THE BIG FIELD
We decided to switch to a completely automated booking system.
We are very excited about the new booking system, as now you can check the availability, select your time and date, pay right away and receive a confirmation for your booking with all the details and studio rules right away- no need to wait for our response.
You may receive an ERROR message after the payment was completed due to the way the scheduling software is interacting as a widget on the website (website bug, simply), but as long as you received a confirmation email, saying APPOINTMENT SCHEDULED – you are all good!
Give it a couple mins after the error message and refresh your email, check the spam if not in inbox, and if you haven’t received the email- GET IN TOUCH WITH ME @iamcreativespace (fb/ig) or +18135074191 🙂
✨HOW TO CHECK THE AVAILABILITY If you are looking to check the availability of the spaces or services- simply select “a service” and check out the available times.
✨HOW TO BOOK THE SPACE OR SERVICE to book your appointment: choose “a service”, pick your date and time, fill in your details, and make a payment.
❗️ IMPORTANT INFO❗️
-WE ARE NOT KEEPING ANY GAPS BETWEEN THE BOOKINGS, which means you would need to: setup, do all your shoots, breakdown, cleanup, and walk away from the location WITHIN the booked time.
If you are doing minis, please make sure to book extra time in case your clients will be running late. We are doing our best to stay as flexible as possible for you, if we will not have anyone booking after you- I am happy to give you extra time to finish, but we are getting very busy on the weekends, so I can’t guarantee any extra time in case something is not going accordingly to your schedule. Please make sure to book accordingly.
Thank you so much for reading and we can’t wait to host you✨
STYLED SHOOTS INFO
DURING HOLIDAYS we do not allow styled shoots for the regular hourly rate. You need to get in touch with us if you want to host a styled shoot in one of our spaces 🙂
LARGE GROUPS
No more than 10 people are allowed at once (minis are fine) AT ANY SPACE, unless it’s a large family.
MATLOCK, WA 98560 (full address will be disclosed at the “APPOINTMENT SCHEDULED” EMAIL).
CLOUDY/GLOOMY WEATHER
Lighting will be good anytime up to 30min before the sunset time.
SUNNY WEATHER
I wouldn’t recommend to shoot on a sunny day until GOLDEN HOUR starts 2,5h before the sunset and lasts about an hour.
Please check “LAND MAP” in the photo gallery to view the map of the property.
Perfect property for golden hour photos. In this area (orange line on the property map) you will have about an acre to yourself. Nobody would be on your way or near you. However, I would say it’s not as secluded as “WATERFALL+CREEK” or “MOUNTAIN” part of the property. It’s visible from my house and neighbor’s property.
IF YOU ARE PLANNING ON DOING BOUDOIR/UNDRESSED SHOOT IN THIS AREA…You would be totally fine doing shoot partially covered (bikini/lingerie kind of thing/sheer fabric/something like on the photo examples from this area), I wouldn’t allow going naked in this part of the property, as there might be a family/delivery/me passing by.. Go for “WATERFALL+CREEK” or “MOUNTAIN” part of the property if you want to have a secluded area.
As we are going through the “main house” remodel, I am staying in freshly remodeled “guest house”, right by the main house. I am happy to let you use my house to change, take a shower after the freezing creek, or use a bathroom at anytime 🙂 Feel free to knock or message me in case you need anything (even if you need to touch up things/snacks or water/help to watch the kids for a few min/ a dog to play to take photos with/ or anything really) I am always happy to help when I am here, and if I am not here- I will unlock the door for you to use the bathroom at least 🙂
Our studio has an amazing customer closet with lots of items! Please check out OUR CUSTOMER CLOSET FOR all the details.
I would need to know at least a week before the shoot so I can bring the dress from the studio or you are welcome to stop by to grab it from the studio in Tacoma before your shoot yourself.
For this spot, you and your clients would need to park on the gravel by the house or on the grass in the area close to it, if the gravel part is taken. You would need to walk to the area from the parking spot- it’s about 2 min walk 🙂
