“Oh how I love this space! Not only is it a beautiful event space - or studio in my experience - it’s so open and versatile! I’ve photographed so many beautiful moments at Sanctuary and will absolutely continue to do so. Working with Lauren has been wonderful! She’s attentive, super helpful and friendly, no question is ever too much or too silly. I’m looking forward to working with her more in the future. Highly recommend - for almost anything honestly, I just love the Sanctuary Studio!”
