Had a great lighting workshop group session at Loud and Flashy featuring the model Nicole Rayner. Simon was very helpful with the lighting set-ups, allowing us to experiment and see the effect of placing the lights, etc. Highly recommended.

Nicole Rayner

Well well well - Loud and Flashy!

ONLY ONE OF MY FAVOURITE STUDIOS EVER!!! I currently work with 3 studios on a regular basis, in the entire U.K.! Loud and Flash is 1 of those 3 studios which I feel says A LOT!!

The space itself is just brilliant!! Wonderful natural light! An amazing space! Great sets. All the equipment you could need or want ! Stunning floor! The best guard dog/mascot in the world - Simon. I mean, Lina! 😂😂

Simon, the owner, is a wonderful gentleman with brilliant banter! A shoot at Loud and Flashy is always LOADS of FUN!! Simon has a great rapport with his clients and the model! He is professional and respectful and always makes sure the models are well looked after!!

I must also say, having modelled for 2 of Simon’s lighting workshops (as well as many others) - Simon really is one of the best! He is a FANTASTIC teacher and he really knows his stuff! I love love love working with Simon as he’s great to bounce off and he has a wonderful energy throughout!!

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Studio and the lovely Simon!!!

What an awesome studio!! Simon contacted me a little while ago to ask if I could attend the studio for a group shoot. I was so thrilled he asked me and I couldn’t wait to shoot!

When I arrived I was greeted by Simon who was friendly, chatty and I was showed around.

The studio space is really awesome, I was blown away by how beautiful the upstairs was. So much natural light and the bed set with the frame, gold fabric and cushions works so well. It really compliments the window. I was offered hot drinks and made sure I was warm enough throughout the shoot which I appreciated.

Simon was also great to work with as a photographer also. His knowledge of lighting is just amazing. His pictures were really beautiful that he took of me.

I thoroughly enjoyed my shoot there and I hope I get to work there again in the future. Highly recommended from me! Thanks Simon!

Back at Loud and Flashy studios today for a fantastic Lighting Workshop. Simon the owner was friendly, informative and fun so each of the photograpers learnt a lot. His choice of model for the day was inspired and we got to work with the lovely Nicole Rayner, who was just an outstanding model. If you want ot improve your skills as a photographer then jump at any chance you get to work with Simon at the Loud and Flashy studios. Highly recommended

Brilliant 'Creative Night' with several great models and photographers. Everyone was super friendly, helpful and the atmosphere was terrific. Masses of variety with Simon, and others, on hand to offer advice and assistance. Various lighting set-ups and themes. If you have never used a studio before this is the one I can thoroughly recommend.

Ruby Rosetta, a model I'd shot before contacted me to say she was in the area and I could shoot her if I could find a studio. I contacted Simon at Loud and Flashy at short notice and he went out of his way to help.

Being a non-driver, I could not get to the studio easily and Simon offered to pick me up and return me … and that involved quite a long drive. This was really helpful and much appreciated.

The studio was quite large and had far more than I needed for this shot. What I did use was great and Simon was on-hand to provide help.

I was very impressed by the service I had and would recommend the studio to any photographer without hesitation.

The previous reference mentioned Simons dog (puppy). Yes, it was by far the most beautiful dog I'd ever seen. No model, however beautiful, could compete with it. I had a great day at Loud and Flashy.

What a fantastic studio!

Simon organises the day beautifully and provides coffee and tea throughout.

The studio has fantastic versatility with lights, backdrops etc.

Not only that but he has the CUTEST DOG IN THE WORLD!!

She does try and use her cuteness to her advantage so be warned!

Had a super fun day, loved every minute!

Lots of laughs and throughly enjoyed it!

If you haven't been go!

Had a really good first shoot at this great studio. It has flexibility with a decent area for studio lighting with a variety of backgrounds and then an enormous natural light area upstairs with a super feature window and many other possibilities due to its size.

Simon was on hand to give advice and help with the kit.

A super experience and highly recommended.

Back again already! I had a shoot today at Loud & Flashy with TBPhotography, focusing on low-key bodyscapes. Si was a great help with lighting, and was on hand if any assistance was needed. His dog was also adorable, bonus! I recommend the studio (and the owner!) to photographers, models, MUAs and designers alike.

I attended my first group shoot at Loud and Flashy today (15th). The welcome from Simon was great, the changing rooms were comfortable, the coffee was tasty and the shooting facilities were versatile and flexible for whatever flights of the imagination spring forth. Recommended, and I'll definitely be coming back to the studio again.

Had a great evening at a creative might in Loud and Flashy. It was my first visit and I couldn't have been made more welcome. Advice about lighting was freel available and it was terrific to work with some really great models. I will definitely be back and I can't recommend the studio more highly.

I have just started to do shoots at Loud and Flashy, Si is very helpful and easygoing. Ask a question and he will help. The people using the studio are friendly and helpful. Recommend this studio to anyone.

Bobbi Castle

Had another great studio day at L&F. Studio owner Simon was helpful as always helping people with lights and making coffes. Its a great studio with good natural light and plenty of options for shooting.

This was a group shoot at Loud and Flashy Studio featuring model Bobbi Castle. The studio is well equipped and presented with a variety of lighting and set-up opportunities. Simon the owner was always available with friendly and competent advice and suggestions (and also ensured a supply of light refreshments). The session was ready to go at the appointed time and our small group were able to make some great images.

Highly recommended.

Bobbi Castle

I have worked at loud and flashy many times as it’s my local studio. This time I was at the monthly creative night. I always love working there, studio owner Si is always really helpful and makes a nice coffee. I’m already planning my next shoot there so I would recommend :D

Belle Eve

I had my second trip to Loud and flash last week for a couple of group shoots. The studio has everything you can need, plus lots of coffee and its warm which is always awesome as a model that cant keep her shoes on.

I was well looked after and can only recommend this lovely space.

Much love,

Eve

I was booked to model for a lighting tuition course held at the studio. Owner simon picked me up and dropped me off which is nice. Lots of tea and coffee, Simon was great at teaching and I actually learned a little myself. Would love to go back and work there again. Recommend for sure.

Worked in this studio yesterday with a lovely photographer who hired the studio for use and a fellow model friend of mine.

I loved the space. So much room and very light and airy. The boudoir set upstairs was beautiful too. The studio is warm, inviting and a great space for any shoot. Facilities and parking were excellent too.

The owner of the studio was very hospitable and easy to get along with. Always at hand to help move/adjust equipment plus he makes a cracking cuppa!

Definitely recommended and will be looking forward to working here again.
