I visited the studio for the first time to shoot with Melanie Bond for a couple of hours. The studio is compact but contains a great variety of textures, props and lighting equipment. James made me feel very welcome and Mel and I had a productive and enjoyable couple of hours shooting and catching-up since our previous shoot together in September. Recommended.

It was my first shoot at the studio which was recommended by Melanie Bond and when I arrived I was made very welcomed by James. He gave me a tour and explained what he had and what was available to use.

The studio is well equipped with lighting and a variety of rooms with book shelves, bathroom and a brick wall.

I enjoyed my time and I recommend the stupio.

I've had 3 days at Skylark studio now over the last few months. 2 of them with back to back shoots. James has always been welcoming, hospitable and been very helpful where photographers or myself have needed assistance. James has created various different sets in his studio and made the most of the space. There are loads of props to shoot with as well - I've had 5 shoots there now and all of them have been completely different :)

I've been enjoying my time at Skylark studio and will be planning to return this year throughout the year as its ideal only 50 mins from me. The studio is also very easy to find with clear signage out the front which is also a bonus.

Thanks for having me James - I've had some great shoots at Skylark and I will be back :) x

I attended a Christmas themed group shoot yesterday at Skylark studio which proved to be a most enjoyable experience. The owner, James, had gone to great lengths to produce a festive ambience with Xmas trees and various decorations in place. Despite having to deal with a number of problems including late cancellations James was able to ensure that everyone who took part, both models and photographers, had a fun time. Highly recommended!🎅🎅🎅

I was back at Skylark Studio recently for a group shoot and had a great time! James went to so much effort to organise the day and planned it well so that all photographers got plenty of time working with each model in different sets and outfits

The studio is versatile, as well as having it's own stand out sets such as the HUGE bathtub!

Recommend from me :)

I had the pleasure of working with James @ his studio for a group shoot back in December. The communication & organisation was next to none & he was very accommodating! I had so much fun with three other models in the ‘big bath’ & would defiantly recommend hun & his studio! I look forward to future shoots!

This was my first visit to Skylark Studio, and I had a satisfactory shoot. I only used the Library Room on this occasion, but I can definitely see the potential for a Bathroom themed shoot in the huge bathroom here!

James the owner was very accommodating, and made sure we settled in, and had everything we needed before he left us to it.

Recommended.

I recently shot with James at some local ruins. The photos are amazing. And James was very laid back and friendly. Would definitely work with him again.

I shot for 4 hours at Skylark and it was a good experience. James is a top lad who was very helpful. I particularly liked the shower set and the brick effect wall that had a good texture and was made out of a shallow brick or ceramic type material which was very clever. It was nice to see a proper book case stocked full of books that I would have been happy to read, If I had not overrun with the shoot :)

My first photo session at Skylark Studio, Bromsgrove, went better than expected.

In regard images produced, number, how well it went: photographer, model liked it.

On arrival, saw, met the studio owner, showed us a few rooms, made coffee.

Tara Bull and I worked in Library Corner, Feature Bathroom, Natural Light Room.

Knew there were others by way of the floor plan but went with these, they'worked'

Using the furnishings of each area, items found there, if some put to other uses.

In relation to the camera settings used, Colour, B &W and Partial Colour: Red.

From experience I know, if a studio photo session, is 'flowing' its good, it was.

May be back later in the year, with another model, now I know where it is.

I shot with James for the second time recently, this time at a bluebell wood near the studio.

We shot together with MacyG for an 'unconventional woods outfit' portion of the shoot, which went off without a hitch despite the difficulty with heels in the woods!

We then worked 1-1 for 2 more outfits, shooting amoung the beautiful bluebells and trees etc. We were so lucky with the weather and it was a really lovely shoot.

James is so laid back and easy to work with and chat to throughout a shoot, he's so friendly and professional and I would not hesitate to recommend him. :)

I had a shoot with James in the bluebell woods yesterday. He gave me clear instructions of how to get there and told me the three looks we were going for so i could come prepared.

Once we began shooting, he let me take the lead but also gave me instruction when needed.

He was very chatty and made me feel at ease throughout the 3 hours.

Just had a look at the photos and don’t know how i’m going to pick! Love them all.

Would highly recommend

I got to work at Skylark studios the Friday just gone and was greeted with a smile by the studio owner and a offer of tea/coffee - and thats always a good indication how how the rest of the time spent at the studio would be.

The space was a perfect temperature and James would ask if i was comfortable/warm enough throughout my time there.

There was a dressing area with a mirror and enough space to change and add/remove make up, which is really useful and good to have privacy. Theres a toilet that was clean and tidy (and also a great shooting space with a big bath).

Hes made great use of the space and has really got it to a full potential, with countless props to use, many different backdrops available and the epic library looking room, which ive never seen in a studio before - so its got originality too.

Thanks for having me there James, it was a blast!

Thanks, KatyB

I had a fun outdoor shoot with James. He knew a patch of woodland with bluebells and he drove me there from the station. Communications before the shoot were good. He was relaxed and professional during the shoot.

Thoroughly recommended.

Second time iv used this studio, I;ll absolutely be using it again! The bathroom set is worth booking the studio for on its own but theres so many other options for shooting, it's well worth a visit!

James is lovely and so welcoming, nothing is too much trouble, it makes shooting there a much nicer experience.

Theres not that many studios around, this one stands out, book asap!

First chance to work at Skylark Studio. James's communications was spot on. Easy to book and on the day James was very obliging on what was planned for the day. The studio itself has been well thought out. The different scenario's are excellent. The bathroom area which is unique from any of the studios that I have worked in in the past. It is decorated to a very high standard and has scope for many ideas with the model. The library area is again well thought out and with book shelves packed with real books which is again a first that I've come across. The whole area is well thought considering the space available. The lighting equipment allows for a number of different moods and style. Have come away with a number of outstanding images. Great value for money and certainly worth the journey up. Will certainly be looking to arrange future shoots with Skylark in the future. Highly recommended. Thank you.

I had my first studio day at Skylark Studio and I was really impressed.

The studio is very easy to find, clean, well equipped and has lots of props.

There are some great sets and I really enjoyed working here.

I especially liked the brick wall and the book area as backdrops they looked so good!

I shot with James the owner of the studio and it was awesome, he is a very lovely photographer. Chatty, welcoming, friendly and professional. I really enjoyed our shoot and looking forward to seeing the images we created.

I really enjoyed my day here and I hope I can visit again in the future!

Thank you James

Highly Recommended :-)

James was very prompt and clear about arranging the shoot after contacting me via a casting call. James studio is coming along nicely and would definitely recommend to photographers looking to hire for shoots. As a photographer James was very chatty and made me feel at ease, and was very helpful, we produced some lovely images, and I look forward to the final results. Would Recommend James to models. Thank you

I am very happy with my studio day at @Skylark Studio ,everything was amazing. James's pre-communication was on spot and he organised everything really great. James was very patient with rescheduling the studio day due to rail strikes and a new date was a perfect choice as we were fully booked. The studio itself is really great, well equipped and has a lot of probs and things to use for the shoot. It was warm enough time to shoot there and James made sure I felt good and had everything necessary for a successful studio day there, so it worked out well 😊 James is friendly and chatty photographer, and I am happy we had a chance to shoot together as well.

Thanks James, looking forward to working with you again

Highly recommended, 100%
