Know Before You ShootSTUDIO
POLI-
CIES.
We built Wade Studio to be as frictionless as possible — show up, shoot, walk out. These policies exist to keep the space in great shape for every client who walks through the door. Read them once, and you're good. Most of it is common sense.
🐾 Pet Friendly Studio
Bring your furry talent — we love them too.
Need to move your booking? Reschedule at least 5 days in advance and we'll issue full studio credit — no questions asked. Cancellations inside that window are non-refundable. No exceptions.

01BOOKING & RESCHEDULING
studio credit availableno refunds02ARRIVAL & ACCESS
Your building and studio door codes land in your inbox 1 hour before your booking. Walk straight in — no check-in, no staff. The door auto-locks 5 minutes after you leave. No need to do anything on the way out.
03CYCLORAMA WALL
The cyc wall is repainted white once per week by default. If you need a pristine, smudge-free wall for your shoot, add the $80 Re-Paint when booking — it's available in the add-ons section.
Photographers must wear blue booties at all times. Talent should wear them until lighting is set. Smudges happen — we get it — but please follow these guidelines so the next client walks into a clean space.
$80 Re-Paint Add-On Available04CLEANING
Leave it the way you found it. If the studio isn't cleaned after your session, a $100 cleaning fee will be invoiced within 30 days. It's a simple bar to clear:
Garbage goes in the bin — replace the bag and drop it in the outdoor bin on your way out.
All equipment back on labelled shelves. Stands arranged neatly.
Any tape on the floor? Rip it up. Every piece.
$100 Fee if Not Cleaned05equipment & handling
Everything in this studio is professional-grade and expensive. Handle all equipment with care. Any damage from misuse or negligence is the client's responsibility — repair or replacement costs will be billed accordingly. If something breaks by accident, just let us know. Honesty goes a long way.
No Glitter · No Exceptions06OVERTIME
Running over? Text or call us at 647 525 2253 at any point during your booking and we'll add time at the normal rate — no problem.
Unannounced overtime — where you simply keep shooting past your end time — is charged at double the normal rate per 30 minutes. This is tracked by the security camera, so there's no grey area.
2× Rate if UnannouncedNormal Rate if You Call Ahead07BACKDROPS
Seamless paper backdrops are $30 per roll. Choose your colours in-studio based on your setup needs — we have 25+ options. You'll mount your own rolls on the c-stands and backdrop bar we provide. (No assistance is provided for setup — it's straightforward once you've done it once.)
$30 per roll08SECURITY CAMERA
There is a 24-hour security camera on premises. It's there to log arrival and departure times, monitor equipment usage, and protect both you and us in the event of any dispute or damage claim.
If you'd prefer privacy during your shoot, you're welcome to spin the camera around — just turn it back to its original position before you leave.
