I am a big fan of this space. It is the perfect medium sized studio space that Knoxville really needed. Parking and load in/out was easy. The space was large enough to accommodate the 20 individuals I took portraits of and was comfortable enough to get the shots I was looking for. I really enjoyed having a green room right off of the studio that my clients could use to make sure they felt their best before stepping in front of me and my camera. I really look forward to next shoot at this space.
