Using your Living Social Voucher:
Step 1: Go to www.studiosharem.com and create an account for yourself (username, password, etc).
Step 2: Email us at info@larissaphotography.com and let us know that you've created your account.
Step 3: Once you have your credits, you can use them to sign up for the class you choose and book the room you wish to rent. We recommend you take a class BEFORE you rent a room, as the class will give you a chance to tour the studio and learn where and how everything works prior to your rental.
How to sign up for a class: To sign up for a workshop or class, go to our website and click on the Workshops tab. Find the class you want to attend and click register. As long as you are logged in, it will automatically redeem one of your vouchers to sign you up for the class. You will noticed your credits (shown the lower right hand corner) will be reduced by one credit. If you want to cancel your registration, you must contact us at least 48 hours prior to the class.
How to rent the studio: View the calendar on our website and click on the date you wish to book. Choose a Saturday or Sunday because weekdays are reserved for our monthly members only. "A la carte" renters are limited to weekends. Choose the timeslot you wish to book and follow the website promps to complete your booking. You must be logged into your account in order to book a room. If, you need to cancel a booking, you may do so up to 24 hour prior to your session and your credit will be refunded to your account.
A little more info:
Room C, "small room" is worth 1 credit per hour. So if you've purcahse this voucher, you will receive 3 total credits (1 for the class, and 2 for the rental hours), but you may use your credits however you wish once they are applied to your account.
Rooms A and B are the "large rooms" and are worth 2 credits per hour, so if you've purchased this voucher, you will receive 5 credits (1 for class, and 4 for rental hours). You may use them however you wish.
Setup-Cleanup: Each time you rent an hour at the studio, you will be given 15 minutes before and after your scheduled time slot to prepare and cleanup the studio prior to and following your hour of rental time. So each hour really blocks the room off for a total of 1.5 hrs for you. If you do NOT clean up the studio after you use it, you may be billed a $15 fee and issued a warning. Continued abuse of the studio and/or failure to clean up may result in you being banned from further studio rentals. See instructional video when you sign up for your rental for other set-up and cleanup tips. Thank you!
Please let me know if you have any further questions. We look forward to meeting you! Thanks!
