“I have been using iWink Studio in Newport Beach since the beginning of the year. I am a struggling fashion / editorial / print photographer in the Orange county area and having access to an affordable studio rental is paramount to my success. There are almost endless opportunities here for lighting whether you have your own or use Sammy’s lights. Furthermore, I find that using the New Port Beach address as the shoot location has it’s advantages to have models want to work with you. He has everything you could need to achieve your shoot including a full blown dressing room with a lit make up mirror. In the main studio you can even mix natural and artificial light and is perfect for family type shots. Sammy is always there to help and has even offered me lighting tips that I missed to help my shots be stronger. Although, I haven’t taken any of his digital photography classes seeing his portfolio on the wide screen T.V. as you enter the lobby I may look into this in the future. I can not recommend this studio enough for all of your Digital Photography needs. I am almost a weekly user and it saves me hundreds per month over having my own studio. Best Deal in studio rental in Orange County to date. “

“iWink is an outstanding resource, the ample studio space is perfect. Plenty of parking, easy access and the staff is knowledgeable, supportive and willing to assist. Without hesitation I recommend A+++”
-B.R., 5-19-2012

“This one definitely deserve five stars. The studio was actually a lot bigger than I thought it would be. Big enough to use a 50mm or longer lens on an APS-C sensor. Sammy was awesome and helpful. He stuck around after the shoot to help clean up and chat with the models and photographers. Will keep this one in mind for future studio shoots.”
-Harold G., 5-27-2012

“iWink Studios was absolutely delightful to work in. Despite having never worked in a studio before, Sammy quickly made me feel at ease, offering helpful tips whenever I needed them. Of course I have no other experiences to compare to, but I was impressed with the setup nonetheless. The studio was spacious, easy to maneuver, I never found myself tripping over cords or anything similar. The equipment worked seamlessly, allowing me to focus on quality photographs and on my model. I’m a student but I found the rates extremely affordable, a bargain without a doubt. Thank you Sammy and iWink studios!!”

Sammy’s a real pro and a great manager, knowing the particular needs of photographers, models, MUA’s and stylists.

“I was just at the studio a few days ago and the professionalism at iwink photography studios blew me away. going into it, I was under the impression that they only offered photography studio rentals…*wrong* ….that’s just the beginning at iwink. I had no idea that they offered classes as well. Not just digital photography classes either…they actually have studio lighting classes. What an awesome place to work and learn.
The CEO, Sammy was on site and made sure we were completely taken care of. He even had a place to plug in my iphone for music while we worked. I’ve never experienced service in a studio quiet like this.
If you are a photographer, and are looking for a studio in Orange County, I suggest you check it out. Although Its located in the Irvine, Newport Beach area, I traveled from Fountain Valley to get there, and will do it again. Thank you iwink studios, your facility, rates and hospitality are unmatched.”
-Kelly M., 10-19-2012

Located in beautiful Newport Beach in Orange County, iWink Studios is a very convenient place to have a photo shoot. iWink Studios also offers digital photography classes, that are worth taking if you are just learning to do studio lighting. I recommend this place to photographers. Thanks again Sammy!”

“The perfect photo studio to do any kind of shoots! Two spacious studios with a fancy make up room! All lighting equipments I would need to do a shoot. Plus, the staffs are easy in the eyes, friendly and professional. Always productive and fun at iWink Studios”

“I’ve been to this studio a few times and it’s fantastic. Sammy is really nice and always helpful, and there is a nice (and good sized) makeup/ changing room. I can’t give a review of the rates, as I’ve always come to model– but it seems to me the size and functionality would be well worth the small expense. I’d never been to Newport Beach (I live in LA), but my Garmin had no problem finding it… I’ve been told some signals go out, so make to check out where you’re going ahead of time.”

“Amazing studio rental!!! Studios are huge, beautiful hair and makeup room, and Sammy the owner is so knowledgeable and helpful!! He even does editorial, fashion, portraits and much more himself. He even teaches classes that are extremely helpful and has expanded my knowledge that much more. You can rent studio equipment at a great price … Oh and the pricing for the studio Itself is so reasonable it’s hard to pass up the offer. Don’t miss this awesome studio and all it has to offer!”

“This one definitely deserve five stars. The studio was actually a lot bigger than I thought it would be. Big enough to use a 50mm or longer lens on an APS-C sensor. Sammy was awesome and helpful.

“Working at iWink Studios was simply a delightful experience. As an amateur photographer, it was my first time working in a studio, and Sammy was incredibly helpful, graciously giving me advice whenever I asked for it. Nervous though I was walking in, Sammy quickly made me feel very comfortable, and it became easy working with him and my model. The studio is FANTASTIC, very large, I was able to use a 50mm with no problem. The lights and equipment worked flawlessly, making it very easy for me to focus on the quality of the photographs. Rates were a bargain, quite affordable for a student like me. iWink Studios is a fantastic, flexible, affordable studio with a comfortable, helpful environment. I will definitely be returning.”

“I needed a photo studio in Orange county at last minute for a model shoot (actually multiple models) and iWink studios was perfect. Sammy was very helpful going over the equipment (studio lights). The fact it was located in a nice neighborhood was a big plus.”
