Moth Studios - Oxford Street - Sydney - BIG TICK

I've used this studio once so far and have 2 other shoots planned there in July... and many more in the future... I like it so much I'm thinking of a monthly subscription... :-)

Moth Studios

This studio is an absolute dream... It has all the equipment, lighting, softboxes, umbrellas, snoots, grids and other good stuff that you could possibly imagine... two good sized studios with backdrops...

The studio owner Michael supplied mineral water, M&Ms (otherwise known as model food), even did a coffee run and was generally helpful but inconspicuous throughout the shoot...

The studio has a sliding scale of rates, so if you're a student, or you're shooting for non-commercial purposes, then it's very reasonable... Check out the current rates on their website...

I'd have no hesitation in recommending it, but have already agreed with Michael that I'll get priority over all your bookings... :-)
Cheers, John

John,

Thanx for posting this. Their rates seem to be very attractive.

As you may have noticed, we've recently had a request for a portraiture workshop, and this may well be a potential venue for these sorts of events.

Looks great, and just down the road from me too...

I missed this, is there still room?

Plenty of room: thus far, it's still only a request. Probably a couple of months away, and nothing, as yet, really started.

I hadn't noticed that portaiture workshop either... More than willing to help arrange that... The studio would be a perfect venue and if we were using the larger of the 2 studios, then we could probably have 8 photographers and a couple of models fairly comfortably... I can supply models & MUA for next to nothing as well... Let me know if you want a hand setting it up... I don't have the theory to run it (I just do it), but more than willing to help...
Cheers, John
