The theme of the shoot was "Uptown Girl...Downtown", inspired by the US west coast, Midwest abandoned building genre contrasted with and in tension with a classic chique fashion look. The outfit was pre-planned and agreed between Olivia and myself well in advance of the shoot. Olivia's communications were excellent.

Olivia immediately understood exactly what was required from a written brief. Her formal training in performance and dance further aiding our planning and communications. The shoot took place on a busy street in an urban environment utilizing studio flash balanced with daylight in order to achieve a synthetic "Pop Art" result.

Once the equipment had been set up Olivia freestyled a number of very appropriate poses which were relevant to the overall concept. Very little direction was required on my part once the shooting was underway. Again I put this down to her professional training and experience. The shoot went like well organised clockwork with absolutely no issues.

Olivia is a wonderfully gregarious person with a well balanced sense of fun and work ethic. We discussed future possible projects and I am certainly looking forward to shooting with Olivia again in the near future.

So thank you Oliva and very well done!

This is the second time I have had the pleasure to work with Olivia. As always, pre-shoot communication was excellent, and she turned up ahead of time with plenty of outfits for the shoot. She posed beautifully on a cold March afternoon beach shoot on the south coast, and didn't once complain about the chilly conditions. We got loads of great shots which I hope Olivia is proud of too. Olivia is a professional, hard working model with a can do attitude. I 100% recommend Olivia to any photographer.

I recently had the pleasure of collaborating with Olivia after responding to her casting call. Our shoot took place just a few days ago, and I must say, Olivia's professionalism truly stood out. True to her bio, Olivia arrived promptly and came fully prepared with flawless makeup, ready to dive straight into the shoot.

I had envisioned a series of sets with a simple white background, inspired by ideas I had gathered from Pinterest. Olivia not only embraced these concepts but also brought her own creative flair to the table. Her keen eye for style led her to choose outfits that perfectly complemented the aesthetic we were aiming for, utilizing the Pinterest board as a helpful reference point.

With Olivia's background in dance, her ability to strike captivating poses was nothing short of impressive. Her grace and fluidity added an extra dimension to our images, resulting in some truly remarkable shots that I'm excited to showcase in my portfolio in the weeks to come.

Based on our successful collaboration, I have no hesitation in highly recommending Olivia to fellow photographers and creatives alike. Her professionalism, creativity, and positive energy make her an absolute pleasure to work with. I'm eagerly looking forward to our next project together!"

I am delighted to have met this lady. She was immaculately presented and absolutely stunning. I had an amazing time with her, dodging the showers for three hours. She is a very accomplished model who knows how to pose and present herself, which made my work much easier. I have spent the last hour looking at the images we took together; almost all of them are fantastic. Choosing which ones to edit will be a tough decision. She never failed to impress me with how creative she was and was happy to try all sorts of styles.

Oh did I not say what a beautiful figure she has no doubt being a trained dancer has helped her. I would love to shoot here again and I would encourage any photographer to book this lady, she is one face you must have in your portfolio.

Thank you for your time, highly recommend, see you again very soon. Thank you Olivia

Wow! - whatever they're giving her, can I have some too?!

Pre-shoot Olivia's comms were spot on, from agreeing timings, themes, and to outfit selection concise detailed and timely.

On the day - the rainiest and nastiest day imaginable - Olivia didn't so much as come in out of the rain but her huge smiling grin came flooding into the studio and she danced (literally) in after it (and didn't really stop for the next 4 hours!)

Very bubbly, chatty, patient with a bumbling idiot photographer and everything else you could want from a model - and wow she's beautiful!

100% recommended - I'm only ashtonsished that we'd not shot before.

Hello again..! I could not let too much time pass without shooting Olivia again..

This time we went to Chichester Marina, the weather was kind, almost perfect you could say and after a quick coffee off we went.

It always takes me 10 minutes or so to get into the 'flow' but after that it is just fantastic, Olivia always tuns up before time immaculately presented with a case full of clothing etc..we did a few changes today and both were done speedily with no drama..!

she has just amazing energy and a positivity that is hard to explain unless you have worked with her, every minute is just such a joy to be around her.

She obviously has her serious posing look, but when you want some candid shots she has too be the best..!!

I thoroughly enjoyed this session and came away with more keepers than ever before..

fantastic work Olivia and thank you for another amazing shoot..

Until next time...!

Did I have a good shoot with Olivia..?

How did this gorgeous, beautiful, professional, fun, creative young lady slip past my radar for so long..

It was the most incredible 4 hours. I had decided to do a location shoot at Old Portsmouth and was quite concerned that there wasn't going to be enough "places" to shoot.. I was worried about the weather, what Olivia was going to wear and even if I was going to get there, my 2 trains were cancelled in a row.. I arrived 10 min late but was greeted by a beautifully dressed happy Olivia..!!

We soon set off, I had to recover for 10 min as had been running from train station, I don't run much these days..!! and were soon shooting everywhere, we stopped for 2 coffee breaks right on the waters edge watching the tall ships and cross channel ferries go past. This lady is just fantastic and knows exactly what to do..makeup, hair, nails, clothing, everything just perfect.

Olivia's laugh is also very infectious..!!

I can not think of how this day could have been improved...

quite simply, the best shoot so far..!!

Thankyou so much Olivia, until next time....

Had the absolute pleasure of shooting with Olivia at Fareham Studio and it was a fantastic experience !!

Pre comms leading up to the shoot were informative and Olivia arrived in good time with bags of energy and enthusiasm ready for a busy shoot, the shoot itself went exceptionally well and we produced some stunning images 🙂

Really looking forward to working together again, well recommended x

Had my second shoot with the delightful Olivia, a location shoot with Olivia coming up with the perfect places to shoot.

Olivia is a beautiful and hard working model who poses effortlessly and has plenty of her own ideas.

She is a down to earth smashing young lady and is a pleasure to work with.

I highly recommend her and am looking forward to our next shoot.

Until the next time many thanks Olivia and take care.

Having met Olivia in the studio a few times before, this was the first time we had shot together. What a way to finish off the year. Olivia is just a thoroughly beautiful person, beautiful personality, beautiful heart, beautiful looks. The shoot was relaxed and slow moving, as I like it. The conversation flowed so well. We discussed ideas and they just came to life. Olivia turned up spot on time with a good selection of outfits. It was nice to do things that are not on her portfolio. It was the type of shoot that could of just gone on for ever. There is a sense of deep satisfaction when you complete such a shoot with such a fabulous model.

Olivia removed her make totally for the last set and she has just such a beautiful look, I really think I prefer her natural look, with fabulous freckles.

I hope and I’m sure we will shoot again. If you have not shot with Olivia, make it a point for 2022.

Thank you Olivia for giving me an end of year boost.

Highly highly recommended, just fabulous.

Brilliant shoot today, our second outing together. Cannot recommend this young lady highly enough, she puts in maximum effort & is always cheerful. Shot a great set of images today & I am very grateful. I am trying to think of another theme so we can work together again.

Had a first shoot at Fareham Studio with OliviaGrace.

What a lovely person and superb model Olivia is, arrived in bags of time, plenty of outfits, and ready to go. Part of the shoot was for me to get rid of bad habits with catchlights, so Olivia was left waiting from time to time whilst the matter was discussed with Andy the studio owner, never once did a bored expression appear.

Two hours wizzed by with strobe and natural light shots, Olivia is a great person to work with, great chats, and a real natural.

Totally recommended

My third shoot with OliviaGrace and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She always arrives early for the shoot and her pre-comms are brilliant.

We discussed the theme and Olivia brought a super selection of colour co-ordinated clothes.

She works very hard to achieve her absolute best look in every image.

When I showed her some shots from the back of the camera, she wanted to take the series again because she wanted to change one aspect of her look to camera. A most welcome input indeed.

Her outlook is always very positive and we came up with some impromptu ideas on the day, responding to the conditions of the outdoor shoot, that worked very well indeed.

Very many thanks Olivia, it is a pleasure to work with you again.

I contacted Olivia, in the hope that she would respond, which of course she did. Although we had never met, I could see that Olivia lived in the same vicinity. I have a purpose-built home studio, which has been sitting idle since December, due to covid and lockdown restrictions and I was keen to start using it.

Olivia's communication was pretty much spot-on, we agreed a time and date then settled for a four hour session, which would give us time to have several changes of set-ups, costume changes and a few breaks.

Well, what can I say, Olivia turned up on time, in full make-up and a bulging suitcase full of clothes.

We hit it off from the start, she has a fantastic slim physique - which she says is natural and therefore doesn't need to spend days on diet and fitness! Even her best friends must dislike her for that? Only kidding... She is lovely, great fun and easy going. It was uncanny that as we were reviewing each set of images on my laptop, we both liked the same ones.

I am delighted with the results of the shoot and will start to publish images in the coming days and weeks.

Although this was Olivia's first shoot in quite a while, she quickly got into her posing routine. She doesn't need direction but is open to the photographers ideas.

I loved this shoot and would highly recommend any photographer to work with this really lovely lady. I for one, would love to work with her again.

My second shoot with Olivia was simply brilliant. We had discussed themes in pre-comms and Olivia brought along a stunning array of colourful clothes which were perfect for what we wanted. Olivia is a joy to work with - her poses and look to camera are effortless and her creative input and ideas were much appreciated. Very highly recommended indeed.

I had the pleasure of working with Olivia tonight and must say it was a pleasure. She was very punctual with the start time of the shoot and came prepared in her first outfit and makeup done.

Her communication was brilliant throughout, from arranging the shoot, during and finalising.

Was nice to shoot with someone who had visions of what images she wanted and working with me well showing me a mood board she had put together.

Olivia shows great confidence in front of the camera and makes the job so easy.

I would highly recommend Olivia to all photographers and I will be working with her again.

Thank you for a great shoot.

Had my first ever shoot with Olivia and this will definitely not be my last. What a wonderful human being she is, great bubbly personality and was great that we both have the same sense of humour.

Olivia is a true professional, arrived early with her makeup done to perfection and the first outfit ready to go. She has a good eye for spotting the right locations to shoot with the best backdrops. She is not frightened to climb trees or get in amongst the bushes or ferns to get the shot.

Overall absolutely superb shoot, with great company, plenty of laughs but a professional model aiming to get the best shot.

Highly recommend this young lady and as I said before, will definitely be working with her again in the near future.

Thank you Olivia xx

What a beautiful and lovely person Olivia is! She turned up for the shoot, make-up on and dressed for a the first photos before the time. We had a good few laughs at 2 great locations and I'll definitely recommend her for a shoot. We're busy planning our next outdoors shoot already! Thank you, you make photography fun!

Had the pleasure of meeting the amazing Olivia for a shoot today. Arrived on time with a selection of outfits and was happy to get straight onto shoot. Precomms where amazing and we managed to get some great images. Olivia was easy to get on with and had a good range of poses. We had a good laugh also and are already arranging a second shoot. So I would highly recommend.

I had the pleasure of working with Olivia today. Her pre-shoot coms work great, turned up before the shoot time with hair and make up looking great. She is an excellent model who doesn't need direction, but is happy to listen to any suggestions. Olivia is a nice person who is chatty and professional in her modeling.

I highly recommend Olivia to anyone who is looking to work with her.
