I had another fabulous shoot with Steve. As always, it was a fantastic experience filled with fun. Our communication was spot on—we quickly and easily agreed on the location and all the details. Steve was super relaxed and open to ideas and outfits, giving me the freedom to bring whatever I liked. This time, he brought a friend along, making it an even more fun shoot with two photographers, lots of laughs, and great conversation.

I had full freedom to choose my outfits and the backgrounds. Steve came up with a couple of really fun ideas. He brought balloons, which were especially meaningful as they were in Ukrainian colors, and we got some fun shots with them. Throughout the shoot, he played a great playlist, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere.

As always, thank you, Steve, for an amazing shoot. It's such a pleasure to work with you, and I love the photos you sent me. I can’t wait for our next shoot in February. See you soon!

I had such an amazing shoot with Steve in PGD studio during my studio day there!

It was our second shoot and I was so happy to meet Steve again! He is such a fun, friendly, and outgoing person!

Our pre-communication was excellent!

Steve had so many fantastic ideas that he was very happy to share with me! On the day of the shoot, he brought so many fantastic props and outfits that he kindly left for me after the shoot 😍

He was happy for me to suggest my own ideas, choose the outfits, and be creative!

He didn't rush me at all; our entire shoot was very relaxed and fun! We had a great chat and the time flew by quickly!

He was also concerned about my comfort throughout the shoot and did everything to make me feel good!

He gave me the freedom to pose as I wanted but also had his own suggestions, so we got a lot of great shots!

After the shoot, he was so kind to send me some images that look absolutely stunning! 🤩🥰

I was very happy to meet you and I'm excited about the creative possibilities for our future shoots. I'm looking forward to working with you again! Thank you for an enjoyable time, and I hope to meet you again soon! 🥰♥️

We would highly reccomend Steve, a wonderful gentleman and look forward to seeing him again soon!! Thank you Steve!!

I had an incredibly enjoyable shoot with Steve in a Birmingham studio. The pre-communication was amazing. Steve provided a clear idea of what to bring and the type of shots he wanted to create. All of his ideas were cool and promised a lot of fun. I was genuinely excited to work with him.

He was very accommodating, adjusting to my plans and choosing the best time for me, which I greatly appreciated. He met me near the studio and helped with my heavy bag. The studio was very comfortable and well-equipped. Steve had prepared numerous cool props and a fantastic costume for me. We had a lot of fun together creating great shots. He demonstrated great skill in using gels and setting the lighting; all his ideas worked perfectly, and the shots turned out really great. It was a cool, fun shoot brimming with creativity. I'm delighted that we had the opportunity to work together.

Thank you for being so nice, respectful, and polite to me. It was a truly enjoyable shoot, and I look forward to working with you again in the future!

Steve is a lovely guy, who is great fun to be around. He is definitely someone who puts a model at ease when shooting.

Studio 91 Cannock

Steve has been using the studio since June this year. Aswell as participating well in group shoots he has also attended a model day and booked the studio privately.

His communications before the shoot are great, I know exactly what to expect. He turns up on time and always ready to get shooting straight away so there is no messing around.

Steve is a laid back person with a sense of humour - if you shoot with Steve you won't be disappointed!

I find him easy to get along with and he is open to try different styles of shooting.

Thankyou for your support with the studio it is much appreciated... See you soon !! Katy
