STUDIO
Our downstairs photography studio is designed for small portrait, fashion and product shoots – but can be used for anything if you can make it work!
Comes equipped with a glam station located in a corner cove, along with a private, curtained-off changing area and a sound system.
Upstairs features a fully stocked bar, free tea and coffee and an additional breakout seating area.
We also have a small kitchen prep area for food/drink shoots.

FAQs
How can i book?
Please get in touch at bookings@themetrohoxton.com, specifying that you want to hire the studio space and with dates. We are flexible, friendly, and will help in any way we can to make your shoot work for you.
CAN I BRING IN MY OWN KIT?
Yes. The kit listed on this page comes free with the space regardless – you can choose to use it or not and to add to it with your own equipment.
Other equipment can be rented from us for a further fee – please ask to see a full kit rate card if you don’t see what you need on our list.
We can also help organise cross hires from our network of rental houses.
ARE THERE ANY OTHER CHARGES?
Electricity, tea and coffee are included in the hire fee. Any other drinks from the bar are charged per item.
Excessive use of colorama roll and consumables will be charged at market rate – but don’t worry we are not punitive and you won’t be hit with a big bill you aren’t expecting.
Is the studio accessible?
The studio is in a basement down a flight of stairs with no lift – there is nothing we can currently do about this situation. Please bear that in mind when booking the studio. Apologies.
IS THERE PARKING?
There are 4 public spaces outside the studio that can be used for loading in. These spaces can be used for up to 4 hours and paid for via RingGo. Please note that the studio is on a busy street, so the spaces are frequently in use. If you need more than 4 hours, we recommend City Car Parks & Storage, 244-278 Crondall St, London N1 6JF, which is a 2 minute drive/5 minute walk from the studio.
WHAT IF I RUN OVER?
If booking by the hour we allow a 10 minute grace period to wrap out. After 10 minutes, you will be charged for another hour.
With half day or full 8 hour day bookings, overtime is charged at £60 per hour after a reasonable grace period. We know that these things happen, so if you are making a clear effort to get out and are just running over a bit, chances are we’ll let it slide.
