Ste ran a lighting workshop at Carr Wood Dam, St.Helens under the aegis of Sheridans photography. Worked with Ste and model Clara Taylor at various locations around the dam in different light/shade conditions and with different lighting set-ups. Learned various techniques and got some great shots, very useful morning ! Would certainly do another workshop with Ste, maybe the fashion one. Highly Recommended.

Had a fantastic shoot with Ste, shooting a mix of fashion, portraiture and nude, with some gorgeous lighting set ups - the images are absolutely beautiful!

Ste is a very respectful fellow, excellent comms, polite, very aware, and artistic - would highly recommend to all models and creatives.

Thanks again!

I had the absolute pleasure of working with the Fabulous Ste.

Ste is such a Professional yet friendly Photographer.

Everything was well organised beforehand, making it a really productive shoot but shot in a relaxed manor.

Ste collected and dropped me back off at the station which was really kind, also allowing for us to get to know each other on the way to the Studio.

The images we achieved are outstanding and the photoshoot with Ste is one to be remembered.

Ste knows exactly how to treat a model, exactly how to direct and exactly how to get the best out of the Model.

If you get the chance to work with Ste, jump at it. You won't be disappointed.

As a Photographer, if you get chance to work alongside Ste, take note and you won't go wrong.

Ste.. You are a Legend. Thank you so much for a wonderful shoot.

Easy 5 stars :D

Absolutely fantastic shoot, really enjoyed the experience beginning to end.

Ste is a complete pleasure to work with, and create some thing that is a 'wildcard' in the collection of the shoots in the bank of work in this girls journey.

His knowledge of lighting is absolutely beautiful, adore the way he can change the ambiance any time and in the moment too. He is a hugely successful photographer in fashion editorial and brought his energy and focus to work alongside the girl who loves drama and erotica as her usual genre. We actually created 3 sets of eclectic mix of the skills of both worlds brought to the shoot so seamlessly blended with the fun fuelled class we rocked. To be honest was the best day of shooting done to date with clothes on her body for the duration, and usually means that the shoot is nsfw but the entire business was achieved sfw and really enjoyed the time it didn't feel like clothes needed to be removed, so very unusual for the girl. Love it when feel flabbergasted and that she is...

So very much hope that it will be a second time of many... Ste thank you so very much, love learning new skills and experiences, you are a frequency of energy and focus that is so inspiring, really appreciate your time and effort, you are class, thank you so very much

Woah! What a fabulous shoot!

This was my first time shooting with Ste and I’m so glad I did! He arrived at my home right on time and ready to shoot! He’s absolutely full of great ideas and it’s obvious he is very experienced.

We shot a range of different styles of fashion. (Even my cats got involved)

Definitely recommend him to ANY model. Very patient, professional & brilliant pre coms.

He is also great at directing models..Which in my opinion is really rare.

Thank you for a absolutely brilliant shoot!

What a wonderful person, shoot and results!!

Ste is hands down an absolute professional! From communication, demeanour and skills, this guy has it all. I had such a wonderful 4 hours with him at my home where we shot editorial fashion, Ste’s attention to detail is impeccable and an incredible skill to have as a photographer, adjusting the set as he went along to make the shots really pop.

Ste is a kind, easy going chap who I’d recommend to all models, his welcoming presence is enough to put anyone at ease and I felt very comfortable in his company.

He even taught me a thing or two about photography and was more than happy to help me with my questions!

Honestly, if you have the opportunity to shoot with him, you will not be disappointed!

We had our second duo shoot with Stephen and as always he always delivered on his professionalism, instruction, and progressive ideas. An absolute joy to work with and I’m sure it won’t be the last time we shoot!

Highly recommended, Thanks Ste!

Worked with Stephen for the first time and the first thing I noticed was is incredible professionalism he has towards his work, you can tell that straight from the get go that he has honed his craft exactly to a high standard, and he knows exactly what he is after from every photo. It’s amazing when you get to work with a photographer that has an absolute vision and the results speak for themselves.

I will definitely be working with him and again exploring new ideas and I highly highly recommend other models to work with him - it’s a yes from me! 🔥

Had the pleasure of being booked for a lighting session with Ste and from jump he was very professional, sending over detailed information on what was required for the shoot as well as providing a model release form and mood board.

Really enjoyed working with Ste, he provides a relaxing and well organised work environment and I definitely recommend working with him.

Another shoot with Ste. This time was something bigger and more surprises came up for both of us. A week workshop somewhere in peak District. And also most important? working for a fashion house. We just smashed it. So easy for both of us or we just have used to it ☺️.

Ste knows what he wants and how. Most of the times of course he let me.doy stuff 😁( how kind of him). Very very very highly recommended by me.

Cheers to our next shoot.

Even bigger and more excited than ever. New challenges and opportunities on board.

See you soon Ste.

I had another shoot with Ste, but this time a duo one with a male model. Ste as always knows what he wants and how to get it. Words are not enough to describe it. he is very professional, very patient, relaxed with whatever he does. And he will get the shot 100%. And of course he can make you feel comfortable, relaxed.

Very very highly recommended by me.

Shoots are planning again and again, we have so many plans, more to follow. Thank you so much for everything Ste, see you soon.

My second shoot with Ste and perfect pre comms and ideas as always.

His imagination is both inspiring and wonderfully creative, so the story shines through on the images.

Ste knows how to play with light like no other and his attention to detail allows me to know that the shot will be perfect.

Can't wait to do future shoots and would highly recommend!
