~ Group Shoots ~
Upcoming Group Shoot:
Saturday, February 20th!
See our albums for pictures taken during past Group Shoots!
FNS Studios hosts Group Shoot events roughly every 4-6 weeks. A group of experienced models are made available for photographers to shoot with one-on-one in a relaxed setting.
Shoot in-studio, outdoors and throughout the studio complex located in the historic Indian Orchard Mills.
Hair/Makeup Artist(s), costumes, tons of props, etc. Models/Themes will vary from shoot to shoot.
Frustrated from dealing with no-shows?
We always book more models than photographers, so even if someone gets "sick" or has "car trouble", there's still a whole room full of models for you to work with!

~ Studio Rental ~
If you don't have a studio of your own, or want to meet your model (or photographer) halfway, you can also rent studio time hourly for one-on-one shoots.
1200 sq. foot studio. Lights, backdrops, couches, bed, massive prop/costume collection.
We can also put you in touch with excellent makeup/hair stylists.

Matt Harrison and Lesley Arak are the backbone of the studios and maintain management positions as well as their roles as artists. We also work with many visiting artists as well.
We focus mostly on glamour and fashion photography and working with models to better develop their portfolios. However, our collective interests run the gamut from artistic works for galleries to commercial work for print and digital production.
Our artists have experience in all genres of photography:
• Headshots
• Portfolio Development
• Engagement/Bridal Portraits
• Family Portraits
• Commercial Photography
• Photos for online use
• Boudoir Portraits
We have produced images for use in:
• images for magazines
• artwork for our and other galleries
• print work including posters, calendars, signs, and advertisements
• and content for our website clients
If you are looking to break into modeling – tell us that you are interested and schedule an appointment with you to arrange for a portfolio shoot so that you can see what it’s like to work as a model.
