DANVILLE, Va. â A local businesswoman is planning to add studio owner to her portfolio soon, which will be aided by a grant from the River District Association.Â
Kelly Cunningham, owner of The Fashion Haus and Danville Fashion Week founder, knew she wanted to open a fully equipped, rentable photography studio, something that she has always needed when the annual Danville Fashion Week fashion show rolls around.Â
âEvery time I needed a photography studio for my [modeling] clients, I had to create one in a space, because I didnât have anywhere to go,â Cunningham said. âIâd have to rent buildings or dance spaces and do a pop-up studio. Thatâs very costly and time consuming.â
