Photo & Film Shoots

Where Every Frame Tells a Story

Maxwell isn't just a location—it's a collaborator in your creative vision. Our historic Tribeca brownstone offers 8,000 square feet of diverse backdrops, from British maximalism to old-world charm, all woven together by hand-painted wallpaper and custom furnishings that photograph beautifully under any lighting condition.

Full service, vertically integrated creative production house, built inside the very walls where our community has been coming alive since 2023. Maxwell Studio transforms our spaces into a complete production ecosystem where location meets capability.

A Location Scout's Dream

Every room at Maxwell offers something different. The Grand Room, with its soaring ceilings and vintage lighting, creates dramatic shadows and natural depth that cinematographers love. The Garden Room bathes subjects in golden hour light that changes throughout the day, perfect for those magic hour shots that make campaigns unforgettable.

Our Explorers Room, with its hand-painted Galapagos wallpaper and hot air balloon basket bar, provides whimsical backdrops that work for everything from lifestyle shoots to brand storytelling. And our two-floor library? It's where intellectual elegance meets visual poetry.

The Technical Side That Actually Works

Maxwell's integrated AV infrastructure means clean power distribution, controlled lighting systems, and acoustics designed for both live events and recording. Our team understands the technical requirements of modern production while maintaining the aesthetic integrity that makes Maxwell special.

We've learned that the best shoots happen when location and production support seamlessly blend. Maxwell Studio provides grip equipment, lighting options, and technical support that adapts to your specific needs, whether you're shooting stills, video content, or multi-camera productions.

More Than Just Pretty Spaces

What makes Maxwell exceptional for photo and film shoots isn't just our visual appeal—it's our understanding of how creative work actually happens. Our fully equipped kitchens become craft services headquarters. Our multiple spaces allow for simultaneous setups, wardrobe changes, and client presentations.

Our community of members often becomes part of the creative process. Maxwell's social energy can transform a standard shoot into something more dynamic, more authentic, more alive. When you need real people in real conversations, Maxwell delivers.
