vacated by the end of the rental period to respect each Creative’s time and efforts. Set up and breakdown times must fall within the total reservation period reserved.

This overtime charge applies to all guests/clients in your reservation. This also applies to reservation start time, you may arrive up to 10 minutes early, we ask you to be mindful of the reservation wrapping up ahead of you. If you arrive more than 10 minutes ahead of schedule, the card on file will be charged the overtime fee rate listed above.
CANCELLATIONS:
We understand the need for flexibility when “life happens”. Creatives can cancel reservations up to 24 hours prior to start of rental period and receive credit to use towards a future rental with no additional charge. We do not offer refunds for cancellations; this credit will expire in 90 days. We do not offer credits or refunds for cancellations less than 24 hours from start of rental period.
Upon cancellation, you will receive a credit for the quantity of hours booked or the dollar amount purchased for 4-HR, 6-HR or 8-HR reservations that can be applied towards a future reservation.
Please note - 4-HR, 6-HR or 8-HR reservation hours cannot be split up and used separately.
UNUSED HOURS:
We ask that you only book the number of hours needed when making your reservation an hourly or day reservation. We do not offer partial refunds for unused hours. This pertains to the 1, 2, and 3-HR reservations as well as the 4, 6, and 8-hour packages. This is because, you have booked that slot making it unavailable for others to reserve.
NO CALL NO SHOWS:
The Studio is not responsible for no-call/no-show clients or renters. Failure of a client to attend a scheduled session does not qualify for a refund, credit, or rescheduling outside of the existing cancellation policy.
WHAT HAPPENS IF MY SHOOT ENDS EARLY?
