Now that I've relocated to Los Angeles and have started photographing models all over the city, I want to recommend some of the coolest locations I've found on Peerspace. From lofts to bungalows to poolside mansions, these locations span a wide range of prices to fit any budget. Click on any image or headline below to take you to the location's full details on Peerspace.com, including more photos, house rules, and booking info.
I'd love to shoot at one of these amazing locations with you! Or find another one that's the perfect fit -- there are endless possibilities in LA.
Pools under $100 per hour
The Modern/Mid-Century Pool (Sherman Oaks)
This is a classic mid-century home! From the rough finish of the pool bottom to the bright yellow floor cushions. It's the perfect scene to wear high-waisted bottoms, a crop top, and some vintage shades. The fruit trees, lush foliage, and natural stone backyard convey the feeling of a Mediterranean villa.
3 hour minimum
The Spanish Villa Resort (Beverly Grove)
Just imagine leaning up against these pillars, and having that tiled artistry as your backdrop. This space calls for a picnic of charcuterie, a bottle of vino, and a bowl of olives.
Outdoor space only, 4 hour minimum, no nudity allowed
Chic Mid-Century Bachelorette Pad with Bonus Pool! (Canoga Park)
This place could be right out of a West Elm ad, and the pool is stunning! This place is chic enough to pull off a more polished look, as compared to the other vintage and boho listings I’ve highlighted in this post.
1 hour minimum
Balinese Pool with Outdoor Shower! (Redondo Beach)
This place is truly looks a gem. The red tone of the outdoor shower would pop with a white bikini! For all my spiritual clients out there, the buddha statues and related décor will bring across your serene nature. Read some tarot cards by the pool and bring all your crystals.
4 hour minimum, No Nudity
Classic LA
Pop Art (Downtown)
Ever wanted to be in a pop art painting? Look no further! This space is LOUD! POW! WHAM! BAM! KAHBOOM!
2 hour minimum
The Jungle (Downtown)
This space has a ton of fun props and details. I’d love to see an evening gown draped across the couch or some minimalist silk lingerie. Fleur du Mal comes to mind.
4 hour minimum
The Perfect Amount of Pink (Downtown)
A sun drenched loft with a light and airy feel. The gold accents and modern furniture in pale tones give it a girly, yet eclectic vibe. If Blair Waldorf had a daughter, this would be her college bachelorette pad.
2 hour minimum
Southwestern Bohemian Loft (Downtown)
This place has so much natural light and I adore vibes . The textures of wood, the warm colors of the rugs, the furs laid over the furniture -- it’s all a perfect Southwest feel.
2 hour minimum
Groovy 1960s Loft (Downtown)
Bring your bell bottoms and go braless! This space is a Sixties dream. Better grab some tweed at a vintage consignment shop, change your name to Betty, and put your hair up in curlers before booking this space.
2 hour minimum
Girly Bungalow (Venice)
I love the peachy vibes of this home, and the outdoor patio is super quaint and cute. Such a relaxing space to photograph through a window or bring some of your favorite books as props.
2 hour minimum
UPDATE after I photographed a model at this location
Pros: super cute, well decorated, amazing lighting, well propped, easy parking, nice host.
Cons: tight space, backs up to an ADU that is not a part of the venue (fairly private, but not completely)
Diner Date (Central LA)
After a show and some drinks, everyone likes a late-night meal. Let’s do a shoot in an evening gown slurping on a milk shake and eating a burger. Or maybe you want to go girl next door and get some girlie sun glasses and some denim hot shorts!
2 hour minimum
Off-the-Beaten Path
Romantic Bungalow (Silverlake)
This is such a California house with all the best textures and patterns to boot! The outdoor space and windows allows for a voyeuristic style to be achieved easily, and the bright blues will make an image pop. The photos of the location don’t do this space justice compared to the editorial images in the gallery.
1 hour minimum
Harbor Haven (Newport Beach)
The art, the bright whites, the bar! Bring all your Vineyard Vines and J.Crew wear and pack a lobster roll for good measure!
2 hour minimum, No Nudity
Baroque of Color (Studio City)
There's too much fairy-tale goodness here to put a name to it, and I only have room for one photo. The price is on the higher side, but it would be well worth it to share the space with another model. There's plenty of room to spread out in, or even do a duo cosplay.
3 hour minimum
Moroccan Dream (Valley Village)
Wow! This space is absolutely breathtaking! All the exposed bricks, the antiques in the back house, just wow! This space is a 10/10. I can’t wait to create some incredible images at this location.
3 hour minimum
11:11 Vintage Cabin (Eagle Rock)
This place is right out of a movie set. The outdoor space leaves nothing wanting with that canyon view, and the floating fireplace is an incredible addition.
3 hour minimum
Fly Private (Boyle Heights)
I’ll take a glass of champagne and an initiation into the Mile High Club please!
1 hour minimum
Desert Acreage (Pearblossom)
This place has such amazing scenery and really cool props. Dommes: bring a whip. GFEs: bring your hiking books. Glam girls: bring your couture. Project your brand onto this landscape
3.5 hour minimum
Outdoor space only
Natural Light Studios
Light on Dark (Downtown)
This space gives me serious Leibovitz vibes. So much opportunity to create some incredible editorial style shots here. Those textures on the walls and the shadows on the floorboards will provide so much to play with.
1 hour minimum
A Menagerie of Options (Downtown)
So many fun and different things: a swimwear in front of the foliage, gladiator sandals with a satin dress in front of that terra cotta wall, layering white lace on white lace… the possibilities are endless!
1 hour minimum
Light and Airy (Downtown)
The flower wall, the clawfoot tub, the textures: there's such an eclectic girly vibe to this place. I see Honey Birdette in this studio’s future.
1 hour minimum
Mansions
White Whale (Pasadena)
Splurge on this location, or share with a few other colleagues. This place has plenty of room to spread out and get completely different looks for multiple people. Plus, can you imagine the duo potential?
2 hour minimum
Hilltop Paradise (Ventura County)
I love the modern look of this mansion. It has a beautiful staircase, contemporary vibes, and the outdoor space is INCREDIBLE! The view alone is work a click! The minimum rental time for this location almost requires to share with a colleague.
6 hour minimum
Mansion on a budget (Glendale)
This space has a lot of variety and some amazing outdoor space! The views out the windows are expansive and the funky vibe will certainly make a statement.
2 hour minimum
French Chateau (Koreatown)
Bring back glam in this huge house! The staircase is quite alluring. The red room adds the illusion of royalty. And that outdoor space with the pool. I’m swooning!
2 hour minimum
Patio Envy (Woodland Hills)
This place has such an incredible outdoor space. Lets make some cocktails to sit by the bar, pour some vino in a glass and waltz through the lavish hanging plants, or Sunbathe nude beside the pool.
2 hour minimum
Modern Mansion (Westchster)
This place is a sanctuary with clean lines and a gorgeous bathtub. Stop by Lush to get your favorite bath bomb colors, bring some milk, or load up on flower petals. So many looks to do here!
