I worked with Viv at Studio Five earlier this week, our second shoot of the year and it was great fun - as always!

Viv kindly invited me along to a 'mini' group shoot with him and Peter Francis. We covered some fashion and lingerie. Viv also brought some pieces along including a gorgeous red gown which I was lucky enough to wear!

It was such a great shoot; lots of laughs and the time just flew by. I always love shooting with Viv and highly recommend him to other models. Thank you Viv. :)

I had an amazing shoot with Viv while hosting a model studio day at Kempston Studio and hopefully we will get an opportunity to work together again one day! :)

Viv was such a joy to work with!!! :D Shoots with Viv are never boring or normal, quite the opposite! I think it's fairly safe to say that Viv's ideas are one of the most extraordinary and unique I've ever come across - and I absolutely love every single one of them! :) Working with Viv is like going on an adventure, you just never quite know what you're going to stumble upon.. :D

Viv is such a lovely person to work with! So friendly, polite, respectful and just sweet! He always brings a bag or two full of clothes and props, so the model doesn't have to worry about it much. We always have so much fun executing his ideas and the results are even more entertaining to look at! :)

Thank you so much, Viv and I'm looking forward to working with you again in the future! :) ♥

I feel like Viv did most of the hard work on today's shoot! I did say I was going to write this too! :D

Today's shoot at Betty Noir was a different dynamic. Viv created a shoot plan with specific ideas for composites he was looking to create. Viv let me know what outfits to bring before the shoot and we also used some of Hannahs wonderful outfits at the Studio, especially for the circus set.

As Viv had set looks for today's shoot. We worked through the plan, creating the correct poses needed so the composites will hopefully work correctly. There was alot of time where Viv was setting up the shot, working out lighting and angles and then I would pose to create the image.

We worked efficiently and Viv said he got through more of his ideas than expected which is great. Viv and I always have a laugh and we are a good team on a shoot.

Viv always thinks of the model and is very courteous. He is a pleasure to shoot with. I am very curious as to how some of the composites will turn out once Viv has worked his magic on them!

Thank you for a very entertaining afternoon Viv, I can't wait to see the end results :) x

Had another great shoot with Viv on Friday; it was lovely to work together again as it had been a little while since our last shoot.

As usual Viv turned up very well prepared and with some fantastic ideas for the shoot. I had a lot of fun posing and using different expressions, which Viv is always very encouraging of.

The images looked fabulous on BOC, I look forward to seeing the final edits.

Viv is a talented photographer, and a fun, kind person to be around. I highly recommend him to other models.

Thanks for a great shoot Viv! :)

This was my third shoot with Viv and as always he is so easy to work with

His love for Ballet and the classics is very refreshing and I could talk to him for hours about all things ballet!

We had a great shoot at my self hosted Dance Duo Day at PGD Photography in Leicester.

I have been seeing some images and they are fabulous as always

Looking forward to seeing you again soon! :)

This was my second shoot with Viv at a studio day at f8 and as always Viv is a delight to work with. He comes well prepared but very happy to go with the flow which I really appreciate. He has a great sense of humour and is always a team player, making him a dream to have on group shoots.

I would highly recommend working with him and I can't wait to do so again soon! :)

I had another truly lovely shoot with Viv earlier this week, when he booked me for a shoot at Far Forest Studio.

Viv suggested a wide range of different styles for the shoot, so it was an exciting and creative few hours together. We started with a ghost look in the studio’s mock graveyard, then shot some bellydance inspired images with a focus on movement. We then finished with some Old Hollywood inspired style, using dramatic lighting to get an authentic feel.

Vic’s photography style is spontaneous and experimental and I absolutely love shooting with him. It was, in particular, a lot of fun to try capturing multiple ghostly figures in one image… something we managed to pull off beautifully!

Viv, as always, was an absolute delight. He’s such a kind, funny soul and is wonderful company. Time with him always flies by, and this shoot was certainly no exception.

I’d recommend Viv to other models wholeheartedly, and I look forward to more shoots with him in the future! Thanks so much Viv 😊

Viv booked on the Monika Lara Smith studio day(s) and it was like old friends meeting again after 10 years conversation and jokes flowed as much as the modelling and photography. Viv always brings a range of weird and wonderful props with him and Monika was happy with the way the shoot went.

Viv knows his way around a camera and studio and happy to recommend again

It was a real pleasure to have Viv along at a workshop that Kate Pop and I hosted at SS Creative in Birmingham.

He's clearly a highly competent photographer, and made good use of the time in the studio, picking up the ideas and developing them nicely.

Very importantly, his approach to Kate was respectful and supportive.

I hope we'll meet again soon.

VIV

What a great guy and a truly creative photographer.

Viv has been to the studio now on several occasions and always brings an array of props and clothing for his models to use.

Viv puts a lot of thought into his shoots and this pays dividends, as he always manages to get some real thought provoking images.

I always look forward to Viv shooting at the studio.

I can highly recommend Viv 100%

Have a great shoot with Viv at Rawpics studio. Viv had come with different outfits and props on the day and we tried different concepts as result we got outstanding images. And he allowed me to pose freely and was great at communicating his ideas.

I highly recommend Viv to any model

Lovely to have Viv in the studio, Viv arrived in plenty of time for his shoot with MDS and soon they were laughing and chatting as if they had known each other for ages.

Viv is relaxed with his shoot and always polite and respectful to his model using his own ideas but also happy to welcome the models ideas too.

Happy to recommend Viv and looking forward to see him again soon

A great guy to be around and work for...

Viv brought loads of props including a sailors hat made out of newspaper (as soon as I saw this I knew it was going to be a good shoot)...

We were bouncing off each others ideas so well and before you know it the shoot was over :-(...Time went so quick...

Would I work with Viv again? Most definitely...

I worked with Viv for the second time yesterday and really enjoyed our shoot together! Viv joined me for my studio day at Skylark Studio, and he had plenty of ideas to create and made the most of the various areas of the studio.

He even bought lots of extra props along so we had a lot of variety to shoot and could get a bit creative.

Always a pleasure working together, and look forward to what we create in 2023 :)
