I had a studio day today at Art Asylum and it was just fantastic!!

The studio is full of everything you could need. An infinity wall and lighting in one room, and a complete New York style apartment/bedroom set up with the most beautiful natural light in the other room, complete with a free standing cast iron bath with gorgeous feet.

The dressing room is really spacious and has a mirror with lighting, lots of outfits, and shoes, shoes, and more shoes!!

Steve is the best host! He kept a flow of coffee which is an absolute winner for me, and with it being so warm, Steve made sure I was cool all day by making sure I had a nice cool fan blowing on me!

I had the best day shooting at the studio and I can’t wait to come back soon…..

Thank you Steve for being so awesome!

Very highly recommended from me

Steve allowed me the use of his studio for a shoot. The studio is well equipped, spacious, good lighting, and full of little treasures!

With full use of a bed, a dresser, a bath with coloured balls, couches, rugs, and a private dressing room, with plenty of outfits options should you not have enough of your own, or if yo just fancy shooting in something different!

Would definitely recommend Art Asylum Reloaded, dead cheap, and worth every penny!

I booked Steve's studio for a shoot with a new model and we were both delighted with the results. Steve is an excellent host and looked after us throughout the stay. The studio is well kitted out, versatile and has just the right amount of sets and props. There is beautiful light into the natural light end of the studio and the sets in there are particularly beautiful to shoot in. Will definitely be back soon.

I would definitely recommend this studio to any photographer or model. The studio is airy and spacious and has great natural lighting.

Steve is very welcoming, helpful and a really positive individual and I’m looking forward to using the studio again.

I had my first studio day at Art Asylum yesterday and loved every moment. I felt at ease straight away and was so well looked after! The studio is fun, quirky and it instantly gave me so many posing ideas.

The whole day I was made to feel like a star. I left with the biggest smile on my face. I'll definitely do another studio day at Art Asylum in the near future.

I highly recommend 👌

I had my first studio day at the wonderful Art Asylum on Saturday, hosted by Steve.

Pre- communications were excellent, the studio was pre-set up for the first photographers request and the studio was warm which is a bonus!

Steve was very lovely, a good laugh and kept the day flowing with ease. I loved my time at the studio and Steve has already said he would welcome me back which is lovely to hear!

100% would recommend :)

Interesting space nicely fitted out. Steve was attentive and helpful and the equipment does everything I wanted it to.

A good facility to return to, I expect I shall.

Another studio day at Art Asylum Reloaded, this time with the fabulous Mel Tongue. Got there a few minutes early so Steve made me a cuppa (top man!) while we discussed the first set. I'm normally self-sufficient when it comes to lighting, but my first set was complex (mirrors and multiple exposures) and Steve was on hand to help: moving lighting and a very large mirror and assisting with light positions etc, all the while making sure that Mel was OK for drinks etc. Can't recommend the place highly enough nor Steve who is always happy to help...and makes a great cuppa too :)

Another successful studio weekend last month at the Art Asylum Reloaded. As always Steve is a fab host, the studio is well equipped and even jaffas provided :)

It's a fab space for both studio lighting and natural light shooting

As always very highly recommended!

What a studio day - the owner really makes this place! The studio itself is beautifully raw with areas of exposed brick, piping, beams, and even a cyc wall. It's organised very well and has lots of unique features.

The owner of the studio is approachable, professional, welcoming, and supportive. He made sure I was fed, watered, and had a heater pointing at me all day! He is great at knowing when he's needed and dipping in and out of shoots as often as is appropriate.

I cannot wait to go back to this incredible space to shoot some more unique content! Thank you Art Asylum Reloaded, for hosting me!

I had another fanastic shoot at Art Asylum Reloaded on Thursday.

I made full use of the studio's massive white wall and also distressed brick walls on this visit. Althouth the studio also has a great natural light room, I mainly used studio lighting for this shoot.

The studio has a great selection of lights, backdrops and props. Steve, the owner, is a great host. He is very helpful but also able to sit back and just let a photographer do their own thing.

Very highly recommended.

I had a shoot booked on the Marissa Eva studio day, I shot for two hours, using only the natural light area. There is plenty of scope for boudoir and glamour in this area. It has a bed, a bath, and a corner fire place. The wooden floors, fake plants, and bare walls add atmosphere and texture to the images.

Equipment wise, I used battery powered lighting panels, which proved more the adequate, but could have move the studio lights in in to area if I had wanted.

The studio owner, Steve, is very helpful with lighting, but can also keep out of the way to leave the photographer to their own devices.

The studio has quite a good selection of props and clothes if required.

Art Asylum is my go to studio, as I live along the coast in Bournemouth, and I shall be returning in a month or so.

Marisa Eva

I’ve shot at the studio many times now. Steve the owner is very friendly and easy to communicate with. He’s always adding new props to the studio and keeps the space well maintained.

Steve is always very helpful and gives you privacy to get on with the shoot. Would recommend working at the studio.

Just had a great shoot at Art Asylum Reloaded studio at Marisa Eva's studio day. The studio is very well equipped with lights/modifiers as well as a fantastic natural light area.

There are plenty of props and sets and the wooden floors and brick walls make great backdrops.

Steve, the owner was very helpful setting everything up and the studio is very conveniently situated right in the heart of Weymouth a stones throw from the beach.

Definitely very highly recommended and I'm already planning another visit.

This was my second but definitely not last visit to the AA Studio! Steve was super welcoming, made me feel instantly comfortable, offered me many refreshments and made sure the studio was lovely and warm and that I was comfortable and happy throughout the shoot.

The studio is amazingly equipped and gave so many different options with lighting, backdrops and props, which produced outstanding images with photographer David Austerberry that I am so excited to see the final shots. I definitely will be returning soon!

Thanks again Steve😊

A great day at this wonderful studio. Steve is well organised and his studio has everything you require as a model and photographer available including the all important refreshments.

Steve, strikes the right balance in being around and attending to your needs during the day but also allowing you to focus on the shoot, which is ideal

I would highly recommend Steve and his super studio.

Another great shoot at Art Asylum Reloaded. It had been a while since I had done studio work and Steve was on hand to set things up, happy moving things around, and a making a damn good cuppa! The studio is well equipped and there is a fab changing room with lots and LOTS of props, clothing and shoes. Looking forward to my next shoot :)

I had a shoot with Steve at this fantastic studio

Art Asylum its great there you can pick and shoot all sort of style as there is so much you can shoot.

You can go for different backdrop at one part of the studio and the other side he made it look beautiful with a lovely bed and bath with a big mirror and lots of natural light it’s just perfect to work in. They also have a changing room with heels and props. Fantastic place to shoot.

Steve himself was lovely, really nice man, we got on really well. He also makes a good cuppa tea 😂 thank you for letting me shoot at your studio. See you again soon

Art asylum is a brilliant studio and I really recommend it to and model and photographer to shoot at. I had a shoot with a lovely photographer here and I was really impressed with all the sets avalible. We worked in the boudoir room and it was so ideal for our theme - which was a french boudoir/lifestyle theme - there are so many different possibilities from a really lovely bed, a bath and the room had a really cool New York apartment vibe to it. The studio was well equipped and comfortable with an huge changing room and a really great collection of clothes ect. I can’t recommend it enough and I hope I get the chance to model at the Art Asylum really soon as it’s perfect for the type of modelling I do.

I 100 percent recommend xx
