neolestat

Based in St Austell, Cornwall and East London; Neolestat are Andy Craddock (me! photography and surfing/skateboarding; Cornwall) and Diane Lowe (media and promotion; London).

Our Studio & Art Gallery is currently moving so in the meantime please phone:

Mobile: +44 (0) 7795 262665

Our passions and specialities are alternative lifestyle, glamour, burlesque and art photography. We are currently shooting for internet projects, gallery showings and publication, working alongside some of the UK’s biggest fetish companies and personalities.

Our ‘art’ project-of-the-moment is a slightly adult, slightly edgy series of shoots hopefully for publication later this year. I would like to think of the theme as being sexually charged without being blatantly pornographic. If fact it would even suit confident models with bags of personality that wished to remain mostly clothed. Feel free to drop me a line if you’d like to know more.

We don’t usually accept TFP/CD requests from new models although we will occasionally offer ‘test’ shoots for our projects or agency on a TFP/CD basis. Please ask if interested.

We are more than happy to collaborate with MUA’s, hair stylists and wardrobe technicians looking for new images for their portfolios. Again; please ask if interested.

For commercial work and new model portfolios please check our website for current prices and information.

Our studio is based on 4No Bowen's RX 600s, fully radio triggered or PC controlled. There are multiple reflectors, umbrellas and softboxes for light control. We have multiple coloured backdrops and an area for fixed tiled or wallpapered backgrounds. Shooting can be tethered or to card and a post-processing suite is available on site. Camera hire, tuition and model hire are available on an hourly basis. Minimum two hours.

We also have secured a few retail opportunities. We want to be the classiest mini-boutique in Cornwall and are therefore very selective about the lines we stock. Currently we work with Velda Lauder (Dita Von Teese’s corsetiere), Angels Carrying Savage Weapons and Prong from whom we stock a sumptuous latex boa made in any colour/colours of your choice.

For a better overall feel to who we are and who we work with please take the time to have a look at our website by following the link at the top of the page. If you live in the Cornwall area feel free to drop by the studio (when we re-open) for a chat or note me regarding our monthly studio party – The only place in Cornwall where the BDSM world mixes with the LGBT community, the Burlesque scene, alternative models, glamour models and the locals in complete harmony.

Thanks for stopping by!
