Over 35 years, I have been in just about every studio facility in New York City. This is by far the best, in terms of price, location and accessibility. Sidewalk loading right into garage and huge freight elevator a big plus. Management is hands on, knowledgeable and never denies my requests. My talent loves the spacious holding areas with many surprising amenities. As far as I am concerned, this is the only game in town. Highly recommended - 5 star studio, never disappoints.

Really great studio. Clean, huge spaces and all the equipment you need is there at hand. The studio manager and assistant go out their way to make sure you have everything you need for you shoot. Highly recommend!

THE BEST STUDIO/DEAL YOU CAN GET IN TOWN! Hudson Yards Loft is an incredible space equipped with all things you could possibly need for any kind of studio shoot. James and Rico are super available and willing to help with anything you need. The space is beautiful, clean and very chic. What I personally like is that as a photographer you are dealing with a million things for a shoot, so shooting here takes a lot of stress out of your plate because is one stop shopping. I'm not shooting anywhere else, give it a try and you'll see how amazing it is.

One of the best photographers studios in NYC. I rented many studios over the years and this one comes to #1.

This place is the best! We had a shoot in Loft 4 and it was clean, beautiful, spacious, and had absolutely everything we needed. James and his team are incredibly responsive, accommodating and kind and made everyone feel taken care of and at home. James is super knowledgable and personable and recomment which space would best accommodate our needs. I could tell he was invested in everything going smoothly for us. Truth be told, we came here after another studio fell through, and everyone at our shoot kept saying that it was a fateful stroke of luck for us that the other place didn't work out, as we truly ended up discovering one of the best studios in NYC, run by one of the best teams. I cannot recommend them enough and can't wait to shoot here again!
