HOW CAN I DO THIS REFERENCE JUSTICE AFTER ANDY'S INCREDIBLE REFERENCE TO ME HAHAHAHAHAHAHA...

I walk in and straight away spot my favourite chocolates...Num num num...

I keep returning to do studio days here...I am like a yoho on steroids...Why do I keep returning...because Andy and his studio are top notch...

I cannot describe how amazing it is here...You really do need to go to see...

Andy is always on hand when you need him and disappears when you don't...

One thing I absolutely love about Andy is his positive attitude, no matter what you are trying to achieve Andy will make sure it works...

I am very comfortable here and I go away with a smile on my face...

Andy is constantly making me laugh too...The photographer was doing a wet tshirt shot and I thought what the hell lets do this...Andy arrives with a massive bucket and says shall I? I was like ok then (without really giving it much thought)...Luckily he was just teasing me...I couldn't stop laughing...

Thank you soooooooooooooooooooo much for such a good studio day...

My first shoot at this studio, which is quite a long way from home, but the drive was worth it. Andy has packed a lot into the studio and created some moveable walls so that sets can be changed very quickly. He was very helpful and nothing was too much trouble. I am looking forward to another shoot here in a couple of weeks. I definitely recommend Andy and his studio.

BLOWN AWAY!!!!!! by this studio ,

So i noticed this studio "kempston " keep popping up on all these models insta pages and i was like , where is this . So its , bedford... 3. 5 hrs away .

So i thoguht , lets open up two days , and run all the way through to make the journey profitable and allow for free spaces...

Well, within a couple of weeks id SOLD OUT and had already booked in another weekend which had almost done the same ! I mean i hadnt even finsihed my coffee and off Andy went with his promotion. It was very fast , so i was approaching the studio with high expectations...

Everything , pre comms and everything totally managed by Andy .

I get to the studio , i walk in and my mouth drops . Wow!!!! We could have some fun here. The amount of diversity the studio offers is incredible . And the quality of the setups is amazing. You could only dream of shooting a model in a mansion with the level of interior it would offer ..yet Andy has hand crafted his displays to reflect just that , saving you an absolute fortune! Plus - HE IS SOO incredibly hands on and helpful and clever! There was no problem that couldn't be solved and any ideas the photographers had, he instantly knew what to do.

The rate of the studio is incredibly reasonable and by far the BEST equipped studio in my 10 years or so of modelling ! with the studio owners support and expertise , i can only begin to imagine what could be created.

Mind BLOWN !!!! absolutely!!!

Oh , and for the models , Andy has a shower, a perfect dressing room with everything you could want, he keeps the place warm, has kitchen facilities and literally everything you could want and need as a model (well- except for paracetamol) but no doubt the next time i come he will !

LEGEND ...he is .

Loved it and cant wait to come again !

Wow 🤩 what an amazing model studio day with Ashley Ashton at Kempston studio. I simply love this studio very much. I was there on the previous day for another shoot with Bella Grace and at that time I discussed with Andy some ideas and moodboards that I would like to attempt with my shoot with Ashley. I was absolutely happy when he said it is perfectly possible and he made it happen ☺️ we used optical snoot and gobo lighting and used the furnished sets around to create a unique environment which was perhaps never tried before. Andy was there to create the entire setup and was helping continuously to get the desired outcome and we indeed achieved it 🙌🙌🙌 once again thank you Andy and I highly recommend photographers and models to this studio to explore creativity and capture some amazing images with different backgrounds and setups. I’m again visiting in February at this studio for an model studio day with Angel Black ☺️👍

Another great shoot At Kempston Studio with the beautiful ‘AshleyAshton222’ as part of a studio day. Andy is a wonderful host and nothing is too much trouble; thank you Andy !

I had a wonderful fun loving photoshoot with Bella Grace at Kempston studios. Kempston is one of my favourite studios and I always love to visit here. This was my second time at this venue. Andy is very easy to communicate with and very friendly. He is always there to help with different ideas and setups. The shoots are always fun loving with Andy around. The furnished sets and wardrobe are absolutely gorgeous and amazing. I highly recommend photographers and models to this studio. Andy, a big thank you for this opportunity and I’m looking forward to many more opportunities in this year and beyond. ☺️👍

This was my second time at the fabulous Kempston Studio ( I had 2 model days there)!

Andy was once again a brilliant host who went out of his way to make feel welcome.

Andy offered coffee/tea on arrival and he kept me hydrated throughout our time there. Andy is always helpful! And he has great taste in music ( in the end second model day he cheered me up with techno music haha).

I'm so impressed by this studio. The lighting equipment as well as how warm, clean and tidy. Altogether this contributes to an enjoyable and creative experience. I shall certainly be returning!

I can't find anything to criticise and I can unreservedly recommend Kempston Studio!

Another super shoot at Kempston Studio, this time with Anna Chumakova. As always, Andy was super helpful with getting the lighting just right for me. My favourite studio. Thanks Andy. Looking forward to seeing you again soon.

First time at Kempston Studio (which is not far from where I live) to shoot with the really amazing Janna Evstafeva. The space is great with loads of kit and plenty of options for different setups. Andy is a friendly, reassuring presence to have there. I'm mostly used to photographing products, so was really grateful to be able to call on his insights and expertise to get the best out of the lighting setups. Thoroughly enjoyed being there and absolutely delighted with the results.

Janna Evstafeva

What a fantastic photo studio !!!

In it you can find everything for a cool photo shoot, a lot of equipment and locations for shooting that look amazing and are very well thought out.

Both beginners and professionals will feel comfortable and confident in this studio.

Everything is done at the highest level.

Be sure that you will have everything for amazing photos.

As a model, it was very comfortable for me to work in this photo studio.

Andy is a very friendly, attentive and pleasant person. I highly recommend Andy and his studio to everyone, models and photographers.

Thanks and see you soon!

First time at Kempston Studio and first time in studio.

Andy made it comfortable and easy, assisting brilliantly with the lights and providing much-needed guidance and direction. He also provided lightroom tips for sharing the shoot and setup the tethered display to the screen.

A great first experience was had.

I had my first studio day at kempston studios which was a great experience! I really enjoyed the studio day which was sold out. Andy had thought of everything, from a menu provided for lunch to my own itinerary of the day.

Time flew by and before i knew it we were finished and I was very happy with how the day went. Andy has booked me in for another studio day on the 3rd February which I’m very much looking forward to

Thank you Andy, You’re the best!

Another most successful and enjoyable session at Kempston Studio, marking a long absence from model photography for me. Andy was, as always, exceptionally helpful and built the sets and moved the lights that I requested efficiently and without fuss. Hopefully, this visit will mark a more regular return to model photography for me, and I can't recommend Andy and Kempston Studio too highly. Well recommended to any photographer who is looking for a friendly and well equipped studio in the Bedford area. As always, thank you for everything Andy.

I visited Kempston Studio for the first time today. Andy is very friendly and helpful but allows you to get on without being obtrusive. The studio is well organised and equipped providing lots of shooting opportunities. Hoping yo shoot there again. Highly recommended.

Mansoor Ali

I had my first photo shoot at Kempston Studio today. The owner Andy was friendly and showed me photos of different themes I can have in his studio. There are lots of props and plenty of lights. Different backgrounds & floor coverings enable one to achieve lots of styles. Andy was always available to help with my camera settings, and the two hours I spent there were enjoyable. Highly recommended.

Organised Chaos

Not sure how many times I have hired this studio since I started my new hobby in February of this year although I know it is over 14 by now easily & the reason why I can't remember the amount of times is because visiting here,hiring here is always a positive good fun experience due to the following

Andy the studio owner is always a joy to be around ,he always & I do mean always helps me from me being confounded by We Transfer,Photo Shop,Instagram,basically all the computer stuff that gives me a headache Andy guides me through also camera settings,light settings everything that makes all my wants of improvement become fact.

Andy is also super helpful to Models assisting pretty much all the model asks of him as Andy is a professional,genuine gentleman.

The studio now as I come to shoots with a Camera rucksack,I also have at least 2 super large holdalls of clothes,a make up small rucksack,shoe boxes so the fact the studio parking is right outside the studio entrance with no stairs is such a welcome.

My photography improving all the time is really down to 2 important reasons & these are Andy the studio owner & the models .

Thankyou & looking forward to next time,

Alec 😀.

Had my second shoot at Kempston studio for a model day - Andy was fantastic on hand to help. He helped with lighting techniques, demonstrating how to create certain effects and walked through a good process to altering lighting and camera settings to capture some great images!

Thanks again Andy for your help, I'm very grateful!

I look forward to visiting again.

I've been to Kempston studio a handful of times now and it certainly is a very welcoming atmosphere! Andy the studio owner is a delight to talk to, very respectful and is always happy to help out. The studio itself is a beautiful space, filled with countless props and various sets to get creative with. I have thoroughly enjoyed the time I have spent there and I certainly would recommend to any photographer / model. :)
