DescriptionEstablished and well-known photography studio offering a wide range of professional sessions including pets, pet + owner portraits, family photography, actors’ headshots, and student athlete media days. The business also provides on-location photography services, creating multiple revenue channels beyond the studio.
This is a fully operational, turn-key business with a trained 1099 staff of 5 plus the owner, allowing a new owner to step into an organized system with established workflows, repeat clientele, and strong referral traffic. The studio maintains an active book of business supported by a proven promotions system that consistently generates new bookings while retaining loyal returning clients.
The sale includes all professional-grade equipment necessary to continue operations immediately: digital cameras, lenses, lighting systems, modifiers, backdrops, sound system, computers, and editing software.
LOW RENT = HIGH MARGIN FOUNDATION
The business benefits from exceptionally low rent — under $1,000/month including parking — creating a rare low-overhead structure that significantly improves profitability and reduces risk.
The landlord is open to offering a new direct lease to a qualified buyer, providing long-term stability at below-market occupancy costs.
