Chris is one hell of a guy! Intelligent, down to earth and a master photographer.

On 24th April I did my first ever shoot with him and I was blown away by his versatility, how many photographers do you know that can get quality results in the following genres: urban, athletic, smart casual and suited all in one shoot? Probably not many.

Chris is a master editor and I can't wait to work with him again.

We had previously talked about a dabble in some classical style sheer/ art nude and after our previous shoot decided to plan it for today, well what can I say other than wow! I think me and Chris really upped our game with this one,the lighting and Chris's eye for detail are fantastic I was relaxed from the get go and Chris is always very professional, we had an amazing shoot and I can't shoot again !!

5* definitely recommended

I had a fantastic shoot with Chris today. He's very laid back and great to shoot with. His pre comms were brilliant and he arrived on time. He was very quick to get the images back to me and I'm very pleased with the results.

During the shoot we had great conversations and he made me feel very comfortable from the start. He was patient and very enthusiastic. He's a lovely guy and I would definitely recommend him. I hope to work with him again in the future.

Me and Chris had been talking about using the gobo he got last year for a shoot and we threw some ideas about to see what we thought, we both had a good idea about what we wanted to achieve and sent some mood boards over , this was my first shoot testing new levels for myself such as topless,implied and sheer. Chris was excellent and professional from the get go and made me feel comfortable. The shoot ran really smoothly and we worked really well together. We actually got a lot more out of the shoot than I imagined and it’s been a really great experience on my behalf. Chris is excellent with lighting and angles and communication, quickly set up and polite and respectful. I’ve shot with Chris many times now and the shoots just keep getting better.

Look forward to many more shoots together.

Highly recommend

Chris and I had been talking for a few weeks about shooting, waiting for the weather to play ball, we set up the socially distanced shoot outside. Outdoor nude shoots in January / February take some flexibility working around the rain and freezing temps. A sunny day was forecast so the date was fixed. Chris was of course on time, and talking with him before the shoot it was obvious he knew what he was doing. Chris had to work around the low winter sun, which created deep shadows, Chris used these shadows to accentuate the images building on them, and adjusting my position to suit the way they fell across me.

It was a great shoot and the images seen so far are really great. Love to shoot with Chris again, and 110% recommended.

Excited to see the images we created, I don't doubt we created some amazing results!

I didn't want our shoot today to end!!

Chris is great, instantly a super friendly and likeable photographer that you can immediately lean into a confident and comfortable shoot with.

We were shooting socially distanced and outdoors, and the entire way through he was perfectly respectful and exercised caution.

I honestly had so much fun! We were trying out some new things and I'm so excited to see the results. I'm definitely keen to shoot with him again, he was great to chat to and I feel like we could have talked all day/night if it hadn't gotten so cold and we needed to stop shooting!

Sincerely recommend 100%!

Thanks Chris :)

Chris is brilliant to work with. He has the utmost respect for his models and was always conscious of my safety and comfort throughout the shoot. His creative ideas concerning where to position me as I posed have resulted in a series of wonderful images, and his skilled use of lighting and choice of angles really made the most of the location we were in. Chris has a fantastic sense of humour and is a joy to chat with, and time flew by. Definitely someone I would like to work with again.

Me and Chris had been planning this shoot for a while so alot went into this shoot from behind the scenes! Regardless with the challenge of sourcing what we needed he put in alot of effort he handmade fairy wings for our shoot for a really unique experience, his precoms are excellent and is always early for some pre shoot prep, this was his first time using smokes and we got some really amazing shots all the way through, 5 hours worth of shooting over two locations which we both agreed on, really pleased with this shoot and I really admire Chris's strive to learn new things and experiment, Chris is an amazing photographer with alot of respect for models, always goes that extra mile. Chris is a close friend of mine and a really great tog.

5* would definitely recommend.

I had a fantastic shoot with Chris, pre comms were great, exactly as they should be which really helps in looking forward to a shoot. On the day Chris was early, and had chosen a superb location. Chris is a really interesting guy, time passed so quickly and we had lots to talk about, whilst also creating some fantastic images! He is very respectful to his models, has lots of creative ideas and was very good at executing them. I loved working with Chris and already looking forward to shooting again, hopefully soon

Highly recommend

Incredible shoot with Chris this afternoon.

Chris responded to casting call for a gym wear shoot but we were let down with the location, we quickly rearranged and Chris’ communication was spot on so we managed to sort it really easily!

As soon as the shoot started I was comfortable straight away. Chris is so down to earth and really easy to talk to. He is very non-judgemental and we could chat freely together.

He listened to my ideas brilliantly and responded perfectly! The shots from the back of the camera were great and I’m excited to see them completed!

I absolutely will work with Chris again and I recommend him to anyone and everyone!

Chris came to the studio to shoot with Amie Bolton on one of Chris Conway's events and although I didn't have much time to chat to him, he seemed really nice and chatty and looks like he came away from the shoot with some lovely images.

Would happily see Chris back in the studio again.

Beast Awakens

Chris messaged me enquiring about my availability for a group shoot in an abandoned prison. Pre-comms were good, the day was a lot of fun, we got all the shots he wanted, and we worked well together to come up with some good ideas! Would definitely recommend and would like to work with him again! 😁

Phoenixjade

Spoke to Chris about arranging a shoot and he was excellent at replying and throwing ideas between us. On meeting Chris he was lovely and welcoming easy to chat too and professional, completely understood my levels and made sure I was okay with things, truly a great photographer, caring and professional I highly recommend

LauraAnne Photography Studio

Chris attended our Studio Taster Day today and he is a lovely chap. The day was aimed at providing just a snapshot of what you can do in a studio and Chris had a go at various light set ups. He is very chatty and respectful of the model we had for the day. I would welcome him back and I hope he got some super shots to show him what can be achieved in a studio.

Enchanted Evermore Styled Workshops

Chris came on our "Song of Light" workshop and a Taster Workshop "Summer Fade". His pre-comms were great and he was very pleasant, polite and helpful throughout the workshop. He worked very well with the model and it was an absolute pleasure to have him there on both workshops. We've already seen many of his images and they are beautiful! We look forward to seeing more and having Chris at our future workshops. Definitely recommended.
