8b Studio

Our studio, 8b Studio, is at 31/A Sathi Nagar, 14th Street in Nerkundaram. We are pretty close to Mgr University, which is the main landmark around here. We do creative work, mostly photography and some design stuff. The space is basically one large room with different backdrops and a lot of lights on stands. It’s always a bit of a mess with cables and props laying around. We try to keep it tidy, but when we’re in the middle of a project, that usually goes out the window. People find us because of the university nearby. We get students coming in for portraits or small projects. The 14th street is a bit narrow, so parking can be a bit of a headache sometimes. We don't have a big sign out front, just a small one near the door. It’s a relaxed environment. We usually have some music playing while we work. We aren't a high-end corporate studio with a makeup artist and a caterer. It’s just us and our cameras. We like it that way because it lets us focus on the images. Sometimes the lighting isn't perfect and we have to fiddle with it for an hour, but that’s part of the job. We just enjoy the process of capturing things. It’s a simple life in Nerkundaram, doing what we like and keeping the business going. We’ve been at this address for a while and don't see ourselves leaving soon.
