Share Studio Space

Daniel — Thu, 22 Dec 2011 17:33:56 +0000

I’m looking to share studio space in the Pdx area with other photographers who have a small hourly need each month for studio use. Either a studio that’s up in running that would like to share some expenses or I’d be interested in spearheading a new location/warehouse setting, lots of set areas and splitting the costs among 4 to 6 shooters.
