Straight answers

What does headshot studio london cost at Scope?
Studio B starts at £120. Studio A starts at £160. Set-up and pack-down are inside your booked time.

Yes — a colour-washable cyclorama in a sound-treated, controlled room, set once and left alone until the last sitter leaves.
Where do people wait?
In the dressing and prep room, the client lounge or the kitchen — so the next sitter is not watching the current one being lit.
