Studio Bee, Dance, Art & Photography

Studio Bee is positioned as a specialist portrait studio serving Droylsden and Greater Manchester. Portrait photography is our core focus: we create professional headshots, full-body portraits and polished images for business profiles, LinkedIn and personal portfolios. Our aim is simple — to deliver authentic, confident portraits in a relaxed, welcoming environment. What sets Studio Bee apart is our studio environment and approach. The 1200 sq ft space benefits from skylights and side windows that allow beautiful natural light when desired, while our studio lighting kit gives precise control when a more editorial or dramatic look is needed. Colour backdrops and flexible set options mean each session is tailored: whether you need a clean corporate headshot, a creative portrait or a performer profile, we shape the lighting and background to match the brief. We position ourselves as portrait specialists, so every session is led by experienced photographers who know how to put clients at ease. Our style is collaborative and conversational — we guide expressions, posture and wardrobe choices to bring out natural confidence. Clients repeatedly comment on how comfortable and straightforward the sessions feel, even if they’re nervous about being photographed. The process is designed to be efficient and client-focused. Before the shoot we discuss the purpose of the portraits and preferred looks; during the session we provide professional studio conditions, a choice of backdrops and an organised, calm setting; after the shoot we offer prompt digital delivery and careful retouching so images are ready for web and print. We also support business needs by producing polished portraits suited to professional use without losing personality. While portrait photography is our speciality, we also make our studio available for hire — offering a practical, cost-effective space for other creatives in the region. Studio Bee thrives on a community-minded, practical ethos: straightforward pricing, a well-equipped studio and a friendly team who care about producing portraits that work for you. If you need a professional headshot, a standout LinkedIn photo or portrait work that reflects who you are, Studio Bee in Droylsden focuses on delivering results with clarity, skill and a relaxed atmosphere.
