Customer Testimonials ... 

Excellent space with loads of kit. Mark is really accommodating and was great to work with

Karanjit Panesar

I hired the studio for a shoot with a great model called Matty and unfortunately, the photographer was called away at the last minute. I took the shots with Mark’s fantastic guidance who stayed to help me with the lighting and the use of his photographic equipment too as mine was glitching. I highly recommend the hire of the studio which is so well equipped at an extremely competitive price.  Mark’s help was invaluable and it’s a no brainer for me to book the studio again in the future too. I cannot recommend the hire of the studio enough, nor the help which Mark provided. If you are looking for a studio in Leeds, please, do not look any further! Thanks Mark & Matty for a great day

Was an amazing shoot, the team at the studio are very helpful offering drinks and BTS video also offering to help on set and help set up! Possibly one of the best studios I’ve shot in Yorkshire !

What a great experience. From booking all the way through to the final product. It was relaxed, fun and really enjoyable experience. Mark was absolutely fantastic. As well as creating a great environment he was invested in each shot, giving direction and styling tips. The studio is centrally located with 2 mins away from the station another 2 mins away from the beautiful river Aire where we took more commercial shoots. Thanks Mark for such a great experience would recommend to absolutely anyone.
