Turn your vacant Photo Studio into income:
I am a landlord in New York City and I use Storefront to list my space. I have had so many inquiries from brands looking for retail space for rent.
Storefront is a great service. It is easy to use and gives you a 45-day free trial. I listed my space and it now has more than 50 bookings.
I have been using Storefront for about a year and I am very happy with the results. My space has reached thousands of potential renters in Paris, and I only listed it on Storefront. The team is very helpful.

Creating and publishing a Listing is free, and the Basic tier is free forever. However, Basic allows only three inquiries per month. To stay visible in search results all month and receive unlimited inquiries, you need a paid Starter subscription. You can upgrade at any time – go to Accounts and Settings > My Subscriptions.
Basic tier Listings are hidden from search results after your account receives 3 inquiries in a month. They remain accessible via direct link, ongoing conversations, and your dashboard. But they won't appear in the Storefront search results, where most inquiries originate.
A live Listing visible until you hit the monthly 3-inquiry limit. No payment details required. Ability to receive inquiries and manage conversations. Secure payments on the Storefront platform. Your Listing goes live again automatically on the 1st of the next month when the inquiry limit resets.
Storefront takes 20% of the rental price as a transaction fee, but only when a booking is successfully completed. This fee is the same on Basic and Starter plans. This comes out of what the renter pays. When you set your price in the platform you will clearly see how much you will receive per transaction.
Storefront offers a free 45-day trial of the Starter subscription for new users. Once your Listing is published you can activate your free trial by going to Accounts & Settings > My Subscriptions in the Storefront menu. When you upgrade to Starter you will not be charged for the first 45 days but after the 45-day trial has ended you will be billed for the next month unless you cancel before the end of your trial.
After 45 days you will be moved onto the Starter plan and automatically billed for the next month. If you cancel before the trial ends, your Listing will move to the Basic tier at the end of the trial, limiting your account to three inquiries per month.
Yes. You have two options: upgrade to Starter and your Listing becomes visible again immediately, or wait until the 1st of the next month when your inquiry limit resets and your Listing goes live again.
No. All Listings are reviewed by Storefront. Duplicate Listings, if approved, automatically fall under the Basic tier unless upgraded. The free trial is only available to each Listing Owner once.
The subscription is a monthly price that varies by country. In the United States it costs $49 a month. Prices for other countries are similar but vary slightly depending on currency, with multi-Listing discounts available.
It takes less than 5 minutes. Start now and follow the on-screen steps to create your Listing.
You can use the chat function to speak with renters in the platform. After you have worked with us for a while you will be able to speak directly with them by clicking the 'Request To Call Back' button. Please note: This functionality is not available to everyone and we reserve the right to remove it if we feel it is not being used responsibly.
It usually takes 3-7 business days to process your payment.
Once you have confirmed your availability with the contact, you can click the button that says 'Arrange a visit'. Here you can suggest multiple dates and times that the brand can select.
A broad range of brands and renters use Storefront to find venues and spaces for their projects. From high street apparel to high end showrooms and corporate events. If you make it clear in your Listing what types of renters your space is most suited to, you should only receive inquiries from renters within your target demographic.
We do not organise viewings if you manage the Listing. The best option will be for you to arrange your own viewings with renters. If you would like Storefront to manage your listing (including visits) please let us know and there may be a fee involved.
All types of commercial real estate perform well on the Storefront platform. Anything from retail, photo studios and art galleries, to showrooms and warehouses. We attract a broad range of renters looking for all manner of use cases, both short term and long term.
If the brand wishes to rebook, please instruct the brand to go back to the Storefront Listing and rebook. This is part of Storefront's terms and conditions of usage and if you do not correctly follow this process we reserve the right to pursue any guilty parties for breaching the terms and conditions.
Yes, you can refuse a project if you feel the inquiry does not suit you or your Listing.
Once your listing has been published on Storefront you are immediately visible to potential renters and able to start receiving inquiries. Make sure your listing has great photos, accurate pricing, and up-to-date availability. You can also Boost your listing for a monthly subscription to ensure your listing appears first when renters search.
Photography studios have hard costs that don't care whether a camera was picked up that day. If your studio has hours or days when it's not in use, listing it on Storefront converts that idle time into a direct income stream, without disrupting your own work schedule.
Commercial photographers needing a studio between their own bookings are the most frequent renters. Fashion photographers, e-commerce brands building their product catalogue, advertising agencies producing social and print campaigns, and content creators who need a professional environment are all active on Storefront. In major markets, demand for quality studio space is consistent throughout the year.
Studio rental income depends on your location, size, equipment, and available hours. Studios in major cities with professional lighting setups and cyc walls typically generate strong hourly and day rates. Even a few bookings per month from outside clients can meaningfully offset your studio's fixed costs: rent, equipment maintenance, and utilities.
Serious photographers and brands compare studios carefully before booking. Your listing should include: studio dimensions with ceiling height and shooting depth, power supply details (amps, socket positions), natural light information, equipment included in the rental (lighting rigs, backdrops, seamless paper, gels), and changing room or client waiting area access. Detailed listings book faster.
Create a free listing, set hourly and day rates, add your availability calendar, and go live. Storefront manages booking requests, tenant verification, and payment, so earning from your studio's idle hours requires almost no ongoing effort.
