Awesome space. Must be nice to have that much space available just for shooting, and to have the ammenities at the studio as well. Looks as nice and well equiped as many folks homes do.
Question........ what is the black thing hanging from the ceiling to the right of the window? Just curious.......
Thanks for sharing the shots. Beautiful artwork by your office as well. What size are they?

Thanks to trentchau for the awesome idea. I ended up going to home depot and getting the pergo flooring. The carpet in my studio is pretty thin so it worked out great. Best of all, it was on sale for 30 dollars a box. Came to 90 before tax. http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b18/joecirca79/britestud.jpg
Joe excellent shot!... Lol you saived $25 a box over me! I might go back next weekend and see if they have them on sale or not.

The prints are 40x50's on metallic paper. They are a couple of images that the Coleman Company puts on their catalogs and exponent packaging.
I'm told that the black spot hanging from the ceiling is for aiming at the disco ball hanging from the ceiling for parties. I'm very interested to try it out.
I got the floor installed today. You were right is really easy and straight forward. It just snaps in place. It took my wife and I about 2 hours to install about 150 sq ft of flooring at a cost of about $140. Not bad.
The instructions say you should stagger each course, but considering how I using it, I didn't think it was needed. Since it isn't staggered, you can see seams when you are standing on the floor, but they are not visible a foot away. I left my camera at home and won't get a photo of it till tomorrow.
Anyone else wanting to do this, be aware that there is a special tool that you can use to help tap the boards in place. It is a plastic block with a lip on it. I highly suggest you buy one (about $6). It will make installation MUCH easier.

I finally got around to shooting some pics of my new studio.
Shooting Area-but the whole studio can be used if need be. Full body head to toe can be had with a 200mm. My office is behind the French doors.
WOW! Now THAT is studio! Probably that nicest studio I've ever scene.
Will do, but the background stand goes in front of the office and you shoot lenth wise in the studio. It's long enough to use a 200mm for full length shots.
I wish it was a little wider, but I'm just being picky. Overall I'm very happy with the space. It's never a bad thing to have a client friendly space.
Thanks, Brent. Where do you store your equipment? And what is behind the curtains? Mirrors? Or is it another room?
I'm considering a similar space. But, I was concerned that it might be too narrow or that the support posts might get in the way. If it looked as nice as your space, though, I would reconsider.
It's just a mirror behind the curtains. I store my equipment in my office closet and safe. I too like a wider rectangle shaped space, but after shooting a couple of things in this one. I'll be happy with it as is or at least for the next year since I have a year lease.
I'm very lucky, the space just went through a redesign right before I rented it. I don't have any dimensions other than the square footage which is 1715 sq. ft
I'm new to photography and knowing what type of equipment and setup people use to take those amazing studio pictures would be extreamly helpful! Someone please post!!!
