Newstead Studios offers a professional photography studio just 3km from the CBD and 10 minutes drive from Brisbane Airport.
With an abundance of natural light and 6m high ceilings, Newstead Studios is Brisbane’s best natural light studio, offering two unique areas to shoot in the one studio – a white corner cyclorama and a loft-style natural light content studio, styled with designer furniture and props for you to use. Set in an architecturally designed creative hub, and with one of Brisbane’s best cafes right downstairs, the studio is equipped with everything you need for the perfect shoot day.
We offer 2-hour, half day and full day bookings – see below for rates.
