Had a shoot at the X Factory today with Misuzu as a model. What a fantastic venue - the light is wonderful and the opportunities for shots are boundless.

It is early days and the facilities are basic but the studio is all the better for that. We only managed to use a small part of the space so a return visit is essential

Don't wear you best suit and polished shoes. The Factory is about grime and grunge, the perfect place to juxtapose beauty and gritty reality.

I spent four hours there today doing a joint shoot with Anthony Woods and Misuzu. It was great fun, and though we exploited a fraction of the possibilities of the location, we came away with an excellent selection of pictures. So much left to do...

As Arnie said - I'll be back!

I have done a few Shoot at The X Factory so far, and I absolutely love working there! There are loads of fantastic areas and rooms to work in, as well as outdoors, and lots of props and equipment to play around with too!

I would definitely recommend anybody to do a Shoot at The X Factory, and I really look forward to doing some more Shoots there too!

Shot at The X Factory today with the beautiful model Misuzu. I could shoot here all day. It is a disused factory on multiple floors, there is always interesting light - from directional through smaller windows on lower floors through to a more open light from skylights on the upper floor. There is plenty of scope for grungy images - ideal for an abandoned or post apocalyptic look. Can't wait to shoot here again

First shoot at X Factory today

Such an amazing space, could have easily spent the entire day there and still not worked in every area.

This is a huge space with tonnes of natural light, interesting props and a really edgy, raw feel

My only criticism would be that I couldn’t find a long enough extension lead to use my studio lighting in areas that didn’t get much light

Definitely coming back

Had my first shoot at The X Factory today for the whole afternoon, all I can say is that this place is HUGE in every sense of the word. It's a great space, with lots of interesting features and awesome natural light.

Had my first shoot here with Kevin and it was great. The location is fantastic and he can definitely take some amazing pictures! Highly recommend

Misuzu

I had a lovely shoot with Kevin at The X Factory and then another shoot with a different photographer two days later.

It is a wonderful space with lots of character and plenty of interesting places to shoot. The natural light in there is wonderful and both times I've worked there we have got lovely images.

I'm looking forward to seeing the studio develop and change over time and I'm looking forward to see what other people create in there too!

This place is excellent to work in. So much natural light choices and lots of space to get creative in. Sets the benchmark as far as urbex studios go. Highly recommend it.
