I worked with Donald during my mammoth Scottish tour recently and had such a blast!

Donald had booked me at the beautiful Pavilion studios for half a day and it was our first time working together! :)

I am always a little nervous but from the offset Donald was such a sweetheart to work with and talk to; a kind and gentle giant with a heart of gold. Donald is extremely considerate and just a joy to work with.

I instantly felt comfortable in Donalds company and he was such a gentleman. He gives great direction but is equally happy for the models input. He is also extremely humble and doesn't realise his natural talent for photography which is very endearing.

The shoot was very productive but relaxed with plenty of breaks and the results looked really beautiful. I really look forward to the uploads.

Donald is one of the kindest photographers I have met in photography and comes with the highest recommendation to other models.

Thank You so much Donald and I really do hope we get the opportunity to work together again, Helen x

I enjoyed my first shoot with Donald yesterday working on some timeless, vintage, classic art nudes and erotic images in a hotel shoot in Perth. Donald is a wonderful, friendly, professional photographer and a lovely person as well. I found him very easy to engage with and bounce ideas back and forth. Communications leading up too and during the shoot were terrific and he gave me a very enthusiastic, detailed description of exactly what he wanted to achieve from our shoot. I also loved his attention to detail. He brought along a selection of vintage items also and provided me with snack bars, water and tea/coffee. A complete gentleman with an eye for taking beautiful images.

I highly recommend working with Donald to others if the opportunity arises.

I really look forward to working together in the future.

Thank you.

I had a fantastic shoot with Donald on Tuesday.

As ever, Donald was a true gentleman throughout the shoot. He has a real passion for photography and creating beautiful images - and this makes my job great fun and very rewarding!

I have seen a couple of our photos and they are beautiful.

I would highly recommend Donald to other models.

Hope to be working together again soon!

Thanks again Donald.

I had such a wonderful shoot with Donald today, what a genuinely lovely person....

So easy going, polite, respectful, appreciative of the model and just a pleasure to work with.

He knew what he wanted before the shoot and we discussed the ideas and the 2 hours just flew by and we got some beautiful images.

I really enjoyed my shoot with Donald and certainly recommend him to any other models.

Thank you, Tillie x

I had a lovely shoot with Donald recently at Pavilion Studios. He was completely professional, very friendly, kind, considerate and easy going. We covered a range of lighting styles and looks, and Donald captured some beautiful images. I can happily recommend him and would certainly work with him again.

Every chance I get to work with Donald I take it, he is one of my favourite people to work with. I was very lucky to get to work twice with him last week doing boudoir and art nude. Donald is one of the loveliest people around and an excellent photographer. He is unfailingly polite and a gentleman which is so rare to find these days. He is constantly improving and learning as he goes and is a model of professionalism. I only wish all photographers would respect their models even a fraction of how Donald does.

I had a fantastic shoot with Donald the other week shooting boudoir styles in a lovely hotel. He was a great person to chat to which made the day very relaxed but you can tell he is also passionate about the styles he shoots which made the day very productive as well.

Would totally recommend Donald to anyone and hope to work again with him in the future.

Had a shoot with Donald in a lovely hotel in Newcastle last week, it was such a good shoot. We were able to arrange everything easily and quickly and as soon as I met Donald I felt totally comfortable with him and was like we'd known each other years, easy to talk to and get along with.. a genuine, lovely guy.

I was able to see the images that were taken on the computer screen and I absolutely loved them, Donald is a great photographer and I loved his ideas too.

I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Donald to anyone and look forward to another shoot with him soon.

Thank you, Amy x

I had a shoot with Donald at my home and really enjoyed it.

He was extremely respectful of me and my home, had his camera linked to his laptop so I could see what the images were coming out like and we got some great shots!

I felt totally comfortable around him and he was extremely easy to talk to.

Loved working with him and we are already planning our next shoot :)
