Chelsea Photo Studio featuring North Light and Cyc Wall
Peter's studio was the perfect fit for our portrait shoot. The front lounge is great for relaxing while the main space is large enough for wardrobe, working, editing, etc. I will be rebooking his space for any and all of my photoshoots! He also saved the day by lending...

Bright and clean studio perfect for portraits
Guillaume G.
Midtown Creative Loft w/ FREE Profoto Lighting, Artistic Backdrop Walls & Stylish Furniture
central, so overall a great studio at a decent rate.
I just wish they would allow less than 4-hour minimum. For shoots like headshots, that are pretty fast, it's hard to be competitive if you need to book 4 hours...
Chelsea J.
1220: Affordable Natural Light Cyc Wall Studio w/ FREE Lighting & Equipment (AC & Heater Available!)
As a beginner photographer, the space had what I needed to get accustomed to taking headshots in a studio setting. Easy to access and clear instructions! Will definitely rent the space again...
Blanche M.
Gear Ready Midtown Photo/Video Studio
very nice, clean, well equipped compact space. Perfect for headshots.
Alex was super responsive and helpful as was the building staff.
I would suggest just one thing , some flats or a curtain for a little privacy for those needing to change clothes during the shot...

booked this studio for a Christmas present for my mother, as she has always wanted professional headshots to commemorate her now-20 year long career in aviation.

Mike P.
1000: Affordable Natural Light Cyc Wall Studio w/ FREE Lighting & Equipment (AC & Heater Available!)
peasy.
The space is smaller than the photos make it look (typical real-estate photos eh?) so booking this spot for a full length portrait is probably not ideal.
When you book, be prepared for the list of things you cannot do, and to be reminded of that any time...
Nondie S.
Sunlit Office Space in Chelsea 2-5
Loved this location! We were doing headshots and a teambuilding activity. The full length mirror came in clutch while doing the headshots. Great space, host was responsive and had everything in the room when we arrived...

I will be using this space again in the future. It is ideal for intimate portraits.
