Yesterday Andrew and I worked together for the second time at his studio. The shoot absolutely flew by and I think we could have gone for another 4 hours! I love his studio, it’s so warm and welcoming. Love the dressing room. Amazing selection of lights, back drops and props. Feels like a proper professional studio. Andrew makes a lovely cuppa too! I would happily work with him again and again!

I done my first shoot with Andrew at Saracen House last week and i can be certain we got some amazing images that i cant wait to see.

Andrew is very professional and a great laugh and he definitely knows a lot about lighting.

The studio was warm and set out nicely with lots of ideas to work with and i would definetly recommend. Thanks again.

Had another studio great shoot at Saracen House Studio. Honestly if I'm shooting inside this is the only place I want to go! As someone whose quite geeky I love that I can pay online and get a reminder the day before a shoot.

Upon the arrival the studio was nice and warm, with Andrew there to greet you. Throughout my time he was always there to provide support, which proved invaluable as I was testing a new camera and there was something I hadn't even thought about but he was quick to get me sorted.

I absolutely adore this studio, its clean, spacious and has a tonne of amazing lighting and modifiers, oh and did I mention he has an Alexa!!

Look forward to my next encounter! Merry Christmas Saracen House Studio!! See you in 2019!

Well it's been a while since I visited the amazing Saracen House, so long in fact that I found myself in a completely new Saracen! Yes this was my first visit back to the new studio!...

But as always I felt immediately at home! The photographers who attend the studio events are always respectful and talented, which I think says a lot about the studio standards. Andrew is absolutely awesome! Looks after you with lots of snacks and drinks, keeps you warm and provides a wonderful space to work in!

The studio is awesome, well laid out, lots of space to work in and relax in, the changing room is warm, spacious and extremely well lit with plenty of extras should you need them!... Full length mirror, iron, hangers to mention a few!...

The facilities are awesome, the studio has lots of space and room, so many different coloured backdrops and interesting backgrounds. Plenty of props, a beautiful boudoir set up with optional natural light and of course awesome lighting!...

What Andrew doesn't know about lighting isn't worth knowing... his knowledge and teaching is fabulous, he teaches really well making it simple to understand but is also happy to let everyone get on with their own thing.

It's a fabulous studio, well worth the trip and you can always expect to get high end results!

Highly recommended for models and photographers!...

And I can't wait to visit again!

Thanks again Andrew!

It has been a while since I last shot at Saracen House Studio (too Long). First time at the new premises. This studio has everything you could want, sets, backdrops, full range of Broncolor lighting and modifiers and of course Andrew. He is an amazing host, always helpful, nothing is ever too much trouble. Makes great tea and coffee as well. I will be back soon.

Highly recommended.

I got to meet the wonderful Andrew for a cuppa (and a very brief shoot) and I was left with a lasting impression.

What a well rounded great guy!! and he makes a crackin latte! haha.

Seriously super chat, could of stayed for hours...and i'm sure I will in the future. We only got to do a few shots testing out the 'beast lights' that the beautiful studio Andrew owns had and they were gorgeous! Heaven knows what we could create within an actual session.

Really feel I made a friend :)

Thank you for your time ♥

Highly recommend,

I've shot at Saracen House a few times now with a few different photographers and I must say it's one of my favourite places to shoot!

A lovely, clean and spacious studio with a very nice dressing room. Well equipped with lighting and a great variety of sets and backdrops to use.

Andrew is a great host, so polite and very helpful. He's always there to offer any assistance when needed and if you ever want a nice cup of tea! :)

Highly recommended!

Lovely clean and well Equipped studio. Brilliant sets and choice of backdrops. Andrew is welcoming and super helpful. Really enjoyed my shoot and would recommend.

Another super shoot at this super studio. As usual Andrew was truly collaborative in helping me set up the 2 lighting arrangements I had planned. The results I achieved with Ayla (brilliant model) were better than I could have hoped for due in no small part to the extensive selection and quality of the studio's lighting equipment. It is also the smartest, cleanest and best equipped studio I have ever used.

I attended a model day to shoot with Jessica Emily. I planned three different sets and sent details to Andrew with lighting set ups. As usual the studio was very clean and well presented and Andrew was welcoming, helpful and courteous at all times.

The lighting and equipment is top quality and I cant think of anything he has not got in terms of continuous, flash, modifiers and natural light.

This is a top line studio which offers great service and opportunities to all levels of photographer and model. I certainly have become a confident and a much better studio photographer than I ever thought I could be due in no small part to Andrew's help and encouragement.

The best studio I go to.

As well as having a sold out studio day at this wonderful studio, I also got to work with the epic Andrew!

All the awesome!

I had a blast working in this lovely location, kitted out with all the mod cons - Andrew blew me away with his lighting set ups, using the huge collection of lighting equipment & props, to create some of my favourite images so far!

I can't recommend this amazing photographer and studio enough, what an absolutely incredible day :)

I think this is the third time I have had the chance to shoot at the new Saracen House Studio. And I can honestly say this is one of the best studios I shoot at, I always look forward to heading over there.

There is a always a warm welcome from Andrew (and coffee!), and nothing is too much trouble. The studio is a great space, and Andrew has so much gear to make use of, if I had the time I'd shoot there every week!

Thanks again!

I attended Saracen House for the first time yesterday to attend a workshop run by Chris Conway and I met Andrew as well for the first time, a really lovely guy. His studio is very well laid out and greatly equipped with everything you could need for a great shoot. (We'll have to swap studios Andrew) :)

The studio was spotlessly clean and newly decorated and a really comfortable environment to attend a workshop in.

Some people might think it odd that one studio owner in the area is leaving another studio a reference, well It is not odd at all, I have visited a number of studios over the years, some good and some bad, for workshops and shoots and if a studio is good then, why not shout about it. Good local competition is healthy as it attracts a larger customer base for the area and Andrews facility is really great and he himself is actually a really nice guy, who takes pride in what he does. I was made to feel very welcome and I would have no hesitation in recommending Saracen House or Andrew for that matter. I enjoyed my time there and it was lovely to meet you at long last Andrew.

I had the pleasure of modelling a workshop hosted by Chris Conway at Saracen house and we couldnt have picked a better place! Andrew, the studio owner, had everything covered even down to the finest of details like a well prepped coffee station and ordered a pre made buffet which was amazing by the way!! The studio was the perfect place to host the events and everyone was happy. Andrew was around all day on hand if we needed anything. He is also a barrel of laughs, you can't help but love his humour and it's one of the reasons i would go back time and time again.

Thanks for everything :-)

I use Andrew’s studio regularly for my portfolio and client based Boudoir work and it’s a fantastic space for all genres and the equipment available is second to none, really the best there is!

But the defining feature of the studio is Andrew himself! Nothing is too much for him... he’s incredibly helpful, always happy to share his knowledge (which is extensive) and makes a great cup of tea!

If you’re looking for a space to shoot or are looking for some training, I can’t recommend Andrew and Saracen House enough!

He’s a fantastic photographer too!!

I attended a studio workshop with Andrew G today. I highly recommend this workshop, from Andrews knowledge sharing skills to the workshop content and the Saracen House Studio itself. The day was a mix of theory and practical photography; enough theory to get the mind working without blowing it up! The quality of the presentations were great, crisp looking & detailed.

The equipment is superb, the model was awesome and the day whizzed by and I left with a collection of images that reflected the quality of the workshop.

My only negative being, the next workshop is nearly a month away!!
