This was my first time shooting with Simon, he replied to a last minute casting of mine. Even though it was last minute and there was minimal planning we managed to create some stunning images in the southern Wales countryside & even got to fit in some studio time too!

Great first coms and was even there to pick me up from the local train station and drove us to the location. He’s very relaxed and really easy to get along with and work with!

I absolutely love the images we produced and I really hope we get the opportunity to work together again in the near future!

I absolutely recommend him to any model!

Thanks again!

I shot with Simon again recently, on location and at Beehive Studio in Newport.

He bought along some outfits for me to wear and we shot in a few different areas before heading to the studio.

We got some great shots both outside and inside!

I shot with Simon for the second time recently, pre comms were great/clear.

We shot a mixture of location and indoor shots again and we were lucky to catch a bit of Welsh sun!

Simon picked me up from the station and we drove to a reservoir to get some shots before the apartment he booked was available. We got some lovely location images and some nice ones in the flat also.

Simon was great to work with again. He was laidback and happy to go with the flow, as well as being organised with some outfits he bought along himself.

Full Moon Studio

I was pleased to welcome Simon to Full Moon Studio for the first time and would have no reservation in recommending him to others. Despite a serious delay in arriving due to traffic, he was easy going and good company throughout his time here. It was a scorching hot day and it was very apparent that Simon was primarily concerned with his model's wellbeing and comfort. Simon will be very welcome here anytime.

I worked with Simon for the first time today at Full Moon Studio, as well as some outdoor pics (lovely secluded area by the water) in the sun.

Pre comms were great, he gave me a list of a few things that he'd like me to bring and he also bought a few things along for me to wear.

Despite the nightmare we both had getting to the same place, Simon was in good spirits and gave me some water straight away (hottest day ever recorded in the UK, so very much appreciated). He didn't rush me once, he was laid back and open to my ideas and let me pose freely.

Simon was super polite from pre comms all the way to the end of the shoot, offering help to get me home etc due to all the issues with trains. He made sure I was always comfortable and made sure to say 'let me know if you're not' just to check in, which was very nice of him.

I really hope we got some good images and I look forward to hopefully working together again sometime!

Strong recommendation from me. :)

Simon booked me last minute before midnight previous for a shoot in Bristol at (studio 58) after he sadly had a cancellation. And happily I was contacted for a paid assignment for a local studio.

Pre communications were great with Simon. When we met we shot a lot of images in short succession, he is a friendly photographer and very patient with us models!

I had the brief opportunity to work with Victoria summers on a duo themed miss world photoshoot. The shoot went really quick and I really enjoyed my time there. Simon was a good host for us at the studio as the owner at the time could not attend while we we're there.

During the shoot Simon was showing me the images from the back of the camera and I was happy with the results and glad he managed to achieve the shots he wanted to create.

I hope to work with Simon again soon and I recommend him to any model wishing to work with him.

Thank you, Alicia

I had a really good shoot with Simon the other day at Studio 58.

Unfortunately one model cancelled the night before and one did not show up.

He took this in his stride and it turned out to be a great shoot.

Luckily the lovely Alicia joined us later on in the shoot and we got some really good images together.

Simon is great and I really enjoyed our shoot.

I hope we can shoot again.

Highly Recommend :)

Simon booked me for half day shoot at mine place and I'm glad That he did.

What a lovely guy! It was just amazing to meet up chat and shoot!

Simon is very friendly and professional. Made me feel very comfortable durning shoot.

We shoot lots of outfits and sets. I'm pleased with our shoot.

Recomended :)

Far Forest Studio

We were pleased to welcome Simon to our studio today for his first visit and hopefully it won't be the last.

Pre shoot communications were first class and everything was covered well in advance.

He arrived fully prepared with the model and quickly settled in.

It was a pleasure to have him here, a perfect gent behind as well as in front of the camera. Great company and great to chat to. He had a great rapport with the model, very respectful and extremely considerate making the whole session was very relaxed.

Highly recommended to any model or studio.

I would definitely recommend Simon and would be delighted to work with him again.

Pre shoot communication was perfect. We got a shoot arranged very quickly and I had an idea of what Simon wanted me to bring with me in terms of clothing and what we would be shooting on the day. Simon collected me at the train station and was waiting for me when I arrived (even though I'd walked the wrong way by accident! We found each other very quickly!)

Simon was very respectful the entire time we were shoot. He is very considerate, always asking if I needed a break or a drink etc. He is so friendly and easygoing! He made sure to let me see the images on the back of the camera as we were going so I could see what results we were getting.

The entire shoot was laid back and relaxed. We worked through several different outfits and finished up shooting art nude. I felt completely at ease the entire time. Definitely recommended :)

Freya

I had such a fantastic shoot with Simon. He was really easy going and he brought so many lovely outfits for me to wear for the shoot which was a big surprise. Simon came fully prepared to the shoot and was so easy to model for. I do hope to model for Simon again in the future. Time really did just fly by. 100% recommended.

I worked with the lovely Simon at my home a short while ago and had such a lovely shoot!

It was our first shoot working together and I am always a little nervous (especialley as Simon didn't have many references on Purpleport) but I needn't have been as from the start of the shoot Simon was down to earth, respectful and super fun to work with!

We worked together on a mixture of fashion to art nude, making the most of the natural light in the house and garden- and the photos were beautiful. I had an enjoyable shoot and would love to work together again! Thankyou for a lovely day and hope to work together again soon! Helen x

Rara Curves

Had my first Shoot with Simon, and although he was very nervous at first we managed to get some great shots and worked very well together. I was his first ever model so I completely understood how nerve racking it is, but after awhile he was happy to instruct me and get the shots he wanted. We did do some outdoor art nude shots and it was rather cold but it was nice to do some new things. Simon was a perfect gentleman and even brought me flowers as he was running late. But all coms before hand were great and I look forward to working with him again. Highly recommend.
