Andrew and I had a really fun shoot at my home this week. We had a bit of a strange theme which only got stranger as the shoot progressed, which was a good thing! Pre-comms were clear and on point and Andrew came well prepared with lots of goodies. :D

Andrew is very professional, with loads of ideas and really easy to get on with. So far the images are looking fantastic and I think we both got something really cool stuff for our portfolios.

I would happily work with Andrew again and 100% recommend him to any other model!

Cheers Andrew! :)

Andrew and I met a while back during a shoot he assisted on and we became great pals.

During my trip to Cardiff I found myself with a few hours to spare and Andrew offered to take me to the bay and do a little shoot plus give me some tuition on my own photography.

Andrew is a lovely genuine talented man, he taught me in a way that just made it click, for weeks I have faffed around with buttons and generally buggered things up but the way Andrew explained it made it seem easy and I really got it.

Patient and kind Andrew is a pleasure to shoot for and a great model himself! He allowed me to photograph him and the results are pretty good, I'm trying to convince him to start his own profile!

Andrew took images of me also and was kind enough to explain each step of the process from lights to Bokha, not only did we achieve some great shots for my port I left with a wealth of knowledge and my first images as a photographer.

We have arranged to shoot again and I can't wait, Thanks Andrew you are a star xxx

Andy offered me a night time/ beach boho shoot in the middle of the week- which I normally wouldn`t do but when I saw his fab work and references I had to take this opportunity! I didn`t regret it for a single sec!

Our pre-shoot comms were reallly good- Andy always replied to my texts and he was always happy to help. He`s got a real styling feel and he knows what we wants from shoot and form the model but he also want to hear form models regarding ideas, posing etc.

Andy is a true gentelman, and have a great sense of houmor. Shooting with him is a true pleasure, Even when he struggled form cold he stayed professional and he gave me his coat when it was bit chilly.

His passion for photography is amazing which you could see by images created by him. I totally love our shoot result and hopefully I`ll have a chance to work with him very soon even if we live not that close to each other :)

I would highly recommend Andy to everyone who`d like to try something new or want to get stunning night images!

Thank you so much for our shoot, and see you soon :)

Andrew contacted me a while ago and expressed an interest in working together. After seeing some of his great work on PurplePort I was delighted at the prospect.

We met more recently at one of the Bristol socials where he showed me more of his captivating images. Andrew is very passionate about photography and enthusiastic about creating something original.

Having agreed a date for an evening shoot with him in Cardiff, I was very much looking forward to breaking new ground and creating something special.

After briefly discussing the theme so that I could plan my attire we were able to execute a fantastic shoot that was even better than planned with Andrew even bringing his Mazda MX5 along which made for a great prop!

When it comes to shoots, Andrew is very much quality over quantity so glad to have had the opportunity and definitely recommend working with him if you get the chance! :-)

Andrew answered a casting call I'd made, looking for "new" people to shoot with. Even though we'd already met at the Gloucester social, I was a bit nervous as it'd been ages since my last 'proper' shoot! I need not have worried - Andy dove right into the wardrobe, pointed out the things he liked the look of and we got to it. Andy was patient with my gurning, gave great suggestions and didn't seem put off by the neighbours having a good look while we were shooting in the street! I think we've managed to get something unique for our ports with no stress and look forward to the next time! Highly recommended.

Myself and MsJoLe had the pleasure of having Andrew over for a very last minute shoot. I cannot recommend this gentleman enough! The day was very relaxed and we had a brilliant laugh throughout, this guy has a great sense of humour - but I won't mention shower caps ;). I found Andy very helpful and he has inspired me to try lots of different styles in future. Thank you Andrew for a fantastic day, can't wait to sort another shoot in the near future! Top bloke.

MsJoLe

Met up with Andrew on Friday at an exhibition and was hoping to arrange a future shoot.... I didn't expect it to take place so quickly on Sunday afternoon, and I'm still beaming now, what a day we had :).

Andrew is such a gentleman, true professional, down to earth and has a fantastic sense of humour. Being such short notice we had no firm plans and Andrew was great coming up with ideas. I felt so at ease, even when I was taken out of my comfort zone and I feel I benefited and learned so much from his expertise. The whole day went so quickly as we were having such a blast, it was pure enjoyment and a pleasure to work with him. Andrew I simply cannot wait for another day of fun and creativeness.

Would I recommend Andrew? 100% in a heartbeat, this guy is fantastic.

Anna Baldwin MUA

Had my fourth shoot with Andrew a fortnight ago with the beautiful Bluey. we managed to capture some fantastic shots, even though it was freezing and I'm looking like a crazy cat lady with my 6 layers on!! 😂😂 it was a fun day and I look forward to seeing the rest of the edits. 😃😃

Bluey

I had my first shoot and very much looking forward to it for a few months with Andy and Anna Baldwin! And it was a very smooth and fun day!! Cold though!! Andy was very patient (preparation always takes a little while....), chatty, funny and friendly. Great professional, very kind and very easy to work with, giving good direction but giving a lot of freedom too!

I love the images so far and can´t wait for more!! :) Doll look I wanted for long time....very pleased and happy!!

Thank you so much Andy!! Looking forward to work with you again and have another amazing shoot!!

Oh.....definitely.....Highly recommended!!! :))))

Andy and I have chatted for a while about arranging a joint shoot with a model, with a view to my learning the basics of location lighting, and this was the result

Andy is not only a delightful shooting companion, he is also a patient and knowledgeable teacher. . Had a great time and I hope we will repeat the experience soon.

Third shoot with Andy :)

I feel so lucky that I had the opportunity to work with Andy again, Andy was fantastic and give me good direction during the shoot. we did a couple sets of latex styles out on location - which is something that I've wanted to add to my portfolio for some time - so a big thank you for that. It was a very cold evening but nothing stopped us from getting the 'shots' we wanted! Thanks to Andy's patience, good direction and good laughs we got the results we wanted!

Thanks so much!! Top man, I highly recommend :)

Had a shoot with ANH back in Feb. Pre shoot comms very spot on. Very organised and professional. We shot at virtuosity And did corsets and latex. He was a dab hand at doing up corsets and gave me some great tips on where to get good corsets. I found him to be very easy going and friendly, he was happy to shoot anything I liked but I think his favourite was the Corset shots LOL! He had not shot latex much before and jumped in the deep end happily shooting my full latex backdrop, he did a marvellous job too.

I would highly recommend shooting with this chap and shall be posting and blogging about out shoot soon.

Thanks for the shoot and the wonderful photos, it was a pleasure to work with you

Robin French

Another fun filled shoot with Andrew the other day, this time on is fantastic yacht doing the lighting for a Boy/Girl shoot with Mr Darkside and Kes Wild. As always the lighting and camaraderie was great making for a good working partnership and some rather fantastic images. It was always going to be a tight squeeze though we managed to get things just right technically and our models making all the right moves.

Look forward to working with him again soon, If you want to work with him book now as he is booked months in advance, Highly recommended of course.

MrDarkside

Andy assisted Robin French, shooting Kes Wild and me. He was so much more than an assistant - he let us shoot on his yacht. He's a top bloke, up for a laugh and a joke and knows exactly what he's doing. I really appreciate you givng up your yacht, your time and your skills. Cheers Andy!

Everly Rose

I had the pleasure of meeting Andy yesterday when he assisted Robin French during a shoot with myself and Mr Darkside above Andy's beautiful yacht.

I felt extremely privileged to work with Andy and for him to allow us to shoot on his beautiful yacht.

Andy is a lovely guy so warm and friendly making me feel at home straightaway. Andy and Robin are a proper double act and had me in absolute stitches all day.

Andy sorted the lighting for the shoot and was like a monkey climbing around the deck on shelves and in cupboards to get the right light for each shot.

Thank you Andy, I can't wait to work with you again on our own shoot I had a fabulous time. Highly recommended. as photographer, lighting master and friend.

Andrew messaged me to say he was in my area and we arranged an evening shoot in my home town. I already knew Andrew from a networking event, therefore made things all the easier! He came to mine and we raked through my wardrobe(s) and box(es) for ideas - we settled on one simple outfit and makeup with lots of accessories.

I showed him the various locations we could use and we managed to get 2 sets in and the shots looked great from back of camera shots. Andrew is fab to work with, really creative with his lighting, and very chatty! I would love to work with Andrew again at some point, I highly recommend him!

Thanks again for visiting cold, dark, windy Dawlish :)

ChezMoi

I've known Andy for a while, so I was really chuffed when he came along to my SinopaRin studio day. He really knows his stuff, so I was happy to let him have free reign on some of the sets to crack on and do his own thing. He's fun and friendly and really contributed to the atmosphere of the day too.

Sinopa Rin

Andrew came along to my workshop at Chez Moi in Cardiff today. He worked really well with the rest of the group and produced some great images. Andrew was a great laugh, laid-back and professional - I'd be delighted to work with him again. Highly recommended.

First time I am Andrew. He is easy to get on person and funny, We all have a good fun day while we shoot. I am happy to work with him again and again.

Robin French

Andrew and I have worked on numerous projects together and are able to share our love of gadgetry/lighting/photography and appreciating quality work. Our roles constantly switch during a shoot, its great having the extra pair of eyes to spot things or to give an added creative input to the set, or planning ideas with the rest of the team as the day progresses.

It has been a delight to be tagged in several FPI's with Andrew either as assitant or photographer, either way we seem to hit the right note to get great images from the combined effort

A good communicator who knows what he wants from a shoot plan, its always done with a smile and good cheer making the time fly by.

Message him now as he is always booked up months in advance, such is the order book. Highly recommended of course.
