When the Sun’s Unreliable, We’re Not.
We love natural light — when it plays nice. But let’s be real: it’s unpredictable, inconsistent, and totally unbothered by your session timeline. That golden hour glow? Blink and it’s gone. Cloudy skies? Washed out. Harsh midday light? Forget it.
That’s why at Jackalope Photo Studio, we don’t rely on it. Sure, we’ve got one window in the studio and three big ones in the front lobby — but we are not a natural light studio (and we absolutely love it).
Our setup uses professional constant LED lighting that gives us total control — soft, flattering, color-true light that looks amazing on every skin tone, every time. (And is super easy to use by just clicking it on and positioning it!) No matter the weather, time of day, or season, your photos will glow like magic. Consistent. Intentional. Unapologetically bold.
So forget chasing the sun. We’ve already captured the perfect light — and it’s waiting for you in Edgewater, MD.

Constant light with the ability to change the RGB of it just by downloading the Lume Control app. You can adjust the warmth and brightness on the dials on the back of the light.
Another constant light with the ability to change the RGB of it just by downloading the Lume Control app. You can adjust the warmth and brightness on the dials on the back of the light.
This light is perfect for you to use for headshots, portraits or even to let a hair/makeup artist use while getting hair and/or makeup done. It has two flexible heads on it to move around, warmth and brightness is adjustable.
Rolling LED Window Wall
This light transforms the atmosphere from harsh overhead lighting to soft, natural light with just a click. You can easily dim the light from either the top or bottom, and the wall can be repositioned anywhere in the space. Measuring 8 feet tall by 9 feet wide, this wall serves as a versatile backdrop or light for any photos you want to capture.
If the plain walls aren’t cutting it for your vision, don’t worry — you’ve got options. Dive into any of the statement backdrops below — complimentary and ready to elevate your shoot. They’re 8ft tall by 12ft wide and made to fit only on the wall with the bed.
But here’s the real talk: you’re on deck for setup and teardown. These beasts don’t work with the standard stand that’s set up in the space — that one’s strictly for paper rolls and milestone backdrops. For these, you’ll need to grab the larger stand from the prop room and get it up on the bed wall.
Need tools? Clamps are in the rolling cart in the prop room by the door (baskets are labled), and there’s a steamer in the prop room if you need to smooth things out. Make it look sharp — you’ve got this.

Milestone shoots are hands-down some of my faves — and if seamless paper isn't your vibe, I’ve got a curated stash of bold, personality-packed backdrops for you to play with.
They’re yours to use, but here's the deal: you set it up when you get here, and you tear it down before you leave. No exceptions. Plan your time accordingly — no scrambling at the last minute.
Each one is 80" wide by 60" tall and fits perfectly on the backdrop stand that’s already waiting for you in the space. No guesswork, just grab and go.

Seamless Paper Rolls
We’ve got a solid lineup of seamless paper rolls in the studio, and yep — they’re yours to use, free of charge. Just don’t be that person. If you use one, roll it back up, tape it shut, and return it exactly where you found it. No excuses. No mess left for the next artist.
If you burn through a roll or it’s basically toast, tell me before you leave so I can swap it out. And if you trimmed any scraps or finished off a roll, take your trash with you. There’s a dumpster out back, so please put it out there.

Milestone Props & Other Options
I have a TON of props in my prop room. There is everything from cow hide rugs to wooden soda crates to small chairs for milestones, birthday signs, one letters and disco balls. EVERYTHING in the prop room is free to use as you wish so have at it! I will be posting photos of some of my favorite options below, but there is more in the space so ask
