YORKSHIRE PHOTOGRAPHER | NEWBY HALL STUDIO
May 6, 2010Where does time go?! I moved into my new photography studio/office at Newby Hall over two months ago now and am only just posting these photos. So without further ado, here goes:
Newby Hall is so gorgeous, when I drive up the drive to work in the morning I pretend it’s my house:
My sign. The offices are in the old stables, which is a lovely courtyard to the side of the house. Suits me fine, I’m at home in stables!
There are some rare breed sheep, and the cutest lambs roaming in the section of the park:
The courtyard seen from my door:
And the view to the park:
So, the inside. It’s only a small space, but it’s all I need. I can use the grounds for portraits and am not intending to do any photography in the studio itself, apart from babies. It was a beauty spa before (The Treatment House – they are now upstairs and we share the unit. They are lovely, if you need any beauty treatments you should call them!).
There was lots of glitter on the walls – you can see it here under the lights. It was also covering the entire chimney breast. It may not look like much, but take it from me, it’s not easy stuff to remove!
The glitter is slowly disappearing:
And up goes my wallpaper, and grey paint:
Almost done! Just got the sample frames and canvasses to put up on the walls:
There are some of them:
And, of course, some sweets. There’s not that many any more ;-)
A couple of vintage cameras I’ve collected. This one was my grandmas, both still work:
So there you have it. I’m doing more portraits now, and love the grounds here. There are endless places for interesting and beautiful photographs. If you haven’t visited yet, you should!

What a gorgeous studio! I hope it proves to be a happy and productive work space for you and your new clients. I don’t know how you get any work done though, I would be on that chaise longue all day eating dolly mixtures!
