Our Story

Lumina Studios began as a humble dream in the heart of Isabella Rossi, a visionary photographer with over two decades of experience capturing life's most precious moments. Isabella, a native New Yorker, always felt the pulse of the city's vibrant creative scene. She envisioned a space where both seasoned professionals and budding artists could come together, share ideas, and bring their photographic visions to life without the constraints of limited resources or uninspiring environments.

In 2010, Isabella's dream materialized into Lumina Studios, a haven for photographers located in the eclectic Chelsea neighborhood. Initially, it was a single, modestly sized studio equipped with basic lighting and backdrops. But Isabella's unwavering commitment to quality and her dedication to fostering a supportive community quickly transformed Lumina Studios into a thriving hub for photographers of all genres.

We've invested heavily in cutting-edge equipment, ensuring that our clients have access to the latest technology and tools to achieve exceptional results.
