Welcome to Surface Studio, the original surface rental place in NYC - all made here in our studio at 242 West 30th St NYC since 1996!

Our combined decades of on-set experience as photo stylists (wardrobe sets props) with Joseph's professional background as an internationally reviewed and recognized fine artist (sculptor/printmaker/painter/photographer) inform our constantly growing and renewed inventory of unique, artistic hard-surface bacgrounds, still-life set pieces, objets and shapes.

We've worked on both sides of the camera and bring the required atttention to detail which shines through on decades of successful photo shoots.
Peruse our website for a vast array of surfaces, a huge selection of artistically hand made set pieces and risers, as well as driftwoods, objets and beautiful tabletop props, specifically created for photography.

We continue to provide excellent personalized service and a superior website experience, photographing our inventory with a Mamiya Phase One Medium Format camera. 

Please consider signing up for our occasional informative emails and follow us @surfacestudionyc and @ssda_nyc

For those of you outside of an easy drive or walk to our midtown south studio for a rental pickup, we are thrilled to have recently expanded with https://surfacestudiodigitalassets.com/
