I have shot at Cove Studios many times now and would thoroughly recommend it. Phil is a great 'assistant' if required and the facilities and equipment available is exceptional. If you need anything, just ask Phil and I'm sure he will find it somewhere in the studio. There are so many options, you will be shooting there more than once.

Thanks Phil and see you again soon - Cliff

Cannot recommend Cove studios enough.

Thanks Phil

Having worked with Phil before, we organised a last minute shoot on Sunday. As always, Phil was very accommodating and we had a spectacular shoot with amazingly produced work. Phil is lovely and we seem to always have lovely conversations - I have learned a lot from him in the two shoots we have done.

Very talented man that produces nothing but excellent work, couldn't recommend him enough.

A week ago I had my first shoot from the Cove Studios with photographers Mike at focussed on Photography and Roger Nolan.

Cove is a very versatile, clean and warm studio aldo the owner was very welcoming and helpful :)

Highly recommended and I'm looking forward to returning back soon :)

Had a test shoot with Phil yesterday. He had good communication beforehand, Phil's a very friendly guy, with great ideas. With the conversation constantly flowing, the shoot went by fairly quickly, but got many different shots in that time. He gave brilliant advice and direction, and made the shoot very relaxed and enjoyable! He has a wide range of accessories and outfits, which came in handy. I would recommend Phil.

I had the opportunity to tag along with a local camera club today to shoot at Cove Studios. I’ve been keen to check the place out since it is about a whole 2 miles from me and I wasn’t disappointed. Phil was on hand to help overcome my Fuji camera technical issues without hindering all the big boys' cameras, and did a superb job setting up the lighting and taking care of us.

It’s a great studio with plenty of equipment, props and individual areas to shoot in. I am sure when my wallet recovers from the shoots I have done lately I’ll be looking to shoot there again.

If you are looking for a studio to use in the Medway/Swale area I can highly recommend Cove Studios and Phil.

Had an absolutely brilliant shoot with Phil at his awesome studio in Sittingbourne. Was very easy to arrange and communicate with beforehand, friendly and easy to work with and brilliant results which were just what I'm looking for. Look forward to working with again!! Thanks

Booked studio lighting tuition with Phil recently, a great session and learning a lot.

Cove is a great studio, glad it was recommended to me by another photographer.

Will be returning to Cove on a regular basis from now on.

I booked Phil's studio last Monday. Lots of space, plenty of shooting options and very well equipped. Plus Phil was very friendly and helpful - nothing was too much trouble.

As a newbie, I must admit I wasn't sure what to expect from the shoot, but I need not have worried, as Phil was an absolute gent and made us feel welcome from the outset.

He had a good understanding of what looked good and was very meticulous with getting the right lighting and pose. He was great at directing and had an impressive array of jewellery and props on hand. (another Ebay junkie, like myself and quite a few of us on here I suspect : )

I enjoyed the shoot very much, got some nice shots and learned a few useful tips. Thanks Phil
