Capture the perfect shot at photo studios in New York City

New York City is one of the most vibrant and exciting cities in the world for photographers of all genres, from lifestyle to fashion photography. It’s no surprise the city offers creatives ample choice when it comes to production locations like photo studios. Offering a controlled environment with a variety of lighting options and backgrounds, typical studios can accommodate a wide range of shoots. Loft studios are similar, though they tend to feature large windows, exposed brick walls, and skylights, which provide ample lighting for shoots. Whether you're searching for that classic exposed brick aesthetic or want to take advantage of furnished photo studios in NYC, there are an abundance of studio spaces to explore.

Set up shop at photo studios in NYC with kitchens

For professional photo shoots, it’s often best to rent a venue that offers the full package: a stunning background, plenty of room to move around, and all the amenities you need. In NYC, a large number of these spaces include studios that come with kitchens — perfect for food-related productions. Not to mention, if you and your crew are planning long shoots lasting 12-plus hours, a kitchen will come in handy, allowing you to cook your own meals and save money on eating out. When researching rental studio spaces with a kitchen, look for venues that allow you to shoot from multiple angles. And depending on your shoot, you may want a studio to have ample counter space for food prep, cabinets for storage, and any other relevant features.

Discover amazing exposed brick photo studios in NYC

Create one-of-a-kind images by exploring exposed brick wall aesthetics and different genres of photography. With a vibrant brick wall serving as a backdrop, you can capture warm and inviting photos with rustic appeal, as well as vibrant, high-contrast shots with an edgy spin. Exposed bricks offer a blank canvas for setting up unique scenes and producing stunning visuals. It's no surprise then that many photo studios in NYC are outfitted with these walls as part of their decor. Whether shooting romantic engagements, family portraits, or fashion shoots, an exposed brick backdrop adds texture, color, and contrast to seamlessly complement any lighting style. Aside from aesthetics, this design element is a great way to add texture and depth to a room, making a space feel more open and inviting. This could be worthwhile if you intend to spend long hours in the photo studio.

Perfect Showroom in the heart of the Fashion District right next to the Empire State Building
