Studio 56 is a versatile photography and content studio in the heart of Buckhurst Hill, created for photographers, content creators, brands and small productions looking for a beautiful, flexible space to bring their ideas to life.

With a mixture of natural light, styled lifestyle areas, neutral backdrops, textured spaces and moveable furniture, the studio allows you to create a variety of completely different looks within one booking.

Whether you’re shooting portraits, creating brand content, photographing products or filming social content, the space is yours to make your own.

Studio 56 isn’t simply a blank photography studio.

The space has been designed with a mixture of tones, textures and shooting areas, allowing you to move from clean and minimal to relaxed and lifestyle-led without having to change location.

Use the existing sets as they are, move between different areas throughout your shoot, or adapt the space to suit your own creative direction.

It’s relaxed, welcoming and intentionally versatile — giving you room to create without feeling rushed.
