Shooting in a commercial gym means working around members, negotiating off-peak windows and hoping nobody wanders through the frame. The Bailey, the private gym studio at Story + Space, removes all of that: a fully equipped gym with no members, no public, and no compromises, available by arrangement for brand campaigns, fitness filming and hosted events. It is run by a content studio founded by a specialist fitness photographer, so the space is set up by someone who shoots in gyms for a living.
The Bailey is offered enquiry-led rather than booked online, and is reserved for large brand campaigns and hosted events; hire is bespoke and scoped against your brief. If your shoot leans boxing rather than gym, The Bowery, our boxing gym studio in the same building, is bookable by the hour as a self-serve alternative. Both are in Colwick, minutes east of Nottingham city centre.
The Bailey is hired by arrangement only, with each campaign or event quoted individually against the brief; there are no published rates and no online booking for this room. The Bowery, our boxing gym studio, is bookable by the hour at £83.33 ex VAT with equipment, lighting and support included.
Story + Space is in Colwick, minutes east of Nottingham city centre. Full address, access and arrival details are confirmed once your hire is arranged.
No. The Bailey is a private gym studio, not a commercial gym, so there are no members and no public during your hire. The space is yours for the agreed time.
The Bailey is reserved for large brand campaigns and hosted events, and every hire is scoped individually around the brief and availability. Send an enquiry with your dates, crew size and intended use, and we will come back to arrange next steps.
The Bowery, our boxing gym studio in the same building, is bookable by the hour and suits boxing-style and combat sports shoots. For non-boxing gym briefs, enquire about The Bailey and we will advise on fit.
This space is reserved for a small number of bookings. Tell us about the brief and we will come back to you.
