Had another fantastic shoot with Russ this week. I think it was our third or fourth shoot.

We shot at his home, which is beautiful.

Russ is just a lovely guy, his ideas are fun and his images are stunning. He listens to what you want to get out of the shoot as well as putting his own ideas forward. He shows you the camera and you can see what you’re getting, giving you chance to change your posing etc.

After shooting, Russ always uploads all the images to his Mac and we go through them to decide what we want to keep. He always does one or two for me straight away so I have images before I’ve even left.

I highly recommend Russ, to new and experienced models.

First time shooting with russ but plenty of conversation before our shoot which was great!

I was a model for russ and his camera today, russ was a pleasure to shoot with and on arrival he showed me around everywhere, offered drinks and offered a space to get changed for different outfits ect...

We had a great shoot, he would show me the back of the camera which is great to know what he can see through the lens what me as the model can't see, then at the end of our shoot we sat down and went through the images we took from the day, we went through abit of editing which was great and even sent me some over already! that we edited together which was amazing and so kind.

Would happily shoot with russ again, what a great person and photographer.

Highly recommend, thankyou for a great shoot russ.

Had my first shoot with Russ on Sunday 25th April and we had a jammed packed day of retro styling.

Had great pre-shoot comms and a cuppa welcomed me along with Russ. Very easy to get on with and I was made to feel very comfortable.

Russ gives very concise direction and is very good at getting winning shots.

I'm looking forward to our next project. Thanks for some fantastic photos.

Highly recommended, kind, funny and patient.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Russ this week. We had been in touch for a couple of months beforehand to discuss style and expectations so that we had plenty to work with.

The edits we captured were brilliant and a tough one to select our favourites. So pleased with the outcome that it has influenced Russ to organise a ‘pin-up’ day and venture further down this route.

Such a friendly and vibrant character and made me feel comfortable throughout the shoot.

Great hospitality and company, I would recommend him to anybody looking for that edge.

His photography passion really flourishes and I felt this enhanced my ability to bring more to the shoot for us both. There was a definitive vibe from the outset which gradually built throughout.

Already looking forward to our next shoot in a weeks time!

First time working with Russ. We shot a range of styles and imagines at my home in Manchester. He was on time, polite and absolutely full of energy. He is super passionate about photography. I 100% recommend him.

Thank you for a great shoot!

Has a pleasure to work with Russ again but this time in a location due to the guidelines restrictions. We tried freezing the motion in multi shots with his high-speed lights that were a good experience for me too. The images are great as always!

Russ was a fabulous photographer, his attention to detail was second to none he made me feel at ease and confident within myself to produce some amazing content, I actually can’t rate him enough, down to earth and a true gent not to mention the quality of his work and images. He hardly had to edit them as his work and equipment is top of the range. Highly highly recommend can’t wait to shoot again soon.

Had a shoot with Russ again in his house studio. He made a new decoration and wallpaper and sent me the photos of them before the shoot, so it was easier for me to decide about the outfit and makeup colours. As always he checked the lighting and composition of every single image during the shoot, so as I guessed the photographs are very good.

Enjoyed to work with him and recommended!

I had my first shoot with Russ yesterday. We shot 2 lingerie outfits, 1 fashion and 1 implied.

Russ was lovely, respectful and I felt comfortable and safe. The settings he can offer are multiple and will definitely add to your portfolio.

He makes a great cup of coffee as well!

Unreal! I had a ball shooting with the exceptionally talented Russel in his home studio setup last weekend. Russ has a natural dexterity with the camera and is brimming with ideas for cool images that are full of character. His warm personality instantly puts models at ease, and he has an infectious positivity which makes him great to be around. Technically, Russel demonstrated expert photography skills, working the angles and lighting beautifully to capture the right mood for what we wanted to achieve. His direction was flawless, but he was also happy to go with the flow at times.

Overall, the shoot was fun and relaxed and Russ was very accommodating throughout. It was an absolute dream to shoot with this gifted photographer and the results so far speak for themselves. I look forward to any opportunity to work with him again in the future. 100% recommended!
