Lars and Amy come from field and studio production, and there is little they won't do to make sure their clients' needs are met. Lars is an excellent jib owner/operator, and both keep cool heads when catering to client production needs - be it operating the lighting board, routing signal to monitors in green room + front office, or instructing how to use the rock star coffee machine! The sound stage area is 40'x60' with a little bit less than that as usable space due to curve of the white cyc. Truck load in area is fantastic - all one level, pull truck inside. They provide set storage two warehouse doors away. Control room and audio mixing room are well designed and always being amended as necessary, with cable runs where they need to be. Great sound insulation on set. They also work with local fly pack equipment vendors. Area is handy to plenty of catering and food options. Worth the drive from DC - it's hard to find a large professional sound stage around here, and Thundershot provides one. Colleagues I have sent here have had the same great experience. Highly recommended to anybody looking for a sound stage in the DC area.

We were incredibly fortunate to be invited here in May 2025 for my dogs to a part of the second annual Stanley Pup production. My younger dog ultimately got picked to be featured, however the kind staff helped look after my older dog during filming. The studio was adequate including meeting rooms, kitchen area and the actual sound stage. If the opportunity ever arose again I wouldn't hesitate to come back here.

Phenomenal! Our experience working with Lavon for our wedding videography was more than we could…read morehave wished for. He captured the happiness of our wedding day through his expert-leveled detail to attention and skill. Lavon was very prompt and communicative with us throughout our wedding day, making sure to capture intimate and representative recordings without bombarding views of the ceremony or interrupting our guests. He was such a pleasure to work with, and our guests loved working with him too! Overall, as we look back over the years at the work that Lavon recorded and produced for us, these videos (highlight video + feature length video) of our wedding will always have a special place in our heart as they symbolize, so beautifully and impeccably, the beginning of our journey of wedded bliss.

She took more than enough pictures and while I had a definite idea of what I wanted to do, she was able to come up with some great twists and other ideas that really made the final product that much better. After the shoot, I got access to my photos online which gave me great flexibility in how I would use my pictures. Overall, great experience and I'd highly recommend.

Before the shoot, we talked in detail about what kind of shots I wanted and where I would like to take them. She gave me lots of options. We did the shoot in a park near the Potomac. Jennifer took her time and never seemed in a rush - she really wanted to make sure I was happy with the pictures. She had the photos edited and online for me to view/download super quickly! And they came out lovely. I have used them for professional avenues and on Facebook, etc. I've never had so many "likes"! They are beautiful photos, and I will definitely use Girard Images in the future!

This review is going to sound a little over the top, but it represents how genuinely wonderful this…read morecompany is. They have an amazing selection of equipment, perfect for the film shoot we were on. Their rental process is smooth as butter, fast, and convenient. Sign a couple little forms, pick your gear up, and just drop it off when you're finished. Prices were some of the best I've seen from rental companies as well. All of that is fantastic, but here's the best part: I'd accidentally left one of my own microphones with them when I dropped off their gear. The next day I flew home to California. My gear is across the nation, and I'm helpless. But these guys saved me. They wrote me, initially notifying me that I'd left a piece of my gear with them, and then proceeded to send it back to my home, free of charge, no questions asked. I was blown away. That is service at the highest level. So I have one piece of advice for you: do anything you can to work with this company. They are amazing.
