They guide you through the process and encourage washroom breaks when time allows it. Cons - tickets are not guaranteed. You might find out you got in a week prior (up to a day before). Don't plan a trip banking on being a part of a live audience. PLAN AHEAD! Ellen shows start accepting reservations over 2 months in advance. ANYWAYS, Steve Harvey is HYSTERICAL and MOTIVATIONAL. I am really glad I was able to check out one of his shows.

Got scammed here…read more Bought their used 600d light for $550. Tested it at their shop it worked. Take it straight to set literally an hour later, doesn't turn on. Immediately text the owner to let him know. Had to send talent home and cancel the shoot. Show up next day, they test it, it doesn't turn on. I'm extremely polite, not blaming them at all. I'm saying let's work something out. They had another identical unit that worked. I offered to add cash to exchange the dead one for the one that worked. Staff seemed hard working and normal. The owner though got immediately confrontational and tried to get me out of there. I remained calm and asked him to put himself in my shoes and work something out with me that was fair. Nope. He immediately accused me of lying, put words in my mouth, accused me of threatening him ( what? ), etc. Well here's how I know I got scammed aside from just bad business. He claimed multiple times that in 20 years in the biz that he's never had the 600d break on him ever. He goes "You probably dropped it" ( I did not ). When I offered to go half and half to cover the damage he literally said "It costs $500 to fix that light I don't want it, we tested it, you bought it, it's your problem". He said the dollar amount confidently, not a random number, he said $500. Meanwhile the talent is waiting for me on set I'm running super late. Super stressed out. No apology of any kind by the way. I beg for at least a free 1 day rental, he immediately accuses me of trying to swap the bad light for the good one ( what? ), but finally to get rid of me agrees to 1 day of free rental ( $75 value ), puts a $500 hold on my CC, I shoot return the light. Well here's the fun part, he sends me to the repair shop ( Lux ) that he says "will fix it for sure". Just got the estimate from lux. Guess how much. $514 ( light has multiple issues ). So if he's NEVER had a 600d go bad in his 20 years in business how did he know the repair was gonna cost exactly $500? Lol. If I had to guess he plugged in the good one during the test and slipped me the bad one. I have no proof of that but I'd bet my house that's what happened. But what I do know for sure is that he treated me like some lying scammer homeless bum off the street, super rude, disrespectful, unapologetic, couldn't care less that he wasted my time, money, and ruined 2 days of my shoot. Having a keylight to not turn on on set in front of talent and makeup and client is extremely stressful and embarrassing to have to send them home, they drove 2 hours each way to get to the location. I'd stay away from these guys at all costs. If anything goes wrong you'll get treated like trash. Would have been one thing if I had it for a week. But for it to not turn on after 1 hour is crazy. I told lux unless they wanna do me a favor and half the repair cost due to the circumstances that light will have to go straight in the trash can. Lesson learned.

23 Years Later... Still the Best!…read more Jose Martinez was our wedding photographer 23 years ago, and that's when we first fell in love with his work. His talent, attention to detail, and ability to capture emotion so naturally left a lasting impression on us. So when it came time to plan our daughter's quinceañera this summer, we knew exactly who to call. Jose is not just an amazing photographer, he's a genuinely kind, patient, and thoughtful person. He made my daughter feel comfortable and confident during the photo sessions, and the way he captured the joy, love, and beauty of that day was simply magical. Every photo tells a story, and we're so grateful to have those memories preserved so beautifully. Thank you, Jose, for being part of two of the most meaningful moments in our lives. Your work is timeless, and so is your heart.

This space is stunning!! I worked on an event at this location last week and I was thoroughly…read moreimpressed with the beauty and attention to detail. The studios aren't very big but they are functional. One studio has a U-shaped Cyc wall and an overhead lighting grid and the other studio has a basic lighting grid as well. Practically every inch of this place is straight out of your Pinterest aspirational decor board. Even the bathrooms are gorgeous (gold toilets, I kid you not)! The exterior walls are instagram worthy as well. There is also a secure gated parking lot with direct access to the studio for easy load out and they have equipment and even some set pieces that you can rent. In addition to being beautiful this studio is CLEAN. The bathrooms are clean, the kitchen is clean, the Cyc wall is flawless, etc. There are makeup stations with lighted mirrors though they are a bit short, better suited for talent doing their own makeup than for a makeup artist to use as a station. TLDR; this studio is beautiful, classy and functional. If you have clients that you want to really impress then this is the space to rent for your photoshoot or event.

I showed up thinking they'd be open at 8 only to find out they opened up at 8:30. Why? I'm not sure. Be advised there's a good chance there's going to be someone out there asking if you are there for anything related to registering a business. He's very friendly, but he's not with the county. He's there to hawk his company that will help you with anything legal in regards to your business. I came in to get my son's birth certificate. The young woman who helped me out was once of the nicest government employees I've ever dealt with. I was dreading getting the form thinking it would be like going to the DMV, but once they opened, the line really moved along. And like I said, the service I had was A+. If I ever need any other forms, this will definitely be the location I go to. I'll just be sure to get there knowing they'll open at 8:30. Not 8.
