That’s Right - We have a Hire Studio Also…….
Alice Posing at Studio Frenzy
In amongst the excitement of creating tintypes and colloidian plates, teaching analogue black and white photography, understanding off-camera flash, learning new skills at Mount Barney Lodge, exhibiting fabulous new work in first time solo exhibitions, hosting industry workshops, hiring photographic equipment, processing old-school film (and selling it as well); we almost forgot the Studio at the back of Foto Frenzy.
Do you need a simple studio to complete that University/College assignment, shoot a fashion catalogue in a day, discreetly create a maternity shoot, finalise that unpublished Great Photographic Project, produce a series of corporate portraits, or just experiment with new techniques or equipment? Studio Frenzy may be your answer.
With 50 square metres of space, a 3.3 metre ceiling, stunning natural light by way of antique french doors and off-street parking……. and only six kilometres from the CBD - this may be the photographic solution for you.

We recently had Hollie from Zealous Swimwear working on a new catalogue with Stephanie taking the images. We can’t show you any images of course, (commercial-in-confidence), but we can show you the Studio in action.
It was a busy day at Foto Frenzy, with a constant stream of visitors to view the current exhibition, the girls (and there were lots of them) working on the catalogue, and our long suffering Ron matting and framing the fabulous Darren Jew Liquid Light Exhibition destined for display at the Bondi Pavilion in Sydney as part of the Head-On Festival.
Of course we really should spend more time talking about the Studio Cat, T-Max, but as he is nocturnal and lives in the ceiling, he is very rarely sighted.

Imagine taking your next portrait series with this wonderful window light?
Perspectives of Form

Perspectives of Form: A Sojourn Away, an exhibition of black and white photographs by Hardy Lamprecht, is currently showing at Gallery Frenzy until 30 May. This collection of twenty-nine images is Lamprecht’s first solo exhibition and is proving popular with viewers and collectors alike.

With the exhibition open less than a week, we are proud of the first five sales to discerning purchasers. Demonstrating a fine understanding of tone, texture and lighting, Lamprecht has managed to reduce man-made objects into abstract photographic interpretations. A reference to the title is often necessary to find the image’s location, such is the abstraction. This enables the viewer to concentrate on shape and style rather than playing the role of tourist.
As Lamprecht stated in the exhibition catalogue - the world is full of form and because our perception of it is optional and sometime subjective, we can miss its random wonders of symmetry, geometry, texture and repetition.

The Gallery Frenzy space is proving popular, and the 2014 calendar of bookings will be opened in the next few weeks. Shows are planned until the end of this year, and if you are wish to attend our next opening, please register your interest on our website. Daze of Futures Past by Vanessa Laverty will open on 6 June.
The images illustrated in this article have been sold, BUT there are still some wonderful photographs available. The Gallery is open on weekdays from 10:00 to 4:30, and by appointment at other times.
