Studio features

In the spring of 2018, we suddenly found ourselves having to leave our cozy studio in downtown Algonquin.  At first, we were miserable over the thought of having to leave our business home, but we soon realized we had an amazing opportunity to create our dream photo studio.  After a few months of searching, we found our ideal new spacious 3,250-sq foot studio in Crystal Lake. We’ve spent the last 8 months hanging backdrops, creating custom features, hunting through antique stores and barn sales for great pieces and creating a space where Ron can create beautiful photos for seniors, dancers, and families. Our studio isn’t done and we doubt it ever will be. Instead, we’ll be continuing to bring in new ideas to make great opportunities for the people who come to us for their portraits.

Our 3,250 square-foot photography studio in Crystal Lake is the largest studio in the Chicago suburbs. We offer family portraits, senior portraits, dance, headshots, and model comp cards.

We can accommodate groups of up to 45 people or more in one image. We have a space in the front to see your images when you come in for a viewing session. The photography studio has a number of different backdrops for our clients to choose from. Our reclaimed wood backdrop is the most popular right now. Clients also like the urban decay corner, the gray wall, and the industrial corrugated metal wall. We have two permanent Marley dance floors set up, one in white and one in black. For your convenience, we have two changing rooms and a large wardrobe space. Our studio include a 12-foot trampoline, great for gymnasts, cheerleaders, dancers, and athletes.
