The all-natural light photo studio consists of 2 rooms with a light pastel color palette. This is an 80m2 space with 3 large windows, and has a small space for makeup and getting ready before the session. Offers a minimalistic interior and some cute props.

Location: Near Khanh Hoi Park | District 4


Thinker & Dreamer Space is a photo studio for rent with good location in Saigon filled with poetic vibes. There are 3 spaces, including The Yard, The Poetry and the Sky.


  • The Yard located on the ground floor, embracing both an indoor and an outdoor spaces. The yard is filled with stones, and has a green space with plants. There are drawings, mirrors and chairs too for even more unique concept photo shoot.


  • The Poetry is located on the first floor, where sunlight gleams through windowpane. With the combination of dark brown elements and minimal drawings, the space evokes gentle, charming feelings.


  • The Sky is a sunny-windy rooftop, where your eyes can admire endless blue sky. At different times in a day, this space offers different sunlight effects.


This photo studio is perfect for any photography project and I find it very inspiring.

Both studios are large spaces with different concept and a variety of props to set up the right vibes for your photo session. 


  • The concept of Monoban Space is exquisite wood combined with elegant gray and natural green tones.

10. LE CASA STUDIO


Location: 1 minute drive from the Big C Truong Chinh | Tan Phu District


This photo studio may have not the best location compared to the rest studios listed here (it's quite far if you resident in more central districts of Ho Chi Minh City, or especially if you're in favorite among expats Thao Dien or District 7), however, it's a great studio and may serve your photoshoot very well if you're looking for both indoor and outdoor space with simple yet stylish interiors, natural sun light, or opt for the studio lightning. Not every photo studio in Saigon can offer all of that.
