Cawston Ostrich Farm South Pasadena circa 1886

Welcome to Ostrich Farm Studio, an award-winning boutique studio specializing in film, video, and photography. Our studio is in beautiful South Pasadena, California, just a few minutes from downtown Los Angeles, on the historical site of the Cawston Ostrich Farm, America's first ostrich farm established in 1886.

Our studio's thoughtful design was built by industry professionals and, inspired by Glenn's affinity for behavioral science and lifelong interest in interior design and architecture, seamlessly combines natural and built environments to inspire creativity and enhance content production.

Since October 2014, our doors have been open to the film industry, and we have worked tirelessly to create a cohesive client experience that offers best-in-class support. To further enhance our services, we assign a technical assistant to each client, ensuring a smooth and expedited process from start to finish, ultimately saving time and money.
