STUDIO 1

Studio 1 – Flexible Space for Your Creative Needs

Studio 1 is your go-to space for portraits, headshots, and intimate creative shoots. Designed with flexibility in mind, this studio gives you multiple looks in one compact, efficient setup. 

Make use of our paper roll backdrop system or take advantage of the wall-mounted fabric backdrops arranged across three walls, offering four different colour options within a single space. Whether you’re after classic, textured, or bold looks, you can change it up quickly and keep your shoot flowing. 

Love working with natural light? Studio 1 is bathed in it, but if you prefer a more controlled setup, just pull the blackout curtains and light it your way. 

Professional yet relaxed, this is an ideal space for headshots, branding sessions, and smaller-scale shoots where detail and atmosphere matter. Simple, stylish, and full of possibilities, Studio 1 makes every portrait session a standout.

STUDIO 2

Studio 2 – Where Space Meets Possibility

 

Step into Studio 2, our large, versatile creative space designed to bring your boldest ideas to life. With two designated areas for paper roll backdrops, a striking white corner, and open-plan layout, this studio is perfect for capturing movement, fashion, dynamic portraits, and large group shots. 

The high ceiling features exposed steel beams, giving you the freedom to hang aerial hoops, ropes, or other creative rigging, ideal for performers, dancers, or anyone wanting to add drama and depth to their shoot. Whether you’re going big on set design or keeping it minimal and clean, Studio 2 gives you the room to create without limits. 

Use our V-flats and flags to shape light exactly how you want it, from sculpted, moody shadows to crisp, bright looks. It’s a space that invites experimentation, while also delivering everything you need for polished, professional results. 

Bright, bold, and brilliantly adaptable, Studio 2 is the place you want to shoot in.

Backdrop Options

Variety of Colours:
In addition to the white background, we offer a range of coloured paper roll backdrops to suit your creative vision.


Floor Usage:
If you need the backdrop to extend onto the floor, a small charge will apply to cover potential wear and tear—because we understand that things happen during a shoot.

 

HEADSHOT & 3/4 PORTRAIT BACKDROPS

You can change these backdrops or pick a few to hang up simultaneously in the studio. These can work alongside our paper roll backdrops in the same space. Pick your colours then have your client or model move around the room and take your shots.

In studio one you can pick your paper backdrop plus 3 others from below to give you 4 different colours to work with.

Then change them all and start creating again.
