Our studio is available for hire for
still or video photography
We
have a large, very well equipped studio, and it's available for any
type of still or video photography
The studio
is available to both amateur and professional photographers, 7 days
a week, subject to our work diary.
The
studio measures over 2,200 square feet and has a roomset, a range of
different backgrounds, a large range of professional flash equipment
including Elinchrom generator and monoblocks, Strobex generator etc.,
various snoots, honeycombs, brollies, softboxes etc and focussing spotlights.
The studio can also be used for video, using our HMI lighting sytem
(HMI is a professional continuous lighting system that produces daylight
balanced, high quality light. Unlike normal continuous lighting, it
is cool-running)
.
The use of all lighting
& and other studio equipment is included.
As you can see from the photos,
the studio is ideal for all types of photography, including lifestyle,
and emulates a normal room. Using simple props (including a portable 'window'
that can be positioned as required,) the roomset can become virtually
anything you want it to be!.
Equipment includes a networked computer that allows
images from professional digital cameras to be viewed directly on screen.
