John and I had our second shoot last weekend when he came along to my aerial and more event at Inspire, and then stayed to shoot 1-2-1 with me afterwards. Just as last time, John's preshoot comms were spot on, he let me know items I needed to pack for his ideas and everything was sorted no worries. On the day he was super friendly and professional to work with, really enjoyed our shoot. We did a lot of en pointe and bendy shooting on our 1-2-1 and John was very considerate about organising the shoot so I had enough rest time. Recommended to other models for sure and hope we can have shoot #3 soon! :)

I had a fab shoot with John recently at Upper Mills Studio, Stonehouse. He was friendly and easy to get on with. We shot a range of outfits from Pin Up Dresses to lingerie including a look which appeared also Flamenco with the ruffles, hair flowers and fan. I really enjoyed creating some new looks with John. Our shoot was the right length and our pre comms were spot on too. John is a lovely guy and a great creative, the images are of good quality and proud to have them in my portfolio. I would love to work with John again and would definately recommend him to any model. Thanks for a great shoot John and some fab images! Mel x

Fantastic first shoot with John at home.

Turned up a little early for a cuppa and a chat. John is happy to go with the flow and is super chilled.

Very respectful and would highly recommend him to any model.

Thanks John

Met John at a recent group shoot and found him to be super friendly and smiley- really great chatting to him as well :)

Though our shooting time was short, the pictures looked good and I hope to shoot with him again soon!

Thanks again John,

I was a little bit unsure about shooting ballet poses because I was unfamiliar with the studio but John's images are fantastic. He looked at my profile and said to do ballet and I'm so pleased I trusted him. Thnx John

I met John for the first time today at a group shoot at Inspire Studios. We only had a very short time to shoot but from the word go John was professional and had a very keen eye to create some fabulous lighting effects!!!

John was polite, friendly and full of ideas and laughter!! I'd be very happy to work with him again and recommend :D

Shot with John today at Inspire Studio, he is a lovely, friendly guy and wants to get the best out of the shoot in the time we had. We decided on a pin up mechanic which the pics taken looked fantastic. Definitely recommended xx

I worked with John for the first time at Inspire studios recently, he attended a Rock chic group shoot I was modelling for.

John was a joy to work with, a total gentleman and over all a lovely guy. I look forward to hopefully working with him again soon.

Much love,

John attended my Rock Chic themed event at Inspire studios, he shot some brilliant images and really captured the theme well!

I couldn’t of asked for a better group of photographers everyone was kind, respectful and a pleasure to work with!

This was John's second visit to the studio and it was great to see him back and one of our events. He is such a lovely gentle guy and fits in easily with others around him. He is very knowledgable when it comes to lighting as well as photography and he is a pleasure to be around. Would definitely recommend him.

It looks like I have the honour of writing John’s 80 th reference!. In keeping with the previous 79 the feed back is as consistently positive. After a couple of delays we were able to fix a date and use to time productively to get through a range of looks. This is my fourth home shoot so it was pleasing that he was able to use the space and natural light in new and creative ways - his relaxed and adaptable approach gets the best from the model and setting as evident in his standard of work. I’m looking forward to seeing some of the images.

John replied to my casting when I was local to him and suggested booking a local studio. Communication was great and John is very knowledgable about his photography. We whizzed through 5 different sets , each very different from the last and he showed me images as we went. I’m looking forward to seeing the pics and would recommend John to anyone.

I had a lovely shoot with John in my new home yesterday. John had been here before so probably knew the place better than I did! Pre shoot comms were quick and painless, which is always great when things go smoothly like that!

In person, John is lovely! Friendly, chatty, good conversation - we laughed at my cat alot! We enjoyed a few nice cups of tea and worked on portrait, fashion and art nude style images. We did attempt to go outside but only managed a few minutes as the wind was blowing a gale and it was extremely cold. From what I saw on the back of the camera we captured some lovely natural light images. I'm really looking forward to seeing the final results.

Many thanks John - I hope we get to work together again soon!

Highly recommended.

I had an AMAZING fun packed two days at the lovely Pozers studio again recently! These were themed days based around the sensational "Dita Von Teese" Pin Up and Burlesque movement which I absolutely adore!

John was one of the kind photographers who booked onto the days event- and we had a blast! I love working with John on these Pin up style shoots as we share such similar passions. John is so kind, reliable and professional to work with and fit in really well with the group.

It was such a lovely day and I loved it so much that I am organising another few Dita Von Teese inspired days- this time with a MUA/Hair Stylist on board! So if you fancy a round two... ;)

I really hope we work together again soon and look forward to seeing the results! Thank You for a lovely day, Highly recommended to all, Helen x

Inspire Studios Ltd

This was John’s first visit to the studio and what a genuine lovely chap he is. He was very respectful of the studio and the model and made fantastic use of the space in his 3 hours at the studio. I would absolutely recommend working with John and hope to see him at the studio again.

It was my first shoot modelling for John after planning a shoot for a while, and it was a pleasure to work with him. Very respectful and polite and made sure I was comfortable throughout. Gentle direction and encouraged me to pose freely too. We both are avid vintage fans so it was great to work with someone who shares that vision and understands the era. Looking forward to the pictures which I know will be fab.

Helen Diaz

I LOVE working with John! John shares the same passion as I do for creating vintage style portraits, so it was really lovely to work together again!

John is professional, respectful and gives great direction. We created some gorgeous portraits using the natural light available- and my Walk in Wardrobe which is full of beautiful vintage garments!

The photos looked beautiful on the back of the camera and I am really looking forward to seeing more results. Thanks so much John and really hope to work with you again soon! Helen x

I wish more photographers would be like John

He responded to my casting at 10.30am, two messages and he was with me shooting by 1.30pm. Pure quality! The shots I’ve seen on the back of the camera are beautiful, with such a creative eye for detail. Highly recommended by me

The Snowdrop Studio

The lovely john attended snowdrop studios to shoot with the owner sarah 75. I cannot recommend john highly enough, utilised all the shooting spaces bedroom, shoe room, kitchen and finally we squeezed in the studio. The perfect gent and wonderful photographer ...look forward to seeing you back here in 2019 :0)
