I can really recommend this studio. Lots of sets and props so the opportunities are almost endless. Great equipment and Mike is very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. Nothing seems to be too much trouble. I've already booked my next shoot there and I can't wait.

Fab studio, It looks really small when you first walk in but then you turn the corner and BAM! a huge space with stacks of cool props including a motorbike! Mike was great always on hand to help and make a great coffee. Highly recommended, I will shoot here again.

Did my first shoot at Creativus Imago and really recommend this place, Mike was really welcoming, frendly and really helpful. the equipment is great and there is just so much room to work in. lots of sets to work with and if you need to move things around thats no problem at all, the studio was clean warm and everything worked flawlessly. I will definitely be going back here very soon. Great studio and a really nice chap running it.

Just had my first session at Creativus today and definitely recommend them. Studio space is large, several different sets (only managed to use three so plenty more to try), well equipped and very organised. Booking was sorted quickly, emails all answered promptly. Mike was very helpful with getting the lighting sorted and with some useful ideas. I will be back for sure !

Had a recent studio day at Creativus for the first time this month, its a great space with a wide range of sets and props. Mike the owner was on hand throughout the day helping out, making fabulous cups of tea and generally keeping us all very happy! I loved my time there and hope to be back soon!

Just had my first shoot at Creativus Imago. The studio is very impressive with lots of space, an excellent range of backdrops, props and lighting equipment. The studio was warm, clean and tidy and Mike is the perfect host - happy to let you get on - but there when you need some help and advice.

Highly recommended.

I am a novice with limited experience and this was my first solo shoot, with a hired model i cannot thank Mike enough for his lighting support and with so many variations in backdrops, props and lighting i cant wait to go back for my next session. The location is easy to get too there is plenty of parking and you are minutes away the station and all amenities. I would not hesitate to recommend it

Great studio!

Studio is fantastically equipped with different setups, coaches, chairs, bed.. and many backgrounds!

Mike /owner/ is really helpful with setting up studio lighting. And even prepare tea for me and model.

Superb studio and highly recommended. Absolute pleasure as place to work in.

Looking forward to work with you again!

Had a great studio day at Creativus Imago Studio :) Mike, the owner, is very lovely, a great host! He really looked after me all day long. :D He is great at promoting the studio days beforehand too. The Studio itself is brilliant, it is very big and has loads of sets/ areas, and props, you are definitely spoilt for choice! Mike's studio is a hidden gem....I definitely recommend it, as both a photographer and model :)

Thanks so much for having me and I hope to come back soon :D

I have known Mike for a good couple of years and had the pleasure of working with him too. I was super excited to be offered to hold a model day at his new studio 'Creativus Imago Photography'.

The studio is fantastic! It is all on one level and offers new and different sets to what other studios have at the moment. The lights are easy to use and unlike some you are able to move the lights, sets and props around as you see fit.

The studio was kept warm throughout and ALL the photographers on my model day was MEGA impressed by the studio and hospitality.

Mike is a lovely studio owner.

To Photographers - Mike goes above and beyond what is expected. No job is too small or too big for Mike. Need a new lighting set up, need something moving or just fancy another cuppa? Not a problem because Mike is on it!

To Models - Mike respects the model completely, constantly making sure I was fine throughout the shoot. A wonderful guy and one I hope to see more of when I move down South in the spring.

If your looking for a new and exciting studio then Mike's 'Imago Photography Studio' is for you!!

Thanks for having me and the little man :D!

Had my first shoot with Mike yesterday, have to say both studio and Mike are great to work with! Mike is friendly, and a great tea maker! He was also on hand to help with lights and sets.

All in all a great experience, and I can throughly recommend Mike and the Studio to anyone!

Paid my first visit to Mikes studio yesterday for his Amy Rose studio day, and it won't be the last time a I go there!

The studio is huge with loads of backdrops, props and lights to use. Mike is friendly and helpful and even makes decent coffee!! ;-)

I look forward to going there again.

I had two sold-out studio days at Creativus Imago Studio in the same week last month, one of which on a weekday. The studio is a great space, with lots of interesting props and detailed backdrops to make it worth shooting more than a couple of hours at a time, and a lovely warm, clean makeup room.

Mike is a brilliant host! He helped me with everything from parking my car to carrying suitcases, making herbal tea and even bringing the MUA and me chocolates! He helped out the photographers where help was wanted but gave us privacy to shoot at all other times.

Creativus is now pretty much my favourite studio and I hope I get booked there lots more :D

Had an awesome shoot with Theresa Louise at Mike Hardley's excellent Creativus Imago Photograph studio in Hitchin a few days ago.

Mike is such a great guy and he was more than willing to help out with stuff around the studio as Theresa and I did our shoot. The studio itself is very well equipped, not only from a lighting perspective but also it has a great range of props and backdrops which Theresa and I made great use of.

I genuinely loved the feel of the studio, great facilities all round!

couldn't recommend the studio highly enough!

will definitely be back!

cheers Mike!!

I've shot with Mike before and he is an amazing photographer but this time I shot at his studio with another photographer.

Mike was extremely helpful, always made sure we had a drink or if we needed anything. He was happy for us to rearrange the studio sets and help with lighting when required.

Nothing ever seems to be too much trouble for Mike, he's one of the most chilled out people I know with a great personality.

The studio is absolutely stunning, extremely clean and tidy and has everything you could wish for.

Would highly recommend the studio and mike as a photographer to anyone

We see you on 1st March for my studio day

Thanks

I modelled for mike Hardley (Creativus imago's studio owner) we had a two hour booking, he was very laid back with time, no rushing at all. He had the set up sorted before I arrived so we were ready to crack on.. Very good with input about styling, makeup, changes to the sets.

He made me lots of teas and even fed me jafacakes!

Chatty, confident, and experienced.

We shot some video footage which is being edited as we speak, I've not done too much video work so far so he was very helpful when telling me what to do & when he was hitting record etc.

Highly recommended

Brilliant studio

Great photographer

See you at the studio day or before :D

I've had 2 shoots at the Creativus Imago studio now and i think it's brilliant. Any time I'm asked to recommend a studio in future it will be this 1.

Also Mike is a lovely guy.

I used Mike's new studio for the first time a week or so ago and can only say I was 100% impressed with the place. It is spacious, clean and warm and the array of backdrops and lighting equipment are conducive to achieving a variety of shots and effects. It is stocked with props, various accessories, fabrics, clothing etc available for use if wished. The model's changing area is comfortable, well-lit and separate to the main studio area. It's a mighty fine space and I can recommend it whole-heartedly. Mike is on hand for help with anything and supplies copious amounts of tea/coffee. I will definitely make use of this studio again and accessibility is good.

First shoot at Creativus Imago studio, & definitely will be going back soon!

Great sets, awesome props (check out the steampunk bike!) - all above and beyond what you would find elsewhere. What other studio would give you the Eifel Tower to work with! :-)

If you are looking for something just that bit different then I thoroughly recommend this studio,you won't be disappointed! - and Mike makes a great cup of coffee! :-)

Thanks, Mike, see you soon!
