Club / Group Workshop Events:

The studio is home to the Club Albert & Victoria with regular weekly club group nights and specialist workshops based around a maximum of 8 photographers to ensure a more relaxed atmosphere. Lesser experienced photographers can feel at ease trying new ideas or simply learning more about lighting, settings etc, less stressful for the model plus maximizes 1-2-1 time for the photographers.
