Location
Our proposed location has an ample amount of space at 1800 square feet for our shooting space, office, and meeting area. The location is very easy to access being just off of Wyandotte Street and right near Broadway Street and the Broadway Bridge. The studio space has all of our needs already there: kitchen area, living area 210 West 5th St. Suite 102, Kansas City, and office space in the upstairs area, MO so we dont need any construction done to the space.
Monthly Expenses
We predict the summer months of May-August will bring in the most business because that's considered "wedding season". We will be slower in February and November due to colder weather. We think December and January will be favorable months because businesses will be having office Holiday parties that they will want to have photographed.
