I had the pleasure of using Studio 52 for a cake smash shoot. The studio was warm (it was freezing outside!) and had a good set of lights and modifiers to choose from - all worked flawless and consistently which is always a relief!

Jon was very helpful and friendly host. He made sure that everything was available and the studio was warm enough for us all!

I booked Studio 52 for an afternoons shooting a couple of week back, and can honestly say it was great. I am always on the look out for interesting or unusual shoot locations and Studio 52 has plenty of these, from old sheds/boat houses to bridges to rivers (note the plural!) there is something for everyone.

Jon was extremely welcoming and helpful and made sure we had anything we needed for the shoot. I can throughly recommend Studio 52 to anyone looking for a studio or location for a shoot, I am sure I will be back.

I had a last minute shoot with Helen Diaz at Studio 52. We had an excellent shoot using natural light. The gardens at Studio 52 provide lots of excellent opportunities for location style shots. Most of the shoot was outside, but we did also shoot in the studio using natural light.

Jonathan was a very welcoming host.

I desperately needed a studio whilst I was on tour and at very short notice - and Studio 52 came to the rescue!

Jons emails and confirmation were super fast and professional and it was booked! Its always a little unnerving working at studios or venues you haven't visited prior, but from the offset Jon was extremely welcoming, kind and hospitable. The studio is in a large converted garage space within the grounds of his lovely home, with plenty of backdrops, lighting and scope to shoot in.

You can have the shutters up to make the most of the natural light or down to use the studio lights. There is also furniture and other props to use during your time here.

The garden attached was a wonderful space to use! I especially loved shooting against the flowers in full bloom and the statues were gorgeous.

The bathroom facilities are inside the main house and parking was a breeze. My sat Nav sent me half a mile up the road so you may want to get there a little earlier :)

I would absolutely love to return on a future trip! Jon is a lovely fun character and I wish the studio lots of success for the future, Highly recommended to all! Helen x

I had a great shoot at Studio 52 with Alenka Va. The studio itself is well equipped with plenty of lighting, backdrops, lighting modifiers etc. There are some old film cameras that can be used for props too.

We then shot down by the river on the decking and finally in the middle garden section.

This is a great studio setup that I can thoroughly recommend to all creatives.

First time shooting at Studio 52 and what a great location it is with its combination of indoor studio and outdoor locations backing onto the River Thames.Jon is a very cordial host and responded promptly to all requests for assistance.

The indoor studio has multiple backdrop possibilities and ample lighting with Canon triggers. The garden outside has a number of secluded sites and extends right up to the river. On the water's edge there is a lovely seating area and, joy of joys, a neat little bridge over a dock inlet.

Great location and facilities, good host - recommended. (I'm very envious)
