I have had the pleasure to work with Colin numerous times now - and three times at different hotel de vie events! Colin has such amazing wacky crazy ideas that shooting with him is always an enjoyable experience if you know how to let your hair down! I honestly have not laughed so much in ages! - and we got some bloody decent shots! :) IMO! I would defiantly recommend Colin and can't wait to see the images, and no doubt were work together again at some point in the future! :) Thanks for two great shoots yesterday Colin.

I worked with Colin at Hotel de vie, he was very friendly and chatty and I was laughing throughout the shoot. We had the smallest room in the hotel but we both had so many different ideas and tried lots of different styles which turned out very well. The time just flew by aswell, but we got a lot of good stuff done in the time we had.

I would recommend Colin to anyone.

Well what a fun shoot we had! Plus we got so much variety. Colin had all sorts of ideas. I was standing on my chair jumping around and pulling silly expressions. Then we got a lot of rope out and used it in a fashion way! I was tangled in it with Union Jack Doctor Martins on my feet... can't go wrong with that look :)

Had a wonderful shoot with Colin on Sunday! He is a lovely person and a great photographer! We shot in a number of locations around Gosport and took my pet Pom too! Colin was very patient with us both and I hope he got some images of us both posing at the same time! :)

Wonderful photographer and highly recommended! Would definitely work with Colin again, thanks!

I really enjoyed working with Colin. This was my first shoot and Colin made it really fun and easy going! He gave me some great tips (angry brother pose!!) as well as a very informative stroll around Winchester which was a bonus! He has a fantastic eye for a photo and is a really nice chap too! Thank you for a great first shoot, a lovely hot choc and all your help and guidance, I hope we can shoot again soon...

Colin was wonderful to work with. He is very funny and was a great companion as well as photographer. We did a fairly public and somewhat challenging shoot however throughout Colin was professional and focused.

Colin has a great eye for spotting good locations/spots to take a photo and we managed to create a range of interesting images. Colin also came to the shoot with a specific vision in mind and was able to direct me very well and creatively so as to achieve the images he desired.

Thoroughly enjoyed working with Colin on a creative and very unique shoot and would recommend him to all.

I shot with Colin for an hour at the Hotel de Vie event this week.

In that hour we had a total blast. Colin had me standing on chairs, sofas, pulling silly faces and fighting with his ipad whilst trying not to scare the people driving past the window. (You had to be there)....and I had him lying on the floor shooting from the oddest angles with his wide angle lens on-! Haha.

We ended up doing some quite glammy images in the hour- he will say I forced him to do it-! But I actually really enjoyed as it's a bit of a change for the usual stuff for me. :)

Great guy, fun to work with and I hope we can work together again! Thank you Colin! :)

I worked with Colin on a slot day at Hotel de Vie yesterday. He is a kind man who is not afraid to have a giggle and try new things working new angles. I only had a short hour with Colin but I enjoyed modelling for him and he came up with some great stories to shoot to. Hope to see you again in the new year Colin :)

Had another great shoot with Colin at the Hotel de Vie! Colin is a great photographer, and no matter what, you know your always going to have a fun shoot if Colin's involved. Can't wait to see the pics - being last to shoot with Colin he took advantage and got me soaked! It was a pleasure as always, and hopefully were work together again next year :)

Modelled for Colin's photography workshop this evening. Everyone seemed to take in Colin's advice well as the photos I saw from everyone looked great. We did some studio set ups then took the lights onto an indoor location lit by rows of lights behind and unusual shaped structures/benches around which made a good location :)

I had my first shoot with Colin today and from Purple Port too.

He picked me up from the station and took me to the studio.. and dropped me home too. He's a very lovely man and makes you feel comfortable straight away. He helps with poses too if you don't understand what your doing etc. Lovely shoot, can't wait for the pictures!

Colin and I had an hour slot at a recent boudoir hotel shoot - from that one hour i quickly figured how talented colin was, he had some very cool out-there ideas that came out of nowhere for such a limited time in a relatively small room, experimented with diff lighting setups, and seemed to really click in terms of liking concepts and poses that were a bit different. V much enjoyed our slot and would definitely recommend Colin :) x

Have shot with Colin twice before, and this time i had the pleasure of shooting with him at the Hotel de Vie. Colin is a great photographer, very friendly and brought loads of really creative and wacky ideas, cant wait to see the images! :)

Another shoot with Colin, crazy ideas as always! (At least I wasn't jumping in puddles this time!). Luckily for Colin, I think we're on the same weirdness wave-length!

Colin is so much fun to work with and I would highly recommend working with him, I always have such a hoot when we work together and time flys by too quickly! An excellent photographer too!
