My second time at Image Red studios, love working here Brian the owner helps you out if you need help and provides coffee and tea when needed.Its fast becoming my local studio if you consider Tamworth/Bolton-le-sands near to one another (look on a map north west of England)

Highly recommend

Always a pleasure to work at Image Red!!!

Brian is so welcoming, warm and friendly, you feel at home, happy to help in any way he can. He takes care to offer you drinks, make sure you're warm enough, and that you feel comfortable on any shoot.

Not only is the studio area spacious and well-equipped, the light and effects you can capture in The Loft area are so fantastic - it's a wonderful space to create in. And though that area is partially derelict - he does a fantastic job of warming it up fast with a massive heater, even in winter I am never cold there.

A real gem to have a mix of such an interesting, grungy, natural light location, with the studio space to boot!

Highly recommended!!!

As always with Image Red, extremely helpful, kind and considerate. The studio is fully accessible for disabled photographers like myself. Brian is extremely help and knowledgeable, his is always willing to share his knowledge and help models as well as photographers but in a very professional way.

Had a fantastic shoot with Cariad Cellis at Image red yesterday. it was the first time I had used studio lights in the main studio. Being a novice with studio lights, Brian helped me out with the lighting. His assistance and advice throughout the shoot was invaluable. I got some really great images. The atmosphere is friendly and it's a great place to shoot. I will definitely be using Image Red again. Thanks Brian.

This was the first time I had an opportunity to shoot at the excellent Image Red Studio. Brian was very friendly and welcoming. And he was very supportive throughout the whole day of shooting. As a part time Hobbyist Photographer, I only shoot a few times a year. Brian understood this and offered me great support and advice. The studio was also excellent. One part of the Studio was used with Studio lighting. And just a short walk across, there is also the amazing Loft Studio. This was a beautiful old historical building wish sash windows etc. And this part of the Studio was perfect for natural light shots. There were also some great props available from an old Piano to some lovely old textured material backgrounds. All in all, I had a lot of fun, came back with some excellent images, and really enjoyed shooting at Image Red. And I very much look forward to shooting there again. Thank you Brian. Very highly recommended.

I have used Image Red Studio numerous time and hand on heart I have never had a bad experience as a photographer. Brian is so warm, kind and supportive to both the photographers needs and requirements and this is also shown to the models. Brian is extremely knowledgable about photography, modelling and studio light setups. I am disabled but Image Red Studio is accessible as the studio is all on the ground floor. The model has their own dedicated changing area which is secure to allow the model full privacy. I would like to say a massive thank you to Brian for all his help and support. Cannot wait for my next studio shoot at Image Red Studio. I highly recommend Image Red Studio to and photographer and/or model.

I believe this is my second shoot at image Red. The studio owner was very welcoming and offered refreshments, was on hand for help if needed but didn't hover. Lovely changing room and the studio was a comfortable temperature. Must remember how local this lovely studio is and use again! Can fully recommend :)

I recently had a duo shoot at Image Red and I had a fantastic time. This was my first shoot at the studio and I hope to go back soon. When I arrived I was greeted by Brian who was warm and welcoming. We worked in the loft area for the shoot and it had such beautiful natural light. It was so wonderful and be able to create different shapes in the window. It was also great to have lots of different things to pose in such as the bath and basket. I really enjoyed my time there and I hope to work there again soon. Thanks Brian!

Had my first photo shoot at Image Red Studio fantastic studio two work with my two chosen models Nicole Rayner and Ivory Flame (who could be considered local to this studio).

Brian was the perfect host helping me out with the lights and doing the studio tour....and coffee and teas.

I would love to shoot here again I can travel to it in a day and back on the train just from where I live so if Brian will have me back I might plan another shoot sometime later in the year.

Highly recommend.

Today I worked at The Loft/Image Red with MikeyP, due to his suggestion. There were so many options for set up, I was kept hydrated with juice and tea and coffee as well as biscuit offers.

What an amazing space! So much natural light, so many props to use. Every area was fascinating to explore.

I still feel I haven't entirely explored everything the studio has to offer even only working there today, and would love to work again here.

(A big plus: gas heaters! When I was cold it was easy enough to warm up).

Would highly recommend to photographers in and around or even outside of the area, and models to book.

I worked at Image Red in the loft last week. Brian welcomed me in and made me coffee as I awaited Colin and Jennys arrival.

Brian was brilliant, made me feel comfortable and safe and even helped carry my bags over to the loft.

He has a brilliant studio, with magnificent items and props within the loft studio. It worked beautifully for ballet!

Look forward to shooting again at the studio

Highly recommend
