Baseline Studios Launches New Creative Hub for Content Creators

Josiah Kowles started a tech startup back in January. He was gearing up to roll out a social media push. But finding a spot to make regular content felt tricky. Weekly rentals were too pricey. So he decided to buy The Studio Hampton Roads in June. That property spanned both Suffolk and Virginia Beach areas.

The old name didn't cut it anymore. Kowles explained that the earlier identity was too limited, centered solely on photo work. It failed to show his true direction. He went ahead and bought the building because it already had a big local presence and knew customers well. The former Virginia Beach address stood at 2513 N. Landing Road beside Kellam High School. It was compact and struggled with heating problems. So he found another building nearby at 2310 Princess Anne Road and shut down the old spot.

The new 2,000-square-foot space became a full-blown content factory. Upstairs hosts photography work with a smooth white wall, a special book display, changing seasonal backdrops, and bright natural light. Below ground holds the podcast corner with microphones and mixers. There's also a conference table for workshops and a cozy lounge perfect for relaxed interviews. The second location sits at 2310 Princess Anne Road and spans roughly 1,800 square feet, giving it an industrial look ideal for lifestyle and intimate portrait sessions. Both places offer flexible hourly rates starting at $80. Subscriptions kick in at $250 monthly and bundle six hours of usage across the entire portfolio.
