The Photo Kitchen

Glass Fusing Workshop at The Photo Kitchen.
July 13, 5:30-7:30.

I recently had the chance to make my own piece in this glass fusing class, and I’ve been thinking about it ever since. There’s something really special about slowing down, playing with color and light, and creating something entirely your own.

We’re excited to host another Glass Fusing Workshop at The Photo Kitchen, this time with a Christmas in July twist!

Come spend an evening making your own seasonal glass piece in a relaxed, creative setting. It’s beginner-friendly, totally hands-on, and such a fun way to try something new.

Grab your bestie and join us for a fun evening of colorful glass fusing and laughs!

We’ve been creating and collaborating at The Photo Kitchen for a few years now… and we just finally got our sign up and held the ceremony!

A huge thank you to everyone who’s been part of this journey, our community of photographers, chefs, and creatives has made this space what it is today. Here’s to many more years of bringing ideas to life!

We’re so excited to officially celebrate .photo.kitchen with a ribbon cutting with on April 7 11-1 at 1190 Forest Ave.

As Portland’s first boutique, membership-based rental photography studio + kitchen, this moment feels extra special. What started as an idea has grown into a creative space for photographers, chefs, and storytellers to come together, and we couldn’t have done it without this incredible community.

Along the way, we’ve hosted workshops for crafters and even welcomed a cooking podcast into the space, bringing so many creative disciplines under one roof.

Join us as we mark this milestone, connect, and take a look inside the studio. We’d love to celebrate with you!

“I had an amazing experience working with Lauren. From the very beginning, she welcomed us with such warmth and professionalism that made us feel comfortable and inspired.

The space was perfect for our podcast recording—clean, well-organized, and filled with a positive atmosphere that truly elevated our work. On top of that, the photos she took turned out incredible and beautifully captured the essence of our experience.

What stood out the most was her genuine support and belief in our vision. That meant a lot to us and made the entire experience even more meaningful.

I highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a high-quality space and a great person to work with. I’m definitely looking forward to collaborating again!“
