Fareham Studio is amazing! I was a little star struck anyway because of my first time in a studio. Rin showed me around, had the grand tour and so many thoughts and ideas are still buzzing around my head.

I had full use of the main room, the lighting kit was on point and felt immediately at ease and very welcomed.

I'm really behind supporting local businesses, it's important and will be doing all I can to spread the word and keep returning for more time.

Paid my latest visit to Fareham Studio last Friday for a shoot with Senopa Rin. I was gutted to hear of the passing of Andy and at one point thought the future of the studio looked bleak. However, like many others was delighted to hear that Sinopa Rin had taken over. I love to work with the available light and sets upstairs and working with Rin was a joy as she was able to advise me on getting the best shots. So, models and photographers please give Rin all the support you can. Good luck, Rin, and thanks

As a complete newcomer to portraiture and studio shooting, I decided to book an introductory studio session with Rin; I thought she would be ideally placed to help me given her experience as a photographer and model. It proved to be a very good decision; Rin is a brilliant teacher, explains everything in a clear and straightforward manner and led the session with a perfect mix of explanation and ample practical shooting experience with the lovely and wonderful Kate as the model. So glad to have found this wonderful studio and will most definitely be making many more return visits. Highly recommended.

The studio is very well equipped. There is a big dark room downstairs with a wide range of backdrops and props. It has all the lighting equipment you can want. Upstairs has a range of different areas, including an oriental sitting area and a bedroom.

The studio is run by Sinpoa Rin. She could not have been more helpful, with invaluable advice about lighting, accommodating every request instantly and as much tea, coffee and biscuits as I wanted. She is very friendly, an experienced photographer and an experienced model, so any model you bring is sure to feel right at home.

Great studio with numerous areas to shoot including Boudoir, natural light sets and the main studio with lotos of flash equipment and backdrops.

We had Rin assisting with lighting and she helps create some great affects.

Thanks Rin.

Highly recommended studio.

My first visit since the re-config of the space - it's an even better Studio now & is being expertly run by Rin as Andy is unwell ATM. Absolutely recommended!

I recently had the pleasure of attending an organised group event the studio, curated with a Valentine's Day theme and led by the talented Jade Lyon. The event, expertly orchestrated by the brilliant Sinopa Rin, exceeded all expectations.

The array of meticulously crafted sets, each intricately designed to embody the essence of Valentine's Day, truly set the stage for creativity to flourish.

With Sinopa Rin at the helm, we were seamlessly guided through each set, ensuring we made the most of our time and captured the perfect shots. The studio's lighting setup, thoughtfully arranged for our convenience, made the process effortless and enjoyable.

A standout highlight of the event was undoubtedly the presence of Jade Lyon, whose professionalism and expertise as a model elevated the entire experience. Her grace and versatility in front of the camera made capturing stunning images a breeze.

I wholeheartedly recommend attending the group events hosted by this studio. Not only is the studio itself equipped with top-of-the-line amenities, but the collaborative atmosphere fostered by Sinopa Rin and her team ensures a memorable and fulfilling experience for all participants.

As someone with a personal studio setup at home, I can attest that this studio holds its own against the best. If circumstances were different, I would undoubtedly make this studio my go-to choice for all my photography needs.

VERY HIGHLY RECOMMEND...

I met Rin for the first time woohoo (who I have to say looks stunning even without make up)...

Looked after me really well with plenty of tea and lovely and warm...

I love it at this studio...

I shot here with 2 photographers for 4 hours each...

The studio owners are absolutely amazing (Rin and Andy) and not just that the studio itself has loads of sets including a shower, so you could shoot here all day and still have stuff to do...

Thank you sooooooooooooooo much for a spot on perfect day...

I was fortunate enough to be hosted by the lovely Sinopa Rin for my charity studio day yesterday.

The studio is fantastically well equipped and warm, despite it being the middle of winter. There were plenty of sets to choose from, although we spent the bulk of the day downstairs with the painted dark green wall that i'm a little bit in love with!

I had a very successful studio day here, and Rin was on call throughout the day to help with anything myself or the photographers needed, as well as keeping us topped up with tea and coffee throughout.

Very much recommended studio, even with the upcoming weekday price increase it's an absolute steal of a deal for the variety and assistance that's on offer. I think I might become a regular here!

Another shoot at Fareham. I usually meet Rin but this time Andy was in attendance.

Andy and Rin are always really helpful, especially with lighting rig.

There's a good choice of room sets on the daylight floor, and an excellent collection of lighting gear.

Highly recommended.

I had an amazing time at the Fareham studio! It was a fabulous experience. The precommunication was excellent. Andy and the other photographers kept me updated throughout. They were happy to accommodate my plans and to pick me up from the train station.

On the day of the shoot, Andy met me near the studio and kindly helped with my heavy bag, which was very considerate. He was remarkably kind, friendly, and helpful. Andy offered me drinks and gave me a tour of his fantastic studio.

The studio features a fabulous changing room with an extensive selection of outfits, props, jewelry, and everything a model might need. There's a large mirror with excellent lighting and various hygiene items. The studio itself is great, offering various techniques, including lighting and gels at your disposal. There are different backgrounds and sets with excellent furniture and decorations, ensuring diverse and creative shots.

Andy is always ready to assist with anything you may need. He's great with lighting, ensuring perfect shots! He's not only helpful but also an interesting and friendly person, making for great conversations.

The atmosphere during the shoot is incredibly friendly and warm. The photographers relax in a separate room, chatting and enjoying tea. During the shoot, Andy surprised us with an incredible homemade curry! It was delicious and added to the already great and friendly atmosphere. We all had dinner together, chatting and laughing. It was a fantastic experience.

Thank you so much for having me in your studio! It was an incredible day, and I was thrilled to meet you and work in your fantastic studio. I eagerly look forward to the opportunity to work with you again! Thank you!

My first shoot at Fareham studio! Can't believe i haven't been there before! great shooting space, even has an upstairs! Andy was on hand to assist with lighting. It has a model changing room with a big mirror and heating. Also lots of clothes to borrow! i would love to go back and use more of the space. Also excellent value for money.

I had another fantastic shoot at Fareham recently, this time with the exquisite Sophia Gray. We had 4 hours and it all went superbly.

The studio was clean and ready to go with the ideas we came up with. Andy again was an amazing help, adjusting the lighting and backdrops as desired. Andy is superb in being there to help when we need it but not intruding or imposing on the shoot giving us privacy too. There are plenty of lighting and backdrop combinations to choose from and some lovely natural light space upstairs.

I have had two great shoots at Fareham and some terrific images from both, I can easily recommend the studio to models and photographers of all levels. I look forward to returning to the studio soon.

Thank you Andy :-)

Fareham studio is the most fabulous place to work from, I absolutely love doing studio days here. Andy is the most fabulous and knowledgeable studio host and there is nothing that he can’t do with lighting. He is so so talented, everything about the day works so well, I love coming to the studio I find it is fully equipped with exactly what you need along with a lot of costumes which are brilliant as well. There is this lovely atmosphere and vibe here that I can’t quite put my finger on why it works so well - it’s just excellent through and through. I can’t recommend this place enough the time literally flies bye on studio days here, I think it’s because it’s so easy to get on with Andy he is such an easy going lovely guy. Models if you havnt before book in a studio day - you won’t be disappointed and you will have the best time xx

I've wanted to shoot here for a while now but have always been put off by the commute from brighton. Suffice to say that it's well worth it.

The studio setup is great with a traditional studio downstairs and a bedroom suite upstairs that has great natural light. Andy was really helpful with timely suggestions but otherwise unobtrusive which is really nice. Hope to be back soon

Retro Rob

This is my second home!

Love working with this amazing guy Andy and all that comes with Fareham Studios.

I decided as the year is ending fast I needed to get Retro Rob out on the road again and what better place to go than Fareham Studios.

Armed with a few ideas in my head and ideas of how I would like it to look off I went.

If any of you have worked at Fareham before you know there speciality when it comes to lighting and wow did they deliver again!

I was blown away with the back of camera shots from the group shoot I attended even in there un edited state all looked ready to load.

To also spend time with my amazing friend Andy was priceless too.

I love creating these Iconic images and look forward to creating many more in the New Year.

I will have to find you a more challenging set as you make it look too easy!

Big love to you

Rob

Had the best day at Fareham Studio recently, was so fab to be back and can't believe it's been so long since I was last year... before they moved everything around and so it was so great to see the changes they have made and it all looks amazing!!!

There are so many different and fab areas to use, plenty of natural light upstairs as well which is always a great bonus in a studio I find! The changing room is great too, with lots of mirrors - perfect for us models I must say and Andy was a great host as always, offering plenty of cups of tea and they even have a large array of herbal teas so big bonus there! :D

Thanks for having me back, and I'm sure I'll soon become a regular in not time as I've got a new found love for this studio already.

Highly recommend, and if you haven't shot there yet then you certainly need to!!!
