I did my second shoot with Josie today. Again, she was absolutely brilliant in every respect. Creative, fun, bubbly with a great selection of outfits, bags of confidence and that certain something I just can't put my finger on! Josie is rapidly developing into one of my favourite models and people!!

I can not recommend Josie highly enough. She is an absolute natural and such fun to work with. Book her while you can, you will not be disappointed.

We arranged a really short notice shoot (all arranged within 72 hours or so)... Josie's comms are spot on and we even managed to collaborate on a pinteret mood board so we knew what we were aiming for.

Josie arrived on time with everything she needed and was raring to go... after being slobbered on by the dog and terrorised by the toddler we settled down to shoot.

She's just fab... she laughs at all my jokes and whilst needing no direction takes suggestions effortlessly. We had a fab shoot and shot 3 or 4 sets in a couple of hours.

Hopefully we won't wait another 2.5 years between shoots next time!

Thoroughly recommended... thanks Josie!

I had a short but productive shoot with Josie last weekend. We drove around in Westbury looking for some interesting scenery. I have to say Josie is very enthusiastic and joy to work with. Rain or sunshine, she is happy to be outdoors - she didn't mind the cold wind at all during the 2 hours. Unfortunately we ended the shoot with a bit of a panic as I briefly misplaced my car keys but Josie was really understanding about it. Hope to work with you again after you come back!

Second shoot today with Josie after nearly 2 years and I had forgotten about her warmth, chattiness and commitment. Pre shoot comms were quick and efficient. Josie arrived on time with plenty of clothes. Although it was cold she was prepared to stay still while we bagged the shots. It was a derelict site and not the safest place in the world but Josie was determined to explore and find some great places to shoot.

Josie was expressive and used her dance skills to throw some perfect shapes. She is even light enough to carry over boggy ground.

It was a real pleasure to work with her again, even is she does eat a full meal and a whole Eton Mess in the pub afterwards!

Definitley recommended. thanks Josie.

Had a great, sunset shoot with the very lovely Josie, clearly the dance and entertainment training means that she is an excellent model with thoughtful poses. Josie was cheerful despite me dragging her across muddy fields to get 'the shot' which we did.

Highly recommended, look forward to shooting with her again. :-)

What a bundle of fun! Josie and I had the most fun on a shoot today that I can remember for a long time. Totally professional but with a twist of excitement (and the odd giggle) we had a tremendous shoot and we got some amazing images. Josie has now imprinted One Direction's "Best Song Ever" indelibly into my brain!!! ......and I really don't mind!

Josie has a very professional attitude but also knows how to have a bit of fun on a shoot. So much so that I would like to shoot her again as soon as she is back from the Med later this year. A great laugh, a great shoot and a great person to boot. Josie gets my very highest recommendation.

We have had a superb photo shoot with Josie. She arrived on time, well prepared with plenty of enthusiasm, positive energy . She can pose undirected and she is very easy to work with. Great communication and fantastic sense of humour are yet another qualities. We can honestly recommend her to anyone :)

Josie and I had a little play together today and I must say she was utterly brilliant. Top level professionalism, wonderful attitude and most informative on the science of retinal anomalies. The only problem is that she was so much fun to work with we probably spent more time laughing (and pandering to my habit of talking complete rubbish) than shooting.

Highly recommended. Highly.

Josie is one beautiful, smart, talented bundle of fun! I didn't give her too much of an idea of how to style for the shoot but she still came up with the perfect outfit. The shoot was late(ish) afternoon and set 5 minutes from where Josie lives in beautiful English countryside. She looked perfect in this setting but I've no doubt she would in any setting. Really happy with the pictures and would hope this is not the last shoot I have with Josie. Would recommend 100%

Just had a great shoot with Josie at New Upper Mills studio. Josie really is a fantastic model who is fun to work with and has a great personality. She is very professional, with excellent pre-shoot communication, and bought along exactly the type of outfits I'd asked for before the shoot.

She looked stunning throughout the shoot, posed effortlessly and made really good use of the studio features. She was also very inventive in her use of props and worked really hard to make sure I got the shots I was looking for, Definitely very highly recommended and I certainly hope to work with her again.

Josie is by far one of the best models I've worked with. She's incredibly professional but also manages to incorporate as much fun as she can into the shoot - which definitely keeps spirits high! Our last shoot was outside in -3 degrees and she did not complain once, she gave her all to ensure I got the shots I needed.

She is happy to pose with little to no direction, and holds herself in a way that comes across as effortlessly beautiful through the camera. She is also full of ideas herself when it comes to different shot ideas, which is always welcome.

She is a beautiful, hard working, positive individual and I would highly recommend her to anyone

I have been trying to get to shoot with Josie for ages and thankfully our diaries finally matched up - and the wait was well worth it.

Great pre-shoot comms and she came fully prepared for all the ideas we had discussed. Josie follows direction brilliantly, can pose on her own and works with you to get the image you are after.

Beautiful, hard working, professional and great fun to work with - highly recommended and I will be looking to work with her again

Josie came along to our studio today and this was the very first time I had the pleasure of meeting this beautiful young lady. Josie was puntual and prepared on arrival, with a large suitcase full of goodies. Her laugh was contagious and her personality was as stunningly beautiful as she is. She worked exceptionally hard and was a very positive model to be around, she was directed with ease and she knew her poses and what worked for her. Josie is one of those models who brings everything to the table, works hard to get that perfect shot, whilst making the shoot really enjoyable. I believe that Josie will be a hit with our photographers and it would be an absolute pleasure to see her back in the very near future. I would highly recommend Josie to all industry creatives and studio owners, not only a pleasure to watch, but a pleasure to be around.

This was the second time I've worked with Josie... the first as it happens was my first outing with a Camera so it was very brave of her to allow me another go lol!

We shot at VanEyke's place and we really just went with the flow.., Josie is very easy to work with, great company, very relaxed and willing to try some of my weird ideas .... we got some great images and some amusing ones too

I'd happily work with Josie again Highly recommended!

Today I had my first shoot with the lovely Josie. From the very start I found her to be really down to earth and such good fun. The plan for the day was to try and capture some lifestyle with a touch of winter fashion, and with Josie’s outfits choices and perfectly natural looks, I think we managed to come a way with some cracking shots.

Put simply, Josie is a huge talent… professional, easy going, intelligent, well prepared, a great conversationalist, funny, and of course, stunning; this young lady has it all. If I have managed to capture just a tiny essence of what Josie is about then I will be very happy indeed.

I will certainly be booking Josie again in the not too distant future. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I met Josie at a vintage wedding shoot on Sunday at a beautiful hotel location in Salisbury. I was quite nervous as i have never really worked with other models before but Josie and i got on so well! She is a beautiful model who pulled off every look she was given. She was very professional but we also had a few giggles too! I would love to work with Josie again and would definitely reccomend.

I worked with Josie on Sunday for a vintage bridal shoot and I'm glad I asked her. Good comms before hand and right from the start she was keen to get the best possible shoots. Good fun to work with, but professional at the same time, the perfect balance.

Had two other models, a makeup artist and the bride dress maker all on the same shoot and Josie bonded with everyone from the start.

Got the concept of the shoot from the word go and needed little to no direction. Simply a pleasure to work with right up to the last shoot. Looking forward to working with Josie again. Highly recommended.

I worked with Josie on a vintage bridal shoot in Salisbury and found her to be very easy to talk to, professional, hardworking and bubbly. I was a makeup artist for the shoot and she sat beautifully for me. Her beautiful face made it a pleasure to apply makeup. She has such a versatile look and I can see a lot of different looks working on her face, from the most natural 'barely there' to the boldest looks, there's nothing that wouldn't suit her! She is an all round lovely girl and it was great to work with her. She showed a genuine interest in all the people involved in the shoot and their work. She is a natural model and I am happy to have pictures of her in my portfolio. So I would definitely recommend!

I had to pleasure of working with Josie on a extremely challenging location shoot. It involved hours in the freezing cold river, then even more time in the rain, only to go back into the river. With steely determination Josie pushed through the discomfort, together with the rest of the www.lunaesque.com team, we made some incredible images of a magic world brought to life somewhere in the remote part of Devon. I don't know many people who would have got through this set without a single complaint, she was an absolute pleasure to work with and I am sure, that we will be all meeting up to create another fairy tale :) Josie - thank you for your guts and sheer spirt in grasping the moment and doing your best no matter what.
