Portraits at the White Room Studio
Steeped in natural light thanks to its tall and elegant windows, the 2,400-square-foot White Room Studio space has an almost nostalgic character. Located in River Valley and spanning two floors of a colonial Peranakan shophouse, it’s one of the most established photography studios in Singapore. With a candid and relaxed portraiture style, the team of family photographers in Singapore have over 70 years of experience in portraits – so it’s little wonder that families come back year after year to have their memories captured!
A word from a client:
Victoria returned to this photography studio for a family photoshoot after going there for her first newborn session:
“I highly recommend White Room Studio. The portraits are great – we have them framed in our house and featured on social media. The talented and professional team takes all the stress and nerves out of the process, and the results are just amazing!”

A word from a client
Claire is an English professional working in Singapore:
“I’d left it to the last minute to update my headshot, and when my new company asked me to submit a profile picture before the end of the week, I was super stressed. I called Theresa, and within a few hours she had booked me in for the next day.
When I arrived at her photography studio, her makeup artist sorted me out within an hour, and Theresa was then ready with her camera and three different background colours.
The whole process was smooth. I’d been worried about posing, as I hate being in front of the camera. But I almost forgot it was a photoshoot! Theresa didn’t have a time limit and I could use all three outfits I had brought for the portraits. When I had to select my images, I wanted all of them!
I can’t recommend Theresa enough. She’s fun and professional, and makes you feel extremely relaxed. The whole process, from booking to delivery of images, was effortless.”

A word from a client
“Melody is amazing to work with and pays great attention to detail. She also knows how to make you feel comfortable. The portraits turned out superbly – beautiful lighting and they definitely showcased my family in the best possible way. We loved that she had the lions and the very Singaporean CNY backdrop in her studio. It was also so much fun taking pictures outdoors with the shophouse background. A great way to make and keep memories of our time in Singapore.” – Shimali Fernando-Gomez
