Photography Venue in Plant City, FL
Photography-Friendly Venue & Studio Rental
The Gathering Table is a photography venue in Plant City, FL, designed for photographers seeking a versatile, light-filled space for styled shoots, portraits, branding sessions, and creative projects. Located near Tampa and serving photographers across the Tampa Bay area, our greenhouse and outdoor settings provide a thoughtfully curated backdrop for every season.
At The Gathering Table, photographers gain access to more than just a beautiful location — they enter a thoughtfully curated experience designed to elevate their work. From romantic greenhouse scenes and natural outdoor backdrops to styled sets that change with the seasons, every space is created with intention, flexibility, and creative flow in mind. We understand the needs of photographers because we’ve built this venue with your workflow and your clients’ experience at the center. When you book with us, you’re not just reserving a space — you’re giving your clients a one-of-a-kind setting that feels effortless, magical, and meaningful, helping you stand out in your market and deliver galleries that tell a story. ✨📸.
In addition to our seasonal offerings, we love collaborating with photographers to create custom settings and styled shoots that bring your unique vision to life. Whether you’re dreaming of a fully styled scene or prefer a simple, natural backdrop, we offer flexible options to fit your creative needs. Photographers are welcome to bring their own props or reserve access to select areas of the property at a discounted rate for minimalist sessions. Our goal is to give you the freedom to create, experiment, and deliver something truly special to your clients.
🐾 Pets are welcome!
🌧️ Rainy day? No problem! You’ll be able to reschedule. Last minute client cancellations? We will be glad to reschedule with you for that too! Unfortunately, we are not able to offer refunds. However, we will be glad to reschedule using your payment amount as credit towards another time or even a different setting in the next season.

Photography with Animals
Did you know that our friends from Crosswinds Barnyard in Dade City visit The Gathering Table frequently? In addition to interactive visits, our farm animals are also available for styled photography sessions and creative shoots. Photographers and families can book select animals to be included in spring, seasonal, and year-round sessions at The Gathering Table.
Ducks and bunnies are a favorite in the spring but can be booked at any time!
We know that clients love to have photo shoots with horses and cows year-round!
Even our goats and donkey make fantastic additions to creative photo shoots!
We often offer specific seasonal photo settings. However, we welcome your custom ideas and client needs!
Whether you’re planning a family session, Easter minis, milestone portraits, or a creative styled shoot, our animals add a charming, storybook element to your photos.
Could you use an extra set of hands during your photography shoot?
Now Available: Photographer’s Assistant Add-On
We’re excited to offer photographers the option to add a dedicated on-site assistant to their shoot time. Our daughter, Maya, an aspiring photographer herself with a great eye and her own camera, would love to assist you during your session. She’s wonderful with children and animals, helping keep even the most energetic or nervous clients calm, focused, and happy. Maya pays close attention to the details that matter—straightening collars, adjusting necklaces, smoothing outfits—and can help guide clients to the correct locations around the property. She’s also happy to hold reflectors, light shades, or other equipment as needed. With her warm personality and eagerness to learn alongside you, Maya is there to support your creative flow so you can focus on capturing beautiful images.
Photography Terms and Conditions
REFUNDS
Although we do not offer refunds for weather or client cancellations, we gladly allow photographers to reschedule their sessions (any reason) up to 2 hours before their booked time. You may reschedule for a different setting. If you are not sure how you want to reschedule, we will give you what you paid in credit towards a future appointment (we can schedule that for you).
TIME ACCOMODATIONS
Currently, all of our bookings on our booking page are for one hour. However, we would love to accommodate the different needs of photographers. Message us and we can work on setting up photo shoots for you for different amounts of time.
30 MIN SESSIONS - We understand that sometimes you might have 1-2 clients that really want a particular setting, but you just cannot find others to join in for the hour. For some settings (not including those with farm animals or those that require extra set up time), we can work out a 30 minute session. Please message us and we can work out those arrangements.
EXTRA TIME - In order to minimize your costs, we do not currently offer buffer time between photography sessions. For some photographers who want extra time to check lighting and set up props in a different way, it may be difficult to still squeeze in 4 clients in an hour. If you would like a little extra breathing room for a little additional cost, we can work this out for you as well.
