Thursday, October 29th · 8:00 AM – 7:00 PM (Open to All)
Von Creative · 137 Koonce Fork Road, Unit F, Richlands, NC

Can you feel it? The crisp snap in the air, the scent of fresh-cut evergreen, and that electric "Christmas morning" magic already starting to hum. At Von Creative, we aren't just getting ready for the holidays — we're building a world where they come to life.

We've gone bigger, bolder, and more immersive than ever before. Two full days of work with a team of 6 designers and builders to create seven brand-new, high-production sets we've spent months dreaming up to make your portfolio shine and your bookings soar. From the cozy warmth of a farmhouse kitchen to the high-fashion drama of a velvet-drenched dreamscape, we're bringing the senses of the season into our 2,000-square-foot sanctuary.

Here's how it works:

Day One — Tuesday, October 28th: The Member Appreciation Night

5:00 PM – 8:00 PM · The Member Appreciation Night 🤍

The member community day. A premiere before the Première — with light bites and good company, surrounded by the seven sets we built with you in mind. Come early, stay late, wander the sets, and get your test shots in. Because you're not customers to us — you're the reason this place exists.

• Who: Active members only (membership must be active on Oct 28th)

• Time: 5:00 PM – 8:00 PM

• Cost: Free — this one's on us, because you're family 🤍

• Spots: Open to all active members (not limited to 2 per block — come when you can within the window)

• RSVP: Watch your inbox for your invite and RSVP so we know you're coming

One sweet note: If you snap photos on the 28th, they're yours to keep and yours to plan with, but member social posts wait until October 29th. For us? We're keeping the sets under wraps on all our channels until Monday, November 2nd. 🤍

Day Two — Wednesday, October 29th: The Holiday Première

8:00 AM – 7:00 PM · Open to All — Studio Content Day

This is the first chance for non-members to step inside the seven sets. By joining this ultra-exclusive group of just 8 photographers, you get the first shots, the first rights to launch content that will stop the scroll and fill your calendar.

The Schedule (2-Hour Intensive Blocks)

• Block 1: 8:00 AM – 10:00 AM

• Block 2: 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM

• Block 3: 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM

• Block 4: 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM

(Note: Each block is separated by a 1-hour Refresh & Reset to ensure every set is pristine for your arrival.)

The 7 Holiday Environments

We've gone bigger and more immersive than ever before. This isn't just decor; it's storytelling.

1. The Modern Kitchen — flour on the counters, the frosted window, and the organic warmth of "home for the holidays."

2. Outdoors In — a lush, evergreen forest feel brought inside our studio walls for that perfect winter magic without the cold.

3. The Farmhouse Vibe — neutral tones, cozy textures, and a timeless, rustic elegance that lets your clients' outfits pop

4. The Red Velvet Overload — high-fashion, bold, and unapologetically editorial. This is the set for your "wow" moments.

5. The Holiday Bed — soft linens, twinkling lights, and the pure joy of Christmas morning.

6. The Cozy Corner — the fireplace, the arch, and the feel of a room you don’t want to leave

7. Victorian Christmas — brown velvet, a candlelit tree, and old-world elegance wrapped around our 1923 baby grand piano.

Outfit Guide

Why the Première?

We've poured so much care and a year of planning into these seven builds so you can pour yours into what matters most: your clients and your craft. On the 29th, the room stays small, just two photographers per block, so the space feels like yours alone.

But here's the real reason the Première exists: these sets aren't public yet, and they won't be until Monday, November 2nd. The outfit guide you've seen is your styling preview, palettes and looks to plan by. The spaces themselves? Those stay under wraps until then. No studio posts, no website gallery, no look book. If you shoot the Première, your content is the first this season sees, hitting feeds before a single other photographer has captured a sneak. A regular rental gets you studio time. The Première gets you the head start.

It's designed as the perfect format for mini-sessions: a quiet sanctuary where you can compose your shots, work comfortably with your models, and walk away with a full season's worth of marketing content in a single afternoon. Content that becomes the engine for your longer sessions all through November and December.

Every Première ticket includes:

• First-access shooting across all seven environments

• Exclusive early access: images of the sets stay off our channels until Monday, November 2nd. Your content leads the season

• A $50 studio credit toward your next booking: our thank-you for being first

• The launch kit: simple prompts, caption starters, and posting ideas to turn your first-look gallery into booked sessions

• First pick for 2027: Première photographers get first choice of next year's Première blocks before tickets open to everyone

The Investment

• $150 per ticket

• Extremely Limited: Only 2 photographers per block. (8 tickets total for the entire day).
