I recently shot with Tim on location and found it to be a lovely experience.

Not only is Tim beaming with wonderful creativity (from the choice of location down to the beautiful wardrobe pieces he contributed), but he was also so very kind and accommodating throughout our time together which was even more appreciated as it was a maternity shoot!

I knew that Tim would be well organised prior to meeting him due to the great pre-coms and by the time that I had arrived back home from shooting, he had already uploaded an image for me to see...how's that for efficiency?!

I would absolutely recommend Tim.

I shot with Tim recently and what a wonderful shoot it was!

I was made to feel very comfortable and we shot in the woods doing art nude which was great fun, we tried quite a few different creative ideas also.

I would definitely recommend Tim, he is very friendly and welcoming.

Always have a great shoot with Tim and this one was no different! This time we did a mixture of life drawing and art nude, with some fashion nude thrown in and some experimentation with effects of a string of multicoloured lights :) One thing about working with Tim is that he is never at a loss for ideas - he is naturally very creative, being an artist, so even though we had no plan, we came out with unique and original shots!

I also feel the art nudes we shot that day are some of the best we have ever shot - Tim's new camera is doing justice to his creative flair and his photography gets better and better each time we shoot!

Thanks again Tim for another wonderful shoot xx

Had yet another lovely shoot with Tim last week. We went back to Tim's preferred medium, painting and drawing. He always makes sure I am comfortable before beginning, and chooses poses I can hold for a long time. We then moved on to some art nude photography using Tim's new camera. Tim really put thought into creating a narrative behind these shots, and setting a scene of lots of paintings in amongst my nude form. These worked BEAUTIFULLY. Tim's photography is developing all the time and these were some of his best yet I think! Thanks for a lovely shoot, great company and tasty lunch Tim xxx

I had a shoot with Tim this weekend and despite me turning up v early, he was so welcoming and lovely, setting me at ease from the very first moment.

Tim is an absolute delight to work with. Very creative kind and funny, we got through a big range of sets and the pictures are looking fantastic!

I cannot wait to work with him again (if he’ll have me ;) )

Had one of the best shoots to date with Tim recently. This shoot summed up all the reasons why you might want to shoot with Tim in one go.

Tim's art background provides him with endless inspiration for new shoot ideas. This time, his inspo came from a photo book of tribal decoration from many different parts of the world. As a result of this, we experimented with paint, clay, flowers, fabrics and created two amazingly unique looks! The shots we got are some of the most unique I have ever shot in my 10 odd years modelling.

It was also just such a fun time! Tim planned this to a T but let me also put creative energy into the transformations. It was super fun just getting creative with the materials he provided, and therapeutic too. This shows how Tim's approach to shooting is as much about the process as the result. This makes it a fun and creative experience rather than a production line of poses. :)

All the while, Tim made sure I was comfortably warm, well fed and was always respectful as well as lovely, as usual.

Thanks for a great shoot Tim!

Another lovely shoot with this lovely man!! This was a bit of an unplanned one as we only decided on the morning that we were going to go ahead and shoot. But the unplanned ones are sometimes the best ones - Tim’s house naturally lends itself to creativity, has loads of gorgeous natural light and interesting backdrops.

We began with a shower set - Tim had the idea of putting up black fabric behind the shower which worked really well, we then did some art nude and portraiture in window light, and finished up with some testing for a new idea using clay!

Tim’s shoots are always relaxed, creative, fun and uplifting, and no matter how many times we shoot, plan or no plan, we always come out with unique images and his ideas never ever run out, I always come away feeling in a positive mood and looking forward to the next one!

Thanks for another great shoot Tim xx

Yet another lovely shoot with my lovely friend Tim! We didn't really have a plan this time, but the ideas just kept coming! The highlight of this shoot for me anyway, was the bodyscape session.

I believe one of Tim's fortes is the bodyscape! He mentioned he'd not tried them that much, but he is brilliant at them, I think because of his ability to view the form from an artist's perspective, and capture many different interesting angles of a pose. Knowing that Tim can do this, I simply reclined on a sofa not having to worry about whether he'd capture my pose in a flattering way - in fact, he captured a single pose in a whole array of different ways I'd not have even thought of.

Tim had also sourced a beautiful top from ebay which made for some really lovely art nude images. Tim's place is just PERFECT for doing art nude - it provides so many different pools of nice natural light and interesting backgrounds, the inspiration there is endless.

Tim also helped me experiment with video on this shoot! He is always open to try new things, and will add a creative unique touch to any idea you have.

I was coming down with an illness on this shoot, but I'm so glad I went, because it took my mind off it - creating beautiful images and eating delicious healthy food in good company fended off my lurgy for at least the duration of the shoot! Thanks Tim for yet another brilliant shoot xxx

I stayed with Tim overnight as it was quite a trip from where I lived from Alton. He was very accommodating, and is sure to make sure you're comfortable. He was very attentive if I needed something and always made sure I wasn't hungry or cold! He was definitely a photographer I will not forget as I was so confident during the shoot as I knew I was in safe hands. He picked me up and dropped me off at the train station as well as made sure I had some snacks for when I got back! He is a very talented artist with amazing ideas and definitely shows a lot of passion and drive in his work.

Would definitely work with him again and highly recommend! Thanks Tim x

I had a lovely shoot with Tim today, and I love some of the images we created.

He is a really friendly, creative and talented photographer.

I would definitely recommended working with him for any kind of photoshoot and I hope to work with him again.

Had another lovely day out with Tim yesterday - this man knows so many beautiful locations that you'd never have thought of. This time we went to a quarry, the white sand and clear water made it look like a beach. Like always Tim thinks of everything and packed a picnic and a flask of coffee alongside some props to fit the location.

One thing that's great about Tim is his photography never stops developing. It's never the same and progresses each time we shoot - and we shoot every month!

On our last location shoot, there was harsh light and Tim wasn'thappy with how he'd shot it. Instead of avoiding it, and staying 'safe', Tim did some research and adjusted his approach and this time really nailed it. He slowed the pace of the shoot down so he could focus more on getting the perfect capture which helped me to also slow my posing down to focus more on the small details. I feel that some of the images we got this time were the best ones ever we'd shot on location.

I genuinely always look forward to and love working with Tim. His shoots are a relaxed, fun and creative experience always!

Had another wonderful shoot with Tim yesterday on location in a place called Frensham. One thing that is always brilliant about working with Tim is how many beautiful locations he knows of! He has painted in many of these locations so he already has an eye for the perfect spots within them. You're bound to get a unique set of images working with him on location.

Tim also thinks of everything and covers all bases to make a perfect day out of it - he packed us a lovely fresh picnic straight from his allotment and also brought a robe to preserve my modesty infront of passers by.

As I've said before, Tim is not afraid to think out of the box and experiment. He is definitely not a 'one-trick-pony' and always challenges himself with his photography. Instead of sticking in all the safe spots in this location, where he'd no doubt get lovely images but perhaps not anything as unique, he ventured into patches of harsh direct light, and took the time to figure out how best to shoot these areas.

The fact he is a painter and first and foremost looks at form, light, and shadow and less at just the model and background, really shines through when on location. Harsh light? No problem. Tim worked this INTO his images instead of fights against it, giving something really different and interesting.

Because of this approach, Tim's photography is always developing, and every single shoot we do is something fresh and new - this is saying something given we have done over 10+ shoots together! Time always flies by, as if I am simply spending time with a good friend and creatively enjoying myself. I always come away from Tim's shoots feeling more present, and very lucky to have the job I do.

One of my last shoots and it’ll definitely be a positive memory!

Tim is super lovely and professional and really generous(it is so nice to be fed homemade bread for lunch) The shoot was super relaxed and it went by really quickly(although I think I’ve earned my carrot cake ;) ) Thank you Tim for being such a great host & such a friendly creative soul ♥

Wow we finally got to shoot! Me and Tim have messaged here and there for ages! We both attended Shawns group shoot and it was such a good morning!

Tim is great! Very fun to be around, professional friendly and he had some really good ideas

Highly Recommended by me!

I hope we can shoot again :)

I say he is incredible all round. A great photographer and first of all a great person. we had a great time shooting and created some fantastic shots. Pre communications were good, 100% professional

This shoot was something really different for both of us! Tim and I shoot every month, and every month he manages to come up with completely new ideas. Being an artist, he is not afraid to experiment and shoots with Tim are more a creative adventure rather than a production line. This shoot was a testament to this!

Tim's house would soon be decorated, so we tested out some ideas for a painting and decorating theme. I was simply in a pair of baggy dungarees with a paint roller. This was a challenge for me because I usually use the curvature of my body to pull poses but in the baggy dungarees I was out of my comfort zone. Despite this, Tim's ability to see lines and shapes and interesting formations of shadow and light made for some really cool images, sort of using the paint roller as an extra straight line to add into the angular poses that he captured.

The second idea was using clingfilm! Tim had thought this out well to ensure I was comfortable and safe as I was to be completely wrapped in the film. He checked I was ok throughout the wrapping process and was always mindful of my comfort. The clingfilm created some really eerie effects and was something completely different for both of us. The beauty of this was though that Tim afterwards decided the clingfilm look wasn't for him as it felt sinister and creepy (I personally thought they were pretty cool!) but this didn't matter - as I mentioned, this is a creative adventure for Tim, and he doesn't mind if things don't turn out perfectly, it's in the process not the result. He said to me himself once when he was teaching me to paint and I was struggling with perfectionism.. "if it goes wrong its ok, we can just paint over it!". This is the same attitude he takes to shooting which is why shoots with him are always a pleasure, relaxed, creative and fun. I am pretty sure I will still model for Tim even when I am in a zimmer frame. :D x

Another fantastic 2nd shoot with this very talented photographer. He is very reliable and respectful. Always a pleasure working with him. Tim was so kind enough that he went out n got me my favourite drink n chocolate. I really enjoyed working with Tim. And I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Tim very kindly provided me with accommodation for a few nights during my Hampshire tour. He had prepared a lovely room for my stay, with all the amenities I could ask for, as well as lovely home cooked food every day. The comments about his amazing cooking in previous references are definitely not exaggerated!

We did two shoots during my time there, one on location and one in his home setup, he was polite and respectful throughout my stay and he produced some lovely images from the shoots.

I would definitely recommend him to travelling models, and I wouldn't hesitate to shoot with him again :)

Had another lovely shoot with Tim earlier this week. This time Tim went back to his artistic roots! He explored a new room to shoot in, and like always Tim saw captures in places I wouldn't even have thought of.

Things flow so smoothly when you are in Tim's artistic flow - the less I am in 'model mode', the better, and Tim is really talented in terms of capturing you as your natural self. Tim's shoots also encourage me to think out of the box and be creative with posing, you won't be stood there doing your standard S curve with your hands in your hair, for sure. :) This always makes shooting with him a creative experience rather than a normal shoot, which I love.

We then moved on to painting, Tim's forte! This is where he gets his attention to detail, and out-of-the-box approach to shoots. Holding a pose for a long time could be exhausting and uncomfortable but not at Tim's. He always has comfort in mind, makes sure it's warm and that you're ok in the pose, allowing you time to stretch out when you need it. His paintings are truly beautiful, too!! Honoured to be a part of them and thoroughly enjoy working with him always :)
