our story

2006 - We IMAGINED a dilapidated circa 1900’s lodge hall as a building that would someday stand tall and proud again. Creating functionality was as important as restoring authenticity. After a challenging 10-year restoration project, 821 York was awarded best adaptive re-use of a historic building in the river cities. The building has become our focal point from which we have built our business and now proudly share with others.

2013 – Before the full restoration was complete, our shared studio concept was CREATED. We became a destination for photographers, videographers and creative agencies. The passion to work together as husband and wife helped drive us, providing opportunities for creatives to grow their own businesses felt heartwarming, caring about each person’s experience when they walk through our doors was natural. We are committed more than ever today.

2023 and beyond – Our goal is to continue being a light that guides. We encourage creatives to imagine the unimaginable, create uniqueness, and INSPIRE others.
