Had my first shoot at iSpy studio. The studio is fully equipped and has a lot of wonderful props and furniture. Stephan was a great host, very helpful and always there when needed. Will definitely be visiting again and recommend to all.

Had a quick impromptu band shoot on monday afternoon just gone, managed to get a booking same day. The studio has some great bits and bobs including some great continuous lighting and a very powerful octobox and head combo. Definitely recommended place, go see "Narnia" if you get the chance there!

I agree with everything CalmNudes said! A warm welcome from Stephan. A great selection of furniture and props, and the bonus of the warehouse space for the warm-blooded :-) I made great use of the natural light in the studio - this is definitely an asset. Definitely recommended - just wish it was closer to me!

I shot at iSpy this weekend : it's a little bit further afield than I would normally go, but it was convenient for the model I was working with. I liked the place. There's ample space, it's painted white and has enough natural light that at a pinch you could probably use it without lights. Everything worked well, and the furniture and props choices where better than I've had in other places I've worked in recently. Stephen was friendly, there when needed and out of the way when not needed. The shoot went extremely well, and despite the extra travel I expect to go back there.

I've done several shoots at iSpy and on every occasion I've been more then pleased with the facilities at the studio and also find Stephen very knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend this studio.

I took part in a group shoot last Friday at I spy studio and was very impresses by the space and the variety of backgrounds and props, Stephen was very well organised and took the time to make sure everyone had what they needed and to have a chat with people.. I would highly recommend Ispy studio...

Yet another shoot at iSpy and yet another great experience. This time the studio was accommodating a rather sizeable group shoot, with photographers and models from the WASP family venturing across from Wiltshire and Swindon. As ever, the studio was more than equipped with enough lights and locations and props and furnishings to keep everyone happy, but its greatest asset -- Stephen, the studio owner-come-host -- did a fantastic job making everyone at ease, introducing them to new equipment, helping with lighting set-ups and giving advice whenever asked.

Whether you're a pro photographer looking for a versatile space to be your playground or an absolute novice who appreciates assistance with lights and camera settings, I simply cannot recommend the services of iSpy and Stephen highly enough. And for what it's worth, it's the first place I've ever made the effort to stick a couple of business cards on the notice board -- a ringing endorsement if ever there was one!

I took part in a group shoot at the studio nearly a week ago. Brilliant studio, I really can not recommend it enough. The studio is well equipped, with plenty of lights, backdrops and props. The studio is also very spacious, which was just aswell with the huge group of models and photographers that were at the studio day. Stephen was a great host who was on hand all day to help whenever was needed. He is a very friendly guy who was happy to help all day which was brilliant. I will definitely be using the studio again in the not too distant future

Had my first visit to iSpy last week, what a brilliant studio. Spacious, lots of variety of backdrops, props and plenty of space to get changed and do hair and makeup. I would thoughly recommend any model or photographer to use iSpy as not only is the studio perfect the owner is a gem too. Stephen is friendly and extremely helpful

I had my first ever studio group shoot recently and was very excited to be using the services of iSpy Studios. The images in their portfolio of the different settings and props was spot on to what was available. Stephen is a lovely, jovial gentleman, equipped with gags and knowledge!

The studio is a nice size with several different settings and themes. There is also a massive warehouse with big windows and natural lights, metalwork and rugged white walls.

I hope to come back to iSpy soon, it lends itself really well to a variety of modelling and shooting and would highly recommend you try them.

great studio with a helpful manager. two great options for shots with warehouse and studio also loads of choices in the studio for props and seating will defiantly use again.

:D What a cool place! Had my first shoot at ISpy the other day during a group shoot. So many possibilities, tons of props, a very helpful and easy to approach manager. Changing area was big with more then enough space for any model to get camera ready.

I had a great day iSpy studio while on a group shoot with WASP. It was also co-hosted by the studio owner Stephen and he was a great host, making sure that everybody's needs were catered for.

The facilities are great, two studio sets, a warehouse and a graffiti tunnel nearby. The possibilities are endless.

I hope to go back there soon!

When I approached Stephen about i Spy studio hosting a group shoot day, i think we both thought we would have around a dozen people, but as the guest list grew the studio adapted it's set up. On the day the studio provided 4 shooting sets, two in the main studio & two in the warehouse, on the day we had 30 people, 20 photographers & 10 models

The studio was well organised and we were warmly welcomed - in fact the day was a huge success with everyone getting great photos & Stephen on hand to give guidance to the less experienced members

I HIGHLY. Recommend I Spy Studio for almost any type of shoot you have in mind

I’ve just had my first visit to iSpy as part of a group shoot, and can highly recommend it. The facilities were excellent, and the welcome warm, what more could you want.

I attended a group shoot at ispy studios on Friday. We were met by Stephen who I must say is a wonderful larger than life character. Instantly friendly and most welcoming. The studios and facilities were second to none. I particularly loved the warehouse space. I took 4 first time models along with me and Stephen took them under his wing and showed them the ropes whilst i was busy. They loved him and the whole experience!

I can't wait to go back and shoot there again and of course catch up with the fabulous Stephen.

Had a shoot at Ispy studio as part of the WASP group shoot. The studio was very well equipped with a great choice of different areas to shoot in and a wide range of props. There are plenty of lights available both flash and continuous lighting. as well as this the adjacent warehouse area has plenty of natural light and there is a graffiti wall just outside. Stephen is very friendly and willing to offer a hand to anyone who needs it. Good value too.

This was my first visit to ispy - I have to say, what a warm welcome we got!

The studio was perfect for what I needed and the fact that they have the additional space with natural light was an absolute bonus, which meant we were able to shoot a greater range of images than I had originally planned.

Thank you Stephen, you will be seeing a lot of me and we are booking the studio for the WASP Group shoot in January.

Helpful, Versatile, Highly Recommended

I had a shoot at ISpy last week and was thoroughly impressed with the studio.

Spacious, warm and has plenty of sets and equipment to use.

I'm very glad to have it as my local studio :)

Worked in iSpy studio on my tour in Gloucestershire and all I can say is it's an absolute bargain!

Every aspect of the studio is brilliant- lots of backdrops to choose from, great set of lights to use of natural lighting!

Stephen was very friendly and helpful when help was needed. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone! :-D
