Oaklands Studios Pro

I had a wonderful time at Oaklands studios this weekend. Neil's pre comms were fantastic and even with so many things going on in my life, he was so patient and compassionate, it really made booking a studio day a total breeze.
The studio has a huge range of rooms as well as some cool features like a waterfall!!
The day ran smoothly and Neil was a great host. I even got some biscuits for my journey home!
I would definitely recommend this studio!

This is the 2nd time working at Oaklands, it is a very intersting studio with loads of rooms available to use with numerous flash and continuous lights available to use. Neil is very accomodating and looks after you very well, offering assisstance if you need it.
I think it would be difficult to use all the available sets even if you booked a whole day there.
I am sure I will return again in the near future and recommend it if you need a variety of different rooms/looks for you images.

I've been hoping to shoot at Oaklands since they opened and I am pleased that I have finally been able to pay my first visit there. It's my favourite environment to shoot in - a large mansion with a vintage feel, lots of different rooms, cellars, outside sets and private gardens. I have to say that when I arrived it exceeded my expectations and I knew that this is somewhere I would like to come back to whenever I can.

I only had three hours this time and I barely scratched the surface of what I could achieve there. Now that I have seen it in person I will be better able to plan my next visit. It's also very well equipped with lighting, props and accessories.

Pre-shoot comms were excellent and arranging everything was straightforward. Neil was a fantastic host, looked after us really well and helped everything run smoothly.

I would absolutely recommend Oaklands and just wish it was nearer home for me.

I contacted Neil at Oaklands Studio to ask about holding a studio day, from the moment communication started I had a good feeling and I was right! Neil is absolutely lovely, consummate professional and hosts his studio beautifully!
Sorting the studio day was done with ease and Neil was great at helping advertise it and running the days it self!
Oaklands Studio is a beautiful home, that has beautiful period features and many opportunities of a variety of places and sets to shoot in plus a lovely outside place to shoot too!
Neil kindly also allowed me to stay in the studio where I felt incredibly welcome, I had a beautiful room to stay in and I felt very comfortable throughout my stay.
The studio days were a complete success and I left on a high I worked with so many fantastic photographers and thoroughly enjoyed my time there. I would wholeheartedly recommend Neil and Oaklands Studio it’s a real gem! I hope I can return in the near future! Definitely one to visit!

Had my first shoot today at Oakland studios for a model day with Lily Kink. Messaged the studio in advance for directions and Neil was so helpful, sending a picture of the studio as seen from the road. I arrived early and Neil made me a coffee and gave me a tour of the different sets I could use. An impressive set up with many settings and outdoors as well if weather is fine. Neil was extremely helpful in setting up sets with lighting if needed.. Had a great time there, and can highly recommend Neil and his studio.

I had my first shoot at Oaklands Studios with Lily and I was so impressed! It's huge, has such varied sets/rooms to shoot in and it has everything you could possibly need. The owner is a great host, very welcoming and on hand to help when needed. The options here are never ending, the building has so much character it's amazing. Really looking forward to shooting here again in the future and can highly recommend it to other models and photographers. Thank you!

The new modern studio is great underneath the old fashion mansion. It has different scenes, props and things to use. He has many lights to use too. The outside sheds are good with different sets in them. Each room is unique, and not just a white background/backdrop like some studios have. The garden with the big field is great to use in the summer. I recommend this studio to models and photographers as said about in my interview which will put on their website.

Had a brilliant experience shooting at Oaklands Studios! Neil was incredibly welcoming and accommodating — he showed us around the whole space, helped move props to suit our shoot, and made sure we were well looked after with endless cups of tea (very good tea, might I add!) and a generous supply of biscuits. The studio is well-equipped, clean, and flexible for a variety of scenes. You can tell Neil genuinely cares about creating a comfortable and professional environment. Highly recommend and would absolutely return!

This was my second shoot at Oaklands, this time with the amazing JeffB. The owners are so friendly, helpful and accommodating. I absolutely loved our shoot there. There are so many different settings and locations to shoot here, some really unique backdrops. The time flew by and we didn’t get around everywhere in the four hours we had. Parking is great and it’s easy to get to off the motorway. We captured some amazing images and I’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend.

My first shoot at the fabulous Oaklands Studios with the wonderful InnocentAnna. After a warm welcome and a tour of the many areas in which to shoot, we made the most of of our time and shot both indoors and outdoors.
The variety and options of places to shoot is impressive, very impressive, and the natural light was great., although Neil did offer his help in setting up lights if we needed / wanted. I can’t remember how many different sets we shot, but I do know we didn’t shoot everywhere in the 4 hours we were there.
Neil was the perfect host and I can thoroughly recommend this excellent studio. Thank you!

Another fantastic shoot at Oaklands with resident photographer Neil.
Such varied sets and spacious rooms!
But this time we made the most of the good weather and outdoor spaces.
The field with hay bails, the garden with apple trees and veggie patch, then the lumber jack set.
Finally i did some promo work for their next set to be releases....the long awaited waterfall set!!!
The images i have seen are absolutely stunning!
Would recommend 100%
Great value for money!

First time shooting at the studio on a GG shoot. The place is very ornate and classy and was perfect for what I had in mind. I think it's a perfect place for classy erotica/adult and other styles too. Neil showed me around at the start and was very friendly and on hand during the shoot to help out. I plan on coming back to the studio again sometime in the future. An overall great place to work in and I would highly recommend it.

First time shooting here and what a great place N & J have set up.
Pre shoot comms were great as I was shooting with @Lily_kink and it’s one of her residencies.
The studio is in a large house, many room options, basement sets and further ‘annexed’ sets being created. There are already outdoor options with yet more ideas under construction. So much choice you could shoot repeatedly and still have creative spaces to explore.
Priced sensibly and a comfortable environment to work in, Oaklands will no doubt be a very busy location.
Thoroughly recommended and I will be returning ?
Thank you N & J.

I had my first two shoots at Oaklands Studios today and I was so impressed! It's huge, has such varied scenes to shoot in - everything you could possibly want. The owner is a great host, very welcoming and on hand to help when needed. The options here are never ending, the building has so much character it's amazing. Really looking forward to shooting here again in the future and can highly recommend it to other models and photographers. Thank you!

Today was my first shoot at Oaklands studios. Specifically for their garage set.
Neil met us on arrival and gave Megan the model and myself a full tour and explained everything to us.
The house is lovely, with a staircase to die for, but unfortunately for this shoot, we didn’t take advantage of any of it, but I’m sure I will in the future.

I would recommend Oaklands studios especially for anyone looking for a large period look for their shoot.

This was my first time seeing the wonderful Oaklands studio - I didn't know what to expect but goodness my jaw dropped!

A beautiful periodic house with lots of different rooms in a lovely setting, each room kitted out with whimsical furnishings that suit it.

As Neil gave me the tour, all I could keep uttering was "this is crazy" which it absolutely is in the best way!

On my 2 day shoot there with Doctorsin (with Neil as cameraman), it all worked so well, I was particularly impressed at how well heated the rooms were.

I definitely hope to be back!

I had my first visit and shoot in Oaklands studio with MoonlitDoor.

Neil at the studio is very helpful and showed us through the house and explained everything we needed to know.

The studio is amazing with many different rooms. It has some really nice features like, windows, fireplaces, library, staircase and garage.

We shoot in many different rooms and got some great shots. We also shot outside in the garden.

I would highly recommend using this studio.

This was my first shoot at Oaklands, a kind of reborn JDL Studios which I had previously used and enjoyed shooting at. So when I understood that Oaklands was the 'new JDL' I booked it for a first shoot with PrettyB.

Neil met us at Wakefield train station and drove us to Oaklands (and back). He was very helpful throughout, carefully taking us all round the house, outbuildings and sets, and explained everything including the family history of the house, the lighting equipment and its possibilities.

The house consists of lovely period Victorian (mostly) decor and furnishings, including a genuine family library and a fine red-carpeted staircase. The big windows provide good natural light. There's a great workshop set, a hospital set, and a lovely garden with a view. In fact most of the 'sets' are actually a series of period rooms, more or less as they were once lived in.

For the shoot, we had a free run of it all apart from the private quarters of course. In fact from my own point of view, there was so much scope, we couldn't use all of it in the time we had, so we both agreed we'd love to come back.

I totally recommend Oaklands especially for anyone looking for a period look for their shoot. However, this studio is 'work in progress' and Neil has great plans especially for the outbuildings and garden area, so watch this space!

Yesterday's shoot at Oaklands Studios went extremely well, and what a fantastic studio it is.
It has many rooms to shoot in and props to use/ in the background. It also has a lovely outdoor area where you can shoot, which looked amazing. Next time, I'd love to do some stuff out there. This place also has a cellar, which was super cool to shoot in yesterday. The rooms at the place are very spacious, so plenty of space to move around for a photographer and model or even multiple people. The car parking at the location was excellent; it features a large driveway that allows you to park right outside.

I really loved the studio and i look forward to any more future bookings there :)

Highly recommend to all models and photographers.

Thanks

I’ve had the pleasure of working at Oakland’s Studio twice now, and I absolutely love it here! The studio is spacious and offers a variety of beautifully designed sets, each thoughtfully created and built to an exceptionally high standard. Whether you’re shooting photos or producing videos, the quality and versatility of this space make it a dream to work in.

Highly recommend booking Oakland’s Studio for your shoots and productions—you won’t be disappointed!

My first photo shoot in JDL Studio earlier today, the location is brilliant, just 10 minutes drive from Train Station. The Studio has got a changing room , shower facilities, also different set rooms available to choose from, tea / coffee, juice offerings before the shoot, very clean. I have not met the owner Jasmine yet but hopefully next time.
Yet again, thank you Neil and Stuart for welcoming me.
See you soon.
Best Regards,
Nicole May

I had my first shoot at JDL studios after messaging the assistant of the company that I was coming to the area. It is in an industrial estate. The owner welcomed me in helping me carry my boxes of outfits. The studio was remarkable in the way that it had so many different scenes to use, and downstairs had very interesting and unique sets that I had not seen at any studio before. I wanted to use as many as possible as something new for my portfolio.
Jasmine was on call for if and when I needed something. I felt comfortable shooting here and would come back again.
She was easy to chat to.
Recommending to other models

Had a fantastic day shooting here today. Always a warm and friendly welcome. There’s some fabulous new sets been added and some alterations to some existing sets and I have to say it’s absolutely excellent! Jasmine is a fantastic host and it was great to see her again. Nothing was too much trouble fuelled by a steady stream of hot tea and coffee. The only problem is the ambiance makes the clock go faster! Three hours just flew by! Would I recommend the studio? That’s a big fat YES!
WillI shoot there again? Without a doubt and soon!
If you haven’t been yet pop it on your bucket list you won’t be disappointed ?

Thank you Jasmine for a fabulous day!

I shot at JDL Studios multiple times now both as photographer as well as a grip for another photographer during their shoots.

Jasmine the owner is great and coms for sorting bookings a easy to manage.

With the 2 studio spaces having a verity of sets, it allows a lot of flexibility for what can be shot at one studio. Jasmine regularly has stuff added too the sets and update in general so booking to booking always means there will be some new options the shoot with.

Free parking onsite is near the studio doors, obviously this helps if you need to unload a lot of kit.

But having shot a verity of types of shoots I can verify it is flexible. From Bondage, costume/cosplay, glamour, art nude & adult higher levels, the studio is suitable for most types of shoot.

Highly recommend
