Location Details
Gnangara, in Perth's northern suburbs. Ground-floor unit with off-street parking, easy load-in and freeway access. Established light-industrial pocket approx. 25 minutes from the CBD. No competitor of comparable size in the northern corridor.
Potential
Significant untapped upside. Weekend, evening and public holiday hire are underutilised. Workshops, events, memberships, equipment hire and in-house production are all unexploited revenue streams. Weekday rates sit at market despite this being the largest space of its kind in the northern corridor, leaving room to move on price. No advertising has ever been run: every booking to date has come organically through Google and Instagram, so even modest ad spend or a hands-on operator building local presence represents clear growth.
Skills
No photography or technical background required. Clients supply their own crew and equipment and access the space unattended. Suits a photographer or videographer wanting a permanent base plus a second income stream, or a passive investor comfortable overseeing automated systems. Day to day involves light admin, occasional client contact and oversight of cleaning and maintenance contractors. Full SOPs, supplier contacts, systems documentation and handover training are included in the sale.
Hours
Approx. 8-10 hours per week. Bookings are automated and access is self-service, so no set trading hours are required.
Lease
Secure term to 30 Apr 2028 with 2yr option to 2030. Rent $33,300pa + outgoings + GST. Assignable with lessor consent.
Employees
No employees. Cleaning is handled by a contractor and maintenance by external trades, both available to continue under new ownership. The business is currently owner operated on a part time basis with no staff to manage or hand over.
Reason for Sale
An opportunity interstate has come up that I want to pursue properly. I've reached the point where I'm being pulled in several directions at once, and the business deserves an owner who can give it their full attention. It is trading well and runs on automated systems, so there is no operational reason behind the sale, it's simply time to hand it to someone with the focus to take it further. A full handover and transition support period are included.
About the Business
A fully established self-access photography and video studio in Perth's northern suburbs, trading since 2022 and running on automated systems that require minimal owner involvement.
THE MODEL
Clients book and pay online in full, then access the 222sqm studio themselves using a smart lock code issued for their session. No keys, no meet and greets, no staff on site. The owner is rarely at the premises. It works much like a short stay rental, but for creatives, seven days a week during daylight hours.
THE SPACE
222sqm open plan studio, the largest of its kind in the northern corridor. Strong natural light all day, white walls, polished floors, backdrop system, lighting, furniture and styling props included. Ground floor unit with off street parking and easy load in.
THE NUMBERS
Approximately 680 bookings over the last twelve months and consistent six figure annual turnover. Every booking to date has come organically through Google and Instagram — no advertising has ever been run. Full financials available to qualified buyers.
THE BRAND
An established name in the Perth creative market with a large engaged social following, a 4.8 star Google rating and a loyal base of repeat clients spanning brands, photographers, videographers, content creators and small businesses.
THE SYSTEMS
Automated online booking and payment, automated confirmation and reminder emails, smart lock access with remote override, CCTV security, and documented procedures covering cleaning, maintenance, consumables and access. Cleaning and maintenance are handled by external contractors available to continue under new ownership.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Website, domain and booking platform, brand and intellectual property, social accounts and content library, Google Business profile and reviews, all studio equipment, furniture and backdrops, smart lock and security systems, client database, complete operations manual and SOPs, contractor contacts, plus handover training and transition support.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Suits a photographer or videographer wanting a permanent base plus a second income stream, or an investor seeking an established business that doesn't demand daily attention. No technical or photography background required.
The lease runs to April 2028 with a further two year option, giving certainty into the medium term. Assignment available subject to lessor consent.
Genuine reason for sale. Confidential process, comprehensive financials and an information pack available to qualified buyers on enquiry.
History
Established in 2022 and trading continuously since, the studio has grown entirely through word of mouth, Google and Instagram with no advertising spend. What began as a simple space for hire has been progressively systemised into a largely hands off operation, with online booking and payment, automated communications and smart lock self access added over time. The premises have been continuously improved, including floor restoration and backdrop upgrades. The lease was extended in May 2026, to April 2028 with a two year option to 2030.
