Creative Shooting Space / Photo Shoot Studio in Hawthorne
Spekulor's Creative Shooting Space is strategically located near the 105, 405, and 110 Freeways, making it incredibly accessible for any level of production. Situated just 1 mile from SpaceX & Tesla Design Center, 6 miles from LAX, and 4 miles from the beaches, it's a prime spot for Southbay productions.

This studio provides an abundance of natural light and the option to blackout the space completely. Furthermore, we operate as a comprehensive rental house, offering an extensive range of lighting and camera equipment for your production needs.
Our studio features a 1,000 sq. ft. White CYC wall pre-lit with Aputure RGB P300c Nova lights, allowing you to instantly transform the background into a green screen or any color of your choice. The studio's makeup/dressing room is connected to a charming Tiki bar in the back of the building, which can be added to your production for extra space or shooting opportunities.
Within the unit, you'll find conveniently located bathrooms and a full-service kitchen equipped with essential appliances, making it a versatile space for various creative projects.
