My first shoot at Andy's studio, at one of his model studio days, with the lovely Georgia. Being the first time in this environment, it took a little while for the artistic brainwaves to fire into action - but this was kickstarted by a well-made brew. Andy is clearly very knowledgeable and was very willing to make suggestions regarding lighting etc for the various areas he has (cunningly) designed.

I am very much looking forward to shooting again in the near future, and will ensure I have given serious though to my plans for that day.

Very much recommend this studio!

My first studio shoot at Kempston with Andy, was brilliant. Andy is an genuine nice guy, who can't do enough to help you. Andy was at hand when needed to set up the sets and the lights in position. It was great that Andy would be setting up my next set when I was shooting on a different set. It was perfect for me has after Andy had set up the set I could set the lighting up as I wanted and at no time did Andy come and interfere with me shooting.

I was amazed at the amount of outfits were at the studio for the models to use, this has to be the biggest collection I have seen and good quality perfect for modelling.

There is so much opportunity to create different styles with the sets and just plain backgrounds, it would be easy to a full day shooting.

There is a plenty of lighting equipment which had everything I needed.

Andy has worked hard creating his studio and it shows. Thank you and best of luck, I will be returning.

First time at Andy’s studio in Kempston, great space with easily adaptable sets, lighting options & props, giving a wide variety of looks. Andy’s friendly nature and support with setups and lighting tips made the experience relaxing and enjoyable, he also makes a good cuppa.

I had my first photoshoot at the Kempston Studio with the awesome Caitlyn J. It's a great working environment - the versatile nature of the studio allows for different set-ups that provide endless opportunities for creative shooting. I had a warm welcome from Andy and found the studio to be a very supportive and friendly environment to shoot in. I will definitely be returning.

My second shoot at Kempston Studio, this time with the wonderful Caitlyn J.

Andy is a great host who can't do enough for you to make the shoot go as smoothly as possible. Admin and comms are spot on and he makes a great cuppa.

A fantastic studio and I can't recommend it highly enough. Thanks Andy and see you again soon.

A couple of people had recommended that I visit Kempston Studio, and having gone to one of their studio days today, I can see why. The studio is equipped with a full range of lights and modifiers and has been cleverly arranged into many different versatile sets. It has a healthy sized wardrobe and an excellent selection of props. Andy is very friendly and helpful, he is happy to leave you to it, but is also willing to offer advice and help with set ups if asked. I will definitely be coming back as I have already booked another visit!

I absolutely LOVE coming back to Kempston studio. I've already clocked up my fair share of hours here, and every single one I have enjoyed thoroughly. It's not hard to find ideas to work with within the studio, as it is is very well equipped, and the space has been utilised impressively, with an array of versatile sets to use, as well as the largest wardrobe I've seen in a studio. Andy is a pleasure to be around, such a professional and always on hand to help and goes above and beyond. It is clear that model safety is incredibly important to him, it's a reassurance to have an owner like him around. Precomms are fab, and he is effective in smoothly organising model days - all I have to do is show up! I cannot thank him enough for making my life so easy when working at his studio: he's both a fantastic studio owner and wonderful person.

Can't wait to be back ASAP! Highly, highly recommend :)

I am really really happy with shooting with Andy. He is very professional, his studio is awesome and full of amazing stuff. Andy picked me up from the station and offered drinks, I was feeling very comfortable all the time

Highly recommended and looking forward to next shooting with him!

I had a fantastic shoot with Roxy and Serenity at Kempston Studio. Everyone was professional, fun and easy to work with. The images obtained ranged from glamour to adult. Both models were relaxed and exhibited a natural chemistry whilst working together in front of the camera. The studio allows for versatility with professional assistance for setting up lighting and props. I would recommend Roxy and Serenity to any professional photographer looking for a duo. The same goes for Kempston Studio. I look forward to working with you all in the future.

Another shoot at Kempston, Roxy & Serenity duo day. Andy keeps everything running smoothly which makes the time spent more productive. The Tea keeps coming and very happy to recommend this studio to all. :)

I’ve just come away from two fantastic days at Kempston Studio!!

Andy hosted Roxy & I for two duo studio days and both days were so enjoyable. I couldn’t have asked for a more accommodating and comfortable experience! Nothing was too much trouble for Andy and he really looks after models that shoot at the studio. He kindly drove me to/from the studio, made sure we were sorted for breakfast/lunch and had tea/coffee on tap!

The studio is a fantastic place to shoot! The use of space is great and there’s so much variety with sets. It’s nice to shoot somewhere that offers atmosphere as well as the usual basic backgrounds.

Andy was also incredibly helpful with the photographers and was always around when assistance was needed.

Lots of shoot options and possibilities for a wide range of different styles/genres. The two days just flew by! The atmosphere was really nice and I felt safe and looked after throughout.

I would highly recommend Kempston studio and also Andy as a studio owner too.

I look forward to my return!

My second time at Kempston and another great shoot. Andy was really helpful, working hard to change sets as required and providing endless supply of drinks.

Its amazing how much scope for different looks there are within his space. Really pleased with results and will certainly be back.

Had my first shoot at Kempston studio today, what a wonderful space it is! Great sets, fantastic furniture and props, lots of clothing and items to use in the dressing room. Clean and tidy all round also very warm 😌

Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to use this studio.

Thanks for having me x

I had another fabulous day working at Kempston Studio. There are so many options it’s impossible to get bored! Andy was great as always, he’s so good with lighting and set ups and makes sure the shoot runs smoothly. This time I did a cake smash and Andy set up brilliantly.

One of my absolute favourite studios to work at. Cannot recommend this place highly enough!

I have had another couple of shoots at Kempston Studio recently culminating in a long session today with the stunning Rebecca Perry.

Andy is always able to come up with the perfect lighting arrangement whatever theme we are shooting, and is very willing to make suggestions for improvement or come up with novel ideas and variations. He has an amazing eye for creating a stunning image and I always appreciate his advice re camera angles etc and the numerous other ways he has for continually improving the image and his enthusiasm for helping out in any way possible. Today for example he wound up holding lights and a backdrop in position among other things and came up with improvements of some of the props I had brought.

He is great fun to work with and the models all seem to appreciate his easy-going and friendly approach – and they always get well looked after! It always creates a pleasant and enjoyable atmosphere to work in and I am certain that the models are better able to produce their best work if they are comfortable, safe and relaxed.

It is always an immensely educational experience for me and I am never quite sure what he will come up with next – only that it is likely to be very creative, make the shoot more interesting and produce even better images. OTOH if you prefer to be left alone to get on with it yourself he is very happy to accommodate that too. Thanks Andy!

I already have several more shoots booked in for the very near future.

Rebecca Perry

I have been modelling across the globe for nine years and I can honestly say that Andy (the studio owner) is one of the most welcoming and nicest people you can meet in the industry.

I cannot recommend the studio enough! Truly superb inside and out. The space is very versatile to work in.

An excellent space and I always felt so fully looked after from the moment I arrived to leaving.

I already look forward to my next visit :-)

Very very very highly recommended by me to all models and photographers!

My kindest regards

Wow! This was the first proper studio I've shot at and it did not disappoint. Andy keeps the place at a nice warm temperature and the set has a welcoming and professional atmosphere. It has so many sets and options you can let your imagination run wild and get some amazing pictures.

Andy was amazing and made me and my partner feel very comfortable. It was my partner's first time modeling and Andy was supportive and had great feedback and suggestions as well as good directions in terms of posing. I would recommend the studio and Andy a million times over. Thanks for a great experience!
