This was a shoot, for me a long time coming. Carla has been on my 'wish list' for a while now. Although it was a remote shoot, between herself & Adrian, they have a slick and professional setup, which works so easy and smoothly.

Carla was inspiring to work with, timeless look and flowing poses, well only in one hour I was able to come away with more styles and poses, than almost any remote shoot I have ever had.

Very talented and easy to chat to, and thanks to Adrian as well, overseeing everything.

Obviously I can highly recommend working with Carla. You won't be disappointed!

Great to end the year on a remote shoot with Carla and assistance from Adrian. Carla had one final slot in her diary for a remote shoot and even though it was just an hour, I knew with the great team of Carla and Adrian we could get through several looks in the short space of time. Carla, as ever, hit the poses, and Adrian provided lighting setup, adjusting frames, and banter.

I can highly recommend Carla both for in person and remote shoots (along with Adrian). You will have a great team to help you get great results.

Yesterday I had my first shoot with Carla. It was a remote shoot with a theme inspired by Brigitte Bardot and the 60s. I had got one of the last free slots of this month.

Carla had chosen typical outfits and the shoot could start on time. Adrian, her husband, took care of the technology, which worked super well. So Carla could concentrate on her styling.

In a short time she did several costume changes from the typical French 60s look to the leather suit to the look alike of the young Brigitte Bardot. In all stylings she looked great and expressive, presented her beautiful long hair in different ways and always managed to create the appropriate moods.

For me, this shoot was a fabulous experience.

Carla has a great modelling talent and can present herself very skilfully. She always looks very stylish.

The results I got are so good that it will take me a while to appreciate everything properly.

I highly recommend her. Many thanks to Carla and Adrian for this great shoot.

I would very much look forward to another shoot with different subjects.

I had my first shoot with Carla yesterday and like many others before me I find myself challenged to say anything that has not been already said about this beautiful model many, many times.

Elegant, stylish, creative and very hard working. Carla is full of ideas and collaborate and she has a fantastic wardrobe. Her pre and post shoot communications are exemplary. She is a professional model with seemingly infinite range of poses that all look fresh and original.

Carla is absolute delight to work with, and I could not be more pleased with the images we produced. I cannot recommend her enough and look forward to being able to organise an other shoot as soon as I can.

What can I say that hasn’t been said about Carla. I was privileged to have worked with Carla recently. Her pre and post shoot communications are exemplary. On set her styling is impeccable and likewise her infinite range of poses that capture the mood of the shoot.

My first remote shoot experience / highly recommended.

Looking forward to working with Carla again.

Huge thanks.

Had an photoshoot with the amazing Carla Monaco @carlamonacox in Swindon. It was a wonderful theme photoshoot organised by 'Adrian and Carla Creative Events'. The theme was 'Femme Fatale Hollywood Film Noir' style shoot. Carla had some gorgeous and amazing outfits and accessories. She has the perfect looks and natural expressions for this type of photoshoot and retro looks. Adrian @adriancrook was there to help with the lights and guidance if required. I got some amazing and glamorous images of the beautiful Carla. There were Christmas snacks and wine arranged for the event. I really enjoyed the event and had great fun. It was all Christmasy with a little snow outside. Many thanks Carla and Adrain for inviting me. Looking forward to many more shoots like this. Definitely recommended. This photoshoot is also available with remote shooting facilities hence please grab the opportunity to shoot with the gorgeous and stunning Carla.

My first shoot with Carla was an utterly awesome experience. She is graceful, beautiful, friendly and so totally professional. Nothing was too much trouble for her, and she was able to give me the look we had spoken about in pre-shoot communications with complete ease. Carla's posing is natural and unforced, and she was incredibly patient with my lighting tweaks and camera fiddling. This was a wonderful, productive, happy shoot and I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Just had a fantastic third shoot with Carla during her Scottish tour at Pavilion Photographic Studio. Third time's the charm so they say and they're not wrong. Every time I work with Carla I come away with even better images that the last shoot. She's an incredible model, professional to the max and an utterly lovely lady to work with. Can't wait to work with her again. Absolutely awesome!

A wonderful duo shoot with Carla and artemis in artemis home.

Having worked with Carla a couple of times before on events but this was my first time as a duo on a one to one basis with Carla so I knew what an awesome model Carla is.

Carla has a lovely friendly personality combined and with being a fantastic model you have the making of an excellent shoot and Carla certainty didn't disappoint she was awesome.

Working with artemis as a duo and on her own she nailed every shot.

Words simply don't say how good a model Carla is.

Thank you so much for a lovely day and a fantastic shoot.

Until the next time

Having just had 3 epic studio days with Carla and I even managed a quick shoot with her too, I just don’t know where to start with the glowing reference for her.

Whenever she comes to the studio I know we are in for a treat, her modelling is second to none and the amount of awesome shots you get making it hard to choose when it comes to editing and posting!!

Besides her modelling Carla is one of the nicest people you could meet, she is a genuinely lovely person who really takes an interest in you as the photographer and enjoys working with you to get the best shots.

It was an absolute pleasure to have in our home for a couple of nights too as she’s so easy going and even sat and watch a bit of the World Cup with us!

If you are lucky enough to get the opportunity to work with this lady you’d be a fool to miss out.

Look forward to her next visit in 2023

This was my 2nd shoot with Carla and my first shoot in the studio.

Carla is a real superstar and such a pleasure to work with.

She is extremely professional, hard working and really creative.

I can't wait to work with her again soon.

I had a wonderful shoot with Carla at Inspire Studios. It is difficult to find something to say about her that hasn't been said already. Carla is a lovely friendly person who handles her work superbly. Amongst other things we decided to shoot a sequence of 1960s themed fashion and nudes on Inspire's Infinity Cove, all of which were done beautifully. As a result I have a large number of very different images to add to my portfolio.

I will definitely be on the look out to shoot with Carla again as soon as I get the chance. It goes without saying that I recommend her without reservation but then the thousand plus references already tell you that.

Carla is a beautiful woman with a fabulous bubbly personality and a totally professional attitude to her work.

Thanks for the shoot.

What can I say but wow what a shoot. I have wanted to shoot with Carla for such a long time but only just managed a solo shoot this weekend. Carla is a true proffesional and this was probaly one of the best shoots I have had in a long time. We got through a large number of sets and Carla knocked each one out of the park. She made the shoot effortless with her skill and is such a great model to work with. Having struggled with my enthusiasm for studio photography for the last 8 month Carla has rekindled my passion again. Would I recommend Carla ? Too right I would 1000%. My advice to other photographers is find out where she is shooting and go, you won't be disappointed.

What an amazing model to work with!

Carla gives 100% to every aspect of the shoot.

She brought an amazingly varied wardrobe and we worked through several different sets and accessories.

She poses naturally and beautifully and moves effortlessly from one set to another.

I am already planning another themed shoot in my minds eye!

Very many thanks Carla - you are a star!

There is very little I can add to the other 1111 references this stunning model has. However after another amazing shoot at Inspire Studio during her studio day there I wanted to add my praise. There is no way I could be unhappy shooting with Carla as she is just a hard working and professional model but still friendly too. Carla is a a joy to photograph.

The only problem regardless how long the shoot is booked for, it is never long enough!

An Eye for Beauty

A shoot with Carla is one of the highlights of my photographic year, and I was so pleased that we were able to meet up again yesterday. It was our 26th shoot together so something must be good! Carla is just so versatile. We started with a couple of costumes from the production of 'Les Mis' for which she had done one of her amazing hair styles, went through fashion, jumpers and bikinis, and ended up with 'Miss Santa'! Carla is such a sweet and good natured young lady as well as being a terrific model. No airs and graces, she is very down to earth, willing to try anything, and carries with her a mode of quiet serenity and kindness. Now I look forward to my edits of what could well be the last shoot of the year. That in itself will be a delight, plus the expectation that we will meet up at least a couple of times in 2023. Thanks again, Carla. You are a one-off!

Oh wow. It’s been a little while since I last shot with the truly amazing Carla and I realise what I have missed. I was lucky enough to get booked in on Carla’s Studio Days at Inspire Studios.

It really was a most beautiful shoot producing absolutely lovely images. We covered a number of different styles from Hollywood to fashion to portrait and Carla was very happy to go along with my ideas (some slightly quirky) - and I really appreciate that.

Not only is Carla incredible in front of camera, but she has a beautiful nature and personality- absolutely fun and a pleasure to work with

I could go on forever but I’m sure it’s all been said before in the 1108 references prior to this.

To sum up - a wonderful couple of hours and many wonderful and varied images images to treasure

Many thanks Carla - hope to shoot again soon

Nick - a very happy photographer 😃

I had an enjoyable shoot with Carla at TBG studios. My plan was to practice lighting techniques I'd learned on a workshop. As I worked my way though my plans, Carla was able to deliver a great set of poses appropriate for each setup with minimum direction leaving me to focus on the technical side of things. I left a few hours later with loads of great images for me to work on.

After a break from photography, what a model to start back with. There is nothing I can say that hasn't already been said in 1106 previous positive references - but I'll try!

There is that old saying that you should never meet your heroes or those you admire as you will always be disappointed. In Carla's case, that couldn't be further from the truth. Carla is such a down to earth person, she immediately put me at my ease. We communicated well before, during and after the shoot - and it felt like working with an old friend.

As for her modelling - her ability goes without saying and there are few who can compare with her style, grace and beauty. We worked quickly through several sets and outfit changes and the number of editable shots passed 250 in just two hours - incredible. Carla is one of those few models who I would defy anyone to take a bad shot off.

I think you can tell I enjoyed our shoot - short though it was, and I will definitely be working with her again. 100% recommended by me.
