Pleased to add my voice to the vast chorus of references for Mischkah. She's relaxed and fun to work with. Mischkah knows a lot about cameras, lights and lighting in addition to her fabulous modelling skills — and I was more than happy to benefit from all of these during the two hours we spent exploring creative options together at Inspire Studios. Immediately after our session, I booked another shoot for a month later; no idea what we'll shoot but I'm sure fun and great photos will come out of it.

I had a fantastic shoot with Mischkah at her Inspire Studio Day. Mischkah developed the theme and posed effortlessly. She is friendly and chatty, whilst being professional and knowledgeable suggesting ideas for lighting and poses, resulting in a set of great images. I highly recommended Mischkah and hope to work with her again soon.

I had a great shoot with Mischkah yesterday. Given my relative inexperience she was very patient and understanding. She also offered some great bits of advice; she really knows what can help make a great shot. The time flew by.

I would love to work with her again and really do here justice once I've upped my photography skills.

What a delightful experience to get to shoot with the charming Mischkah again.

Do not ask what she brings to the table, Mischkah is the table.

Very experienced, very professional, very knowledgeable and a complete joy to spend a few hours chatting and creating magic with such a terrific person.

If you get the opportunity to shoot this lady do not let it go, guaranteed to capture some amazing images and put a huge smile on your face.

If I could recommended more than 100% I would certainly do so.

I was lucky enough to be able to arrange a shoot with Mischkah, a real pleasure to be able to work with her. She's not only a highly skilled model that is able to interpret the space with her poses, she understands how the light is working with the space and how something just a little different can have a big impact on the image. A selection of outfits that were perfect, a joy to work with and undoubtedly one of the very best models around.

This was my third shoot with the undeniably gorgeous and delightful Mischkah and each one lived up to expectations. This was an indoor shoot having previously shot on location. Her artistry makes it almost impossible not to want to shoot her and therefore I envisage that there will be many more shoots in the future. Not only that, her professionalism, relaxed and pleasant nature makes the shooting experience a total joy. Mischkah made me feel comfortable throughout each shoot and apart from being a wonderful model she also contributed by sharing her experience and photographic knowledge around lighting and composition. The result, I now have an amazing collection of awesome images. Because you could never get enough of a good thing I will be adding to this collection again and again.

Thank you Mischkah for helping to make my love of photography so enjoyable.

I had my 2nd shoot with Mischkah on location. She is a top model is great company and always keen to add her thoughts and collaborate resulting in some fabulous results. I will defiantly shoot with her again when she is visiting. Highly recommended. Thank You

Great photoshoot yesterday with Mischkah. She worked really hard to interpret my ideas and creative concepts. Her versatility was excellent and she was a pleasure to work with. I strongly recommend her. Wendy

Superb shoot with Mischkah, her make up was excellent, she worked very hard to interpret my ideas, she was creative and versatile in everything I asked of her. Fun to work with and together we created memorable images, thank you for a great day.

This was my second shoot with Mischkah and what an absolute joy and pleasure it has been working with her again. Today we worked indoors with natural light from skylights and windows in my home.

Not only is Mischkah at the very top as a model, she knows so much about light and experimenting with light that this was like a 1-2-1 workshop. She showed me how to use the space that I have in so many different ways, how the light can be used in those spaces - all things that I hadn't considered.

I cant thank her enough for her knowledge, her patience and her skill as a model. The outfits, the posing for effect all perfect - and we created some amazing images.

I cannot recommend Mischkah highly enough - and if she is not on your list to work with, as yourself why. 100% from me - and I am already looking forward to our next shoot together.

What can I say about this little pocket rocket of a star.

Mischka is always amazing to work with.

Her look is always spot on, her hair is just epic...#bighair

Models flawlessly, understands the shoot idea...and enhances it.

Like a mogwi...keep her fed and watered and it is amazing! I find caramel digestives, Yorkshire tea and Indian food to be best.

She also runs shoots in Norway...and i defo will be booking onto that one in the future for sure!!

I had my first shoot with Misch yesterday. I had looked at her profile a few months ago and hoped that someday I would have the chance to photograph this beautiful woman. But Misch sent out a casting saying she was touring the UK during September and would be in London. So I contacted her and she agreed to travel to me for a shoot.

What a wonderful model with great personality . We chatted over coffee when she first arrived and talked over the type of images I would like to aim for. Then we put those plans into action. During the course of the shoot Misch gave me invaluable advice with lighting and using reflectors with the natural light, also again some advice on my camera settings. Fortunately Misch uses the same make of camera as me. You can never stop learning in my book.

The results are superb. I will have a job when I review them all to pick out my favourites, there are so many really great images. Towards the end of the shoot we spent time shooting art nude against a black backdrop, to me one of the best ways to show the beautiful contours of a woman body, I had hoped we might be able to do some art nude in a woodland setting but the weather prevented us from doing so. Something to do the next time when Misch is over in the UK in the springtime.

I think you can see that I regard Misch as one of the very best models I have photographed and I have no hesitation in saying to other photographers I highly recommend you book this beautiful lady, you will love the experience.

A couple of weeks ago I had an absolutely pleasure of working with Mischkah again at an Inspire Studio. This was our third shoot and I thought I take a risk and do something different: I shot portraits with 24mm lens! I know it sounds creasy and many models would just say “no” to it as results can be quite unflattering. I am so glad Mischkah took a chance on me: I think the results are some of my best images to date!

We had to work hard for it as it is not the usual modelling which Mischkah is so amazing at. This time we had to search for the angles which were just right with even a slight turn of a head ruining the picture. Mischkah was amazing! Patient, brave and creative, she worked with me to discover the hidden beauty the distorted perspective has to offer.

When I got home and look at the pictures on a large screen, I cried. The images were so different to what I usually shot but also so beautiful. This was my first shoot with 24mm lens and Mischkah helped me to find courage to try something new, to break the rules.

I cannot wait to do another shoot with this amazing woman! Thank you for being so brave and creative!

On Wednesday I had a London street shoot with Mischkah. This was my second shoot with this amazing model. A couple of days before I attended a workshop run by Adrian Crook and Carla Monaco there Mischkah was the model. On both shoots Mischkah was incredible. She can look like a different model in every outfit. But what really is striking is Mischkah unique appearance!

I was lucky enough to have this chance to work with this incredible model. I am still looking at the images we made and some of them really move me! The beauty of Misch is so striking and versatile! She can look sweet, romantic, funny girl next door, or as a strong powerful woman; she can look like a high fashion modern model or an exotic queen from the past.

I am completely blown away! We have already booked another studio session to work on reference images for a painting I would live to do of this beautiful woman.

To add to this Mischkah is a true professional, she is extremely good at her job, from preps, outfits and makeup, giving feedback on the images, suggesting looks, but also with all admin related to the business side.

It was such a pleasure to work with Mischkah.

Thank you for incredible photos!

Absolutely loved having Mischkah at the studio and watching her work with the photographers who had booked her, she is extremely knowledgable with lighting and what works best for her which is fabulous. When it came to my shoot with her I was absolutely blown away by the shots we got and love the fact she is massively into styling and creating a great overall outcome from an image. Enjoyed her visit so much she's coming back in October for a studio day! 100% recommend working with her if you sre lucky enough to get the opportunity.

Mischkah modelled for a workshop for the second time for me - it sold out virtually instantly and it was lovely to have her back here. As last time, wardrobe was classy and beautiful, and worked very well with the sets we built for the shoots. Communication was great, and everything very well organised. The images which people got from the workshop were beautiful, and Mischkah made the whole process very easy. I'm looking forward to seeing her again before too long, and highly recommend her to others - she's one of the best!

Just back from a wonderful long weekend spent with this wonderful lady.

When Mischka put up a casting call for shooting with her on location around her base in Trondheim, Norway I just leapt at the chance.

Mishka had clearly put a lot of time and effort into planning and organising the shoot. She picked me up at the airport and chauffeured me between my lovely apartment and all the fantastic shooting locations that she had pre-scouted.

It almost goes without saying that Mishka is a top model, at the very top of her game. Face. Figure. Posing. (OMG, those eyes ...) Top.

Just as important (for me :)) is that Mischka has a photographer's eye and has an innate love for, and understanding of, light and lighting. Some of the locations gave us some challenges with the light but we shared the images, bounced some ideas around, and (and I know I'm biased) solved and nailed every single one.

Only one downside to shooting with this lovely lady - it is going to be a mammoth task sorting through the images - We just got so many stunning shots ... :)

Could not recommend more highly. Cannot wait until our next shoot.

After having worked with Mischkah on location - both indoors and outdoors - I thought it would be best to plan my next shoot with her in a studio. So we did, I took her to a popular studio in the Rotterdam area. As she is very popular here in the Netherlands as well, it turned out that one of my fellow photographers has worked with her at the very same studio. Now that was odd, when she knows her way around the studio immediately!

We mainly did low-key images, which can prove to be difficult to do, but Mischkah was ever so helpful and cooperative to get them right.

At the end of the afternoon I could only reward her by bringing her back to her temporary base - only to let her pick up the bags - and eventually bring her to the railway station. She was to fly home later that evening. She is already planning her return to the Netherlands for yet another tour here, so there will be more opportunities to work with her. Recommended full stop!

Mischkah was very good, in the morning she messaged me when was in the train and she came even 20 minutes early. At the studio she showed me her selection of outfits and must say she has a very good taste. No simple casual clothes but really nice dresses and accessories. I had a (fake-)fur coat I bought for the shoot. I am afraid we did not use it this time but the coat is not with me anymore :) Did exchange it for some of Mischkah's stuff.... But about the shoot it was more than perfect, she really knows how to pose and not just that, she knows a lot about lights. I have been shooting for more than 25 years but today I learned new lighting setups. So yes I recommend Mischkah to other photographers and love to work with her whenever she is back in Holland.

I worked with Mischkah on a trip to the netherlands for the first time. In short: She is a model every photographer could (better should) dream of.

My way of photography is to discuss the details of the shoot before, so that everyone involved has a clear idea of what it will be about. That worked in a very professional and effective way.

During the shoot itself, for me it is important to create an atmosphere, where model and photographer are feeling comfortable and are able to bring in their specific skills to create together the best pictures in this situation. Then both could be part of a creative process, wich get its unique dynamic and drive.

By working with Mischkah this succeeded completly and allowed me to participate from her great experience and skills in posing, handling the light and expressing certain moods by giving her the space and trusting to express herself. We found some common level during our shoot that allows us to benefit from each other. It was a "the sum is more than the two pieces"-experience. This kind of teamwork is what photography is about for me.

On top Mischkah ia a very lovely person, professional and relaxed. We had a great time and got great results.

I can´t wait to work with her again. Highly recommended.
