About the stage:

Stage C was a choice of this creative collective for several reasons. Besides a tremendous space capacity perfect for both, large crews and small teams this stage provides a white CYC wall that is always freshly painted for each client. In addition to the prop count, a grass wall and a wood floor corned section installed for your creative exploration. With large South and East facing windows, this stage gets lots of natural light throughout the day. Find out more about stage C on our WEBSITE.

About the shoot at FD:

This shoot meant a lot to me. It was kind of like a coming out party or some what of a reintroduction. I haven’t been in front of the camera for over two years due to the pandemic but it felt great to be back. It felt like home. I absolutely love FD studios. You guys are amazing. I will definitely be shooting again very soon. Thank you guys so very much once again.
