Every creative sees light differently, but at Ambient Plus Studio, light becomes part of the story. Our restored 1910 factory building in Atlanta blends history with flexibility, giving artists a space that works with their vision rather than against it. The combination of original brick walls, hardwood floors, and massive windows makes it one of the city’s most inspiring studios for both photography and film.
A Creative Playground in the Heart of Atlanta
Ambient Plus Studio was designed to help artists, production teams, and couples capture moments in a setting that feels natural and versatile. The open layout, vintage structure, and daylight-rich interiors make it easy to transition between looks and lighting moods without long setup times. If it’s an editorial shoot, a commercial film, or a cinematic wedding story, the environment adapts to what you need.
The Power of Natural Light
Light is the signature feature of Ambient Plus Studio. The west-facing windows flood Stage 1 with golden tones every afternoon, giving filmmakers and photographers soft contrast and warm highlights that work beautifully on camera. Stage 4’s skylight creates an airy, even illumination that’s perfect for portraits, interviews, or product photography. These built-in lighting advantages reduce the need for heavy artificial setups and save valuable production time.
Spaces Designed for Every Style
Each stage has a distinct character, allowing different visual styles within one building.
Stage 1 offers 10,000 square feet with exposed brick, hardwood floors, and high ceilings, ideal for full-scale productions or wedding portrait sessions.
Stage 3 brings intimacy with 2,000 square feet of polished wood, a kitchenette, and a makeup nook for smaller crews or editorial shoots.
Stage 4, the Skylight Studio, offers creative control with its cyc wall, mirrored surfaces, and adjustable lighting options.
The Quonset adds texture and edge, with 10,500 square feet of concrete floors, skylights, and drive-in access for large-scale scenes or set builds.
How the Building’s History Adds Depth
Built in 1910 as a cotton factory, the studio’s structure has seen decades of transformation. The industrial details, thick beams, tall windows, and preserved brick, create natural layers in every shot. For filmmakers, this means real atmosphere without needing to construct elaborate sets. For photographers, it’s a backdrop that enhances light and form instead of distracting from it.
Flexibility That Supports Every Project
Ambient Plus Studio gives creators full control over how they use the space. With an open vendor policy and BYO catering and alcohol options, teams can customize their setup without restrictions. Furniture rentals and staff assistance simplify production logistics, and the ground-level access makes load-ins and wrap-ups smooth for any crew size.
Why Professionals Keep Returning
What keeps photographers and filmmakers coming back isn’t just the look of the space; it’s how easy it is to work here. The staff stays involved and responsive, helping with setup and transitions while giving teams the freedom to work independently. Many return clients say the studio’s light, sound, and flow save them hours of adjustment time and give their projects an authentic, cinematic quality.
A Venue That Fits Every Type of Creative Work
Ambient Plus Studio hosts everything from commercial shoots to music videos, art films, and wedding documentaries. The adaptable stages make it possible to shoot ceremony footage in one room, portraits in another, and reception scenes or live performances in a third. The flexibility means you can plan a complete story without switching locations across the city.
