It will be great to "visit" your various studios. Say a few lines if you are doing portraits or products or still life ro advertising etc
I'm sure we are going to see some really impressive studios.

This was my studio from the end of April until early September
http://www.vimeo.com/1873453 (http://www.vimeo.com/1873453)
Inside was a MFDB Sinar/Alpa, an 8' x 10", an HD Video and a 40d for time lapse with a panning head and a laptop.
And guess what? - I was shooting Landscapes, some of which are here...

Murray, that video is SPECTACULAR!
How long of a period does the time laps represent? Just one day?

Hi,
Some shots from our workspace.
We also have an edit room which is not on the photos yet.
Mainly a Mac pro with dual monitor and an Epson scanner and 3800 so nothing special.
At the moment we are remodelling the studio again with new walls (scenes) will take some time and is an ongoing project.

Very quick pick on what we are working on for the past seven months. We are trying to create something very unique and one of a kind in Chicago for Fashion/Glamor photography. Project completion and studio opening is scheduled for end of February 2009. What you see on the picture is hair and make-up area, reception and waiting room. To the forefront left ( not shown ) is open launch-room area and computers/ printers room. The wall that you see to the right ( behind sofas ) is actually a 20 feet wide door to the studio. Studio will feature twelve open corner rooms made of two walls of 11' wide and 13' high with adjustable angles . Each room will represent completely different era of architecture and style. Additionally there will be huge old world fire-place and a old ancient Roman sauna. Hight of a studio is around 13' and the entire ceiling area will have overhead track lighting system. Studio is about 3500 sq/ft.
As soon as the project is completed I will post pics on LL and virtual tour on my website.

Thanks David.
Before I took up photography as a profession for years I use to develop high-end real estate commercial properties mostly in Eastern Europe. In todays market however I would think twice before I would invest this kind of money if it was not for my own use and with the assumption that this place would be my work studio till retirement.

That's how a studio should look to me: space, concrete and good ventillation..... Maybe there is some place left to put a nice Cambo UST camera stand Ray , maybe a few hundred.....

the quality can still be there.. despite the box we shoot in. now andre's bordello, I mean studio, is amazing..if I had to picture the playboy club in prague I think I would reference this... you go dude!

It does fit nicely in my place though it looks kind of out of place I shortened the cable this morning and took of 1 weight, now it can use the full height and moves more easily. It is only a H body plus lenses I will put on.
Yeah. PSS's place makes me drool but wait until we have moved to Bonaire
-
This is the place where I've done my last portraits. It's available 24/7 now so I'm thinking about hiring it permanently.
It needs a bit of work but the space and light are amazing.
-
you guys have huge areas. if I had something like that where I live... I would be spending a mint.
my biggest studio set up is something like this

Seeing this lot it puts the price of the cameras into sharp focus - such a small part of the package !

Samuel, this one definitely looks like a keeper!!!

Morgan, I like seeing these empty austere boxes were so much can spring from... and yours out in the middle of nowhere.
I hope you get people to come out from london.. would be nice to have a shoot there for a week!

c'mon Simon show us your big studio where you shoot all those nice cars
-
@Design freak,
Very nice space, love it.

Hi Henry
This is the only shot I have of my studio at the moment.
I have to say - some of these other studios are absolutely spectacular!

that looks amazing....looks nice and big with tons of natural light which could be easily blocked out....
-

I have a hope people may come from london - more on location shoots but knowing they can back into the studio if the weather goes wrong and that there is a lot of backup with lights and kit compared to just hiring a location
Hopefully tight finances/eco concerns might push people away from going abroad !
put the word out

For some reason I can't attached an image, I'll have to try later.

Well, it looks like I need to update my Safari because the attachment window doesn't show up. Luckily I use Firefox too. Here's a shot of my stage that illustrates some of the different lighting equipment I use. Have a look at my website to see more images (and a schematic) of the facility. Jim

It gets put to good use and we are extremely busy everyday, thanks. I agree. Really wouldn't mind a few extra sq meters though.

This is mine a while back when I put wooden floors in.
Looks s little different today.. Just more stuff softboxes,computers, etc...
Not very big by any means but is perfect for me... I shoot a lot outdoors also.

Typically I shoot on location which might be outdoors or at health clubs/gyms. When I need a studio I rent wherever it is most convenient geographically.

Ian what is attached to that grip arm to hold the ringflash on? I assume it has a 3/8 mount on the receiving end? Any help is appreciated I could use one. I dont know why profoto didnt use a 5/8 receiver for these heads....

Haha. Only in this forum would the first comment after that photo be about the mounting hardware of the ringflash ;-)
Some really impressive studios all.

Hey! Noramlly wouldnt be the case but just last week I trying to figure out a decent way to mount the ring when using my view cam, and every stud I had in my grip bag was 5/8!
-
Haha. Only in this forum would the first comment after that photo be about the mounting hardware of the ringflash ;-)
That is a funny!
But anyway, I don't have any recollection. My lighting assistant set it up and we have been doing it for a number of shoots since. I will send him an e-mail and see if he recalls.

I asked my lighting asst how he set it up and he says...
"I used a 3” Spud with a 3/8”/16 stud on it."

The Balcony above my studio on a recent shoot. I am hoping the studio off the Balcony will be mine soon as the tenant is thinking about giving it up, cross your fingers.

I did a quick stitch of a couple images of the shooting space.

I haven't finished putting the final touches on our studio, but the main room (25 x 30) is functional and you can get a basic idea of the room. There is an attached dressing room and a second floor studio with a full bathroom that is not yet finished yet.
The full office space is a little over 10k sq feet with a full kitchen and a 2800 sq ft mezzanine. The studio is located in the top left corner of the 3D model.

Question for you guys:
I remember most studios I have seen to either have matte black or neutral grey walls and floors. It seems the studios shown here are mostly painted white. Is there a reason to use white these days?

When I moved into my studio it was owned by a product photographer and he had it all painted Black.. Look like an Old cave.. Pretty depressing.
I painted the whole studio white and like it. Looks cleaner, You can bounce light if need off walls and ceilings. It is hard to cut back light, but I have lot's of Black Fabric and Foam core for that.
I am guessing car and product guys would prefer Black and Fashion/Portrait White...
Most Big Cyclos (Also used by the car shooters) are white ( some green now a days also for green/blue screening) for obvious reasons...
That would be my reasoning....

Black gets very depressing very fast, particularly if you are working in a smaller studio space.
Its generally easy enough to flag or curtain off reflections if needed and the lighter environment is a lot more inviting and pleasant to work in.
