Pip the Gentleman could not be a more apt title!

Thank you for putting me at ease at Pozers studio on Saturday, both Helen, Alley and yourself were a pleasure to work with and you have some amazing outfits and were a pleasure to work with on my first studio shoot.

Having seen the images that Alley had shown me of your good self prior to the event, I am so chuffed I had the opportunity. I hope mine can live up to those. Thanks again!

What can I say about this amazing gentleman that no one else has said ???? Lots and lots, because Pip has now spent 6 day’s with me, in the last 4 and a bit months, and I’m honoured to be able to regard this wonderful man, as my friend (he doesn’t like me though, but that’s cool !!! I like him so we are half way there !!!!).

Right, seriously now, Pip is a phenomenal model beyond anyone and everyone’s expectations, when you get asked “ What’s Pip the Gentleman like ???” The name is in the title, Pip is a “perfect” gentleman, in every way imaginable, so kind, caring, funny, sweet, quick witted, hilarious, considerate, quirky, cheeky smile, and a wonderful family man, devoted to his beautiful wife and gorgeous children.

Pip has stayed with me at the studio and my home, for a total of 6 day’s in the last 4 months, and I can honestly say, when he arrives, it’s like seeing an old friend you’ve known for decades, and your happy to see, and sorry to see leave, just as much as a family member you’ve known since birth.

Pips portfolio speaks for itself, there’s nothing that this man can’t achieve, no look he can’t nail, no brief he can’t execute and no image he can’t enhance, so he’s literally your perfect Male model if this is the look you desire for your portfolio. Recommending Pip as a model, Just isn’t enough, he is “The Male Model” of your dreams, that I’m in no doubt whatsoever. If you have an exciting project where you want the Model to collaborate, and give you input, then Pip’s your man, he will do his upmost to execute the perfect image, the rest is up to you. First class Model, five star gentleman, total dream to work with and a wickedly funny sense of humour. The poltergeist even found his jokes hilarious, eh Pip ? Much love from everyone at PoZers Pip, look forward to seeing you in September darling, here’s to another fabulous weekend of Pip the Gentleman at PoZers, giving it large .... :):):):):):):)

I had seen some images of Pip before so when I saw he was going to be at a studio not too far away I jumped at the chance. I worked with Pip during a group shoot on the Saturday where he was doing a duo with Helen Diaz at Topaz Studio but I also booked a couple of hours with him one on one on the Sunday. I wanted to add some male shots to my otherwise entirely female portfolio but wanted something characterful rather than young and six packs. Pip is the perfect example of a characterful model who has a great sense of style but also stands out from the crowd. I have some epic shots and quite frankly don't know what to do with them all!

Great afternoon photographing this character filled gentleman yesterday. Very easy to work with requiring minimal direction, plus he knows how to read an image so will contribute the the overall effect being achieved. Definitely someone to add to your portfolio.

I worked with the amazing Pip the Gentleman again the other day- but this time at the amazing Pozers studio on a workshop! It was our first workshop together and we had a fully sold out workshop with 6 photographers on the day!

It was a super busy day with lots of lighting set ups, costume changes and more- but Pip was energetic, super creative and such a talented model to work with throughout!

I originally met Pip briefly whilst I was shooting with a photographer friend of mine and Pip was dropping some clothes off at the studio. I grabbed Pip and we did a few shots together- which were stunning! I knew there and then that we would a blast working together- and soon after organised the workshop at the amazing Pozers!

The day was full to the brim with laughter, was super productive and Pip is such a fantastic character to work with! Professional, very respectful but also with a hint of mischievousness- just the perfect mix for a model! Pip is also a great actor in front of the camera and his costumes and wardrobe are definitely some of the best styled I have seen a male model bring to a shoot.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to all creatives, thankyou for a lovely day, Helen x

Just back at the PC, still buzzing, after a shoot with Pip and Helen Diaz at Pozers' studio. Pip is a natural, whether working solo or in a pair, conjuring up character after character in moments of pure theatre. Book Pip and you get someone who knows his job inside out.

Just had a great shoot with Pip at his duo day with Helen Diaz at Pozers studio. Pip really is a pleasure to work with and is very friendly and easy going. He has a wide range of amazing outfits and accessories, creating a great variety of characters.

Definitely very highly recommended and I certainly hope to work with him again.

Pip absolute star and a fantastic model to work with.

He puts a tremendous amount of effort into planning his outfits as well as the actual modelling, and is a huge hit at the studio each time he comes.

Highly recommended.

Pip is a real star. A real pleasure to work with. Pip can create shots with so much atmosphere and really gets what you are after and helps to achieve strong results with a great ability to act out what is required. I hope that our paths cross again in the future..

Did a group shoot with Pip today was an amazing shoot one of the best shoots I have ever done. He had so many outfits and has loads of ideas and he really gets into character of the person. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking to do a photoshoot. Will certainly be looking to shooting with him again.

Graham Martin

Pip came to the Studio for a Group shoot and i was lucky enough to get to shoot with him, not only did we get an FPI the night before the shoot, but we created some amazing images.

Pip has it all, he has bags of energy and lots of wonderful outfits, he acts the part and really makes sure everyone interacts and gets the shots they want.

Four shoots with him and i am already planning the next one. If you want a truly fantastic male model, look no further!

Thanks Pip for a brilliant shoot, you nailed it.

Did a group shoot at Silkwood Studios today with Pip, just downloaded the images and not a duff one among them. Very enthusiastic and with a great range of clothes and accessories. Definitely a gentleman who knows how to play to his strengths, a pleasure to shoot.

Pip modelled for us at a camera club shoot and certainly lived up to his name - a proper gentleman.

The pre-shoot comms were good as we briefly discussed the shoot requirements and agreed the clothing required.

Pip turned up nice and early so nothing was rushed and we eased into the shoot very smoothly. As with these types of event there were photographers of varying levels of competence and confidence and Pip made them all feel at ease.

I have nothing but positives to say for Pip and will be booking him again for a personal project, I highly recommend him if you want a model with a difference. Cheers Pip.

Had the opportunity to work with Pip a second time last weekend. I took part in the group shoot and had a 1-2-1 session with him afterwards. A pleasure to work with, he brought a wide range of outfits in his own inimitable style, and was very patient and helpful to bring my ideas to life in the 1-2-1 shoot we had.

A true Gent, and thoroughly recommended.

I've admired Pip's work from afar for some time, and was delighted to have the opportunity to work with him at a workshop at the end of November. He has the most incredible range of clothing to showcase his unique image, and is extremely willing and versatile. It was a pleasure to work with him, and I look forward to doing so again.

Matt Horton

I was fortunate enough to attend a workshop where Pip was one of the models this weekend. Not only did he turn up with an astoundingly large selection of great gear but he just nailed every shot. I’ve had a quick look through the images we shot together and I couldn’t be happier. Over and above Pip’s obvious style, he’s a great guy. I had a great time working with Pip and can’t recommend him enough. Looking forward to the next time we shoot. Book him, you won’t be disappointed.

PoZers Studio was honoured to have the phenomenal model, “Pip The Gentleman” for 3 fabulous day’s in our studio, booked up by all our lovely clients and “Pip Fans”. I don’t even know where to start with this reference, there is just so much to say, and I don’t want to miss a thing, because the entire world needs to know about this wonderful man. Ssssoooooooo..... I shall start at the very beginning.... a very good place to start...lol....

I have been following Pip’s wonderful work and images, since meeting and working with a male Model who idolised Pip’s style and work and soon became a “Pip Fan” myself. I was honoured when PIp offered to come to PoZers for a long weekend and was soon busy planning our time together. From the very beginning, Pip’s communication skills was absolutely faultless, we discussed themes, plans, photographers to ensure the entire weekend would be a total success, which of course, it was. As it was coming up to Christmas when our diaries were free to work together, etween us we decided to go with a Christmas theme, something where my photographers might be able to create Christmas cards, enter Christmas themed competitions etc, and we came up with “Bad Santa” as Pip’s amazing look would totally blow any traditional,Santa out of the ball park. This would be for one day of Pip’s visit, the second day to be a 1-1 studio session, so my photographers could decide their own themes, pick clothing from Pip’s phenomenal wardrobe, and I also arranged with my friend (who runs a Steam Punk clothing company) to supply an array of clothing, hats and accessories for Pip to wear during his stay.

Pip drove well over 120 miles on the Friday, from Yorkshire to Swindon and arrived mid afternoon, bang on time, to shoot with our in-house Model, Helen Diaz and the phenomenal photographer, Tony Browne and WOW !!!! I had goosebumps and smiled from ear to ear.... my favourite female & Male models ever ever, both in my studio, both doing something unique, but connecting immediately, creatively and nailing the look in every shot. Helen Immediately gelled with Pip and vice versa and the power they both threw into their poses was mind blowing..... who would have known that an amazing art nude and portrait model like Helen Diaz, and a traditional portrait and quirky, fun, mature Male Model like Pip, would work as a pair ?????? Work was an understatement.... their electricity and power blew the roof off..... they modelled as a pair, as if they had known each other for decades, I had goosebumps, their creativity as a pair was electrifying, I have certainly never seen a duo like it, EVER.... Just wish I had, had my camera with me.... but that’s not a biggy.... as after the shoot, Helen and Pip decided, they would do a double shoot, studio day at PoZers, in the Spring of 2018 !!!! Yippee !!!! Southerners !!!! You don’t want to miss out on this.... it was only Tony Browne and I who witnessed this collaboration, trust me, it’s unbelievalby phenomenal !!!!

Now we move onto the Saturday of Pip’s weekend at PoZers, and today Pip was “Bad Santa”. Pips look was perfect for this theme, and he acted out my collection of storyboard sets like the true champion he is. Pip worked amazingly with my photographers, both experienced and novices. and gave us every possible facial expression, that one person could ever achieve. Pip had 5 sets and 5 costume changes, which flowed perfectly, he took on the role of Bad Santa, just like a professional actor, giving his character a phenomenal personality, better than I ever imagined. He had us laughing with his cheer, near to tears with Santa’s pain and anguish, loving every single pose, head shot and body language was amazing. I have never seen a more convincing and dedicated Santa character, not even in the films, Pip’s amazing and the world needs to know !!!! Hey if Santa is reading this, and you ever need a helping hand or replacement, Pip is your man, hey he’s an even better Santa that the real deal... and that’s the truth....

Day 3 of Pip’s stay at PoZers was a fabulous day full of 1-1 sessions, slots at one-two hour blocks, filled by photographers who e always wanted to shoot this amazing Gentleman. Pip brought a phenomenal wardrobe of clothing, fun, quirky, beautiful 3 piece tweed suits in an array of colours, patterns and styles. He brought along some fabulous quirky shoes, that were really unique, vintage and super stylish, some amazing accessories, hats, pocket watch, gloves, pipes, everything you need to replicate a true gentleman in a true style, blowing every single photographer away with his expressions, posing, clothing and wonderful personality. At the end of the day, I was sad to let Pip go home, but his family and you fabulous northerners have to have your angel back, he really is “PoZers Northern Angel.

Even though I have detailed Pips stay at PoZers, there are still things left unsaid about this man you need to know..... Pip is one of the most amazing Male models, and gentleman I have ever met in my life. When Pip smiles, he doesn’t just grin, his eyes twinkle like stars and the room lights up and your heart feels warm and happy and you grin and feel true emotion of laughter and happiness. There was several occasions I was laughing so hard, tears came to my eyes and my ribs hurt. Pip can play very emotional characters, he can act like a true professional actor, a role that many models just can’t do, it was like Pip was born to do this, there is no other way to describe it. Pip can show raw emotion, serious faces, sadness, heartbreak, devastation, true heart felt emotions for the images..... then.... out of the blue... he will just laugh out loud, taking you by surprise and causing immediate laughter from everyone in the room. He is a beautiful and happy soul, he can nail looking depressed, serious, Heartbroken, but each and everytime, he finishes that period of seriousness with a big grin, outburst of laughter, cheeky little smirk, twinkle in the eye, just to remind you he is a happy and content beautiful gentleman, and this seriousness and emotion is part of his acting capabilities, not becaus he’s a miserable sod with “resting bitch face”.... if Pip lived closer, I would shoot this man every single week for the rest of my life.... as a studio owner, he treated me with nothing but kindness and upsmot respect......as a photographer, he created every single pose and expression I asked of him, his flow posing skills are amazing, taking direction if required, but equally being able to flow pose, for those with minimal Model directing skills... as a human being Pip is one of the most beautiful souls I’ve ever had the pleasure to meet. He was a total delight to be around, he was a phenomenal studio and house guest, my family and fur/feather family loved him, my husband clicked with Pip straight away and we both welcome him to our home absolutely anytime. If you are wondering about hiring PIp, please wonder no more, it will be the best thing you have ever done in your photographic journey, Pip come alive in front of the camera, but behind it, he’s every bit a wonderful, kind, caring, passionate creative and I feel very blessed, that this fabulous gentleman has come into my life at this point, as I look forward to working with Pip in the future as a studio owner and photographer for many, many years to come. If you don’t book this man, you will never have the pleasure of meeting such a phenomenal kind and caring creative, who wants to ensure that every image you capture of him is perfect in every way. Pip really cares about what your capturing, he communicates brilliantly and adds great ideas to your brief and if Pip was a restaurant.... he’d have a zillion Mitchelin stars..... Pip the Gentleman... is.... Pip the Perfectionist and I can’t wait to have this wonderful man back at PoZers, time and time again. Thank you Pip, your one in a billion and I’m so looking forward to our working relationship flourish and our friendship grow for many years to come. Best wishes. Alley
