Objection #1 — "I don't know if the space will work for my shoot"
🎬 What's actually in the space?
What kind of space is Starfall Studios?
▾
Starfall Studios is a modular creative studio in West Seattle built for photographers, videographers, podcasters, and content creators. The space is 1,137 square feet with 14-foot ceilings, a full kitchen, and a private bathroom — plenty of room for full production setups including lighting rigs, backdrops, and multiple subjects. It's designed to be flexible and reconfigurable to fit a wide range of projects.
What's included in a studio rental?
▾
Every rental includes the full studio space, professional lighting, onsite assistance, all available set pieces, and complimentary WiFi. Lighting includes 3× 300W Neewer RGB continuous lights, umbrella and lantern diffusers, a snoot/gobo set, RGB accent lights, 3× C-stands, a Neewer wall-mounted boom arm — mounted at 9 ft, arm extends up to 70.8 in (180cm), and a projector. Backdrops include a 20' modular textured system in black and white, plus seamless rolls in ultramarine, grey, white, black, sky blue, pink, and canary yellow. Bluetooth audio and a client review monitor are also on site. You're welcome to bring and use your own gear.

We set up at your office or host everyone here at the studio. Each person gets 10–15 minutes with consistent lighting and background, so there's minimal disruption to the workday.
