Updated pictures of our fantastic studio spaces!

We thought that it was about time that we updated the images of the Loft and Attic studio's.

The Loft - features 1000sq foot of space and is our main photography studio. It includes:


  • Full size (9ft) professional background rolls with infinity curve (we normally stock a minimum of 5 alternative coloured backgrounds in stock including the industry standard white, gery and black)

  • 5 brightly coloured material panels - specifically designed to provide an alternative background
  • Original wrought iron spiral staircase leading to a mezzanine floor space
  • Period wraught iron fireplace
  • Professional 300m Interfit lighting with 3 xsoft box, beauty dish, extra large wafer softbox, umberella and various other modifiers
  • The above also has a private dressing room, kitchen and bathroom


The Attic - is situated in the same building as 'The Loft' and also includes 1000sq foot of space. This room allows photographers to move away from a typical background and can be used to create settings to add a level of creativity to an image. It includes:

  • A lounge setting with some fantastic vintage furniture
  • Half size proessional background rolls with infinity curve
  • Period fireplace
  • Fantastic natural light from several full size windows

What we do best ......

Over the last few weeks we have really seen an increase in the number of portrait shoots that we are doing for families and models in our Birmingham based studio spaces.

We are fortunate not to have to advertise and we enjoy a stream of new clients that come to us through recommendation and through our professional reputation.
Here are some examples of some of the great shots we have been privileged to have taken:




Photography Courses and Workshops

Since we first introduced our photography workshops some 2 years ago - we have been asked more and more to formalise these into courses and seminars to help new and aspiring photographers to make the most of their hobby and passion.

Unlike other some other studios we have always prided ourselves on providing photographers with one on one time with models to ensure they not only get excellent value for money but they learn to interact with a model rather than shooting over another photographers shoulder.

This is how www.photography-coursesuk.com was born

We are proud to unveil this improved approach to photography coaching and training.

Our sister site above will keep both our existing and new clients in touch with sessions running from our Birmingham based studios that will help photographers develop their skills and network with others who share the same passion. Courses include:
  • Introduction to your DSLR
  • Introduction to working in a photography studio
  • Photographing in a studio and on location
  • Photoshop beginners, intermediate and advanced
If you or someone you know may be interested in attending one of many up and coming sessions - drop us a line, give us a call or pop in for a chat to learn more at:

Please Note: We are not advertising as 'qualified' photographers and do not hold a formal qualification in photography- what we do have is years of experience working with models, corporate clients, families and with photographers - we find experience is often the best teacher!

MTV in the house

Imagine our joy last month when we were contacted out of the blue by a production company for MTV - they had looked around the Birmingam and Midlands area for a studio they could base themsleves in to shoot for an upcoming series.

We were more than delighted to let them work out of 'the loft' and 'the attic' studios at TipTop Towers. They filmed several sequences for the show and even Steve made a guest appearance doing what he does best as a photographer in front of the camera!

The show is due to be aired in January 2011 - so watch this space!
