Booking

Once you book a time, you will receive a text to download Geokey, the smart lock app. This will allow you in and out of the studio during the specific time you have booked. Every new renter will receive an e-mail with a contract that must be signed before using the studio. Please make sure you put in the correct phone number and e-mail when you book; we are not responsible if you do not receive the text or e-mail due to incorrect information.

Time + Organization

Set-up and clean-up is included in the amount of time reserved. Please book more time than your planned shoot or event so you can arrive and leave on time. If anyone leaves more than 5 minutes later than the scheduled end time, you will be billed a $30 late fee. If you end up needing more time, please check with Hayley at least 20 minutes before the end of your booked time slot. If there is no appointment directly after you, extra time can be added on for $50/hr.

Workshops + Events

You are responsible for letting people in the studio during your reserved time.
Our recommended occupancy limit for the space is about 25 people.

Rules

  • Absolutely no smoking, drinking, vaping, or drug use of any kind in the Studio. Violators will be fined $100.

  • Music must be kept at a reasonable volume, as we share a wall with a salon next door.

  • Nails, tacks, or property damaging materials are prohibited. If you need to hang anything, please use command strips or wall-friendly tape. A fee will be charged at owner discretion for spills, food, glitter, stains, items left behind, or broken items at new cost.

    • NO boudoir sessions allowed. The Studio is located on a first floor with large windows facing a busy street and sidewalk. We also don’t have bedroom furniture to accommodate these sessions.

Rescheduling + Cancellations

Every rental must be cancelled 48 hours prior to the reserved time in order to receive a full refund. Cancellations made after 48 hours notice, unless due to extreme circumstances, will have 30% of their total rental amount withheld as a cancellation fee. Rescheduling is on a first come, first serve basis and Meraki Studio cannot guarantee any certain date/time.

Parking

A numerous amount of metered street parking is available around the building. Please check meters for hourly parking limits. Park at your own risk for longer lengths of time.

Cleaning

Please clean up the space and put everything back the way you found it. Leave with everything you came in with - props, equipment, clothing, etc. If the studio is left a mess or anything is left behind, you will be charged a $30 cleaning fee.

Theft + Security

One security camera is mounted inside the studio for safety and accountability purposes. If a renter or anyone in their party damages anything within the space, the renter will have to pay for the damages. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.
