What an unexpected gem!

I booked the Rawpics Studio on the recommendation of my friend and model Amber Farndon, and i am so very pleased that I went with her recommendation.

The studio itself is very well equipped with lighting, props and a nice sound system, there is masses of space, a models changing room, back drops etc. Rod the owner made us feel very welcome and was available for help and advice on lighting setups, what was really good was that he was helping without interfering, he struck a really good balance and he makes a great cuppa tea, I was really happy with the price I felt it offered great value for money, I came away with some really nice work, I will definitely be booking the studio again, I think the fact that Rod is a working photographer means that he really understands how photographers think and can advise on how to achieve the vision, I found him a very warm person and enjoyed his company.

Great studio

It was very warm on a cold day, coffee was on offer on arrival

Easy to find a great area to shoot, backdrop lighting and the offer of help

We did several lighting changes and new sets nothing too much trouble

Will hope to use again, recommended

I hosted a model day here the other weekend. What a fab studio, tonnes of space, massive white wall cove and some lovely ready made sets and backdrops.

Rod was a fantastic host, making sure the studio was warm and always making sure I was ok, nothing was too much to ask of Rod, always at hand and available to help with lightning and changes.

I am hoping to be going back to the studio very soon

Highly recommended by me

Thanks again for all your help Rod.

I Had my first visit to Rawpics Studio today. I was supprised by the amount of space available and a good number of back drops available. Rod was very helpful with the lighting and general advice to help me capture the looks I was after. All in all a good visit and will look to return soon. I would recommend Rod and Rawpics Studio

I had such a great studio day at Rawpics! The precommunication was excellent; Rod created a fantastic poster for the event and kept me updated throughout. He offered assistance with transport and even suggested breakfast. He remained flexible and adjusted to my plans.

On the shoot day, Rod met me near the studio and kindly helped with my heavy bag, showing consideration. Inside, he offered a delicious croissant and tea, showcasing remarkable kindness and friendliness. Rod gave me a tour of his spacious studio, featuring a fabulous background, vintage props, fantastic lighting, and a gorgeous cyclorama. The studio is well-equipped, warm, and meticulously maintained, with a hook for hanging items and a spacious garden.

The changing room is very convenient, equipped with a great mirror and everything a model may need. Furthermore, Rod, always ready to help, is not only helpful but also an interesting and friendly person, leading to great conversations.

Thank you so much for having me in your studio! It was a fantastic day, and I was thrilled to meet you and work in your amazing studio. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you again. Thank you!

The studio was recommend by a model I had booked to work with while visiting the area.

Its was a great choice with a large infinity curve and some cool backdrops too.

Rob was on hand to help with changing sets and moving the big light, when need.

If I am in the area again I would certain us the studio again.

Thanks again Rob.

I had a great experience working with RAWPICS studio in Somerset. Rod was professional, friendly, and he made me feel comfortable from the moment we met.

Rob and his lovely wife took me out for dinner at a gorgeous local pub. The food was amazing and it was great to get to know them both before my studio day on the Saturday.

Rod picked me up on Saturday morning and made sure I had breakfast and coffee before taking me to the studio to have a look round. Rods studio is amazing! The land around it is beautiful especially because loads of adorable mushrooms have popped up all over the place creating a magical Alice in wonderland feel. It’s great to have the option to use the studio or use the gardens for some lovely natural light shots.

Thank you for giving me the chance to work at Rawpics studio. I had so much fun and I can't wait to return for my duo shoot with Retro Rob!!

Many thanks,

Sophia ❤️❤️

Had a super shoot with KatePop at a Rawpics Studio day. The location is great, and the studio itself is filled with amazing backdrops, props and the studio also has a fabulous garden area.

Rob was excellent at helping out with resolving some technical issues and getting my mirrorless camera to work with the remote trigger correctly - well getting “live view” to work.

Really happy with the results from my shoot there, and already planning another shoot there.

I’d recommend Rawpics Studio without hesitation.

Had a super shoot with KatePop at Rawpics Studio.

Superb location, many props, unique backdrops.

I arrived early and was greeted by Rod, the owner, with a nice cup of tea.

Rod showed me what and where I could shoot, inside and out. I shall have to return when it is not so hot for the outdoors areas.

Rod was on hand to move items and set lighting.

I highly recommend Rawpics Studio.

KatePop

I had the most fantastic studio day at Rawpics studio. The host Rod is so helpful and very kind and generous. I have worked at Rawpics studio a number of times before, and I really love the atmosphere, and facilities of the studio. Rod is so helpful to photographers who have not got much experience in the studio and will help set up the lights to create the most flattering light possible. I love going to the studio, I’m very grateful that it is so close to my own home. I will for sure set another studio date up. I cannot recommend this studio enough.

I had a great shoot at RawPics at Kate Pop's studio day. Rod was the perfect host, as always. He has great expertise in setting up lights and this time he honoured me by sharing some special effects he has been developing.

I recommend RawPics most highly to any photographer or model.

Thanks for a great shoot.

Another great shoot at Rod's Rawpics studio. Rod always gives good advice on lighting and the use of props as well as being a very welcoming host for both photographers and models. Highly recommended.

I was very excited to have the opportunity to work at rawpics studio and Rod was a very warm and welcoming host, his studio is very nice and I know if I worked there all week it still would not have given up all it's possibilities. I can't wait to go back at some point. I highly recommend it to all creatives thinking of working there. Thank you for letting me use your fabulous facilities

This is a beautiful place to work. Rod has made a space that is neat, well-organised, flexible and very easy to use. It has great facilities - tea, coffee, etc and is warm and welcoming. The dressing room for models is spacious and warm. Rod is also very helpful, has great suggestions and is on hand for help with lighting, props etc. Highly recommended and a space I would want to use again if I were down west.

It was my first time working at RawPics Studio and I was throughly impressed. Rod was friendly and welcoming and nothing was to much trouble for him.

The studio was warm and their is a really lovely dressing room for models with some props for models to use.

The studio itself is huge and and their are lots of different exciting back drops as well as props to use and the garden is amazing to shoot in.

I would certainly recommend working at RawPics. Rod is very friendly and helpful it all makes for a fun day in the studio.

Many thanks Rod

First time shooting at RawPics and wow! Super impressed! Great set-up, Rod was super welcoming and accommodating on our duo group shoot day.

I will definitely be coming back here again, can't wait!!

Jessika Blaze

I can't recommend Rod and his studio enough.

He was such a star throughout, checking up on us, making sure we were happy and comfortable, and just going above and beyond in general.

The studio is amazing - it's absolutely huge and surprisingly very warm! It has lots of interesting backdrops and props which makes shooting so much fun. Not to mention the absolutely gorgeous garden which I'm so keen to shoot in when it warms up outside!!

Definitely definitely would come here again :)

My third visit to the wonderful Rawpics Studio, this time for a photoshoot with Sinopa Rin.

Rod was his usual welcoming self and, as previously, he was very helpful with the lighting set ups. The studio is very spacious with an excellent choice of backdrops and sets. I used several different sets, and each time Rod was on hand to set up the lighting to produce the different style of image that I was after.

Thank you Rod. I will certainly be visiting again. Highly recommended.

Yesterday was my first visit to Rawpics and wow, what a day it was! Communication was quick and painless, the studio is very easy to find and is equipped with everything you could hope for - plus a beautiful garden! Rod kept everyone entertained with his professionalism and delightful demeanour, made endless cups of tea and even a vase of daffodils with my name on them on the dressing table! The day flew by and I think it's safe to say everyone was delighted with the images they created. I'd happily recommend this studio to others and look forward to returning in the summer!
