58 studios with natural daylight for hire in London.
View on MapThere are 58 natural daylight photography studios listed on Studio Map London. They're spread across all five London regions, with the highest concentration in East London.
North-facing studios have their main windows on the north side of the building, which gives consistent, soft, indirect light throughout the day with no harsh direct sunlight. North light is considered the gold standard for portrait, fashion, and product photography because it doesn't shift dramatically as the sun moves across the sky.
Not necessarily. Daylight studios tend to be older, character buildings — converted warehouses, Victorian factories, mews — and price varies more by location and floor area than by light type. Expect to pay £300–£800 per day for a mid-range London daylight studio.
Many daylight studios offer blackout blinds or curtains so you can block the natural light and shoot with strobes when needed. Studio Map flags whether each daylight studio also has blackout capability.
