Photography Studio

Equipped with a range of professional studio equipment from tabletop still life work to full-length model photography, the studio includes a full blackout studio with flexible options for configuring the layout to suit the varied requirement of individual and taught study.  

Our Photography Studios are located in the East Garth — one of Norwich’s most valuable pieces of heritage — a former medieval Friary considered as one of the best surviving and most complete examples of its kind in the country.

Professional Mirrorless, DSLR and Medium format digital camera kits and a full range of professional studio lighting, camera supports and accessories are provided for use in the studio.

The Photography resources are situated in the renovated East Garth building.

The first floor features the Photography Studio (EG5/6), with a ‘still life area’ for smaller sets, and a ‘Fashion/Portraiture’ area for larger shoots.

The ground floor workshop (EG3) includes the Digital Darkroom for RAW file processing and digital image editing, with colour calibrated monitors, scanners, and inkjet printers for printing photographic prints for exhibition and portfolio. The Digital Darkroom has been upgraded this summer to include new Mac Minis and new EIZO self-calibrating colour accurate displays.

The ground floor print and finish space (EG2) has been upgraded with four new Mac Minis, four EIZO colour accurate self-calibrating displays, and large format print resource.

Both of the Photography Workshops and Digital Darkroom are open to students who have had the appropriate induction onto the areas.
