See the thing. Walk out prepped for your session. 15 minutes with the owner, Marc.
See 1,242 sq ft of cycloramas, and soundproof rooms. Touch the equipment. Ask anything. Then decide if it fits your project.
Marc built this studio. He gives nearly every tour himself.
The owner walks you through personally because he wants to know what you're trying to create. That way he can show you exactly what you need.
He's been featured by National Geographic twice. He built a photography business profitable enough to open Temple Star Studios. And now he spends his time helping other creatives get the shots they've been chasing.
- Tell him your project. He'll show you which room and equipment you need.
- Ask about camera settings, lighting, angles. He'll help break it down so you succeed.
- He's wants to help you decide. If you already plan on booking, he wants to help you succeed.

Marc will show you everything you need for your first booking. Free. If you want to go deeper, we also offer photography classes where you'll master studio lighting in 4 hours.
15 minutes to an hour. Depends on your questions.
Marc won't show you studios you don't care about. If you're only interested in the podcast studio, he'll skip the photo studio. This tour is about you, not us showing off.
20 minutes from Killeen. Right off Airport Road in Temple, TX.
We're inside the office of Temple Star Storage. Parking is right next to the door. Get directions here.
That's fine. Most people tour first, think about it, then book later.
No rush. No pressure. No sales pitch. This is just so you have all the information you need to decide when you're ready.
If you're a photographer, bring your camera if you'd like Marc to show you how to use it with the studio equipment.
Otherwise, bring a friend, bandmate, or anyone who needs to be involved in your decision. That's about it.
Photo studio starts at $85/hour. Podcast studio is $50/hour. Band rehearsal is $50/hour. But you can rent the music studios by the day, week, or month.
All equipment, props, and backdrops in-house. You likely only need to bring your camera. But if you're unsure what settings to use, Marc will go over everything during your tour.
See if our studio fits your project.
