Private Studio Photography in Lucero, Madrid
Located in the Lucero district of Madrid—just steps from the Lucero Metro station (Line 6)—The Factory Lucero is an exclusive, private studio space designed for professional portraiture, high-fashion portfolios, acting headshots, and corporate branding.
Easily accessible via Metro Line 6 with convenient street parking and adjacent parking options (Aldi and Mercadona), the studio operates strictly by advance appointment to guarantee complete privacy and focused creative sessions. The facility is exclusively dedicated to Edward Olive shoots and is not available for third-party studio hire or open to the public.
Advanced Lighting Setups & Technical Staging
Every session utilizes multi-point lighting configurations—combining overhead, key, fill, rim, and background sources—to sculpt the subject with precision. We blend warm tungsten tones, cool daylight, and vibrant RGB color palettes to create cinematic contrast and depth.
Seamless Backgrounds & Optical Projection
- Professional Seamless Paper Backgrounds: Deep black, high-key white, neutral mid-greys, light blue, slate blue, dark crimson red, and warm beige.
- Digital PC Staging & Texture Projection: Direct digital projection connected to a dedicated workstation, allowing custom digital imagery, textures, and graphic patterns to be projected directly onto backdrops, garments, or models.
- Optical Gobos & Snoots: High-output COB LED lights paired with specialized Godox projection snoots and gobos to cast sharp optical patterns, window shadows, and dramatic light beams.
- RGB LED Background Sculpting: Independent color-controllable LED fixtures to wash backgrounds with custom color gradients without spilling onto the subject.
Real-Time Visual Feedback & Live Review
- Large Format Wall Monitor: Immediate, high-resolution tethered playback for instant review of full-frame photos and video captures.
- Talent Direction Monitor: A camera-mounted monitor facing the subject, providing real-time visual feedback so models, actors, and executives can adjust their posing, expressions, lighting angles, and kinetic performance live during the session.
Sculpting Modifiers & Studio FX
- High-Definition Light Modifiers: Beauty dishes for crisp facial sculpting, large-format softboxes for wrap-around key light, and honeycomb grids to eliminate spill and direct light with surgical control.
- In-Studio Wind FX: Professional studio hair blowers and wind machines to introduce kinetic motion and dynamic flow to portrait and fashion sessions.
