I worked with the lovely Mike on one of my recent tours - and what a memorable shoot!! Mike kindly booked me fairly last minute and we had such a lovely 3 hours shooting together at his lovely home studio.

I was given a warm welcome, with a cup of green tea and plenty of creativity! Mike let me be mad (did I say MAD :) ) and creative as I like to be, incorporating different looks and props into the shoot and modelling with limited direction, which is how I work best. I really enjoyed Mikes company, he was super easy and professional to work with- and Mikes family are so adorable, friendly and outgoing, that I ended up staying there until midnight chatting to them all after the shoot!! A lovely family full of character and I really hope we manage to work together again on my next tour.

Thankyou for a lovely shoot! Helen x

Where to start. I had a photoshoot with Mike yesterday and he was so lovely. He came and picked me up from my house, we went to London and then drove me back home. He even bought some food and cold water due to the heat wave! Highly recommended and a true gentlemen!

What a wonderfully friendly, professional and talented photographer Mike is!

Right from the very beginning, I had a very good impression of Mike as he replied quickly and fully to my messages, answering any questions I had and creatively planning the shoot with me. As well as listening to and implementing my ideas, Mike contributed a great deal to the overall success of our photo shoot by supplying fantastic locations and a wealth of knowledge in his craft.

Mike exudes friendliness and made me feel relaxed straight away which meant that I 'warmed up' pretty quickly, allowing us to capture some great images right from the offset. Whenever I ran out of ideas, Mike picked up on it immediately and offered direction - this is a guy who knows exactly what will work and look great on camera! What's more, Mike has banter :) so we had a right laugh, too!

Whether you are an experienced model or just starting out, Mike is the photographer for you!

As I am brand new to modelling I was slightly nervous however Mike made me feel at ease straight away and I felt completely comfortable.

He was great with giving directions and gave lots of advice which helped me a lot.

The photos he has produced are fantastic and I'm looking forward to the next time we work together!

Had my first shoot with Mike today in my local area on location

Communication prior to the shoot was very clear and professional,Mike was able to explain ideas and image preference well and for a new model I was able to adapt my clothing and efforts accordingly.

Despite the gale force winds winds we battled against I felt it was a very good and worthwhile shoot Mike gave clear direction and prompted where necessary,I felt at ease and comfortable around him and when changes were required Mike acted professional and was aware of my needs and preferences as well as his own.

Thank-you Mike.😊

I met with Mike today at one of Keith's(M T Photography) group photo-shoots at Toad Rock in Tunbridge Wells . Mike is a fantastic photographer and very easy to work with ! We've shot for about 3 hours and all the pictures he took are beautiful :)

I highly recommend Mike to all and I'd really love to work with him again :)

Thank you ,

This was not my first shoot with Mike but as usual he was well prepared both on the day and in prior communication, bought along some fab props that could be used during the shoot and is always full of amazing, creative ideas! so shooting with him is always fun and full of great laughs that always lead to amazing images :)

He is always easy to get along with and very respectful as well as having a brilliant sense of humour so I would recommend anyone to work with him.

Thank you Mike x

The shoot was absolutely amazing. Mike showed up on time and was quick at getting into the flow of things. Mike is such an easy guy to get on with and I felt more relaxed than I ever have obs shoot before. I would highly recommend to all models. I was extremely happy with the end result of pictures. Amazing job. Can't wait to shoot again.

This was my second shoot with Mike, he was on time as usual, prepared for anything and full of fantastic ideas. Our shoot took place in a river and Mike was extremely prepared with safety precautions and tips, had scouted out the location vigorously to ensure I was in no danger whatsoever and throughout the shoot ensured that I was happy, and comfortable enough in the extremely cold water to get the shots needed. I knew I was safe working in the cold water with Mike and knew he would not push me past my limits. Might I add he was also such a gentleman watching out for pedestrians alongside the river while I had to change! so thank you Mike :D

Thank you Mike for another Fantastic (even though cold) shoot! :) I hope to work with you again soon x

Mike was fantastic to work with, he was so very kind enough to pick me up and drop me off so that I had travel to and from our shoot, He was friendly, has a cracking sense of humour, makes a good cup of tea, and can easily put a model at ease when working through ideas during a shoot. His pre and post communications are fantastic so I never felt like I was shooting blind and the pictures I've seen I'm so very amazed with!

I cant say much more than I would most definitely recommend anyone to work with Mike regardless of level of experience, His talents are far better than he gives himself credit for!

Thank you very much Mike and I look forward to shooting again soon :D x

Kent Photo Studio

A big thumbs up from me to Mike Bailey for being the perfect studio renter.

I own the Kent Photo Studio in Maidstone, and this is the third time Mike has used my studio. He is always very respectful of the premises, polite and generally a great guy to have around.

From the feedback I get from his models, he is the perfect gentleman on set and always very hard working to get the right shots.

Without a doubt, Mike is always welcome to pop by for a cup of tea (two sugars) whenever he is in the area!

I do not Know if there are enough kind words I can find to say about Mike really. This being only my second photo shoot and first time working very closely with one photographer the nerves were definitely flying high and from the moment I met him I felt completely comfortable and at ease... he is a lot of fun but very professional with it. He gave me tones of advise and had a lot of interesting stories to tell.

I would definitely recommend Mike to any model but even more so to a model who is starting out and is nervous or shy as I believe he would make you feel very comfortable and give you all the reassurance you need.

He has a very big kind heart... I believe he cares a lot for all of his models. He made sure I felt comfortable at all times. The one time I did feel slightly uncomfortable due to a wardrobe malfunction there was know pressure from him for me to stay like that what so ever and he immediately told me to put something on that I felt more comfortable in even with out him asking to look first.

I have now got 100% trust in Mike and I would be more than happy to have an opportunity to work with him again.

My evening/night shoot with Mike was brilliant. He was more than happy to take some of my suggestions on board about location and we had a great fun evening taking photographs. Mike really knows how to put you at ease and is very easy to get along with, and also knows what makes a fantastic photograph. I would completely recommend working with him.

I had the great pleasure of working with Mike a second time yesterday, on a cosplay shoot, and I can't recommend him highly enough. He was endlessly patient, happy to clamber through/over things with all of his equipment and always had a smile on his face. Mike has terrific ideas for shot composition, and came up with some brilliant creative ideas to make the shots really great. I can't wait to do another shoot with Mike in the future.
