We recently hosted a group meetup at EPK Social and had a fantastic experience! The staff were incredibly accommodating, flexible with arranging tables for our group, and even offered us a great deal on pizzas and drinks at the bar. Everyone enjoyed themselves, and the atmosphere was perfect for socializing. I'd definitely recommend EPK Social for meetups or events and we'll certainly be booking again!
Robbie was very helpful while we were shooting and we got some really good shots. There were loads of props available and all the equipment we needed. Will definitely be booking again
Robbie was super helpful on the day and was on hand throughout our entire shoot. No problem was too big or too small.
The studio space is amazing! It offers a lot of high quality equipment (lights, props etc.) and has a very great layout with a small styling & Makeup/hair area as well. Robbie is also extremely lovely and was happy to help throughout the shoot, wherever we had a request - Robbie was there. Extremely attentive and the space itself is a great value for money. Will definitely book again & would highly recommend!!
