Only my second time at Kempston and already my favourite studio. Partaking of one of the planned studio days, with Gems MDS, I had sent Andy a brief idea of my plans beforehand and he had got the studio set up perfectly. The perfect balance of helpful assistance without being a nuisance or overbearing. Very knowledgeable and assisted greatly in the success of my first foray into GOBOs and gels. Thanks Andy.

This was my first time at Kempston studios & it certainly won’t be last time, I’m already booked for a studio day this April & I'm really looking forward to it! It’s a great studio with very good use of the space for different sets with a brilliant model space. Andy is extremely friendly & chatty, he makes you feel comfortable straight away & it’s a very positive work space to be in! Thanks Andy :)

I have now booked Kempston Studios 4 times obviously the fact the studio has a cornucopia of abundant sets,pieces a model can use,a fully enclosed changing area for the model to change in,tea,coffe,water (bottled),coca cola (canned),pc for editing,so many lights & backdrops it really is the studio as parking out front of the road & heating it is warm & I know I have not used any other studios but why be cold 😲.

The real biggest bonus is Andy the studio owner who is always welcoming,friendly,always there in his office to ask for help & indeed in my shoots continually show me camera settings, lighting & editing he really goes that extra mile for those using the studio to the point where he truly does help me to become better in all aspects of photography.

I also really like the model studio days & be is genuinely helpful kind & considerate of others 👏.

Thankyou.

I had another brilliant couple of days shooting at Kempston Studio. As always, Andy was warm, accommodating and so helpful in each of the shoots.

This studio is somewhere I can never tire of working. There is simply so much to do here and it’s always such a pleasure and a laugh I always want to come back.

Andy lends his creativity and expertise and is so efficient with changing sets so a variety is possible in a 2 hour slot.

This studio has got to be a favourite for me, and I shall keep returning as long as Andy is happy to have me 😊

Thank you so much!

This was my 3rd time using Kempston Studio & it was again the best possible experience I could have asked for.

Andy is a very engaging thoroughly enjoyable person to be around so because Andy has tremendous people skills you feel happy at the studio & also Andy will always give advice when asked but also as Andy will help by showing you camera settings,light everything really you could ask for as well as great coffee it is a really relaxed place to be in & as I asked Andy about my images Andy pointed out the white balance setting was not set correctly on my camera.

This is what makes me want to use Kempston Studio again & well more because Andy has it in his nature to help you become a better photographer,he gels well with all from pbotographer,models & has also found a MUA for me for some upcoming shoots.

In all this studio is not just merely value for money it is a most impressive place to have your studio experience because of Andy.

Thankyou Andy see you soon.

Andy's built up quite a reputation, and my full day in his studio merely confirmed it all.

I had three shoots throughout the day. Andy assisted, guided and did everything to make sure it went as well as possible. Oh - and the coffee.

Andy was a true gent with my models. Lauret already knew about Kempston Studio. Lady-Viper was very enthusiastic. I had a couple for a maternity shoot who were new to all of this, and Andy was on hand to help make them comfortable.

I'll definitely be using the studio again.

Kempston Studio comes very much recommended.

Thanks again Andy.

This was my first shoot at Kempston Studio, Andy made me most welcome with a great friendly greeting and a lovely cuppa.

I had a very specific brief to shoot too, which was very challenging indeed. Andy could not have been more helpful in assisting me in achieving this shot... thank you, and look forward to working with you again.

I have done multiple shoots with Andy now at Kempston studio. Each time I get more and more confident with myself. Andy has so many resources at kempston studio and always makes me feel so comfortable. He always gives me direction when needed and always captures amazing images of me. It is always an amazing pleasure to work with Andy. I will always shoot with him and always look forward to my next shoot. We always put our head together and have an amazing fun executing our ideas.

Had my first shoot in Kempston studio and I loved every second of it! When I arrived Andy made me feel really comfortable and showed me some examples of sets we could work on and inspiration for different shoots we could try.

The studio itself is really well equipped and has so many possibilities for different backdrops and Andy was great at changing things around so each set looked completely different to the last.

A really nice changing area with lots of outfits provided that you can add to your own outfits to really improve the shot. Andy was amazing at suggesting different outfits to match the backdrops he picked and everything just worked so perfectly.

Andy gave me loads of new poses to try out and I am so happy with how much I got out of the day!

The hours flew by and I didn't want to leave, had such a buzz after.

Andy kindly drove me home after as well and just made the whole experience a dream.

The only hard part is now I have to pick my favourite images out of so many amazing shots!

Cant wait to come back

For the very first time I worked in Kempston Studio. Andy was very helpful in assisting Rudy Reid with his work and he helped me out a lot. Very polite and well mannered. I would highly recommend the studio for any model. Thank you Andy

Had my first shoot at kempston studios today.

Andy greeted me with a warm welcome, and introduced me to Michelle Chelsea, the model I would be shooting.

He then helped me familiarise myself with the studio set up, lights etc, he knows his stuff!!

I only had a two hour slot, but with Andy’s knowledge and help moving furniture, props etc,

I managed seven different sets, he’s always on hand if you need help.

A genuine nice guy with a fantastic studio that has endless shooting possibilities.

I highly recommend kempston studios, I will be booking the studio in the not too distant future.

Thanks Andy

Michelle Chelsea

I had my first studio day at Kempston and I really enjoyed my time there.

Andy is very welcoming, helpful, respectful and an overall lovely guy!

Andy is well organised, the studio was warm and there is a variety of equipment, lighting and sets to work with.

I would highly recommend Kempston studio to any models or photographers.

Thank you for an amazing day and hope to see you again soon!

At this point, I’m repeating the words of many others in that Andy along with Kempston truly are amazing. The space is so adaptable you wouldn’t believe, the options are endless! Perfect model room and Andy really does cater for everything you could possibly need. To the studio owner, Andy, who is one of the most supportive and helpful studio owners I’ve met - his ability to know when he is needed and when to step back is impeccable- a real gentlemen and pleasure to work with! See you at the end of March!

I had my first studio day at Kempston and I couldn’t of enjoyed it more, so much that I’ve already booked a studio weekend!!!

Andy is lovely, helpful and respectful. He’s so passionate about what he does and you can tell that straight away by the studio he constructed himself, 8 different backgrounds, it’s truly amazing. Im very honoured to have been asked to come back and am looking forward to it very much. Thank you for everything Andy! You are a star x

Another great shoot at Kempston Studio today on the Georgia Brown and Bethany April duo day. As usual, Andy was on hand to set the backgrounds and build the sets, and to offer useful advice. I shot natural light at the studio for a couple of sets..which is not something that I often do, and Andy's advice was superb. I came away from our session with some really beautiful images that the models also liked. Thanks, Andy, another super session at your studio. Kempston Studio is well recommended to any photographer and model.

Another visit to see Andy at Kempston studio, won't be the last for sure. As ever Andy runs around behind the scenes like a blue arsed fly getting everything done for you, and still has time to make good coffee

Cheers Andy

👍😁

I had spoken to Andy who owns & runs Kempston Studio the day before & asked if Georgia Brown's studio day had any openings could I have first refusal & as it would have it there was an opening that came up the morning of the studio day so I gladly said I would fill it.

Andy have me all the studio information & I got the best 1st experience of studio photography I could have asked for as both Andy & Georgia went out of their way to give a complete newbie novice like me the advice I needed as well Andy really tutoring me on studio lighting,camera settings.

I can't recommend Andy & his studio enough as not only does the studio have so many sets & the utilizing of the space is incredible because the studio is by no means small but it is abundant with sets.

Thankyou Andy for your help.

I had a really enjoyable shoot with Georgia Brown today at Kempston Studio. Andy was very helpful in showing me round the studio and after a cup of coffee I had a very productive shoot with Georgia. The studio is compact and contains a lot well constructed sets with flexibility with regards to lighting whether strobe or continuous. Andy is well organised as stocking lighting, attachments and dresses for models in compact areas. Thanks again Andy for a good photographic session. I am looking forward to arranging another shoot soon.
