Is this why in studios the engineers normally make you have the amp pretty loud even though you don't really need it to be that loud?

Natural Compression
Am I just imagining this or do amps seem to have a natural compression as you turn them up?

Tube amps do in a small way, but it's mostly your ears perceiving it b/c of the loud volumes.
Studios crank the amps up b/c that's how to get the best sound out of a tube amp.

yep, turning up is all about power tube saturation. Tone also changes as you turn up (Click here for an explanation of Fletcher-Munson curves) so it is important to rest your EQ.
