All you need to do is contact us using this form to start the booking process. Our studio manager will be back in touch quickly to get your request all squared away.
The experience at Just For The Record is full-service, which means our staff will be available throughout the booked time. That can make rescheduling complicated depending on the timeframe. Let us know if you need to reschedule, and we will do our best to accommodate your needs.
Payment can be online or in person, at a rate of $65-$125/hour with a 4-hour minimum, so you can really get some work done. The rates vary based on studio selection, equipment rentals, and setup. Contact us for more details about your specific booking.
We ask that sessions are paid for in advance, but the client experience is our priority, so reach out if you need additional support.
