Orchard Studio, Cambridge

The studio is part of my home but has been set up with photography specifically in mind.  There are high ceilings, a kitchen (refreshments are free of charge).  There is also a shower room and a separate room able to be used as a changing room.  In that changing room there is a "Hollywood" style mirror and a full length mirror plus seating and a hanging rail. 

The studio is equipped mainly with "Elinchrom" lighting but there are other lights available and more will be added over time.  There is a variety of different modifiers for the lights and again more will be added.  With regard to backdrops, there are a number of vinyl and fabric backdrops available.  There is a paper backdrop system using various "Colorama" rolls with again more being added.  If a specific colour is needed then this can be arranged before the shoot, given enough time, but if it is not already held or wanted, then I will need to charge for this at cost.  

The studio has large bi-fold doors down one side so natural light is plentiful.  It is kept warm during the cooler months and a portable air conditioner is available in the warmer ones. 

I will be around to assist but I am sensitive to not interfering when a shoot is taking place. The studio has free Wi-Fi and a makeup artist can be arranged at additional cost. 

Studio hire rates are £25 per hour for the first two hours (which is also the minimum booking).  Thereafter the rate will be £20 per hour.  In addition to hiring out the studio for 1 to 1 shoots, the intention is to run occasional group shoots and model days which I will advertise on here.  I would ask that when booking the studio, payment is made in full at that time.  A reservation will not be made otherwise.  If cancellation is made within 72 hours of the proposed shoot time then payment will be retained.  If I cancel for any reason then obviously any amounts paid for the hire will be fully refunded.

I will endeavour to keep the Purpleport calendar for the studio up to date.

Personally I have LRPS and AFIAP distinctions.

Group Shoots

A group shoot has been arranged for 28th November 6-9pm, with a Christmas theme.  The shoot will be with Alyssa Taylor and will be for a max of 4 photographers (Now fully booked). 

Due to overwhelming support for the first Christmas group shoot date, a second date was added. This second Christmas themed group shoot will be on the 3rd December, again from 6-9pm (Also now fully booked). 

There was a very favourable reception towards having a third and final group Christmas shoot, so this was set up for the 5th December, again 6-9pm.  (and again fully booked). 

Alyssa has said that she would be willing to do some 2 hour 121's before any of the group shoots.  Message me or Alyssa if interested.

A group shoot has now been sorted out for 31st January 2025 with Georgia_mae1 on the theme of "Valentines day".  It will be from 6-9pm, as usual and with a cost of just £40 per person.  I have not published the event listing yet (seems a bit early to do so) but if anyone wants to book in regardless, let me know... I have a feeling that this will sell out fast as one space has gone already. 

Studio Days

On the 9th November I have a personal booking with AJ The Model.  If anyone would like to do a 121 shoot with this very talented model after 2pm  please message me or AJ (This has now been booked).

On the 22nd November I have a Studio day with Jynx.  121 at a cost of £140.00 per slot.   Jynx models to Erotic & open leg. (This is now fully booked).
