Studio
Building a Home Studio on a Budget
You do not need a commercial lease to produce professional portrait work. A spare room, a section of a garage, or even a cleared-out living room can function as a working studio. The key is understanding what actually matters and where you can save money without sacrificing quality. Space Requirements The minimum usable space for headshots and upper-body portraits is roughly 8 feet wide by 10 feet deep with an 8-foot ceiling.
