Had a lovely shoot at cove Studios. It’s been a time since using this studio but Phil was very welcoming as he has always been, helped sort out my camera as my Parkinson’s was playing up a bit and sometimes my fingers don’t work that great. Time flew as we shot, and Phil is always around should you need anything but is never intrusive, would recommend to all looking for a studio, it’s easy to find and spacious, thank you , I’m sure it won’t be so long for next shoot

AWESOME! Book this photographer and his studio! He is such a lovely guy and immediately put me at ease. Loved working with him and his explanations about lighting techniques and good poses for me personally. He gave A+ direction. I cannot wait to come back to do more with him....just need to sort out my facial expressions!

Thank you so much x

My first shoot at Cove Studios - Sittingbourne. Phil was very welcoming and manages an excellent studio. An almost endless range of lighting (Flash & Constant), light modifiers and intriguing studio sets. Cove Studios Sittingbourne provides an excellent shooting location in North Kent and is highly recommended.

Attended a studio afternoon with Natalie Wood MUA, yesterday, and have to say this studio is a real find. Loads of super gear (lights, modifiers, triggers, backdrops, ring lights) props, wardrobe as well as bed, bath and shower (not tested!). Phil is a super chap, easy going but always helpful, if you need it. Very happy to recommend and expect to use, again.

Such a bloody pleasure!

Loved that I had the opportunity to shoot at Cove and meet Phil, truly what a lovely guy.

Cove has everything you need in one place and Phil knows where to locate it haha!

The space is great to shoot in, with lots of props, lighting and back drops to choose from. I really liked witnessing how helpful Phil was to Steve should he need any assistance, bodes so well!

I would absolutely shoot at Cove Studios again and would recommend to all to book in and use the space.

Thank you :)

Just finished shooting at Cove today. As always Phil is spot on with lighting ideas and always in earshot for assistance. Cove has a nice feel to the studio, more lights and modifiers than you will ever need, and the space to play with light. So many options and styles available to photographers, it really is a nice place to work in. You are always made to feel welcome, and you will want to go back and shoot again. Thanks Phil, see you soon.

Highly recommended, studio and owner.

I had my first shoot at Cove Studios yesterday and had a great day. Pre comms were great and Phil went above and beyond to help make the shoot happen. Steve hosted us on the day and was really helpful and we chatted about all things photography in between sets. The studio is large with lots of lighting and modifiers available to work with. There are so many props and other things to incorporate into your shoot you certainly won’t be uninspired. Recommended and no doubt will return in the future. Thanks Phil and Steve.

First time using Cove Studios today. Its a big studio, with plenty of backdrops and props, including chairs, a bed, bath, and working shower. Nice large toilet/changing area. Very friendly and helpful owners. Hope to use again. Highly recommended :)

I had another shoot at Cove Studios where Phil was great in helping move the lights around, providing advice and help if needed. He has a large selection of props and backdrops that can be used.

His new lights are great allowing changes in power from the trigger and also high speed to allow freezing of motion.

I would highly recommend Phil and Cove studios to any photographer.

Shot with Anna Sawyer as Parr of a tuition day at Cove. As always Phil the owner was on hand to explain lighting techniques and use of light. I came away with some really good images and learnt a bit more about light. Thank you Phil , look forward to the next one. Highly recommended .

I shot at Cove Studio at the end of January. The studio was warm, plenty of choice of backgrounds and Phil was really helpful.

Phil also has an absolute treasure trove of props.
