What can I say about Crossroads,

Awesome studio and a great host in Richard who works so hard behind the seen, to bring top class models to the studio.

It’s like home from home for me been shooting here for 5 years now and regard Richard as a good friend now.

Richard is alway on hand to change backdrops and help with lighting.

He also has great banter, makes a fine cup of tea, (Brew)

And has cold drinks as well.

Thank you for having a great studio and always making me so welcome.

Kind regards….. From other side of hill.

John.

My second shoot in 2 weeks at Crossroads Studio this one for Faye Noir's Vintage Fashion Shoot. The shoot was very enjoyable and I would like to thank Richard for all his help in setting up the lighting and changing the backgrounds to give different look for the different dresses. A Great day with Faye again.

My first shoot in 17 months thanks to lock down etc. Also a first time shoot with Xeniamodel at her studio day. Thank you Richard with all your help with setting up backgrounds and lighting. I had a fantastic 2 hour shoot and the time flew by.

Just had my first studio day at Xroads!

Travel to the studio by train is very unreliable and Richard was very kind to pick me up halfway near Leeds. Richard also did the poster and arranged what's needed with all the photographers.

Very happy with how today went.

Hope Richard will recover soon from having me in his studio 😃 sorry about it.

Thank you

Richard first approached me with a Studio Day offer 2 years ago - and the Covid came.

And I was excited when Richard approached me again with the same offer this summer - as I was eager to visit his studio a long long time ago.

Communication - spot on. He really sold out my studio day - Richard at all times kept his word, worked hard for promotions, and this studio day would never have been possible without Richards' great planning skills and his professional experience.

On the day - he kindly offered a lift from station, the studio itself - beautiful! Lots of props to work with, backdrops in all rainbow colours available, coffee served excellently.

If I felt, I have forgotten smth for my look -Richard and his studio is your back up as well.

During each slot he made sure I was comfortable at all times and made sure, the day flows as smooth as possible. In between the time slots, Richard is also an amazing person to talk to.

Feeling blessed I had this opportunity, and very eager to get back there.

5 stars out of 5!!!

Thank you so much for all the effort to make this day happen.

If previous was not clear enough - very highly recommended studio and host to work with.

Yet again Richard hosted a great studio day with Blackswann. He is so welcoming and always on hand with help and guidance during the shoot as well as providing copious amounts of tea throughout. If you haven't used the studio for a shoot or attended one of his studio days you are definitely missing out. Highly recommended.

Got to say crossroads is a cracking little studio well I say "little" it's actually a decent size set over two shooting areas one with awesome natural window light. Both are well equipped with very good studio lights and ample modifiers.

Lots of tea and coffee and biscuits on offer and Richard is always on hand to help then he leaves you alone with the model to shoot your own style which to me is great knowing he's only a shout away.

Great studio easily recommend Crossroads to any photographer see you again soon buddy.

As always Richard was really helpful and easy to deal with (see previous references too) - the studio is a great space for someone looking to work with a photographer - thanks again and see you next time!

Had a shoot here today with RickieEmm. It was a great shoot in a lovely studio. Very comfortable with a good size private changing room and we'll cleaned toilets. They have a good range of lights and backdrops. Even the parking is no problem. Can really recommend this studio👍👍👍

I feel like a regular now at Crossroads, it's one of my favourite studios to work in and Richard is always so accommodating!

The facilities are great, with different options for backgrounds/sets, a great room for the makeup application with seating, large mirrors, sink and refreshments etc.

Highly recommended Crossroads for anyone looking for a studio to hire and I'm sure I'll be back before I know it!

It’s my home from home for a reason! Crossroads is a fabulous space to work from, always super clean and tidy,even has its own wardrobe full of fab clothes AND Richard is the friendliest and most helpful studio owner out there easily. Nothing is ever too much trouble and he’s always there with the brews and nibbles! I’m happy to be back working at my resident studio once again after such a longtime away due to covid. I’ll always be back here!

Highly recommended by me ALWAYS xxxx

This was an excellent shoot at Crossroads Studio. The facilities were first class with a choice of studios to use. It was a bright summer's day, and we managed to work in natural light throughout the shoot which was exactly what i was hoping for.

Richard was on hand to help where needed, but remained in the background unless he was needed to help with some equipment, or to make a drink. Exactly what any photographer and model would want. Recommended, and thanks.

I am a regular visitor to Crossroads Studio whether it be for a models studio day or my own shoot. I have never been disappointed with a visit, free parking, Richard is very helpful with lighting and backdrops and advice in general, endless cups of tea/coffee, and some cracking music. I would highly recommend using the studio if you are looking for somewhere to hire.

Had the closing session at a Gina Ogden studio day at Crossroads. Great studio, plenty of colour back drop options and lighting set ups available, as well as a room with natural light options as well, which suited the end of day light. Parking also available at the rear of the property.

Richard was super helpful with the tour of studio beforehand, lighting assists and backdrop changes. Refreshments available as advertised (though shops are available nearby for further food and drink options if needed).

Would recommend and visit again.

A really well organised shoot with Richard on hand to do lighting and offer support. This was my first studio shoot and was made to feel really welcome. Thanks also to to the truly amazing @mel_Slater who made an amateur feel like a professional. THANKS👍 I’ll be back soon.

I hosted a sell out model day at Crossroads studio and it was fantastic! It’s full equipped, and super clean! There’s so many different back drops, props, there’s 2 main shooting rooms, 1 has lots of beautiful natural light which I loved. Richard was so helpful on the day too! I couldn’t recommend this studio enough!! And I’m in the process of organising my second model day here!

I can’t count how many times I’ve shot here now but it’s one I always feel the most safest in. I’ve known Richard for a long time from when I was first starting out modelling, he is very professional, trustworthy and reliable. He’s always on hand to help with set, lighting and also makes lovely cups of teas!

I am hosting my first themed event here and I couldn’t have picked a better studio as it has everything you need! Plus he has an abundance of outfits and props which always comes in handy if you happen to have forgotten something.

If you’re looking for a studio that is in a great location, has natural light, and a wonderful studio owner look no further than crossroads.

I booked crossroads studio for a shoot I had organised with Fay Noir at short notice as our plans changed due to the weather

Richard is wonderful hoist and Made us both very welcome even Offering us drinks as we walked through the door.

This is a well equipped studio and Richard was in hand to help with sets / backdrops and lighting.and then disappearing to leave us alone.

This was my second time at crossroads and it certainly will not be the last

Very highly recommended by me.

Great little studio, highly recommend shooting there.
