I organised a studio day at Silkwood studio as part of my recent mini northern tour. It's the largest studio I've ever been in. You definitely won't be disappointed with the facilities. Nathaniel (Studio owner) was incredibly friendly and caring throughout the day, making sure everything went smoothly. Overall, I have nothing to fault at all. I had a lovely time shooting at Silkwood and would definitely be back for my next northern tour. Highly recommend.

What a brilliant studio! Easy to find, bags of parking, acres of floor-space, half a dozen 'stages' to work on, lights, stands, props, coffee - and an owner who is a delight to work with.

This was my first visit; it will not be my last. What a gem of a studio :-)

My first shoot at silkwood studio andI was impressed as soon as I entered. There was loads of space for shooting with different scenes and props plentiful to work with. Nathaniel was welcoming and was very helpful for the shoot. I will definitely be recommending this studio and will be back in future.

On arrival, I was met within 10 seconds of pressing the studio door bell with a friendly hand shake, a quick and detailed tour of this huge studio including its metal walled tunnel. I felt comfortable immediately. Hospitality is very good and the studio staff is very professional. The studio is stuck with unimaginable amount of useful and creative props. Highly recommended.

This was my first shoot at Silkwood Studio even though it has been around for a few years, it has recently got a new owner.

I was really impressed with the space and sets. Nathaniel has few ideas in that he wants to do with the studio in the future which I hope he will manage to do.

So excellent studio will defo be back in the future, highly recommended by me.

I had my first shoot at Silkwood a few days ago and it was a memorable experience.

I like to shoot with natural light and it was as if designed to get the images I wanted.

The studio is so helpful as the model was delayed by the wonders of the modern rail system but we were allowed to tag on the missed hour at the end of our time. This was very kind and understanding...typical of the total experience.

Booking and reminders and payment were totally professional.

There are so many areas and sets to shoot and props etc.

Although I didn't use any lights, there are enough to satisfy the most demanding light freak.

Altogether a great experience and I can recommend Silkwood without any reservations.

Many thanks....and we got some great images.

I shot here for the first time. A great studio space and sets and Nathaniel was so helpful and always on hand to help set things up.

My first shoot at this fantastic studio with the wonderful Lily Delarosa.

Nathaniel, the studio owner, was the perfect host and worked hard throughout to ensure the sets were all perfect. A wonderful space with a variety of equipment available or natural light if you prefer.

Thank you Nathaniel for your hospitality, patience and hard work; I thoroughly enjoyed my time in your studio!

I had a great shoot at Silkwood. The studio has everything needed, with great sets and equipment and a changing room with plenty of space. The studio owner is friendly, on hand to help where needed and welcoming. I’d have no hesitation in recommending again to future photographers.

Silkwood is an outstanding studio which offers plenty of space, lighting equipment, backdrops, natural light. You name it, it has it! The studio owner is very professional and always so welcoming. Nothing is ever an issue. The studio is very well located, offers parking and easily accessible via public transport. Every photographer and model I’ve worked with has had nothing but great things to say about the studio and the owner. If you get the chance to shoot at Silkwood, take it!

I shot my first session with Ballerina Erica Mulkern at Silkwood studios today and was very impressed not just with the space, but the level of professional lighting equipment, excellent choice of backdrops and props, and of course Nathan.

Nathan was on hand to welcome me into the building, offered tea and coffee, and helped set up the lights and backdrops perfectly for my dance shoot with Erica.

This is not just a good quality studio with very high ceilings and lots of useful space, it's also great value compared to many similar spaces, and I won't hesitate to book more shoots there next year.

Thanks Nathan.

I hired Silkwood for a shoot. A great studio, spacious, but still warm in spite of the cold outside. A good choice of work areas and a very friendly and helpful team. I am sure I will be back.

I ADORED shooting in this space. The dressing room is glorious, the space is a wonderful size and has flexible areas, it was warm enough and I was offered a cup of tea more than once. Hooray for THAT. Yes. Hooray...

Oh, and we had 6music playing, which added to my ability to lark about and have fun with the shooty shoot.

Another marvellous shoot at Silkwood yesterday. Although not present whilst taking a well earned break the work Nathaniel is putting in is very visible. The studio was clean well laid out and all the equipment was available and well organised.

A superb space which is just getting better and better on each visit.

Highly recommend using Silkwood Studio if you can, exceptional space.

Fabulous location, space and possible solutions for most of your photography and more! Mr Nathanial warmly welcomed all interested in his Studio yesterday evening and shows he is a serious contender on the studio world!... There is a fat chance of finding anything like this in London? so stay up north for quality creatives and fun!...Nathanial, demonstrated he's in it for the long run and I wish him loads of success for our future!... Use it it's great! Pete😎

Went to the relaunch and what a great turnout! I met photographers and MADE NEW FRIENDS! I enjoyed the spacious and diverse setups available. I had the most friendliest welcome and felt so welcome! I can not wait to book in some time here at this fantastic venue!

I love this studio! It has endless possibilities to create amazing images, it’s a massive location with a laidback friendly atmosphere. The owner Nathaniel is such a lovely person, so easy to get along with, helpful and respectful. He also asked for feedback, for room for improvement which as a model I can’t see any room to improve an already awesome place! Today was my first full day event and it went really well, myself and the photographers had a fantastic time. Nathaniel even provided me with my lunch which was much appreciated.

Highest recommendation from me. Thanks so much. 😊

I had another excellent shoot at Silkwood this afternoon.

Nathanial is very easy to get along with, and every ready to help if needed. He has started adding a few new features to the studio since taking over, and has several more in the pipeline.

This really is a great natural light studio, and is also well equipped with strobe heads and a good selection of modifiers.

I can thoroughly recommend it to models and photographers alike.

Rich Davis

First shoot at Silkwood and in the two hours felt as though barely used the space on offer, it is that huge of a location.

Nathaniel likes a good chat and is keen to get people in so I highly recommend this studio. The layout is massive, the areas to shoot varied and there's plenty of parking in an area very easy to find straight from the motorway.

Looking forward to shooting there again.
