NB: Closed for Lockdown. Pls check back once restrictions have been lifted. Stay safe!!!
Attention Shutterbugs!
Stunning ground floor heritage hard loft in downtown Toronto. Corner unit with south east exposure and 16 foot ceilings. Loft has exposed red and tan brick, dark hardwood floors, pharaonic windows (x4), a massive chalkboard, heaps of books, thriving plants, and tons of character. Space is ideal for:
* Photography/videography (lifestyle, social media, etc.)
* Small client meetings
SOUTH EAST EXPOSURE
The three large transom windows w stained glass are east facing, the other window, with the manzanita branch, is south facing.
COVID and PARTY SIZE
Due to Covid, hosting more than 4 ppl is MUCH more costly since there's more potential of virus exposure and there's also more wear and tear to the space. Per pricing below, each additional guest over 4 is $70 (firm!).
PRICING (2 HOUR MINIMUM)
$60/hr (Monday - Thursday)
$70/hr (Friday - Sunday/evenings/holidays)
$70 for each additional person above 4 (max: 6 ppl)
$400 for 6 hrs w 4 ppl (semi private; host able to stay quietly in bedroom)
$500 for 6 hrs w 4 ppl (private/no host)
*Six + hours is subject to a MUCH higher rate (w Covid closures, it's challenging to find safe, warm places to work)
PERMITS
If host is asked to sign a permit for film/photos to be monetized, extra fee applied.
OVERTIME (OT)
Setup and tear down time must be factored in start/end time. To encourage guests to reserve accordingly and to minimize last minute OT requests, OT rates are:
* $45: extra 30 minutes
* $90: extra hour

Sheryl's space was easy to find, easy to access and her place was exactly as pictured. She had very strict COVID 19 rules which is great & puts guests at ease when entering. The space itself was clean, bright and beautiful and just what we were looking for for our shoot.
