Wooden Floors - Treading the Boards
14th December 2022
Texture adds something to your shoot whilst maintaining a minimalist and muted look. Wooden floors can show a softer side to your set up, add a spooky touch or even the benefit of the sound you can record of walking the boards.
Instead of organising a backdrop, check out our list of studios with wooden floors here.

Tower Hamlet, London
Kora Photo Studio boasts a variety of wooden floors, from beautiful herringbone in various tones and shades, to gorgeous dark wood.
Parquet, or Herringbone has the great effect of making the room seem larger than it is and gives a sense of movement. The herringbone pattern has an ancient history and wooden parquet flooring is said to have been first introduced in sixteenth Century France.
Kora Photo Studio is a fully equipped rental studio for photography, video shoots and more. They offer beautifully dressed spaces, open 7 days a week (by appointment only).
