Had a lovely shoot with Kris.

Great communication beforehand and shoot was very well planned.

Shoot was very well set up and felt very comfortable at their studio.

Plenty of coffee provided and the shots are looking great.

Will definitely be working with Kris again

Third shoot for my daughter and I with Kris - this time at her home studio, following our second shoot together a few weeks prior on location at a local woods for a bluebell shoot. Kris is great at pre comms, with plenty of mood boards and examplar shots provided well in advance so we can bounce outfit, theme and pose ideas around beforehand. This was my first headshot shoot and gel shoot and Kris made me feel so comfortable and took the time to explain the set up and to show me plenty of back of camera shots as she tethered directly to he laptop. My 10 year old daughter adores working with Kris and her partner Mark who often assists with lighting. Kris is also always so quick with her turnaround of shots which are always just breathtaking. If you get the chance to work with Kris, I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Another awesome shoot with kris in the bag!

Kris was as lovely and accommodating as our first shoot. I find we gelled and flowed really well last time and we picked up right where we left off this time!

Something I love about kris that plucks her from the rest is the level of involvement in each shot that you get. I was fully informed, without being patronised, about each light set up and every technique that was being used - and to what aim.

If this lady approaches you about shooting - snap it up! You're in good hands (if you're new or experienced) you're in for good relaxed convocation and flow, and the photos are mint.

Thanks again kris! I'll keep em crossed for a 3rd!

Another great shoot with Kris, lots of planning beforehand as always. Kris shared her pinterest board with me and we referred to it throughout the shoot.

We were able to try everything we planned with ease and so far, excellent results. Kris was patient and understanding during the shoot and facilitated my work in the shoot.

Looking forward to shooting with you again, Kris!

My partner and I and my daughter did a shoot with Kris, assisted by her partner Mark. Excellent pre-shoot communications. Lovely venue arranged quickly by Kris and some really useful mood boards provided so we could agree a range of different looks for the 2.5 hour shoot. Managed to get two or three outfit changes each so a good 9-10 different looks tested out (I actually lost count). Back of camera looks great and already had an edited image back less than 12 hours after end of shoot! Looking forward to shooting again with Kris and Mark soon. Highly recommend

Had my third shoot with Kris, a lovely christmassy one! Although there were issues due to public transport on my side, when I got there we had a studio shoot that followed pinterest planning.

As usual, we had a great time, it was very easy to get comfortable and fluid with poses which allowed us to try everything we had planned.

I always enjoy shooting with Kris and look forward to doing so again in the new year.

just gotten home from an awesome shoot with kris today

we managed to cover 3 looks in 3 hours including a make up change. back of camera looks awesome!

kris is just a darling to work with, we gelled so well, shes a breeze to talk to, and her attention to detail is marvelous, i really feel like we got the best out of the location all thanks to her eagle eye for a good spot.

kris' comms are second to none, we were thorough on details and i felt completely looked after, while also given plenty of freedom. she was also a darling and gave me a lift to and fro the station!

thank you so much kris, i look forward to another any time!

Kris and I got in contact relatively recently , and started to talk about a shoot whilst she was in the area.She sent me a mood board to get an idea of what style we were going for, which made it easier to choose outfits that might work with the theme. It was soon set up, and took part in Bradfield woods owned by Suffolk Wildlife trust, which I’m a member of , so it was great to see another of the trusts properties. It’s a coppice wood, and they make furniture in an outdoor workshop , which we used to start the shoot off. We worked on autumn colours for my outfits and did a walking shoot around the wood. It was a lovely day, and we had a very relaxed shoot , allowing me to pose naturally, and we chatted about all sorts of things as we went around the wood. At various times as we walked about, we checked the back of camera images, and they looked really good. I’m really looking forward to seeing the finished images. I’d highly recommend Kris to any other models to work with.

I had a great second shoot with Chris, as always! Pre-shoot communication was consistent throughout, we both had a general idea of the intentions of the shoot and achieved a good flow of ideas both before and during the shoot.

Christine brought some very unique props that I was looking forwards to trying and replicating her vision. I thoroughly enjoyed experimenting with poses with the props and the results of that are excellent. Very much looking forwards to the autumnal shoot that we were discussing after we finished for the day, the both of us were making plans as we were packing away!

Highly recommend shooting with Christine.

I worked with Kris for the first time to day, I stepped in for a fellow modelling friend who has suffered a knee injury. The model herself recommended me for the shoot.

Considering the shoot was book in short notice, our pre communications were good, I knew exactly what was expected of me, where I needed to be and what time I needed to be there. It didn't stop me getting lost thought did it! So Kris came to find me and saved the day of course!

Kris set up quickly, knew how to light our location & model. Kris we actually very pleasant to be around/work with, we had a laugh while shooting while also taking our job seriously. Having seen the back of the camera, I believe we got something gooooood!

Over all the shoot went well and yes, I would recommend Kris.

Thanks for having me Kris :D

Had my second Shoot with Christine and loved every minute.

This lady makes you feel totally at ease and allows you to collaborate to get the best ideas from the shoot.

Shot at her home studio and we achieved a great mixture of images/styles in the couple of hours that we shot.

Lovely lady - highly recommended

Another amazing shoot with kris.

Fun in the mud.

She’s very good with attention to detail and guides me well. Kris has many ideas and is always prepared. She’s well equipped and has the strength to pull wellies off in sticky situations.

Recommended tog.

I met Chris through her partner mark. She attended our mini shoot in rendlesham forest. She and I shared similar ideas and thought. Chris took lovely photos as did mark In our spontaneous shoot. We have got other ideas for the future and I hope to work with her very soon. Fun to work with and a female photographer to keep a eye on.

Had the great opportunity to work with Christine tonight.

Lovely lady who kept me informed by showing me back of camera after each set we shot.

Direction was good along with the location

Really enjoyed our brief shoot and really looking forward to see the images big screen

First shoot for me in a while (in front of camera) where passers-by were making nice/polite comments.

Thank you and Mark for tonight.

Let's see what you want to try next ☺️

My first time shooting with Kris was fantastic!

Pre-shoot communications were more than perfect, we both shared a Pinterest board to make sure we were on the same page and had further discussions via messages. Kris picked a location that the both of us were familiar with and got some fantastic shots.

During the whole shoot, Kris made me feel very comfortable which allowed for our two hour shoot to flow very well with no hitches. The images that were produced are brilliant and I plan on shooting with Kris again soon!
