I shot with David in the Peak District in the early hours of a Saturday morning and whilst I was tired and cold, together we managed to create some incredible shots and it was more than worthwhile to get the sunrise in the background.

David was very courteous in bringing along a hot flask of coffee to keep me warm and awake throughout the shoot. He is very easy to get along with and has a good sense of humour which kept my spirits up!

Really looking forward to seeing the finished results!

Thank you

I had worked with David a while ago so it was a lovely surprise to see him turn up as one of the members of a group I was modelling for last Wednesday! David is absolutely lovely to work with (as I'm sure I said in my previous reference for him!) and his pictures are lovely. He is great at capturing the image he wants (even when there is a time limit, as it was a group shoot!)

I would always recommend him as a photographer. I hope to run into you again at some point!

David and I been talking for quite a while on PP trying to organise a shoot together and today managed to do it - by pure coincidence! Met up at the Lakeside networking day - what a pleasant surprise it was to put a face to the name.

Absolute pleasure to model for David! Wish we could have a bit more time and fir this reason I can't wait to work together!!!

Great guy to talk to and very professional. Looking forward to our shoot, David!

I had the chance to work briefly with David for the first time last week at Studio Blanche in Cheltenham. What a lovely guy, very polite and friendly and extremely easy to work with. Pre comms were fantastic providing me a list of ideas and what to bring along for the shoot.

Its a shame we only had an hour as the shoot flew by very quickly.

I hope to work with David again before i disappear from the industry

Recommended by me

Thanks again David :)

My second shoot with David and it was great! Again he sent me a brief before the shoot so we were prepared and ready for what David wanted to shoot. Davids ideas were different to each other and although the weather stopped us from going outside even winging it worked out well with ideas bouncing all over the place. Although we got so much done in an hour slot it didn't feel rushed at all and was very relaxed.

I still very highly recommend him!

Yesterday's shoot felt like one that had been a very long time coming, but sprung up on us very suddenly! I had initial concerns after getting up at 3am for a sunrise shoot that David may have overslept however it was thankfully just a phone signal and road works issue and we were on our way to the first location in no time!

David had been and scouted out some of the locations beforehand so was super prepared for the shoot (which is really helpful when you have limited time to capture the sunrise!) We shot for a few hours over a couple of locations starting at sunrise and continuing on. David was really great to work with, knew exactly what he wanted but allowed me a lot of creative freedom over posing and was very sensible with realising what would and wouldn't be capable (and safe) in the locations we used!

Overall a really great shoot and I can highly recommend David to others

Thank you again (and can't wait to see the images!)

I had a great first shoot with David today on my studio day at Solo Studio. David was kind enough to email me prior to the shoot with a brief and was great at describing what he would like.

David turned up on time and had ideas already set. He was great at directing and we worked really well together. I had a blast and felt comfortable through out. We already have another shoot booked and I'm really looking forward to it!

David is a great guy, easy to get on with and I very highly recommend working with him if you get the chance!

I had a super two hour shoot with David just this morning!

David knew exactly what he wanted and had been very thorough in his pre comms about what images he had in mind.

In the two hours we fitted in a load if ideas, working together on getting them right and playing about with lighting. I'm really pleased with the results and look forward to seeing them go up on PP some time.

Thank you, David. Hope to work with you again :)

What a lovely man! I spent a happy (and very busy!) hour with Dave last week, and he was a pleasure to be with from start to finish. Well prepared, professional, thoughtful and courteous, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. He was also great fun to talk with. Thanks David!

Met Dave last night at my first ever group shoot at ESP and I must say, I absolutely loved shooting with Dave and the photographer that was also shooting next to him. They both gave such amazing and clear directions to me. They knew exactly what they wanted and this made it very easy for me to pose for them and give them the shots they wanted. Dave and the other photographer complimented me throughout which was very refreshing and reassuring to hear. They instantly made me feel relaxed. I've seen some of Daves photos from the shoot, where I was painted silver and implied nude and I am absolutely blown away. The images are stunning and I am so pleased with them. Dave is clearly a very talented photographer with great attention to detail. Hope to work with Dave again very soon.

David showed up right on time which was important for the location we were at

He had lots of good ideas and always made sure I felt comfortable during the shoot. He was polite and friendly. We hope to shoot again later in the year

Shot with David as part of my model weekend at sandon studio, and it was a real pleasure. David turned up on time, communicated his ideas clearly and easily, and brought some great creative energy to the shoot! His style is tasteful and and eye-catching, and his approach was focused but not too formatted, allowing us to get inspired and go ad hoc as well as being provided with a steady stream of brilliant ideas to work through. He has a real eye for composition and capturing a pose at its best, and from what I've seen so far, we have got some brilliant results. Thanks David!

David attended my Erotic evening shoot in October and so I had the pleasure of working with him again. I always enjoy working with David, he's smiley and relaxed with a great sense of humour. He's punctual, well equipped and open minded to trying new ideas.

On this particular event David showed how great he is working with others, pulling together with the other guys attending to get the best results out of the sets we shot and adding to the fun, vibrant atmosphere with his personality.

Thanks again David! I look forward to seeing the fantastic images created during the shoot and hope to have the pleasure of another shoot with him again soon.

So David came to my rope bondage and suspension studio day at The Natural Light studio. He arrived right on time and came well prepared. David was good in keeping in touch before the shoot and let me know some ideas he wanted to try on the shoot.

David was very easy to model for and he was so chatty and friendly. I recommend him to other models and I really do hope we get the chance to shoot together again soon.
