I have worked with Stephen a couple of times now with a few years in between each shoot. This one was organised very last minute but communicating was easy with Stephen. We chatted before the shoot about ideas we had and I think we covered everything we originally discussed plus more. He’s a really good photographer and easy to get along with. It was so much fun working with him again and I would definitely recommend him to anyone.

Had a really great shoot with Stephen at Oak Studio! Communication was perfect, he brought props, and had a really good structured plan for our time. Will definitely work with Stephen again!

Amazing first shoot with Stephen at the studio! Very friendly, professional gentleman. I absolutely loved every minute of it and would recommend him to any model. I am looking forward to the next time we work together. Thank you so much for the great experience :)

I had my first shoot with Stephen at Oak Studio.

We had communicated for nearly two months prior so we both knew exactly what to expect.

We shot both Halloween and fashion. Stephen had bought some Halloween backdrops specifically for our shoot which looked fantastic.

Our shoot was 3 hours but the time flew. I had so much fun and Stephen was lovely and very easy to chat to. He also made sure I was comfortable throughout the shoot.

I’ve got the first couple of images back and they look fantastic so I can’t wait to see the rest!

Highly recommended and I’d love to work with him again in the future.

Lovely shoot I had with Stephen and Angie :)

Stephen applied for my casting in Whitby in a cute little attic apartment. I was delighted as his communication was very expressive and detailed. He wanted to use candle light as part of his brief which I love working with and was perfect for the mood of the apartment. He manoeuvred his way around the small apartment very well and was adaptive to this with the also ever changeing light which happened quickly. He was extremely respectful removing himself when clothing changes where needed and was very open chatty, friendly and professional. I would happily work with Stephen again no worries.... Thank you so much Stephen !

Another very lovely and professionally laid out and planned shoot with Stephen today at my home.

We went through several sets including 1950’s style which I did hair and make up to suit.

The outfits Stephen brought were stunning particularly the vintage dress!

I always thoroughly enjoy working with this true professional and am always thankful for his caring, professional and quietly spoken ways just a joy to work with.

The results will be stunning as were the shots from last shoot!

I recommend to all models from amateur to professional, you will be guaranteed a lovely day with beautiful images to be proud of.

Thank you

I had a maternity shoot with Stephen yesterday and it went fantastic! Coms leading up to the shoot were great and he arrived at time agreed at my home ready to set up for our shoot. We got along really well and it looks like he got some amazing shots. Can't wait to see them.

I would 100% recommend Stephen to other models and would love to work with him again in future.

Stephen was an absolute joy to work with. He recently booked on whilst I was on a trip in Middlesbrough and I am very glad he did.

As easy going individual with plenty of ideas and creativity to make the shoot fly by - which is always a good sign I think!

Pre-shoot communication was excellent and we had discussed working levels for the shoot etc very clearly beforehand. We managed to get through a number of different sets together and each was a joy to create.

I would recommend this lovely man to models of all experience, as Stephen is very easy to get along with and is happy to give direction along with being open to ideas too.

It was a pleasure to meet and work with you Stephen! :)

Stephen and I managed to put together a shoot at very short notice yesterday, and im so glad we did.

Stephen gives great direction when needed and knows exactly what he would like with his shots. His communication is amazing, and we worked well together to create some beautiful shots in a lovely dress he brought along to shoot with. He even asked me to keep the dress after we finished shooting, which i am so grateful for.

I would recommend Stephen to any model, he is lovely to be around and a great photographer.

A lovely afternoon, and i cant wait for our next shoot together!
