A very warm welcome from Neil on a chilly day: I've been to the premises before, but there have been a few changes since, all for the good (except, maybe, the loss of a battered and imperfect candelabra...)
I loved having separate black and white backgrounds (plus a corner with a black-and-white floor!), and the variety of lights available, all in good working order.
Neil doesn't make a bad cuppa, either.
Four hours passed easily and pleasantly, and the model and I were able to get on with shooting a fine variety of images.
Probably ought to mention good comms in advance, and a reference up before I'd got round to logging onto Purpleport.
Definitely a studio with a lot of possibilities. I plan to be back!

My first shoot at R6 under the helm of Neil. Neil couldnt be more helpful with backdrop setups and light set up even before i arrived. Always on call , nothing was any trouble whatsoever, such a relaxed studio to be creative in.
If you want a space you can really try some ideas in this studio has the room to do it!
Many thanks Neil for making my two hours there today very enjoyable!

My first visit and was made very welcome by Neil. He could not have been more helpful in getting the kit I needed set up and then left us to it.

Wow what an amazing studio day I had at R6 with Neil hosting it making my experience shooting there to be the best one.
I was very happy when Neil contacted me about organising a studio day at his studio in Kettering. I had a pleasure to shoot with Neil before so I couldn’t miss a chance to work with him at his studio,not miss a chance yourself.
Neil gave a studio a new life and put so many amazing sets up there, all photographers were spoilt for choice shooting with me there. It’s a very well-equipped,pleasantly warm, cozy and honestly one of the best studios I have ever been to.
Neil made everything possible to make it feel like it’s your home when you go there, coffee and refreshments were served throughout the whole shoot and I like a model space there, it even has a wizard robe and sweets were my favourites.
Neil does care about model’s well-being and always asked me if everything okay and if I need anything, so that’s kind of a treatment you want to get back to. Neil was helping us out all day, setting up lights and obviously all photographers like it very much do they didn’t want to leave Neil’s studio at all.
Many thanks Neil, I am looking forward to work with you again and be back to your studio.
Highly recommended,100%

I had a fantastic shoot with the wonderful Neil yesterday. His communication is great and he had a schedule already set which was great as we could get straight to shooting.
Neil is very warm and friendly and easy to work with and the studio he runs is amazing and full of props. Neil had many of outfit choices already which was great. I hope to work with Neil again in the future.

It was great to be back at this studio space again and see all the great changes that have been made! The space is super versatile with good natural light and various backdrops, sets and props. The model changing room has has a major upgrade which was lovely to see. Neil was a great host, really easy to work with and I was well looked after throughout the day. Would happily come back here again and I look forward to seeing how this space continues to grow :)

I had my first shoot at R6 Studio today having been to the studio many times over the years under previous management. Neil was a great host and really helpful. He has put a lot of work into the studio creating new shooting opportunities and invested in a lot of new lighting equipment. I hope to return as soon as my availability allows.

Wow what an amazing studio!! Absolute beauty of a hidden gem!
I had a shoot today at the studio and upon arrival, Neil was lovely and welcoming and both him and photographer Mark showed me around prior to my shoot. So many options/backdrops for different themes and numerous props including swings!.
The studio also has a lot of natural light which I loved.
Loved the model changing rooms / dressing area too, very spacious and accommodating.
I look forward to shooting in this studio again in the future. I can honestly say it’s the most fun/ varied studio I’ve stepped foot in and it’s so spacious too. Thanks for having me today.

I've known Neil for quite a while so it was amazing seeing him set up this studio. I've visited before but this was my first studio day at R6. Neils pre comms were amazing and he was helpful carrying my suitcase in, storing food in the fridge and offering drinks throughout. The day sold out and I am planning to return in 2025.
The studio is the biggest I've visited so far and has great natural light with many artificial options too. There is a big variety of sets that Neil is constantly developing including swings, seats, backdrops - most things you can think of.
The changing rooms were great with a dressing gown, mirror, spaces to hang clothing.
Overall, R6 is a versatile space with an amazing owner and I highly recommend it to all.

Had my first shoot here at R6 on a studio day organised by Alyssa.
Comms leading up to the shoot were great, clear and concise, payment details were sent straight away and easy to follow. Booking the shoot was easy and quick to do.
Upon arrival at the studio directions were provided on the comms and was very easy to find, I was greeted with a friendly smile and handshake and was made to feel welcomed from the moment I stepped through the door.
The studio is a great size, with natural light from both the skylights and windows on one wall, the studio is clean and tidy with a huge selection of backdrops, props etc to use, Neil is on hand to help setup / move things around as well as providing tea coffee and cold drinks when required, nice little dressing room for the models to get changed in.
There is a section which has provision for set up of 2 swings which make for great shots, plenty of chairs, flowers, bed, futon, amongst other props with are all available for use, the main section of the studio is spacious and not cramped in, great for getting those wide angled shots.
Great studio and will certainly be returning for another shoot whether its a pre planned studio day or if I wish to hire the studio for my own ideas.
100% recommend booking and visiting the studio.

I've been to this studio before as Studio 58 and Openspace (mk2) and I'm so happy it is continuing. Good to be back! I had a great shoot here. Good sets give a variety of shooting spaces, natural light and help when needed. Studio is well equipped with all the lighting equipment you could want. Highly recommended and I will continue to visit

The versatile space that R6 studio occupies has changed hands a couple of times over the last few years, but happily continues to be in good hands with Neil.
At the start of the session I discussed what my aims were, and he was quick to get it and help set up exactly what I needed. After a coffee for me and a drink for the model he kept out of our way but was always readily available to assist with anything where needed, and willing to offer constructive advice if asked.
I've always enjoyed shooting here in the past, and I'm sure will continue to do so in the future.

I had a studio day for the first time at R6 Photograhy studio and it was amazing!!
Neil was fantastic with the pre-communication and on the day he welcomed me at the studio, showed me around and in the changing room there was a printed paper with all the information for the day. I was super impressed by the studio. It is a great space which offers lots of possibility, different areas to shoot and lots of props to use.
I got the chance to shoot with Neil for 2 hours in the morning and it was great fun. He had in mind the concept he wanted to achieve, working on portraiture using flowers, some ballet and some fashion. I loved the mix of styles.
While I was shooting with the other photographers, Neil was in the front office and always available to help with lights or anything that was needed. Offered snacks and drinks. Super nice!
I would love to be back at the studio. I highly reccomend this wonderful space to any creatives!!
Thank you for having me :)

I held a studio day for the first time at R6 studio and it was wonderful! Neil is a great studio owner, very attentive to the model and photographers. He takes model safety and comfort very seriously which is always lovely when visiting a studio! The studio itself is beautiful, open and spacious with plenty of interesting props and so many spaces and opportunity to create beautiful images!
The models changing rooms is clean and tidy in fact the facilities in general are very clean and tidy and there is even a lovely little outside space to shoot fashion and portraits too!
A wonderful studio with a lot of potential I thoroughly enjoyed holding my studio day there! Wholeheartedly recommended!

I booked a slot to shoot with Lottie21 at R6 on 15th June 22024.
The process of booking was really easy and Neil was immensely welcoming when I arrived. he showed me around the studio areas and sorted lighting and a trigger without any fuss.
The space is excellent, lighting worked really well and there a variety of props and chairs for photographers to use.
I heartily recommend Neil and R6. Thanks Neil and see you soon.

Had my first shoot in R6 studio and it certainly won’t be the last.
A fabulous space with high ceilings and possibility for dark studio set up and natural light shots, large enough that you can be as creative as possible and move props/furniture to your liking.
Lots of sets, furniture and props to choose from but the real star of the show is the two wonderful swings that Neil has added to his collection, definitely a new experience for me and a fantastic shot to add to your portfolio!
Large dressing area and was made to feel really welcome by Neil as he offered drinks and snacks throughout the shoot!
I know Neil has lots of ideas and I can’t wait to see what more is added in the future and hopefully return myself! Would highly recommend
