LS Studio, also known as LS, was an online subscription service and photography studio based in Ukraine, operated by Alexander Chursin. From 2001 to August 2004, LS Studio created hundreds of thousands of photographic images (and hundreds of videos) featuring young teen and prepubescent girls, which were sold via the Internet. During this period, the studio produced approximately 80 issues or collections, including LS-Land, LS-Stars, LS-Barbie, LS-Flash, LS-Girls, LS-Show, LS-Magazine, LS-Animal, LS-Island, and LS-Fantasy, attracting thousands of members worldwide. Subscription services were conducted entirely online, with members paying for access using credit cards.

While early collections often featured nude girls in natural poses, later collections also contained many images of girls in sexually suggestive poses. No actual sexual acts were portrayed but there were implied sexual acts such as the models sucking on bananas. Many later collections also featured the girls wearing custom-tailored costumes. The backgrounds appeared to be custom-built, similar to stage-play sets. The photography produced by LS Studio is commonly found in the illegal collections of Child Pornography convicts, and in most cases, it was not obtained from the site itself.

Approximately 1500 girls, ages 7 to 16 were recruited as models in Kiev, Kharkov and Simferopol in Ukraine. Various nude photos were taken and uploaded to servers in United States and Canada. Quality and quantity of material on the site was unmatched, and soon it became the most popular child erotica website in the world. The site brought in several hundred thousand dollars in profit during the 3 years it was in service. The entire operation was run by a Ukrainian man in his mid-20s.

News stories have been published on the Internet which describe a studio, based in Kiev, Ukraine, which was raided and shut down by the authorities because of illegal activity. Some of the descriptions in these stories coincide very closely with the content which appears in LS Studio images. Namely, the large number of girls and the custom-tailored outfits.

After several months of investigation by Interpol and the Ukraine police, the operation was finally terminated in August 2004.
