It was brilliant getting the chance to work with Darren on 2 shoots ver the easter weekend. He is a passionate, friendly and talented photographer and really open to suggestions and interested in others points of view. He created some stunning images and braved some terrible conditions with a positive attitude and a smile on his face. A real pleasure and I really do hope to work with Darren again soon. Highly recommended.

I had the honour of working with Darren for a second time a couple of weeks ago on a one to one tuition session with Kris Karl. From our first shoot, I could tell in that short space of time how much he has improved. He is always a gentleman, and very considerate of his models, especially when they're out in the cold! He even bought some wardrobe ideas of his own, and was very well prepared. I love the images I have seen so far from this shoot and I hope to work with Darren again in the future!

I have worked with Darren several times and each time he just gets better and better.

I worked with him again on my studio day over the weekend and was just amazed at the results we produced with the different lighting.

Darren is always so organised and shoots are well planned in detail from styling to poses etc so you know exactly what he wants to achieve on the day to make the most of the shoot.

He is very professional , really easy going and friendly and always a pleasure to work with.

I would 100% reccommend him to other Models,, his photography is always improving and he creates beautiful images and works hard to ensure the lighting is perfect!

He even bought me a big box of chocolates which was extremely kind of him!

Hope to work with again sometime thank you Darren for another fantastic shoot!

We bounced ideas off each other and he gave good direction when needed. I would highly recommend Darren and I would love to work with him again in the future.

I worked with Darren yesterday on a studio day at the Hallam Mill and he was a pleasure to shoot with.

He was very enthusiastic and eager to shoot. He gave great direction as well as letting me pose freely.

He was friendly, easy to get on with as well as very professional.

I would love to work with with Darren again and would recommend him to anyone.

Darren booked me on my studio day at Ariane. Pre communication was good, he knew exactly what he wanted. Great to work with, can't wait to see the images.

Highly recommended!

Had a really great shoot with Darren yesterday. Right from the first email he was friendly and knew what he wanted to achieve, sending me a helpful brief and confirming in the week before the shoot.

Darren arrived punctually and was well prepared, with his kit and ideas, and was friendly and relaxed from the start. We had a cup of tea and discussed where to start, and Darren was very engaging, asking me for my input, as well as suggesting his own great ideas.

Throughout the shoot he was sociable and easygoing, making me feel relaxed and involved with helpful feedback on the images we were creating and chatting to me.

I really enjoyed the shoot, and am positive Darren went away with some great pictures :).

Highly recommended, and hope to see him again soon,

Carla Monaco

I worked with Darren on Sunday and he was a complete delight to shoot with and to talk too.

Darren came with his own idea's which was great but he also listened to mine and the make-up artist suggestions too which lead to some great images created by Darren.

Darren is very easy going, lovely personality and he shows a lot of passion for his art as-well as respecting the model he works with.

I can only highly recommend Darren, hope we can work together again

Thank you

Carla :)

I had the pleasure of working with Darren over the bank holiday weekend with the beautiful Carla Monaco. Communication prior to the shoot was outstanding and I was more than impressed with Darren's schedule of themes and make up looks days beforehand. It meant that on the day I could make a start before he arrived because I had such a clear idea of what he wanted from the shoot.

Darren was extremely patient with me whilst I did the make up and hair changes. It's so refreshing when a photographer understands how much care and attention to detail that is required in my role.

Had a sneaky peek behind the scenes and Darren knows his stuff ! The mood, the lighting, the rapport he created with Carla was absolute perfection. He is am amazing photographer but also a very down to earth guy with so much time to talk to you and appreciate's everyone involved in the shoot. I really hope to work with him again.

Darren it was an absolute pleasure to meet you and work with you. The shots of Carla are absolutely amazing I am so grateful you gave me the opportunity to play a part in such a fab shoot ! I hope to see you soon. You are a lovely person.

Love Sarah xxx

I worked alongside Darren on a model shoot yesterday and have to say it was a pleasure photographing with someone who is so passionate about his work. He fully planned the shoot and organised everything in advanced. We shared ideas and I think we both managed to get some amazing shots

Photographers - if you get the chance to work with Darren - fully recommended

Models - Darren is fun to work with and has a very professional attitude to what he does

TipTop Photo-Training

Darren works out of our studio on a regular basis - he is a lovely friendly chap who treats the studio and his models with respect. He has attended many of our model days and more recently hired the studio for his own project with a model. Darren is welcome here anytime.

I had a great time today shooting with Darren at the awesome TipTop studio in Birmingham. He is a lovely man and very organised! I felt totally at ease and enjoyed carrying out various ideas whilst still being allowed to pose freely. I would definitely work with him again, highly recommended.

I had a fantastic shoot with Darren at my home studio the other day. He is a really enthusiastic, friendly, creative and fun Photographer, he came with lots of great ideas and pre shoot communication and planning was 100%.

The time flew by and we had a few breaks inbetween to review images and try some different lighting set ups,

We created some fun shots and its clear he really loves his photography, and is insightful and creative.

Was just a really enjoyable shoot, Darren was really respectful, professional and all round a great guy.

We have already booked in another shoot to try some different ideas/ concepts and lighting, and Im really looking forward to working with him again :)

Highly reccommended, thank you Darren!
