I had an amazing second shoot with Chris recently, this time a fashion shoot on location at the most incredible Abbey ruins that Chris discovered nearby! I had never been there before despite only living about 10/15 minutes away and wow did it make the most brilliant backdrop for the photos! Chris brought along two stunning dresses for me to wear which both fitted me like a glove. The weather was perfect, and we couldn't have asked for a better day. Chris is so much fun to work with, he's super friendly, chatty, professional, respectful and an overall joy to work with and spend time with. Chris also gives great direction but he also allowed me to give my own ideas too. He kindly sent me a selection of edited images from the day and they are breathtaking! An excellent shoot from start to finish and I highly recommend him to others. Thanks again for a fab day :D

I've shot with Chris a few times now and he always works hard for great results from every shoot. He is very creative with his ideas and will always go out of his way to achieve great things.

Chris is excellent with communication, we always have a laugh and he is always professional and respectful and will never let anyone down!

Definitely recommended, thank you Chris 😁

First time shooting with Chris and I have to say he is super lovely, chatty and very professional! Chris kindly picked me up and drove us to Portsmouth where he had already checked out previously spots we could shoot at which I thought was extremely organised. Pre communication was excellent and made for an easy flowing day. I had a lot of fun due to Chris's lovely nature as he is so easy to get along with and to have a good laugh! Loved what I saw on the back of camera and his passion for creating images clearly showed. We spoke about different ideas for other shoots and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Chris and work with him again :) Thank you for a great day! Until next time

I had the pleasure of meeting and shooting with Chris at my home recently. Pre-comms were great and I knew the ideas and themes that Chris had in mind, including a mood board which is always very useful so we were both on the same page. I absolutely loved the main theme we were going to be shooting and that was a fun, tongue in cheek theme of what a girl gets up to at home alone. We had so much fun and so many giggles. Chris is a professional, respectful and an overall friendly guy. He gave great direction but also allowed me to pose freely and give input and ideas too. Chris knew how to use his lighting perfectly and the compositions of his photos were brilliant - I am over the moon with the photos! I would highly recommend Chris to other models and I would definitely love to work with him again :D

Today was my first shoot with Chris, we had been speaking about a number of different shoots for a while and Chris had the idea of an Audrey Hepburn style shoot for our first one.

Pre comms were excellent, Chris planned the outfit out well, he brought all the props and knew what kind of style and look he wanted to achieve which aided a smooth shoot.

Chris was kind, respectful and very friendly on the shoot, we managed to source a great location between us and the shoot went very smoothly.

I hope to work with Chris again in the near future and highly recommend working with Chris for a great shoot and a boost to your portfolio!

Thanks!

I had my first shooting last Sunday with Chris and it was a pleasure working with him.

He is a very creative head and knows exactly how to put his ideas into work!

Chris is also a super friendly and funny person, we had such a great time and a lot to laugh about. I was impressed with the first pictures I have seen, well done.

Looking forward to the next shootings, hopefully very soon.

Chris kindly booked me on my Bournemouth tour for a quickie shoot. Although we had some technical difficulties, Chris was incredibly patient and persevered! We came up with a new plan, with Chris thinking fast on his feet, and ended up getting a few keepers! I give him all the credit for being very easy going and chilled out :)

Thanks for being so patient Chris! I hope the next time we work together will go far more smoothly.

I worked with Chris for the first time today and what a pleasure it was!

Pre comms were spot on and he turned up on time. He was very chatty and friendly from the off which I find very comforting.

He's very laid back, funny and easy going.

We had lots of mutual ground regarding the love of animals which was great, we could of chatted all night!

I love how ambitious and creative his mind is regarding future shoots were planning together.

He made sure I was warm and happy during the whole shoot offering to take breaks which is fab as we could chat more :)

He made my chaperone also very welcome and involved him in every conversation which to me, is awfully respectful.

Chris is an all round great guy and I'd highly recommend him!

I recently had my first shoot with Chris at my studio weekend at the Art Asylum on my Weymouth tour.

Chris' pre-shoot communications were great and I found him to be friendly, professional and easy to work with.

We worked through a fair few sets, making use of our surroundings and the clothes that I had brought with me.

I thoroughly enjoyed our time together and hope we have the opportunity to work together again in the future.

Definitely recommended! :)

It was a pleasure to meet Chris today, I can happily say that he is the most friendliest person you will meet. He looks after his model during the shoot and will make sure they are comfortable and warm, January is not the warmest time of the year!

Chris will make sure everything is in set before taking an image, patience is a virtue and having that extra patience can go the extra mile for both of us. I was pleased with the images, happily showing me what he has taken during the shoot.

We discussed future ideas he may have and learned a lot about each other in terms of what style we generally like to shoot. I can imagine now that the next shoot will be super epic and I will look forward to our next creative work.

I would highly recommend Chris to other models.

Thank you Chris and I look forward to shooting with you in the future.

I had my first shoot with Chris yesterday at my flat and we had a great time (or at least I did)

Chris is reliable, punctual, professional and most importantly great fun.

Chris is full of enthusiasm and fantastic ideas, we have already started discussing some creative shoots for the future!

Happily recommend to any model

I had my 2nd shoot with Chris on Saturday this time on location - Communication before the shoot was great, he picked me up on time and was well prepared. He brought tea coffee and biscuits which i thought was lovely as it was cold out! We shot for a couple of hours and the time flew by, Chris is creative and has loads of good ideas as well as listening to my input. He is a chatty and we had a laugh as well as getting some awesome images. I would highly reccommend him and hope to work together again soon!

I had my first shoot with Wolf today on location in the New Forest.

Wolf is a lovely, down to earth chap, relaxed and friendly - It really was a pleasure to work with him.

Pre communication was great, all areas were covered so it was a breeze to know what to take and how the shoot was going to run.

Wolf seemed as little nervous of his ability to shoot with a professional model, but he had no reason to be! He gave fantastic direction to me, had a great eye for image set up and most importantly - We got some images out of this shoot!

Thank you Wolf - You should be very proud of yourself!

I would highly recommend working with Wolf!!
