David took part in a duo shoot with Ashley Ashton and Antonia Jay in Chamonix, France which I facilitated. His pre shoot communications were great, and as it was a short shoot he was happy for the models to direct the shoot. After the shoot kicked off David began adding his own suggestions and the three of them worked well together. He was polite and professional with the models, remaining respectful whilst having a good laugh.

Definitely recommended from me, as always!

Thankyou for a lovely shoot!

The remote was hosted by "team black " and was an asolute credit to our event.

Gordon is always a treat to work with and i hope he got some nice images and that we can shoot again , at some point in the future.

Another remote shoot with David and yet again another lovely one it was! His pre shoot communications were excellent, sharing ideas and a mood board ahead of time so I had a good idea of what we were shooting during the duo shoot with Hattie Grace. He was polite and professional from the start, and was more than happy to go with the flow as well.

Having not worked with Hattie before, he put her at ease and we all got along wonderfully which really helped to get good shots. David always has unique ideas and strives to get the very best. He's an excellent photographer and is great at adjusting his settings accordingly whenever necessary.

We get along so well and captured some stunning images. The edits I've seen already look epic so I can't wait to see what else he does!

Thankyou for another wonderful shoot!

Hattie Grace

I had the pleasure of working with David for the first time last weekend on a remote shoot during my duo weekend with Angel Black. He kindly sent over a mood board with ideas beforehand so we knew the styles of the shoot. David is very professional, friendly and polite and was relaxed with Angel and I giving our own ideas and input too. I felt totally comfortable throughout the remote shoot and the photos he took are amazing! The three of us made a fantastic team and I can’t thank him enough for a wonderful shoot.

I highly recommend him to others and would certainly enjoy working with him again in the future.

Thank you :)

This remote shoot was a duo with Caitlyn J and from start to finish David's communications were exceptional (as usual!). He was quick to respond to my questions, and provided a little mood board of ideas for the duo.

During the shoot he communicated well and was happy to "go with the flow" as well as do some of the more planned ideas. He was a perfect gentleman, polite professional and friendly too. Caitlyn and I felt very comfortable in his presence and very much look forward to seeing his edits. It's always a joy to work with David, even if this time was short! ;)

I'd highly recommend David, he's a fantastic photographer and super easy to get along with.

Highly recommend, thankyou for a wonderful shoot!

Shot with Gordon via a remote studio set at Trident Studio, was so great to work with someone on the other side of the world so easily! Hehe. Off the bat he was incredibly friendly and chatty, and so easy to work with. Our slot absolutely flew by, and he made it feel really laid back and fun while giving good direction. Would highly recommend Gordon to anyone!

Team Black

We had the pleasure of assisting David during his remote shoot with Antonia Jay and as always it was a pleasure. He is a perfect gentleman - polite and professional with a friendly demeanour. David is always keen to hear his models opinions and is always looking to better his photography.

As always an absolute pleasure and we look forward to our next encounter! We'd happily recommend David to all creatives!

Team Black :)

Antonia Jay

Had a lovely time shooting remotely with David at Angel Blacks home with her assistance

I really enjoyed the shoot, David is kind patient and full of great ideas for shots.

Highly recommend

I absolutely loved meeting David after working with him remotely first! He is such a kind gentleman. David took me to a beautiful beach near Toronto and we shot some lovely images there. He was open to my ideas regarding lighting, outfits etc.

he also helped me a lot with transportation to my next shoot.

Thank you so much for the beautiful time and hope to see you soon!

Artemisian Luxury Photographic Holidays

We are just back from the latest Artemisian event- this time we all headed to Sicily (finally) after an almost four year postponement due to covid!!

The event was, yet again, incredible- and that's also thanks to everyone involved in the event- all the models, photographers and assistants made it so.

Stunning villa, street fashion, abandoned buildings, beach shoots, driftwood bays, themed shoots and a nod to the Godfather- we covered a lot, once again!

We had many challenges to face- the weather being the main one- oh and you know, the volcano erupting too. It was a totally freakish four weeks weather wise, sun, rain, wind and storms... but you know what- we all made it work, had a bloody fantastic time and created yet more life long memories despite all that- oh and thousands more breathtaking images too of course!! ;)

I say this each time but I am sure every trip becomes my favourite- just getting more and more nervous each time on how to keep improving- especially now I am running Artemisian alone- but I will always do by best :)

Anyway...

This event was David's first Artemisian- and I hope it won't be his last!

With the time difference, and everything going on back at home I am sure it probably wasn't the most relaxing time for David sadly, but once the coffee machine was conquered David settled in fast- getting on well with everyone and making everyone laugh and smile too :)

David was a great team player and fitted in well with the Artemisian vibe- he was happy to go with the flow, supportive and always full of kind things to say.

Thank you so much for choosing to come away with us David and you would be welcome back anytime!! Excited to see more results from the 6 days away :)

I was very lucky to meet and work David on a trip organised by Artemisian Luxury Photographic Holidays in Sicily!

David was an absolute pleasure to work with and to chat to ! Down to earth, kind and full of enthusiasm for photography and life !

Very highly recommended !

Artemis Fauna

Just a brief reference for everyone who photographed me on the latest Artemisian event to Sicily!

I don't want to repeat what I will write from the Artemisian account but from a model's point of view I had a fabulous time and am so pleased with the images I have seen from the event so far- I can't wait to see more!!

David and I had shot a few times remotely before we met in 'real life' and I was actually pretty excited to meet him! He didn't disappoint- he was fun to talk with, shoot with and also listened to the advice I had to give for getting the best shots.

I really enjoyed David's company- just wish we had a bit more time to chat but of course, I wasn't just modelling in Sicily- I had to do a lot of other things ;)

I hope to continue shooting with David- remotely and in person- he is a very kind and thoughtful man indeed. :) Thank you David :)

Another lovely shoot with Gordon!

I was back at the same apartment in Edinburgh that we worked together at last year, and I'm starting to feel it's becoming tradition to shoot with each other in February each year haha!!

Gordon is a very friendly, chatty person and is super easy to work with! He gives direction when needed and explains what he is looking for well.

Hope to work with him again in the future and highly recommended by me :)

Elle J

I have worked with Gordon on several occasions remotely and each shoot I have enjoyed.

Gordon is creative, fun to work with, friendly, polite and respectful. He is really easy to work with and is able to communicate well what he would like as well as be open to ideas from the model too.

Each shoot I have enjoyed and I hope we get to work together again in the future. I would recommend working with him. Thanks so much Gordon!

Angel Black UK

Gordon and I have had the pleasure of working together on many occasions now, albeit remotely. As always he is polite, professional and friendly - super easy to get along with and the images that come out of the shoots are always fantastic. He's a talented photographer in his own right, and is more than happy to take in my ideas.

The most recent shoot we did was part of a duo day with myself and Ashley Ashton, and from start to finish he was a joy to work with. I would absolutely recommend him!

Thankyou for a fantastic shoot!

I had another fabulous 1-2-1 remote shoot with Gordon at my Edinburgh apartment! It had been almost a year since our last remote shoot so was lovely to catch up and we did some different styling to our first one too :)

Gordon is incredibly friendly and gives direction well, it’s been a pleasure getting to know him remotely and hope to work with him again in the future!

Angel Black UK

Gordon is an absolute joy to work with, albeit remotely. He's so professional and friendly with conversation easily flowing. He took part in a remote shoot duo with myself and Amber Farndon in our Villa in the Canary Islands, tethered to him in New York. He communicated his ideas across ahead of time in a clear way which made the packing process so much easier. During the shoot itself he was keen to listen to our ideas as well as interpret his own - he truly is such a gentleman, its a pleasure to shoot with him.

I'd definitely recommend Gordon and wouldn't hesitate to work with him again in the future.

Thankyou for another amazing shoot!

Summers Abroad

Gordon attended our 'Shadow of a Doubt' event remotely alongside another photographer, sharing their time as they would have done in person.

After a few hiccups getting started they got to work with all the models attending the event. Unfortunately due to the technical difficulties with Wifi they were unable to explore the manor and shoot in the different rooms available so instead we set them up in the room that worked and brought all the different sets to them so that they still got variety with each model :)

Gordon was incredibly understanding and managed to get some wonderful images from the event regardless. It as a pleasure hosting him remotely and we hope to host him on another event next time without any technical hiccups haha! Happily recommended :)

Gordon and I have arranged a few remote shoot now and this past Saturday he joined me for a remote duo day with Mia_UK. His pre shoot communications were excellent, well thought out and gave us a baseline idea of what he wished to achieve throughout the shoot.

During the shoot itself, he was polite and professional, very thoughtful of us as models and very friendly - conversation easily flowed. I'd highly recommend Gordon, and look forward to any future shoots :)

Angel :)
