The Collective
A private, light-filled creative suite in the heart of Tampa, available to book by the room or as a full-space experience for your next workshop, pop-up, networking event, or content day.
Swapna Fabbiano Collective
Tucked inside The Promenade on North Dale Mabry Highway, The Collective is a boutique studio and creative suite. It's 1,564 square feet of intentional, light-filled space in Carrollwood, home to a small community of women in business who gather, celebrate, and grow together.
Whether you're hosting a small networking event, a workshop, or a private celebration, The Collective offers a setting that feels elevated from the moment your guests walk in.
More than a portrait studio.
Good to know
My client closet is reserved exclusively for portrait clients and isn't included in any booking. My portrait studio is available as part of the full-space experience, giving your event full run of the suite.
Room one
The Parlor
Workshops, networking & pop-ups
A private room (with keypad lock) that flows right off the Lounge, delivered empty so it's ready to become whatever you're hosting. One week it's a posing workshop, the next a small-business networking mixer, the next a beauty pop-up or a content creator's shoot day. Bring your own setup and vision!
Footprint
300 sq ft, unfurnished
Booking
By the hour with a 2-hour minimum
"A different room every time you walk in, because it's built to be."
Room two
The Atelier
Available for partnership / sublease
A private room with keypad lock for 24/7 access, delivered as an open shell, no furnishings, no fixed buildout, just clean white walls and light. I'm holding it for one long-term partner: a woman-owned, luxury-facing business whose clients would overlap with mine. If you're looking for a space that already feels elevated, interested in community building and supporting other woman entrepreneurs, this is the perfect place to grow your business!
Footprint
400 sq ft, unfurnished shell
Term
6 to 12 month partnership agreement
"One partner, one room, built for a business that already feels like family."
Full-space experience
Book The Collective
The Parlor, the Atelier, the Lounge, the Bathroom, and my portrait studio, all open for up to 30 guests: a boutique-scaled footprint for workshops, mixers, and pop-ups that want a private, elevated setting without a warehouse-sized venue. Delivered empty, the layout resets to whatever you're hosting. My client closet is the one space that stays reserved for portrait clients, even with the full-space experience.

Partnerships & collaborations
Lets build something together
I'm always looking for ways to support women entrepreneurs here in Tampa, and hosting workshops, pop-ups, and events at The Collective is one of my favorite ways to do it.
I'm intentional about who I partner with. I'm looking for businesses that are client-experience-forward, the kind of brand that treats a client relationship the way I treat mine, with an aesthetic and standard of care that feels aligned with the Collective's. If that sounds like you, I'd love to hear what you have in mind.
