Comment: Inconsistent at best. Some studios are great, others not so much. Depends on where you shoot and who is working. Good luck reaching anyone in management should you ever need to ( You will)

Comment: Okay experience. It was our first time in the studio and we came in to take digitals, though the employee working was of little assistance. We did call ahead and let them know we were taking digitals, and they also didnt have white backdrop paper, which is just kind of a must at any photo studio. Would have been nice to have received an advanced notice about that, otherwise we would have gone ahead with a different studio. Overall good experience.

Comment: The owners lied to us a bout a few things...the gated parking lot that put us behind 20 minutes. The strobes that were not equipped with receivers, and there were no *extras such as fans and whatnot as described by the website. Also the power and wiring in my particular studio, Studio A was inadequate to the point it could have been illegal ie. less than 15 AMP circuits...When i brought these things to the owners attention he smugly played it all off and insulted the intelligence of the people on set that were a bit less technical to know what was really going on..DO NOT pay for this place unless you plan on using natural light thats about all its good for and frankly there are better places out there in the same 5 mile radius.

Comment: I dont normally write bad reviews but I do when I need to. I am a fashion photographer from San Diego, California shooting for 6+ years, and I usually rent photo studios in the LA area, and Ive rented from numerous ones in the LA area. I had a photo shoot with 2 models from a modeling agency in LA, and I needed a studio. I always like trying out new photo studios just so I can find the best one. Let me tell you, I AM NOT COMING BACK TO FD PHOTO STUDIO EVER AGAIN! Horrible service, false advertising, dirty, all of the above! I first came in, and theres this big guy with glasses listening to his headphones on the computer. He tells me my total for 4 hours is going to be $120+ and I saw on their website $19.99 an hour. I know it says starting from $19.99/hour but I saw photos in their studio gallery that even says STAGE B: $19.99 STAGE C: $29.99, Its like dont write those prices there if you dont want people to get confused with your prices. I mean they are not even specific with their prices. No where does it say their actually prices. It just says starting from... which can get people really confused, which is why I was confused. He then didnt clear up anything for me. He just said yeah.. its on our website. I was already in a rush, so I didnt care and just went inside the studio. I came in STAGE B, and there is absolutely NOTHING set up. They said they would accommodate me based on my shoot, but nothing was set up. Not even the roll paper, or anything! They dont have much in the studio as other studios Ive tried. I like CONCRETE STUDIOS in LA a lot! They have a lot better equipment and furniture. This FD PHOTO STUDIO place only had 1 table! 1 table! And it was mainly for the make up artist! You think 1 table is enough for a whole team? And their music player was so broken, it was very muffled, and kept stopping. Their clothes rack was about to break. I started to set up my lighting and roll paper, and as I was rolling down the white roll paper, I saw it was very dirty, with foot prints all over it, and then when it reached the ground, THERE WAS NO MORE PAPER! I mean come on! What kind of place is this?! I then went over to that big guy with glasses in the front desk, and hes like ohh... i guess the guy from yesterday forgot to change it out.. and hes like do you want me to change it? and Im like uh duhh! and so he gets up very slow, he must be tired or something, because he was moving in slow motion, and grabs some paper and changes it. It took him awhile, so I asked if this was coming out of my rental, and he said ehh, i might be able to add 10 minutes to your time.. I was like what am i going to do in 10 minutes?! go to the bathroom?! Haha this guy was ridiculous! Then he went back to his computer and put on his headphones again. I assumed he was listening to music. I had to roll the paper down myself! Didnt even want to help me! Like I said, go to CONCRETE STUDIOS LA! They help you with everything and stay there to accommodate you with anything you need! This guy here at FD PHOTO STUDIO is just bored out of his mind. Its like he hates his job. Didnt want to help me at all. I rolled the paper down myself and then guess what? He doesnt even offer tape or anything to secure the paper! So I had to walk outside again and ask him for tape and hes like Oh yeah... here you go.. and then I taped it down. And then I started to set up the lights. All they had was these cheap Alien Bees. No Profotos or anything high end. And then I went outside to ask the guy again if he has a boom. Hes like uhh.. what boom? Im like has this guy ever seen a studio before? he then grabs me a boom in the back, which is so unorganized with materials and photo equipment, and then I ask him how to put it on, because it was a weird looking boom, and then hes like you dont know how to put it on? and Im thinking if you had any decent customer service at all, you would help me put it on in the first place! I just want to say: SAVE YOUR MONEY, SAVE YOUR TIME! NEVER GO TO FD PHOTO STUDIO!

Comment: Awesome studio for a great price. I used FD for senior portraits for one of my clients. The space is way more, and far nicer, than I expected for the price. All of the free extras saved my client and me a lot of money, which we were very happy about. I am so glad I found this place before spending more money on a studio that’s less impressive.
