Welcome to the Photo Loft - Design District! Our beautifully renovated warehouse offers 1,000 sqft of modern and chic interior, including a large living room, dining area & kitchen. The space boasts 20-foot ceilings and massive windows that flood the interior with natural light, creating a bright and open atmosphere for your photo shoot.
But the beauty of this space doesn't stop at the indoors - step outside into our backyard oasis and expand your options to include a natural setting. With ample street parking, you'll have everything you need for a successful and memorable reservation.
Please ensure you thoroughly familiarize yourself with our studio rules. Non-compliance may lead to additional charges. To ensure that these rules are upheld, we utilize Wi-Fi cameras throughout the shooting spaces, monitored by a virtual assistant. Please note, bathrooms are exempt from this monitoring for privacy.
If a rule violation is detected, a studio representative will attempt to contact you twice on the provided phone number. If we are unable to reach you after two calls, our studio's Public Address (PA) system will be activated to address the issue. In order to avoid the use of the PA system, we kindly ask that you keep your phone on and its volume sufficiently loud to receive our calls while in the studio.
A comprehensive checkout process is mandatory for all event bookings. This process includes steps to ensure ALL items, even the smallest ones, are returned exactly to their original places and that the venue is left in a respectable manner. The process is designed to be easy and efficient, taking no more than 30 minutes to complete. It is essential for maintaining the venue's organization and cleanliness for each guest.
Failure to follow all steps of the checkout process or including correctly replacing items, may result in additional cleaning fees of up to $500. A virtual assistant monitors the cameras that overlook the venue (excluding restrooms) to help ensure the checkout process is executed correctly.
To preserve the quality of our high-end furniture, shoes are not allowed on couches or beds. Any scuffs, dirt, or damage may result in charges corresponding to the cost of repair, cleaning, or replacement.
Furniture and decor may be moved. However, ALL items must be placed back in their original placement. Please do not eat or drink on our sofas to avoid spills and stains.
We require that all loud music and noise completely stop by 10pm from Sunday to Thursday, and by 11pm on Fridays and Saturdays.
You can only be in the venue during the time you've booked. This means you have to set up and clean up within this time too. For example, if your event is from 1pm to 5pm, everything needs to happen in those hours. If you come too early or leave too late, there will be extra fees.
There is ample street level parking next to the studio. Do NOT park in the reserved parking lot next to the studio or you could get towed.
You'll receive a confirmation email after booking with us, which includes a link to comprehensive access instructions, complete with useful visuals to guide you smoothly to our studio.
Feel free to decorate the space for your event! However, please note that you are not allowed to use tape, nails, glue, or anything that may cause permanent damage or discoloration to our walls, floors, ceilings, etc.
We are pleased to provide five 48-inch plastic round tables and 28 matching white chairs for your event at no additional cost. However, you must return them to their original storage location precisely as you found them. Our garage is where these items are conveniently stored. Failure to return the tables and chairs to the garage in the exact same way you found them will result in a $200 fee. Alternatively, you may bring your own tables and chairs to avoid this rule.
Yes, you are allowed to hire a DJ for your event. However, if your event is booked in the evening, you must ensure that all music stops by 11pm and that the venue is vacated by 12am.
Our backyard area is spacious and beautiful, making it the perfect spot for a bounce house and extra tables and chairs. Additionally, you can use our driveway area for a food truck or another bounce house. Unloading any large items is easy with the gate in the backyard.
Yes, absolutely! You can book a tour with us by clicking "15 minute tour for Appreciation Venue".
If you're not ready to take a tour yet, our website has loads of pictures and a cool virtual tour. It's almost like being here in person, and it could help you decide before booking.
Yes, kids are allowed in our spaces.
As much as we love animals, pets are not allowed at any of our studio or event space locations. If we find evidence of a pet being in the space, we will charge a $500 fee.
This studio is on ground level and does not require an elevator.
Photo Loft Design District Light is approximately 1400 sqft.
Yes, we have two restrooms in the venue. One located by the kitchen, and another in the master bedroom.
Early entry into the venue is prohibited. You will only be allowed to enter the space at your official event start time. Set up and breakdown activities should be completed within your scheduled event time reservation.
All cleanup must be completed during your scheduled event period. This is necessary because we may have another event booked immediately after yours or the following morning.
Our space is located in the quiet area of Dallas Design District, with low traffic. Ample street parking is available. There is also a large reserved parking lot in front of the location, but we cannot guarantee parking in it, as it belongs to the large office tenant next to us. If your reservation is scheduled after standard business hours or on the weekend, you may be able to permit guests to park in the lot. However, if the office tenant is using the lot, guests cannot park there, as they may be towed.
Please note that we don’t provide any monetary refunds in case of cancellations. However, we offer credits that you can use toward booking a future event. The credit amount is determined by how far in advance you cancel your booking: If you cancel 60 days or more prior to the event, we will grant you 100% of your payment as credit towards a future event. If you cancel between 59 and 30 days prior to the event, we will grand you 50% of your payment as credit towards a future event. If you cancel between 29 and 15 days prior to the event, we will grand you 25% of your payment as credit towards a future event. If you cancel less than 15 days prior to the event, no credit will be granted. Please note that these credits are only valid for future events and cannot be converted into cash refunds. The credits will expire after 180 days if not used.
Our policy does not allow direct rescheduling of events. If you wish to change the date of your event, you will need to cancel your current booking first. Upon cancellation, you will receive a credit according to our cancellation policy, which you can then use towards booking a new date. Please refer to our cancellation policy FAQ for more information on our credit system.
Our kitchen appliances may be used to warm up food, but you are not allowed to cook food as we want to avoid oil splatters.
Proof of insurance is required at least 7 days prior to your event. The specific event requirements will be included in your confirmation email after booking. You are responsible for obtaining general liability insurance that protects our space from damages, as well as additional coverage based on what you plan to do and provide during the event. For instance, if you will have alcohol at your event, you must add insurance covering alcohol-related incidents.
Our maximum occupancy for the property is 50 people.
