What a fantastic first shoot! Dan and I worked through 4 completely different set ups in one day... gel lights and bubbles, shaving my head (yes really), edgy smoke machine set and to finish it off we covered me in gold leaf! He is organised, well paced and knows what he wants from a shoot, but equally a very kind guy who you can for sure have a laugh with. His quality of work and character is outstanding, would 100% recommend!

Had a great first shoot with Dan today! Made me feel very comfortable and confident! We managed to get some amazing photos! Had a lovely time with a lot of giggles! Would definitely recommend, very spacious house, can’t wait to see the finished photos!

Thanks again and hope to shoot with you again! :)

Had the absolute pleasure of working with Dan yesterday and he was very welcoming and extremely proffesional when on the shoot. I'm stil fairly new to modelling and i felt very comfortable and at ease the whole time, he gave direction very well and always had a clear artistic vision in mind which resulted in some really beautiful photographs. Would highly reccomend him to any model!

I had my second shoot with Dan yesterday and once again it was such a pleasure!

Dan messaged me with regards to an idea for a shoot and I jumped at the chance of working with him again

Super professional and made me feel comfortable as always

Will always recommend Dan to anyone!

I have shot with Mance twice now. Communication was spot on. His enthusiasm and energy comes across in his texts and of course in person. He knows what he wants and made me feel special by encouraging me throughout the whole shoot.

He is willing to drive to all sorts of locations which shows his dedication and determination to create something extra. The photos I received were great. He is currently in high demand. What I love about his work ethic is that he not only works for himself but brings people together. He has organised a group/networking event bringing photographers and models together which I admire. I can't wait to work with him again. I highly recommend.

Mancey came to shoot at my place a little over or under a month ago now. ( can't quite remember the exact date now)

our minds really connected during the shoot and there was a lot of imagination from both ends of the lens.

I look forward to shooting with you again :)

I had a great first shoot with Dan last week. It was an absolute pleasure. Pre communication was great. On the day of the shoot he collected me from station to drive to his home studio.

In a couple of hours we went through several different sets and style. Very happy with the images.

Dan is professional and very creative person. He had lots of cool ideas, was nice to try them out. He is amazing to work with, very friendly and funny. He makes you feel comfortable and if you going to work with him surely 100% you are going to have a great time.

Hopefully we’ll work together again soon! Thank you Dan :)

I had a brilliant shoot with Dan! He’s such a warm person and so easy to get along with. He had some wicked ideas for shots and pulled them off! The shoot was fun and we got some lovely photos out of it!

Can’t wait for next time!

Second shoot with Dan yesterday and it was great, really enjoyed myself. My boyfriend also had some shots and it increased his confidence. We had a lot of fun, Dan is awesome company, a bloody fab photographer and makes you feel welcome. He is easy to talk to and creative with his work. Full of ideas/props and even makes you food. 😄 Till the next one! 😊

I had my first shoot with Dan today; we decided to shoot for 2 hours on location, prior to the shoot communication was great he knew what kind of style and vibe he wanted which we managed to replicate well.

The shoot itself was really relaxed though Dan was professional and took some really beautiful images, some of which we managed to get really creative with so I'm looking forward to seeing them when they come out :)

Dan was also really easy to talk to and work with, he made sure I was comfortable the whole time and I'd happily work with him again in the future.

Highly recommended!
