Way North Studio started with the two of us!

Hi !! We’re Emilee + Ryan!!

We wanted a space of our own to create, grow our businesses, and give all of our ideas a little more room to exist. A home base here in Marquette, MI, where we could photograph, shoot content, try weird ideas, and keep pushing our work somewhere of our own!

This space gives us the freedom to create year-round, take on bigger projects, and keep building Way North into something that feels like us, while also keeping it local!

While it is our creative home, we’re excited to share it with other creators too! Whether that’s collaborating with artists or opening our doors to someone who needs a space to bring their idea to life, we’re happy to have a place to make cool things with good people. Way North!!

What we offer

We’re here to make good things with good people. From brands + products to portraits, campaigns, and everything in between, we create photo + video that feels natural, thoughtful, and a little more like you. In the studio or out and about, we’re just happy to be a part of it all.

Way North Studio is available for studio rental in the heart of downtown Marquette, Michigan.

Whether you're photographing a client, creating content, shooting products, filming something new, or working on a project that doesn't quite fit into a box, tell us what you're making.

Our studio is available by inquiry only, so we can make sure the space works for you, your team & whatever you've got planned. Please read through our FAQ + Terms & Conditions before inquiring!


Once your inquiry lands in our inbox, we'll review your project, check availability, and make sure the studio is a good fit. From there, we'll send over the details, pricing, and next steps to secure your time.

Submitting an inquiry does not reserve the studio. Your date is officially yours once your rental is approved, you sign the agreement, and we receive the required payment.
