Met Simone at a duo shoot with Ellie - NEWO and what a fun day of artmaking it was. Simone is drop dead gorgeous but also really down to Earth and friendly. I felt at ease straight away and we giggled away within minutes. Simone needs minimal direction and can pose beautifully on her own, a true natural with a charming smile and electric blue eyes. Hope to work and hang out with Simone again (providing she brings her big bag of M&Ms again;) x

I had a shoot yesterday with a friend as he wanted to learn more about photography and simone was the perfect choice to model for us, not just as a model but as she has photography experience to so my friend had a great knowledge base to turn to if he needed any advise.

Simone needed very little direction and if any was given she knew exactly was needed and wanted from both myself and my friend

I can't wait to work with her again

Thank you

I have worked with simone once before and I was pleased when she agreed to shoot with me again this time working for my friends company.

she was on time and shoot ready even giving her own ideas towards the shoot to help achieve the best result.

cant wait to work with her again.

Had a lovely shoot with Simone on my no-makeup project. Simone arrived on time and looked great without makeup. Lots of communication beforehand and she was really up for the theme for the shoot. Nice and friendly and chatty, Simone made the whole shoot a real pleasure. I would highly recommend her to photographers and any clients looking for a model.

Simone recently undertook the perhaps unenviable job of paddling in a stream near a waterfall in Yorkshire in February, wearing my designs and a wonderful head dress by another creative. This was for an image collaboration with Newo using one of my scaled corset designs. Simone's edgy look worked beautifully with the water goddess theme and the resulting images are both stunningly beautiful and spectacular. I'd love to work with Simone again and would happily recommend her. ♥

Simone was fantastic to shoot with, she brought a warm smile, professional attitude and tons of suitable outfits and poses on the day - despite having travelled quite far and having been at work all day previously, she maintained a cheery and acquiescent disposition throughout. Her experience really showed on our shoot as once the concept was discussed she needed little direction to achieve exactly the look we were aiming for. I came away with a memory card full of great images and the funny feeling that we'll work together again at some point! Would highly recommend Simone to professional and amateur photographers alike =)

Simone is a superstar in the making !! She was incredibly reliable, on time, communication was great and she was really polite :)

Simone has a very edgy look which will benefit anyone's portfolio 100%, She even brought me a mcdonalds breakfast how nice is that :O !!! I will very happily shoot simone again and I do hope one day I get to, any photographer that gets to work with Simone will not be disappointed

I had a lovely time working with Simone on a cyberpunk shoot. This was the first time working with her and it was an absolute pleasure to chit chat with her whilst applying her make-up. She is punctual, prepared and organised, as she brought a long a variety of outfits, props and jewellry. It was clear that modelling is something she is very passionate about.

Overall, it was fantastic working with her and I highly recommend to anyone who requires a professional and talented model. I hope to work with her again for future projects.

I was very lucky when Simone volunteered to shoot with me, despite the long drive she had to take to get to the studio. Simone was early to the shoot and arrived with a large selection of outfits, accessories and ideas. She moved from pose to pose quickly, although allowed time for me to check each shot to ensure we got it spot-on.

Despite the cold studio, Simone did not complain once, and her enthusiasm for modelling was infectious. I would not hesitate to recommend Simone to any photographer looking for a professional, friendly model, and look forward to any future opportunities shooting with her.

This was my 2nd shoot with Simone.

The first shoot was arrange by a MUA and we had a great shoot together and so as a result I was eager to work with Simone again.

Simone is EASY to work with …. With stunning looks and personality to match.

Its extremely hard to take a bad picture of Simone she takes direction well but also doesn’t need it.

The shoot only lasted around an hour (as planned) BUT we got lots of great shots.

VERY pleased with my 2nd shoot with Simone and we already have a 3rd arranged.

I had the fantastic opportunity to work with Simone yesterday and cannot recommend her highly enough!

Her pre-communications were great and she was very easy to talk to both before and during the shoot. We went to a few different locations and despite the cold weather Simone was a great model, very patient and hard working throughout! The lighting wasn't ideal on the day but Simone suggested some great ideas and really helped me make the most of the locations! Simone also did her own makeup to a very professional standard and brought a selection of great outfits.

She is not only a great model but a lovely person too! If you haven't worked with her already do not miss out and book her now!!

Thank you again!

I had the pleasure of working with Simone earlier today.

As the shoot was arranged by the MUA I hadn’t got chance to get to know Simone before the shoot and had only exchanged a few messages in a group chat but on the day she was easier to get to know and fun to work with.

Unfortunately it was fairly cold during our shoot but Simone was happy to carry on in order to e the right images. Simone was also happy to risk life and limb by climbing up on top of some scrap metal as well as standing in the road dodging cars all without complaints and a smile on her face.

And did I mentioned she arrived early !

Would def recommend Simone and look forward to working with her again !

Simone was the model for one of my group nights I organise at Image Red studios she arrives make up and hair ready.

I love working with Simone as she also understands lighting and camera settings so she can help out the photographer on there turn if it is needed.

Can't wait till our next project and group shoot

I had the pleasure of working alongside this stunning model last weekend on a catalogue and high fantasy shoot with the fabulous Medusa Gorgona Photography. Simone did her own hair and make-up and she looked amazing! We had a good giggle running to and from the changing room whilst blasting out loads of poses for the catalogue shoot, she was a delight to have around! We also then modelled together for the high fantasy images which was difficult as there were a lot of things to be concerned about; we had huge wigs on, flower crowns, gorgeous gowns and a smoke machine to work with and Simone did an amazing job!

We also had to model on the floor together, again, Simone took it in her stride and we worked it!

Would love to work with her again.

Can't wait to see the images!!

SO i finally got to shoot with Simone , actually this was the second attempt at shooting as the shoot we originally booked ended up being postponed due to a series of events on the day but we sat the date and it happened.

The night before we sorted everything out but the weather looked really rubbish so I went looking through my inspiration folder on my phone and saw a rain shoot I would like to try and do. after sending the images to her, she loved the idea :) and so we went for it and said bugger the rain lets do it :)

the next morning she messaged me asking if she could come early and i was definitely going to jump at the chance of that, so after arriving we had a quick chat about what we wanted to do and set off into the woods local to mine half way through the shoot the rain didn't come so i had a last minute idea and go and see some friends who own a clothing company on the off chance they had anything they wanted photographing and i was in luck. we grabbed a couple of bits and off we went in to Tamworth and we nailed it the owners were really happy with the pics

I cant wait to shoot with her again and cant recommend her enough. :)

Thank you for a great shoot Simone xxx

WOW!!! This is the next top model in the making!!! I had the pleasure of working with Simone for the first time last week and I absolutely LOVE this girl. Despite a long drive she turned up to Flash Bang Wallops studio full of life, bringing in the fresh breath of air that she is. I think this is my best shoot to date, and probably one of best models I have had the pleasure of working with. Simone's skin is naturally radiant and very easy to work with, her cheek bones are to die for which make contouring easy and her eyes shine so bright you need sunglasses. I cant wait to work with Simone again soon if she'll have me xxxxxx

Flash Bang Wallop

It's rare to find someone whose skin tones radiate the light. Simone doesn't just reflect light...she soaks it up and lets it slowly radiate with a gorgeous glow. I thought it was happening in the studio but dismissed it thinking I was hungover...but when coming to view the images at larger resolution I was so overwhelmed with her reflective skills ...I nearly passed out. :)

I have found The One. It's taken me 5 years

Simone is ace....undemanding, great at posing and following my pedantic direction, punctual and really fun and cheerful to work with.

I enjoyed the shoot very much and although the distance is a bugger...hope we can do it again this year.

Highly recommended.

This girl is amazing, she has become one of our regular model team, and we quite simply can't get enough of her. She is a gem, always happy with the roles she is given and truely gives them 100%... Simone takes direction well but also has her own ideas for anyone that may be struggling. She is a valued member of the team and we love her greatly. Watch this space, you will see alot more of her at our events!!
