Aron and I agreed to shoot at my home for his brief. He was professional with his communication and advised he would bring his lovely wife along to act as assistant. They where both professional in their ways and actions and a lovely couple indeed, I was very happy to have them there. We had lots of fun bringing about Aron's desired images and they certainly arrived with lots of equipment and props....cake included ! I look forward to working with their demeanour again and of course very curious about our images although we did view them as we went a long looking for potential improvements. Thank you Guys !

Wonderful to see Araon and Helen at the studio for baldbraveandbeautiful's event. They came well prepared for their time here and it was a delight to host them. Really looking forward to seeing them back in the studio some time.

Araon and Helen came back to Basford Hurst Cottage today for another shoot. All pre comms were great and they both arrived on time brimming with ideas for a fantastic shoot ahead!!! This time Helen stepped in front of the camera from the start and we worked through many different outfits and looks.

This time we chatted a lot about bringing the ideas we have in our heads to life, and portraying those through the images... Discussing what stories we wanted to tell and the sort of emotion we wanted to bring to the images ... Helen took all of this in her stride once more and created many wonderful images!!

The latter part of the shoot we decided to do a duo with myself as a more androgenous figure and Helen as the belle of the ball - We used the natural light to create some really stunning moody images together and then had a go at creating some symmetrical shapes in the drawing room!! It is so wonderful to model alongside another beautiful lady who happens to be the same height as me too!!!

All the way through Araon was working hard behind the camera, working from lots of different angles and bringing his own ideas to the shoot as well!! He even tethered up the camera to the laptop this time which was extremely helpful for reviewing images and making changes where needed!!

All in all a fantastic shoot and I very much look forward to seeing Araon and Helen again soon!! Thank you so much guys!!! :D

An absolute pleasure to welcome Araon and Helen back to Basford Hurst Cottage today for another shoot day, incorporating some model training with Miss C.

As always, Araon and Helen arrived on time, loaded with outfits and inspiration for lots of great images!! After a coffee and a natter about the shoot ahead they all had plenty to work with!! The back of the camera looked great and as always Araon and Helen were a joy to have around and work with.

We would highly reccomend Araon and Helen and really look forward to seeing them again soon!! Thank you both!! :D

Araon attending a bodypaint workshop hosted by Shapeshifter studios with myself as the model. This was my second shoot with Araon and it was a pleasure to see and work with him again.

Araon is easy to talk to and work with and got on well alongside everyone else who was there that day. He was happy to listen to and advice from Ben about lighting and was very patient when it came to any adjustments to the body paint / make up throughout the event.

I would highly reccomend Araon and was so pleased to see images from yesterdays shoot appearing today already!! Thank you Araon, see you soon!!

Aaron booked a slot on my headdress heaven group shoot at PGD and it was a delight to have him along.

He was friendly and respectful throughout the whole shoot and worked well with everyone else in attendance.

I would be more than happy to have him on my next shoot and work with him one on one.

Having met Araon and Helen at a shoot organised by PGD I was absolutely thrilled when they asked if they could come and shoot with me at Basford Hurst Cottage for the day.

We worked through a range of different styles, covering classy dress's and elegance, all the way through to a gothic vibe. All the way through Araon and Helen allowed me to pose freely and bring my own ideas to life but also had plenty of inspiration and exciting ideas of their own. I felt completely comfortable working with the two of them and the back of the camera looked amazing!!

During the shoot Helen was keen to have a go at some modelling herself, so it was a real privilege for me to help guide Helen through her first time on the other side of the camera. We worked through some basic posing and by the end of the shoot it was so lovely to see Helen relaxed and putting into practice what we had spoken about. We also got some great duo shots which I am excited to see!!

All in all a wonderful day with great company and I very much look forward to seeing Araon and Helen again soon!! Thank you both!!! :D

Araon and Helen came to Basford Hurst Cottage to shoot and work alongside studio owner Leanne (Miss c).

Throughout their time at Basford both Araon and Helen were incredibly polite, friendly and easy to get along with. They were completely respectful of our location and made sure to ask if they needed anything.

It was a very successful shoot and we look forward to welcoming Araon and Helen back again soon!! Thank you both!!! :D

Had my first shoot with Aaron on Tuesday which we had booked as a mother and daughter Christmas shoot and he did not disappoint! He had the patience of a saint as my little girl wouldn’t play ball with us on the shoot unfortunately but he still managed to get some good shots!

Aaron is professional, organised and knows what he wants to achieve! We got some amazing shots and I look forward to working with him again!

Cannot recommend him enough! Really lovely guy and knows how to work the camera!

Thank you again Aaron!
