It was wonderful to finally work with Steve in Fareham! His communication was brilliant from the get go, and he gave me a very clear timetable of what to expect on the day, and very kindly arranged a full day of photoshoots with a couple of Photographer’s too!

Steve is very kindhearted and picked me up from the train station and took me to Sainsbury’s to get some food beforehand which is greatly appreciated. He has a wonderfully easy-going personality and I really appreciate his honesty and sense of humour, I felt like I could be myself.!

As a photographer, Steve is clearly very talented at what he does and captures the model beautifully in both natural light and studio light, and I’m really enjoying the edits I’ve seen coming through!

Thank you so much for a lovely day and for arranging my trip down to Hampshire!

I had the pleasure working with Steve last week at Fareham Studios. Steve organised the full day shoot for me with 2 other photographers.

Steve is super lovely person to work with, the shoot was laid back, fun and professional throughout. Steve is a great photographer and I found the shoot very rewarding and it was a pleasure to work with Steve again.

I look forward to the next time shooting with Steve, thanks for a lovely shoot.

This was my second shoot with Steve, he attended a group shoot at fareham studio.

As before Steve was very professional, chilled and chatty Steve makes you feel at ease during shooting time and has great direction he knows exactly what he wants to capture.

Thank you Steve for attending and shooting with me I hope to work with you again soon.

Highly recommend 🙌

Steve was an unexpected treat to meet at my charity studio day at Fareham studio yesterday! Due to miscommunication on everyone's part I had no idea he was turning up, but I'm so glad that he did.

We shot an immense number of different looks in our (too short) one hour, perhaps it was a good thing we only had an hour as otherwise we might've exhausted the whole studio!

Steve was an absolute pleasure to work with, from his professionalism and abilities to his sense of humour, it's impossible not to enjoy working with this man. I think it's safe to say, if an opportunity to work with him again surfaces, I'll be grabbing it with both hands!

Thank you so much for coming Steve, and for being so generous with your donation to charity. My friends at the charity are really going to benefit from it :)

I had a brilliant time shooting with Steve at fareham studio we shot with one another for 2hrs and then shot during a group shoot in the evening.

As soon as I met Steve I could already see how much of a great guy he was he’s very chilled and holds great conversation he makes you feel very relaxed and at ease at all times.

Steve had created a mood board with what he wanted to shoot which helped massively, I brought everything that Steve had asked me to bring in advance and we created some fantastic images together Steve had many ideas as I did to together we made the shoot an absolute pleasure.

Thank you Steve for a fantastic shoot I really did have a wonderful time shooting with you and I really hope to work with you again in the future.

Highly recommend 🙌

It was great to work with Steve again after so long, Steve booked a couple of hours on my model day at Inspire Studios over last weekend.

Steve is brilliant to work with, great chat, fun, creative and professional.

I really enjoyed the shoot and catching up with Steve.

Hope to see Steve again in 2024.

This was my fourth shoot with lovely Steve.

I love working with Steve he’s chill, professional and I always know the photos will be amazing.

The photos I’ve seen so far from this shoot are absolutely stunning! I adore Steve’s work and I enjoy spending time with him.

Thank you Steve for working with me. Your shots are definitely some of my all time favourites on my portfolio.

I’m sure we have many more shoots ahead of us and I can’t wait to see what we create in the future. You have been a big part of my modelling career so far and I’ll always appreciate it.

Highly recommend ✨✨

What an absolute pleasure to have finally met in person this awesome photographer

Having followed Steve’s work for sometime I knew that once we set the date we would create magic!

As luck would have it we finally managed to arrange a date at the one and only Fareham studios so armed with my Retro Rob Show the magic unfolded!

Steve was just how I imagined him to be a superb eye for a shot and great sense of humour.

I felt like I had known Steve for years needless to say the time flew by and still new ideas and concepts flowed .

If you have not had the privilege to work with Steve yet you truly are missing a trick.

I truly hope our paths cross again soon so we can continue this new photographic journey.

Thank you so much for a wonderful shoot and great company to be continued.

This was my second shoot with Steve at the wonderful inspire studio in Salisbury. Our first shoot was last April so it’s been a long time between shoots! But for a second shoot, it seemed as though there was no time between the shoots at all! It was so lovely to catch up with Steve. We had such a laugh and I always feel so comfortable around him. Steve really looks after models and always makes sure you feel comfortable and double-checks which photos you feel comfortable with him sharing.

We shot a few sets of portraits as well as a few fashion sets and I absolutely loved so many of the images from all sets.

Steve is a bundle of joy to be around! Expect lots of laughs, fabulous images and great memories! I really hope our paths cross again! I’m very grateful to have met such a wonderful photographer! Steve brings so much joy and support to the photographic world!

I HIGHLY recommend Steve :) x

I was fortunate to have the opportunity to work with Steve. I had been following his work for a long time, and I was overjoyed when he reached out to me after I moved to Reading. Steve was incredibly accommodating, adjusting to my plans and choosing a convenient day for our shoot. Throughout our communication, he was charming, funny, and made me feel like I really knew him.

On the day of the shoot, he met me near his home studio and kindly assisted with my heavy bag. He even offered me tea and delicious snacks. To top it off, at the end of the shoot, I was delighted to learn that his charming wife had prepared the most delicious cake for us. 😍

Our entire shoot was a blend of fun and relaxation. Steve is a highly professional photographer, and he showed me all the photos we took on his laptop, which were truly amazing. We had great conversations, and the shoot progressed smoothly, allowing me to pose freely, choose my outfits, and be creative.

After the shoot, Steve even sent me some photos for approval to ensure they met my expectations. 🥰

Working with Steve was an absolute pleasure, and I'm grateful to have met him. Thank you so much for the wonderful shoot, and I look forward to working with you again soon. 😍

What a great shoot with Steve! Despite the distance we managed to arrange a shoot together, with lots of hard work on Steve's end. We arranged a shoot at Fareham Studio and Steve went about contacting other photographers to see if we could turn it into a studio day, which I am very grateful for.

Steve was the first photographer I shot with on the day and what a fabulous start to the morning it was! Not being a morning person, it was fabulous to work with someone with such high energy, cracking jokes and creativity. We managed to get through lots of different sets in our 3 hours together. Our shoot together put me in a wonderful mood for the rest of the day.

Steve has a wonderful way of working, a relaxed and fun shoot with time to chat and go through some of the images on laptop.

Definitely a shoot to remember, the images are looking stunning.

Highly recommended!! Thank you Steve :)

I was fortunate enough to work with the wonderful Steve during my studio day at Inspire Studios, and truly cannot speak highly enough of my experience working with him.

Steve kindly introduced himself to me in a message prior to the shoot letting me know he had booked in and how he works, which really reassured me going into the studio day that I would be in good hands. Not to mention, I had already heard from other creatives about what a lovely person Steve is, how helpful and supportive he is to other creatives, and he certainly lives up to his stellar reputation.

Steve arrived ready to shoot, brimming with great energy and ideas. He is incredibly friendly, polite, respectful, easy to speak to and be around - I thoroughly enjoyed our entire time working together. We managed to get a few different sets within a couple hours, and the shoot absolutely flew by!

By later on that evening I had already seen a number of beautiful images from the shoot and have been so pleased with the outcomes. His photography expertise and retouching skills are indisputable, and his portfolio really does speak for itself.

Steve has my highest recommendation and I absolutely can’t wait to work with him again, hopefully in the not-so-distant future. Thank you for a wonderful shoot Steve! :D

This was my second shoot with lovely Steve. The most recent shoot we had was at his home studio creating beautiful lingerie shots. Steve's studio has a great selection of backdrops and lighting!

Steve is one of the nicest guys I've met here, friendly, chatty and a very talented photographer with a great eye. His use of natural light and composition is incredible.

Steve has taken many of my favourite shots of me so far! They have been absolutely amazing for my portfolio and has really helped me grow on PP especially as I'm new on here.🥰

Thank you Steve for all your endless amounts of kindness and support during the past few months you've helped me massively and really boosted my confidence!

Highly recommended from me! ❤️

We met with Steve on the group shoot organised by Piers (@piers444) in lovely harbour of Bosham

We started with a coffee and little chat to get to know each other better. At that point I already knew, this shoot is going to be something else. And I was right!

We went out and started wandering around the area. On every corner there were amazing locations awaiting for us! The only problem was a horrible wind, but nothing could prevent us from having a great time. As I’ve already said, the atmosphere was so good that I felt I am just hanging out with group of old friends and we are taking pictures in the meanwhile 😄

I really enjoyed our shoot even despite the weather and we’ve already agreed with Steve that next one should be in more “controlled conditions” 😁

I am really looking forward to it, as his pictures in the studio and simply exquisite. He is also highly professional, polite, attentive and very pleasant to communicate with. I can totally recommend him to fellow models, as he is a dream to work with.

Many thanks to you, Steve, and cannot wait to work with you again!

I had a fabulous first shoot with Steve in my back garden and west wittering beach.

Steve instantly put me at ease and we had an amazing shoot capturing lots of great photos!

He has a perfect eye for the shot. His portfolio speaks for its self and he is wonderful company.

Thank you for working with me (and for your lovely reference on my page!)

Truly memorable day & I can’t wait for our next shoots that we are planning!

Highly recommended

I had my first shoot with amazing Steve. He is kind, friendly, easy going, enthusiastic, creative, professional and incredibly talanted with great eye on detail. He has a great sense of humour. He is one of the best photographers and I enjoyed every moment of our shoot. Time flew by so quickly. Back of camera shots looked amazing and edits look brilliant.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Thank you so much for the amazing shoot!:)

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Steve whilst I had some availability at Fareham Studio.

I have always been a fan of Steve's work; his use of natural light and composition is second to none so naturally I did a little happy dance when he enquired about booking me..

Not only is Steve a fantastic photographer, he is also a wonderful person to be around. We had lot's of time laughing and chatting in between taking some epic photographs together.

I absolutely adore the images Steve has sent to me (so much so they are plastered all over my portfolio!)

Thank you for an absolutely wonderful shoot Steve, I hope our paths cross again!

(COMPLETELY recommended by me btw.)

What a lovely guy and great photographer! Steve contacted me a few months ago to book a shoot and very kindly arranged 2 studio days for me at Fareham studio. He sorted out everything - scheduling the days, arranging for me to stay over at the studio and even took me out for dinner after the first day with him and Nick (Canonphoto)!

We probably spent as much time chatting as we did shooting, but I hope Steve didn’t mind this as we got some great images! We did a whole range of sets from natural light portraits to studio fashion in our 4 hour shoot and Steve was open to my ideas throughout the shoot as well as giving helpful direction and positive feedback. He made the effort to get to know me, find out what I’m best at and make sure I was happy and comfortable, which I think really comes across in the photos.

You can tell that he truly does photography for the love of people - both getting to know models as individuals and forming friendships with other photographers. I felt that we really got on and understood each other and would love to shoot with Steve again, I would have been happy to shoot with him all day! Thank your for arranging a very enjoyable couple of days and for capturing me in a natural way that shows my personality!
