Only my second time at the studio, but it was very enjoyable. Andy is always very welcoming and happy to assist with setting up lighting and moving sets around. The studio is very well organised and versatile, and it is very quick to change one set into another. I have no hesitation in recommending this studio.

Back again for three days of studio days all organized by the owner Andy!

I love this studio warm , friendly, helpful (makes great tea and coffee and feeds the models too!) With everything that a model might need and all the gear and knowledge for the togs all while being a friendly owner it really does have to be one of the best studios I know and work from!

I HIGHLY recommend shooting here as it really is a great studio with many set, chairs, lamps and all the other thing you'll need to really dress a set and a Rainbow of choice for back drops too!

As a model I feel safe and looked after here that I honestly cant wait to be back here for more!

Thanks Andy!

Back again at Kempston Studio with the brilliant Andy on 10th March. Andy is incredibly helpful, the studio is brilliant with a huge variety of props, backdrops, lighting and much more and Andy is always on hand to help if necessary. Importantly, Andy makes a brilliant coffee. Highly recommended, thanks again Andy and always my go-to studio.

Despite it being very close to me this was my first shoot at Kempston and left me wondering why I'd waited so long.

The facilities are excellent and set changes are really quick and easy. Andy's assistance was invaluable and helped me to get some great shots.

I don't think it will be too long before I'm back there again.

Andy was the most helpful, knowledgeable, welcoming host and hands-on help I could have wished for on what was my first solo studio photoshoot. I'm incredibly grateful. Sod's law, key bits of my kit failed me on the day but Andy just swiftly remedied it with his own extensive studio arsenal. I honestly couldn't have achieved what I wanted without him, and I did achieve everything I had in mind, and more. Cheers Andy. I'll be back.

My 3rd visit, and this little studio offers more and more and is just gem.

I will never stop marvelling how helpful Andy is with setting up one area of the studio whilst you are shooting at the other all so you can craft your differing looks. Studio hire and assistant service all in one.

Back to this lovely studio for my second time. It’s very versatile and Andy is really welcoming and happy to help move things around. Love of different lighting available, easy to shoot any style you need. Highly recommended!

Until this Week I hadn't done a studio shoot for 4.5 years and very soon realized that I was pretty rusty regarding both camera and lighting settings but at Kempston that did not matter too much

Kempston is a small but brilliant studio that is easy to get to , very well equipped, and run by a friendly/helpful owner. Dave (tigDJB) and I did a most enjoyable four hour shared shoot with the very beautiful model Pippa (not on PP) at Kempston, Andy was more than helpful with lighting and camera set ups, we used four different sets, we captured some very satisfying images and all went home with smiles on our faces. We Couldn't ask for more. Thank you Andy

This is my 4th time at Kempston studio and I always enjoy my time at Kempston Studio. It is like being at home for me where I get to express my creativity and ideas. Its unfortunate that this studio is away from my home but it is not going to deter me to get here quite often.

The studio day with Angel this time was unbelievably the best creative day I had so far. It was like we were working as a team to achieve a common objective and goal of getting the best creative images. Andy always has the tricks to get the magical sets to create the perfect environment for theme based shoots and is always there to give tips and guidance. The Saturday's shoot with Angel was no different where he created the set of Arabian Nights and I was absolutely thrilled when he created that set within less than 5 minutes from scratch.

The environment is always jovial with positive vibes and energy. It is difficult to add to the words of what I feel when I'm at this studio.

Certainly highly recommended to all the models and photographers. Looking forward to get back here again. :-)

Kempston Studio is quite possibly the best studio I have ever been to. The studios facilities are fantastic, a great model changing area with all of the necessities, including feminine hygiene products, babywipes, makeup remover, tissues etc and a convenient place to dump your stuff! The bathroom is well equipped as well. On top of this, the studio itself has so much versatility I couldn't believe it. There are so many sets which can all be dismantled and moved around to accommodate more, which I had the pleasure to witness when Andy went above and beyond and built a custom set for a photographer there and then, which was seriously impressive. The lighting equipment is great and powerful enough to light the subject from any distance.

Another important part of Kempston, is the owner, Andy, who is an absolute gem. Not only did he make me feel incredibly welcome, he was polite and professional from the offset, as well as having a friendly approach which put me at ease straight away. He provided me with a breakfast the second morning, which was an incredibly thoughtful touch and his fridge is stocked with multiple cold beverages, as well as on demand hot drinks offer too! Nothing was too much trouble for Andy and he really did go above and beyond, and that is why his studio is so successful. I already have a second date scheduled and I can't wait to return.

Thankyou for an incredible weekend, I look forward to my return!

Had a great shoot yesterday with Angel Black at a studio day organised by Andy. In addition to arranging a great model, Andy was his usual friendly and helpful self throughout the shoot. He helped with the lighting and changed the sets in a calm, professional manner. I look forward to my next visit to Kempston Studio.

Had a great shoot with Angel Black at Kempston on Friday. Its a great place to shoot and Andy is as ever most helpful with the lighting and getting you set up really quickly. I am booked back in at least twice this year and it'll probably be more.

What a pleasure it was to have a two day studio day at Kempston studios.

Andy is a joy to be around! Everything runs smoothly and with ease at kempston thanks to Andy's hard work & can do attitude.

He is completely organised & thought of everything from food, drinks and a cosy place to stay for me.

I had such a wonderful time there. Andy is also a great photographer & was on hand to help any photographers who asked for it, teaching his knowledge and making sure they left with images they were proud of.

I also got the chance to work with Andy & love the images we created.

Run don't walk to shoot at Kempston. He is 100& professional & i felt comfortable at all times.

I already have a two day studio day booked in & can't wait for another visit!

Kempston Studio has now become my go to place for shoots. So easy to use with a variety of great sets and props. Andy quick to help as wanted or not. Go there and try it. Highly recommended.

My first visit to Kempston Studios and what a great place. Andy is a brilliant host and is available throughout for help moving lights, backgrounds etc, without being intrusive to the flow of the shoot. The studio is equipped with pretty much everything you could ask for and I was very impressed with the set up. Recommended from me and I'll definitely come back at some point.

Andy and his studio were great. He is friendly , helpful and kind.

He tried to help with my camera and eventually found the solution.

I will definitely be back soon .

Many thanks

Can I stay at Kempston forever? :P

Seriously, I have the best times at this studio. Andy is by far the best host and studio owner and everyone who comes to shoot with me there is so lovely!

There are countless areas to shoot in, loads of furniture and props and tonnes of outfits and accessories. Andy is always on hand if need be and you will get looked after here with a warm welcome and a hot cuppa!

Thank you for organising another successful and sold out studio weekend for me!

I look forward to being back soon :)
