Welcome to Wallis Studios. We’re a photography studio based in the west Costa Mesa neighborhood, just 5 mins from the beach! We think you’ll find us unique amongst southern California studios for several reasons:
Size really does matter
It's a recession -give me a break! Look what happened to Annie Lebovitz!
Who needs a massive bloated 12,000 ft studio with twenty assistants hurrying around? Why pay for that? I host a stylish 1300sq. foot studio with high ceilings, comprising of a large shooting area, a changing-room/make-up area, and a comfortable lounge (with shag carpet!) to entertain clients, or hang out during shooting. We want you to feel like the studio is your own.
We’re flexible
Wallis Studios is available for one day or up to a week. Rental clients include Oneil surf wear, Lost, Fox, Rusty and Split clothing, People Magazine and MTV, Paul Frank, Silver Star , USA Today , and Inc. Magazine.
Or you may be a freelance photographer or stylist just needing a fully-equipped studio. We can accommodate your needs.
We’re fully equipped
We have multiple colored paper backdrops for your use.
We have parking and security (alarm and patrol) so you can safely leave your set-up and equipment overnight.
I do have lighting for an additional $25/day: 3-4 Speedotron Blackline strobes and 1 softbox, umbrellas; also pocket wizards.
Lower Day Rates:
Rates are $200 for a 1/2 day (four hours or less) and $350 for up to eight hours.
Shooting late? No problem: for up to 12 hours the flat rate is $500.
All rentals require a signed agreement
Full payment is due on the day before usage. We happily accept credit card through Paypal.com paid in advance.
Want to shoot it yourself but you're not a pro?
Let me guess: you have a Canon Rebel (or Nikon equivalent) and want to shoot it yourself... I can set the lights up for you and meter the lighting no problem. I have done it many times for renters!
If not, I am also an established professional photographer. My portfolio is here
