I cannot stay away!

I had to come back and shoot at this lovely place and I brought Roxanne1 for a four hour shoot.

The light was brilliant and Dan as before, was invisible until he was needed , when he was his usual pleasant, helpful self.

We had a terrific, enjoyable shoot.

I can recommend The Loft to all photographers, whether you shoot a classic studio style or available light.

Thank you Dan again. It is a long way for me to travel, but it was well worth it.

This was my first time shooting with Jpea at The Loft and I was very impressed. The place is amazing with its wood floors, beautiful natural lighting. It has lots of cool areas to shoot in. There was a nice changing area which had a great assortment of clothing, jewellery and shoes. Dan was very helpful and we had a great selection of music supplied during our shoot which really set the mood. He makes a good cuppa too! Would definitely love to shoot there again, if you haven't yet book it you won't be disappointed.

Thanks again 😊

I have not shot at the Loft before but had a four hour shoot there with Tillie today.

Booking was totally organised and Dan was very helpful getting me parked and helping carrying my clutter.

There is lovely light, and areas from grotty to soft and romantic.

Dan is invisible when you don't need him but utterly helpful when you do.

I enjoyed shooting there and I am already looking at the next booking.

It is the "different" sort of studio that I want and need.

Highly recommended.

Since moving to Suffolk and The Loft Studio being under an hour from me, it has become my new favourite place to shoot and second home :)

I contacted Dan when I was moving to the area and we arranged to meet for an introduction when I was fully settled in.

Upon meeting Dan and seeing the studio, I knew instantly it would be somewhere I would love to spend my time. I was welcomed in with a brew with my partner Leon Lift and since then a wonderful friendship has blossomed, not only between me and Dan but also my other half and he have a lovely bromance too :D

The studio is so current and contemporary in it's styling with exposed brickwork, beautiful windows allowing natural light to pour in. Natural wooden floors, high ceilings which allow for high backdrops to hang from and the ability to create dynamic shapes, dance and movement shots is not restricted at all which is a rarity.

Dan is always super friendly, and on hand to help where needed and offering teas/coffees and snacks throughout the days.

I am so happy that it's now one of my local studios and I am very excited to keep shooting there.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED,

Tillie xx

I hired the studio for the first time on Friday. I had been before for tuition workshops and group shoots. So was lucky to already know what the studio is like and have met Dan the owner.The studio is very well equipped and has some fantastic natural light. Dan was a great host and on hand to assist where needed. I highly recommend the studio

Had my second shoot from the loft Studio today With the amazing Tillie model, This space is really special to me as I find it so awe-inspiring.

The space has so much to offer for photographers and Dan the owner is the perfect host as well, never over powering with his presence but able to offer incredible tips if asked.

Really love shooting from this space and have received a very warm welcome when I am here.

As a photographer you really need to shoot from here. Highly recommend Dan and the Studio. Thank you once again and really looking forward to seeing you again soon.

Attended a great workshop at the studio, and as opposed to other times I've been on Group meets, it really felt like a thriving workplace this time.

The Loft is fair size with a wide array of lighting options, and large enough to have more than one set-up at a time. Add into the mix the wooden floor, the natural light, variety of backdrops, the options available are many.

What you get by booking at The Loft is a very professional studio, but one that feels more homely than a workplace. Thanks Dan for such a great venue :)

Had a great shoot at the Loft Studio with Charley Atwell. It's an excellent large space with lots of interesting features, a good selection of props and large windows. Very adaptable - we managed to get about 7 very different sets done in the 4hrs. Excellent lighting equipment too.

Dan was very helpful and friendly. He let us get on, but was on hand with help and advice with lighting if and when required. Plenty of refreshments too!

I would definitely recommend the Loft.

Thanks Dan.

I had my first (but not my last) shoot today at the loft with the lovely Ayla. Dan was very frendy and welcoming. He was very helpful and knowledgeable in setting up all of the different light settings we wanted. Ayla was also knowledgeable and capable with lighting and settings. The natural light from the window was very good and just had to be used by me.

A very nice experience indeed.

I will certainly be using this studio again - it was well worth the 3 hours drive to get there.

Very highly recommended

Thank you Dan and Ayla

Gary 🙂

It was my first shoot here today, The space is such an inspiring place to be and very well equipped with many various modifiers and lights.

Dan the studio owner had a really warm welcome for me and made me feel very welcome from the start even bothering to take time out of his busy schedule setting up lights, backdrops and organising sets for me.

I was overwhelmed at the end of the shoot looking through the images we had captured here today as they were the best ever images I have ever taken.

I certainly would highly recommend this facility as one of the best ever studio's I have visited. Please if you have not used this studio you need to as you will not be disappointed.

First visit to the loft and very pleasantly surprised. Found Dan to be very friendly helpful and accommodating. As stated the loft has a range of lights and soft boxes for all needs and the studio is blessed with natural light from two sides. Will be back again soon .

I have been to The Loft Studio twice for their group shoots. The evening's are very well planned and organised. Dan is extremely friendly and and explains everything very well. The studio is very well equipped I'm looking forward to going back. And highly recommend the studio.

I had a shoot at The Loft on a particularly snowy and freezing day. Dan was great; he picked me up from the station as well as dropped my back off, put on loads of little heaters, and of course taunted me (the vegetarian) with cold chicken wings. He also kept me in good company whilst I was waiting for makeup and in-between sets.

The studio space itself is stunning; a gorgeous conversion, with attention paid to detail and to maximising its potential. There are an endless amount of sets you could get through, and never get bored. It's also extremely well equipped, and even boasts a platform perfect for shooting from above (say goodbye to rickety/ potentially murderous ladders above models), which was my personal favourite feature as, for once, I wasn't filled with the fear of death by falling photographer.

Overall an excellent studio with a lovely and helpful manager, well worth shooting at.

Hope work at The Loft again soon!

First time at The Loft. Great place.

Dan was so pleasant, helpful, welcoming. Equipment great, also great natural light. Ayla and I got some great images.

Thanks Dan we will be back.

Dan runs an extremely well equipped, spacious studio. He also proved extremely welcoming and helpful. Despite arriving 40 odd minutes before I was due, he invited me in, showed me around and chatted a bit to break the ice. Would certainly recommend and moreover, book future shoots with the loft.

I finally got to shoot at The Loft Studio and I loved it!!!

It's a stunning studio, nice space to work in and also nice and toastie so you won't freeze while you work. The owner is a great laugh and a great host. The props their are awesome and really do look great in the pictures especially the big mirror and the window with the natural light.

The Loft is a fab studio for any type of shoot as its well equipped and plenty of room to move around in.

If you haven't worked here yet I 100% recommend you do it's awesome, thanks for a lovely day I look forward to coming back.

Charley Atwell

Shot at the Loft studio today, what a stunning studio shocked I never shot here before as so local to me and I will Most definitely be recommending this to people I shoot with.

Dan was brilliant and also so talented loved his work that I saw around the studio!

Very fun day, professional, everything you need equipment wise, clean, warm, helpful and got a coffee as soon as I walked through the door so already a winner from that moment on!

Thanks Again Charley

My second shoot at The Loft and it was just as brilliant as the first shoot there. This time focusing more on different styles but still making full use of the variety this wonderful studio provides. My model and I were warmly greeted by Ayla and Dan who made sure that we had everything we required before leaving us alone to shoot but always being available to help if needed. A great studio which is well equipped and offers a great variety of backgrounds and some beautiful natural light as well. Another shoot booked there and it is somewhere I will certainly return to regularly. Highly recommended

I had my first shoot at The Loft Studio with Ayla Rose. Having seen the photos that Dan has on here I knew what to expect, but the studio was even better than I thought.

I was working to a brief so my lighting requirements were quite specific. Dan was at hand to get everything sorted out with the minimum of fuss,aided by Ayla. Shooting time was maximised, and Dan was around to supply mugs of tea whilst we were working.

The Loft is a superb working environment, run by one of the friendliest and most approachable photographers I've had the good fortune to meet. I highly recommend this studio and hope to return there again soon.
