Worked with Cariad on another remote shoot (this was our 8th), and as usual, she did a fabulous job. We finished all the originally planned items in less than half the time I'd budgeted, and were able to get far more looks than I anticipated--she came prepared for everything we had planned and a lot more.

She's organized, poses wonderfully, has a great range of expression, is unflaggingly energetic and enthusiastic, and is a joy to work with.

Highly recommended!

I had the pleasure of working with Cariad again yesterday, our 3rd shoot together and my first shoot of 2023. Caz is a truly outstanding model and a lovely person, always delightful to work with and always produces amazing images. She is beautiful, talented, totally professional and great fun. She poses brilliantly either with or without direction and she makes the photographers job very easy and completely enjoyable. I honestly can’t recommend her highly enough and I look forward to many more shoots together.

Don't hesitate, book a shoot with her asap, you'll be very glad that you did.

Thank you Caz, for a truly wonderful start to the year.

I agree with all the comments made below by Daveed.Cariad was just amazing and understood very quickly the type of image I was trying to create. She "worked the lights" creating some outstanding images.

Looking forward to the next shoot.

I had the opportunity to work with the lovely Cariad a few days ago, on a remote session at her home. We'd discussed the concepts, but were going to keep the details open and see what came from the theme, and she did an absolutely fabulous job. Relaxing in comfort, upside down, stretching--all beautifully and cheerfully done.

She's always been a joy to work with, and the results have always been delightful. Highly recommended!

I shot with the wonderful Cariad again at her Invoking the Masters event at Inspire Studios.

What as amazing event! It was one of the best events I've been one. Superbly organised with beautifuly designed handcrafted sets and backdrops, 3 excellent models, Cariad, Gemma Huh & Maryna Sedin in a fabulous range of costumes.

The day ran very smoothly with very friendly and relaxed atmosphere.

Cariad is one of my favourite models to shoot with and she didn't disapoint! She naturally poses, taking advantages of the sets and lighting. She brings emotion to her posing that brings the images alive

Thanks Cariad for inviting me to this event and I hope we shoot again soon!

Following a cancellation, Phil from The Boardroom recommended Cariad who was very quick to respond and keen to work together.

Super friendly from the moment she arrived and completely at ease and understanding over what the shoot was aiming for, we hit it off and got some great images. She's happy to chat throughout which always makes any shoot so much more fun and relaxing.

Can't thank Cariad enough for stepping up at such a last minute and being amazing to work with. Would highly recommend her and am looking forward to working with her again.

I spent a wonderful full day with Cariad on location in the Peak District. She brought along a selection of beautiful styled outfits that matched the autumn colours in the countryside

Cariad is always a joy to work with, full of energy, enthusiasm and creative ideas. Her posing is graceful and natural, and she is very agile and was confident enough to get into seemingly impossible locations on rocks in the middle of fast flowing streams

Cariad’s partner Kieran was always available to provide help and support

I’ve already booked an overseas trip with Cariad next year and cannot recommend her more highly

Had another wonderful remote session with Cariad a few days ago. Portraits and such, in a diverse mix of styles.

Cheerful, professional, well-organized, photogenic, talented...there's a very long list of superlatives that apply, and I'm always delighted with the session and the results.

Very highly recommended!

I've shot with Cariad a number of times over recent months the latest of which was at Prestwold Hall. As ever, Cariad delivers every time. Wonderfully graceful. charming, athletic, poised and professional Cariad is always a delight to shoot with.

Like Northernphotographer, I worked with Cariad at Pavilion Studios.

Cariad is fantastically creative, has a super 'can do' attitude, combined with a great wardrobe.

She has a lovely personality and is an absolute joy to work with.

If you have the opportunity- book her, you won't regret it!

Oliver Godby

Cariad is quite simply a delight to work with. She brought a wonderful collaborative and positive energy to the shoot, so that even though this was our first time working together I was able to create results that have absolutely met my aspirations. On top of the images being great it was a genuine pleasure to work together - I would strongly recommend her to anyone looking for a professional and confident model. Thanks so much Cariad!

This was my first time shooting with Cariad and she is a delight to work with. Good comms and brought everything we agreed.

On the shoot really easy going, good communications and even thought she was suffering some mild food poisoning still managed to create some beautiful images. Super professional and kept going on the shoot even though I offered to slow down / stop when she was not feeling well.

I am already looking forward to her next trip to Scotland.

I had the pleasure of shooting with Cariad at her model day hosted by Pavilion Studio.

A beautiful and charming young lady.

Great poses over a variety of genres.

Fantastic selection of outfits.

I have shot with many models over the years and without hesitation can say Cariad is one of the best.

If you want beautiful images Cariad is the perfect choice .

After my all-day shoot with Ms Celis it would be easy to leave the shortest-ever reference for her. I could just say 'Cariad is absolutely bl**dy brilliant'. But I s'pose I should expand on that...

Ms Celis is highly skilled, hugely creative, full of energy and enthusiasm, versatile, works hard to give the best possible results, has a great eye for styling, is a very lovely down-to-earth person (definitely no Diva!) with a keen sense of humour, and is very easy to get along with.

Despite all that she has one bad point. It's that she lives bl**dy miles away from me. That's very inconsiderate of her. If she lived closer I'd be able to book her again and again and again. Yep - she was THAT good to work with and the shoot was THAT productive and enjoyable.

As always Cariad is great to shoot with. Her knowledge is boundless and using that knowledge Cariad is always full of good ideas to help at any shoot. Cariad is delightful to work with she will take direction come up with some of her ideas, I always love shooting with her. A wonderful, fantastic lady.

Thanks Cariad

My first shoot with Cariad went like a dream. She is friendly and so easy to work with, willing to go with any ideas I might have and at the same time work hard to get the images I wanted. My first shoot with her won't be the last, thoroughly recommended, thank you Cariad.

jmfriedman

She was wonderful. I have no complaints about Cariad; she was on time, ready to work, although shooting with her is hardly work. We talked about everything and that is important to me, to connect on a personal level; I want someone who is not just an object to shoot but someone I like. Since it's a remote shoot it's not like in person but we make what we can with it, and with her and her partner Kieran to help and assist it was a very quick 2 hrs. Do yourself a favor and contact Cariad for a great partner in shooting and you will be more than satisfied in the results. Right now I can't wait for our 2nd shoot.

I enjoyed the very great pleasure of a first shoot with Cariad and her partner Kieran. A choice of options was available, and I chose to visit a number of locations in the Peak District.

Journeys together were full of affability and varied conversation, including the choice of locations we could visit.

Once we got to work Cariad showed just how good she is, with a succession of beautiful, seemingly effortless poses. Any location could be turned into something special, simply by her presence. :)

She was delightful to work with, time flew by, and I ended up with a succession of beautiful images to take away. :)

We ran over, so that I might have missed my booked train, but a diversion took me to a different station where I caught it! Thank you.

I had such an enjoyable time. Cariad is a great professional, excelling at everything she does and, is a thoroughly nice person as well. She is very highly recommended, and I hope to have the pleasure of working with her again.

I had the pleasure of working with Cariad on a photoshoot at Prestwold Hall. She states in her profile that she is "happy, easy going and creative" and that is certainly the case. I would add that she is also totally professional, fun, and works hard to ensure photographers get the shots they are looking for. Shooting both inside and out Cariad showed versatility in posing, and i was very happy with the end results. Highly recommended.
