A brilliant studio and lovely owner. I had a great shoot here again. The studio is equipped with everything you need and Ian is always on hand to help if needed, if not he stays in his office for a private shoot if that’s what is wanted, very hospitable and kind. I look forward to returning next year.

Thanks Ian.😊

Another fantastic shoot with Rob Black at Ian’s amazing studio! It’s the perfect size that’s very well equipped for all your photography needs. Clean, warm and with private changing facilities. Offered a hot beverage on arrival and the owner Ian is just lovely. Extremely helpful and wow how talented! Setting up the perfect lighting was made to look like a breeze.

A pleasure to be back to such a brilliant studio.

Highly recommended by me to any model or photographer. I hope to be back in the future.

I had my first shoot at this fantastic studio with a lovely photographer Rob Black.

Ian the studio owner was a truly lovely gentleman who was on hand with his amazing knowledge of lighting as and when needed, which he had a fantastic set up ready and waiting anyway.

It hopefully won’t be the last time I visit Ian’s brilliant studio.

I highly recommend Ian and his studio to any model and photographer. 😊

I was booked to model for a water splash event today at Ian's Studio. I had so muhh fun! Really enjoyed every single set - "cooling down after a run" wearing a sportswear, having drinks thrown at me in a "night out outfit", art nude splash and water wig. Precomms with owner was second to none. Ian went above and beyond to make me feel warm and comfortable, making sure water was warm and didn't add any ice cubes lol :D

I love this studio cause it runs so many fun and interesting events like this one.

See you again soon!

Joined a 'Splash' group shoot with Tatiana. First time at the studio and I found it nice and intimate but with high enough ceilings to ensure there was plenty of room to shoot. The evening was relaxed and fun. Ian worked hard to ensure everybody got time to try various shots which he'd planned out before hand with plenty of tips and advice along the way. On this occasion he even touched on some post production for those that wanted it. I'm sure I'll be returning.

Attended a water and slime shoot at Ians Studio in Stockport. Ian was excellent in pre event comms and on the day when he shared his extensive knowledge. The studio is well equipped - this includes kettle!

Hope to visit again.

It has been about six years since I last attended a workshop evening at Ian's Studio and tonight I went along again.

In my opinion Ian is one of the best tutors of photography that I know. My aim in going to his workshops is to see techniques which I can hopefully use on other occasions. Ian's explanations are clear and done in a relaxed manner and I like his style of putting over concepts.

Thank you Ian for a very enjoyable and relaxed evening.

Another wonderful evening and workshop run by Ian at his studio. This time featuring me.

What a delightful event it was.

Ian really puts a lot of thought and time into the planning of each of his events. And delivers them superbly.

Even I learn and I'm the one modelling!

Tonight we focused on outdoor shots as well as working with gels and glamour lighting. Everyone I hope went away happy. I know I did.

I booked to attend one of Ian's workshops covering single light techniques shooting art nude. Whilst I am an experienced studio photographer, art nude was something entirely new for me. Ian ran the workshop in a very professional manner and covered three different single light set ups in depth. I learned a great deal and came away with comprehensive fact sheets detailing everything that had been covered during the session. Very informative, well delivered and great value. Would recommend.

Ian is a very experienced professional photographer whom I have got to know through attending his excellent Academy programme of photography and Lightroom courses and workshops. I booked with Ian, and a model called Lila DeWitt, a 3 hours assisted studio shoot for me to learn more from Ian about studio lighting set ups and working with models. Ian is a friendly cheerful guy who delivered his practical tuition for me in very easily understandable stages, we decided on a range of different lighting set ups and backdrops for five shoot sets, each shoot set was very successful and I'm extremely pleased with the resulting images. Many thanks Ian for giving me such excellent training/mentoring, very much appreciated. I hope to arrange another assisted shoot (next time outdoors using natural light, flash and modifiers) with Ian and a model. Very highly recommended.

I attended an academy event on Friday night and whilst I didn't shoot myself (not a huge fan of group shoots where you take 6 shots and then wait another go - but I understand the logic), I did learn from the experience. I had a shoot arranged the following afternoon which I used as my first daylight Speedlight shoot. I have used the built in flash on my cameras as fill previously but never actually taken flash off camera. The results were not stunning but they are better than they would have been without flash and are a stepping stone to better images.

Ian is friendly and has an easy delivery style. I would recommend him to any novice tog looking to learn more about their art.

I recently took part as a model for a Film Noire themed Studio Evening at Ian's Studio and had a brilliant time. The photographers who took part were very welcoming and had some brilliant ideas of what they wanted to shoot.

Ian himself is incredibly knowledgeable and gave both the photographers and myself some great tips to achieving the perfect shot.

I look forward to getting the opportunity to work with Ian and the Studio again very soon and would 100% recommend to all budding photographers and models.

I attended another training day at Ian's yesterday. Ian is very thorough in the preparation and the creativeness of his lighting set-ups. Anyone who is interested in learning and understanding flash techniques should attend one of Ian's studio days, not to mention the constant supply of tea and biscuits!

Thanks Ian
