Shooting Kitchen Studio in Queens
DUTCHESS STUDIO is a 2000 sq ft kitchen photo studio in Queens, NY for food, product, still-life, cookbook, and lifestyle photography shoots. The studio was thoughtfully created by a photographer + prop stylist duo to meet the specific needs of food/still-life productions.
We love color and have designed the space with both fun and function in mind. Our shoot-in kitchen is well-equipped for food prep, while also working double duty as a beautiful set option for photo shoots. We stocked the space with custom finishes, stainless steel appliances, and an 8’ moveable island for total flexibility. With unobstructed Northern & Western exposures, the studio is flooded with natural light, with an option for partial blackout (full blackout coming soon).
We have an in-house prop workshop and can offer prop rentals for an additional fee. We have plenty of grip and EQ included in the rental rate, with additional Profoto lighting, modifiers + more available for rent.
First 2 OT hours $255
OT beyond 12 hours $340
