Had my first shoot from Rococo Farm today after asking my model to find a vintage location, not an easy task I know. The Farm owner (JenniJJ) could not have been more welcoming and knowledgeable of the location showing us around the grounds and the house and giving us free rain of the property.

The model and I shot for six hours really enjoying the stunning location and hospitality, the location offers natural light and it works its way around the property throughout the day giving the user the opportunity to shoot from all the rooms and corridors as the day goes on.

I certainly could not recommend a better studio location to shoot from as it is so unique and you will never find a better place to shoot from, its unique vision to deliver so many unique rooms where you can shoot vintage as we did today to lingerie and many other themes would never be out of place here.

I certainly will be returning to this wonderful location very soon. Thank you so much for an amazing day.

After looking for a location suitable for a vintage styled shoot we found Rococco Farm. What an absolute gem! The natural light is beautiful, it's full of gorgeous antique furniture and the building itself is so full of history and character. You could spend hours in each room. Jenni couldn't have been a more welcoming host and even provided me with my own room to change in. Can't wait to come back!

I had a really great shoot with JeniJJ at Rococo Farm. Jeni was great to work with and Rococo Farm is a wonderful location. I shall certainly be shooting here again!

This was a return visit to Rococo Farm after working with Jenni there last year. It's an amazing place dating from the 14th century, full of wonderfully atmospheric rooms, nooks and crannies massive fireplaces, staircases, old wooden floors, superb furniture - including a magnificent leather Chesterfield sofa - and beds; a photographers Aladdin's Cave of delight. Shown around by Jon to familiarise myself with the layout and who was always on hand to help out and provide tea or coffee.

I had a wonderful shoot there and would certainly use this venue again and of course very highly recommend it to all who require a period place to work in.

I spend a few hours at Rococo Farm with Leaf this afternoon. This is beautiful home studio, full of character and charm with amazing rooms to shot in. It’s ideal place for natural light and creating a very intensely deep and moody images.

From the outset Jenni makes you welcome and relaxed, free to used the wonderful backdrops in her home.

Rococo Farm is a must ... I feel I could be shooting here quite often.

Had the most wonderful first 2 shoots at Rococofarm

First of May I say jeni is absolutely lovely, was greeted and given a tour of the house first aswell as a cup of tea so off to a great start on arrival, jeni is also great to talk to and such a good host!

I was booked here twice in the same week and that gave me a good chance to see the house properly, the natural light in the upstairs bedroom was beautiful as well as the huge bed which you can't miss, this room is great to shoot in and is complimented by the mirror on the wall which really allows you to get creative with shots.

As for the other rooms jeni recently got a new sofa which is brilliant and a good feature to work with, this room also has a fire place which I found worked great with art nude.

Whilst most of the house is very old styled which works a treat, we also took advantage of the beautiful kitchen and bathroom which are very modern if you wanted to get a variety of very different shots

The house is full of love and a great place to shoot if you after something very different, would recommend 100%

The is my second shoot at Rococo Farm and, once again, Jennie was the perfect host. Jenni's house is fabulous – I've shot there now for two full days and there are so many shooting locations it is easy not to repeat any shots or styles you have used before. I use a mix of studios and locations for my work and Rococo Farm is my number one favourite place to work – Jenni, I'll back – and very soon!

I can highly recommend Rococo Farm to absolutely everyone as THE must shoot venue!

Well, my first visit to Rococo Farm and what a pleasent surprise. Rococo Farm is a beautiful house, the shooting locations within are stunning. The Study, gorgeous period fireplace, large Chesterfield sofa and decoration to match. Hallway and stairs ( part of the shooting location) lead to a large Bedroom with a beautiful Rococo style bed, perfect location for shooting natural light and ample space for flash if preferred.

Jenni, the studio owner looked after us with teas and coffee's and a guided tour which made us feel at home, Jenni then left us alone but was on-hand if needed.

Perfect location, perfect shoot. Highly recommended and keen to return

A very characterful location which must inspire. Guidance from Jenni and a mobile phone made the pastoral location painless. (Enter the road or village not the postcode on a Merc's sat-nav.) Good cups of tea. Made very welcome. Ample and easy parking. Very enjoyable, thank you.

Had my first shoot at rococo farm today, and it went amazing!

Firstly Jenni very kindly made us a drink and then showed us around and pointed out ideas and gave advice on lighting etc. She made sure we was warm and knew where she was if we needed her.

The location itself was absolutely beautiful, and had so many unique items. Theres plenty of choice and rooms to shoot in, the study and bedroom is absolutely beautiful and made some creative shots!

Overall it was a great shoot, Jenni was an amazing host and very easy to talk to - thankyou so much for having us! Highly recommend.

I am doing a series of shoots to help promote the photo competition, Cotient.com, and have been searching for interesting and reasonably priced venues in the South East which are few and far between. I was delighted when I happened upon Rococo Farm on PurplePort and even more delighted when I arrived yesterday – Jenni (who is also a model, JenniJJ on PP) has opened her old and beautiful farmhouse as a photographic venue and it works superbly as it has an eclectic mix of modern and old rooms and furnishings which combine to give any photographer a wonderful array of props and backdrops. Large windows mean any available light photographer armed with a couple of reflectors is going to be happy and equally, large shutters and heavy curtains means constant light or flash photographers are catered for too.

Jenni is extremely welcoming, personable and knowledgeable and can help plan your time there to your best advantage. Communication pre-shoot was spot–on and my entire full days shoot there was seamless.

I highly recommend Rococo Farm and, to back up that recommendation – I liked it so much I'm back there in 2 weeks!

Rococo Farm Studio is real hidden gem, a must go to place for that out of the norm style shoot, the property lends it hand to almost any style you wish to shoot with each room you visit being a story to tell.

Your hostess the beautiful Jenni is engaging warm and friendly and knows some of the best ways to shoot here so just ask.

Natural light is key here, but that said I used a couple of rotolights or simple use of reflectors or flashes would work just as well.

I fully expect to be shooting here again sometime soon

I spent a very enjoyable and productive day at Rococo Farm Studio, working with Jenni.

Rococo Farm is a superb location, offering various rooms to work from with a range of unique and interesting period features. A real gem and not too far for me to travel to. A great location for both natural light and flash photography.

Jenni is a fab host with excellent communication skills. Working with her and the studio was effortless. I really enjoyed my time here and there's plenty of scope to do lots of ideas.

Highly recommended.

Thank you Jenni :)

Rococo Farm is an interesting location to shoot in - a range of eclectic interior styles all contained within a lovely period farmhouse.

Some of the windows are shuttered which is great if you need full or partial blackout, depending on your lighting style.

There's lots of space for parking, lovely village setting and no doubt there's plenty of suitable locations nearby if you want to venture outside.

There may be spiders, but they're harmless [probably].

I'll be back!

I spent four hours at Rococo Farm last week on a very mini tour of the area!

I found the location OK as Jenni's directions were clear. There was plenty of parking too :)

I really enjoyed shooting at Rococo, there was nice soft light coming in the day I was there and I made use of the large windows in the place- and butterfly's!!

Oslo and Jenni were very welcoming and friendly. The fire Jenni lit was also very welcome! :D

Lots of character and angles to make use of. I am heading back in May for another short visit so see you again soon! Thank you :)

I shot here with the wonderful Artemis Fauna.

I was greeted by Jenni who was engaging and helpful. She walked me through the property providing advice on where best to gather natural light.

The farm did not disappoint providing some special locations and opportunities.

Highly recommended.

Thank you Jenni

Great Comms and excellent directions. Right, that's got the worst aspects out of the way. Everything gets even better once you get out of your car!!!

A lovely welcome from Jenni and Oslo. Jenni gives a quick tour on arrival and manages to deliver a super "taste" of the basic possibilities Rococo Farm offers. Perfect!

Thereafter a world of opportunities awaits you. The rooms each has its character within which it seems to offer a day's worth of "mini-sets" on its own. In most of them, the natural light is superb.

Most definitely recommended.

I had my first shoot at Rococo farm earlier this month and I very much hope it isn't my last. Jenni's pre shoot comms were excellent and kept me informed of the changing weather condition's due to the unexpected heavy snow fall over that weekend

As a host Jenni is great. Making coffee as soon as i arrived then showing me and my model around her amazing home studio. We set up and started shooting.The rooms we shot in are really very impressive, you cant go wrong, and we got some great images for ourselves.

All in all a most enjoyable and successful day, I cant recommend this place enough.

Thank you Jenni for making us feel so welcome

I was greeted by Jenni JJ with a really big smile...Jenni JJ offered me plenty of tea and was making sure I was ok the whole time...A really beautiful huge house with the most adorable dog ever (I wanted to take him with me haha)..photographers are always saying they want huge ceilings etc and this is exactly what there is with so many opportunities...you can get different types of light depending where you are in the house, so your images are all totally different...plenty of space for parking too...

Brilliant location, full of character and enough different spaces you could shoot for a week without exhausting the possibilities. Lovely light and plenty of room plus lots of interesting props and furniture to stretch your creativity.

The booking was easy to organise and the place is straightforward to find. Jenni is a great host, giving a friendly welcome, suggesting ways to use the house and then keeping out of the way unless you need anything. A really enjoyable time and a place I hope to return to. Definitely recommended.
