1. Snap inspiring shots at an authentic hard loft studio

No list of indoor photoshoot locations in Toronto would be complete without featuring at least a few of the city’s numerous gorgeous lofts (we will be featuring a few!), and this authentic and beautifully decorated loft studio is a perfect example.

It boasts tons of natural lighting with Southeast exposure, as well as 16-foot ceilings. The loft’s warm and inviting aesthetic incorporates exposed brick, hardwood floors, a huge chalkboard, and plenty of plants and books. 

Another perk that comes with renting amazing venues through Peerspace? User reviews! Most spaces have reviews from past renters right on the listing page for you to read before you decide to book. And this lovely loft has plenty of glowing feedback!

Here is one example: “Very beautiful space! Sheryl was really communicative and answered all the questions we had prior to our shoot. Instructions were really clear for accessing the space and clean up etc. The space itself is just like the photos and really aesthetic, perfect for a photoshoot especially with all the natural lighting we had during the time of day we booked.”

2. Master your culinary shots at this natural and bright industrial hard loft

The aesthetic is a nuanced one, with white walls, curated decor, neutral furnishings, and plenty of lush plant life throughout.

While it boasts many looks and can serve as the setting for many types of lifestyle shoots, we’re obsessed with the kitchen! It’s easy to see how chef portraits, cookbook photos, and other food photography can come out beautifully here.

In the happy words of a Peerspace reviewer: “Great setting – biggest draws were the amount of natural sunlight the location gets and the styling of the loft itself. Would book again.”

For those planning to hold their indoor photoshoot in a real home, this three-story, Scandinavian-inspired home is likely to be a hit. With three bedrooms and roughly 2,000 square feet of space, you’ll have tons of backdrops to explore during your photoshoot.

We especially love this home’s all-white color scheme and gorgeous gas fireplace. The home is also a convenient location in the East End near numerous Toronto film studios. We can picture photographing a lifestyle shoot here, with the home’s modern, sleek backdrop elevating a brand’s products exceptionally.
