Recommend a photography/photographic studio near Manchester, UK?


I've recently taken up photography and I was wondering if anyone knew of any photograhy studios in or around Manchester or the Northwest of the UK? I'm after people who've actually worked in the studios, what kind of prices they were charged and whether the hire included equipment. Any recomendations?

The best studio I've used is the recently opened Galleon Studios in Manchester. It's just off the M62 and has drive-in access which is a bonus to unloading your gear - especially in the rain. The space isn't an intimidating size but it's big enough for photography and for filming. The owners use the studio themselves for filming so it's kept in great condition and has a kitchen, toilet and green room.
The space itself has a cove which can be repainted, when I used it it was white. Apparently they also do green screen as well for video shoots.
They do charge for equipment but I've found their prices better than others. Their site is:

Good luck with your change of career!

There are a few in Ardwick who will rent space and equipment, but the prices are aimed at professions and every piece of equipment will cost you extra.

If you have just taken up photography, the cheapest access to studio facilities will be at a night-school photographic class.
