London Photo & Film Studios for Hire

Infinity Cove & Photo Studios for Hire in London

Nine London studios with infinity coves, sound stages and daylight space. From £36 per hour for a two-person set-up to £240 per hour for a drive-in stage.

What an infinity cove is, and where to hire one in London

An infinity cove — also called a cyclorama or cyc wall — is a curved, seamless corner where the wall meets the floor without a visible edge. It gives you a horizon-free background, which is why it is the default choice for product, fashion, automotive and green-screen work. London has a limited number of these spaces, and they book up quickly.

SpaceCloud lists nine photo and film studios across London, from a £36-per-hour room for a two-person shoot to a £240-per-hour drive-in sound stage that takes a vehicle. Capacity runs from 6 to 100 people. Select your date and each listing shows whether it confirms instantly or needs the host to approve first.

Infinity cove and cyclorama studios

Four of the nine studios give you a coved or seamless background.

  • Drive-In Infinity Cove — Park Royal. £180 per hour, packages £900–£1,140.
    Up to 80 people. Wide enough to drive a vehicle onto the cove, which is what separates it from a standard cyc wall.

  • Infinity Cove Studio — Greenwich. £1,000 per package, up to 35 people.
    Package-only, so it suits a full day rather than a two-hour shoot.

  • Sound Stage — Park Royal. £240 per hour, packages £1,260–£1,500.
    Up to 70 people. The largest space on the list and the one to book for a crewed shoot.

  • Black Box Studio — King's Cross. £168 per hour, packages £840–£1,080.
    Up to 90 people. A blacked-out room rather than a white cove, for lighting you control completely.

If you only need a clean backdrop and not a full cove, Flexible Studio at Park Royal starts at £36 per hour for up to 6 people.


Where London's photo studios are

Park Royal in west London holds three of the nine — the drive-in cove, the sound stage and the flexible room. The listings put them ten minutes' walk from North Acton on the Central line, with Park Royal on the Piccadilly line about twenty minutes away. The rest are spread east and south.

  • Park Royal — Drive-In Infinity Cove, Sound Stage, Flexible Studio. Piccadilly line.

  • King's Cross — Black Box Studio. Six mainline and six Underground lines meet here, which matters when your crew comes from out of town.

  • Greenwich — Infinity Cove Studio. DLR and national rail.

  • ActonStudio A at Shutters Studios, £36 per hour for up to 15.

  • WhitechapelKimber Studio, £50 per hour for up to 25. Elizabeth line and District line.

How to book a photo studio in London

How far ahead should you book?

For an hourly room, one to two weeks is usually enough. There is only one drive-in cove and one sound stage in London on SpaceCloud, so treat those as several weeks out, and longer through campaign season and the run-up to Christmas.

Do you get an instant confirmation?

It depends on the listing. Two of the nine confirm instantly; the other seven go to the host for approval, which usually means a reply within a day rather than an immediate booking.

What is the cancellation policy?

It is set per studio, not by SpaceCloud, and the two patterns differ sharply. Klatch Studio's four spaces offer a 100% refund with seven days' notice, 50% with four to five days' notice, and no refund within three days. Infinity Cove Studio in Greenwich is non-refundable at every notice period. The other four use SpaceCloud's flexible policy. Always open the listing's refund terms before you pay.

What is included?

Each studio lists its own facilities and amenities, including lighting, changing areas, kitchen access and Wi-Fi. Listings typically include 12 to 20 features. Hire is dry hire unless the host states otherwise, so assume you bring your own kit and crew. Check the listing's house rules too: several restrict access to communal areas and cap waste disposal.


Also on SpaceCloud in London

Shooting in London usually means booking more than one kind of room. Movement and music video work often starts in a dance or rehearsal studio before it reaches a cove, sound recording goes to a music studio, and launches and press days tend to land in a gallery or a meeting room for the client review afterwards. All of it sits in the full London list.

FAQ

Q.What is an infinity cove?
An infinity cove, also called a cyclorama or cyc wall, is a curved corner where the wall meets the floor with no visible seam. Because there is no horizon line, the background falls away completely in camera. It is the standard set-up for product, fashion, automotive and green-screen work, and it saves the retouching time you would otherwise spend removing edges.
Q.Which London studios on SpaceCloud have an infinity cove?
Two are built around a cove: Drive-In Infinity Cove in Park Royal, which is wide enough to take a vehicle, and Infinity Cove Studio in Greenwich. Sound Stage in Park Royal and Black Box Studio in King's Cross give you a comparable seamless or blacked-out background at a larger scale.
Q.How much does it cost to hire a photo studio in London?
On SpaceCloud, London photo studios run from £36 per hour to £240 per hour. Smaller rooms such as Flexible Studio in Park Royal and Studio A in Acton start at £36. Cove and stage spaces cost more: Drive-In Infinity Cove is £180 per hour and Sound Stage is £240 per hour. Package rates for half and full days range from £360 to £1,500.
Q.Can I drive a car into a studio in London?
Yes. Drive-In Infinity Cove in Park Royal is built for it, with vehicle access straight onto the cove and room for up to 80 people. It is the only drive-in cove currently listed in London on SpaceCloud, so book it well ahead for automotive shoots.
Q.How big are the studios and how many people can they hold?
Capacity runs from 6 to 100. Flexible Studio in Park Royal suits a photographer and one subject. At the other end, Sirlute Studio on the Leamouth Peninsula takes 100 and Black Box Studio in King's Cross takes 90, so both work for crewed productions with talent, styling and clients on set.
Q.Which areas of London have the most photo studios?
Park Royal in west London has the highest concentration, with three studios including the drive-in cove and the sound stage, and it sits on the Piccadilly line. Beyond that the studios are spread out: King's Cross, Greenwich, Whitechapel, Acton, the Isle of Dogs and the Leamouth Peninsula each have one.
Q.Can I book a studio for just a few hours?
Most of them, yes. Six of the nine are priced by the hour with a minimum booking block, so a half-day or a two-hour shoot is straightforward. Infinity Cove Studio in Greenwich is package only, which makes it better suited to a full day than to a short session.
Q.How far in advance should I book?
For a standard hourly room, a week or two is usually enough. For the cove and stage spaces there is only one of each in London on SpaceCloud, so treat those as several weeks out, and longer around campaign season and the run-up to Christmas.For a standard hourly room, a week or two is usually enough.
