Booked Studio A at Kindred Cameras Photo Studio
5.0
The studio is very well equipped. I brought my light kit but you can hire theirs too if you need. There is also the option to black out the space with curtains. Great facilities too - kitchen, toilet, and makeup/styling space. Jade, one of the owners, is really welcoming and helpful too!
