I had the pleasure of a first shoot with Leslie recently at Studio88 in High Wycombe and from his initial message through the saying goodbye his communications were outstanding. He provided me with a mood board ahead of the shoot as well as a music playlist to really fit the mood of the shoot.

He was polite, professional and easy going, producing some fantastic shots in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. We also did a few reels which looked amazing and I can't wait to see the final results.

Leslie was an absolute gem, and definitely someone I'd happily recommend and work with in the future.

Thankyou for a wonderful shoot!

Afrofilmviewer is amazing can’t recommend him enough if I’m honest. Made me feel comfortable the whole shoot, gave me good directions and indications of what did and didn’t work and just made the shoot so much fun! As a new model boosted my confidence

So Thankyou can’t wait to shoot again after the new year

It was a pleasure working with Leslie. We were both early so we met for a coffee first to discuss ideas for the shoot. He was very professional and friendly, and overall very pleasant to work with.

I would be more than happy to work with Leslie again!

Today was my first shoot with Leslie at Studio 88, also a first for me as i’ve not shot from this studio before.

Firstly Leslie’s communication is second to none and he really does put a lot of effort into the planning of his shoots tailoring each aspect to his chosen model. Being a PA I really appreciated this.

Having got slightly lost (car park location issues) a smiley Leslie came to find me which instantly put me at ease. On entering the studio I was shown around and given a cuppa which was much needed.

Leslie has a very chilled and cool manor, he is welcoming, warm and chatty. He had lots of ideas for our time together, which I packed according for. And from what I saw off the back of the camera we executed it all wonderfully. I can’t wait to show the world what we created together. Oh he also has great taste in music.

We even filmed a little BHS video which is another first as have never done this “professionally”. So a day of many firsts.

It goes without saying I’d recommend working with this amazing photographer. Thank you for a great day.

Had a quick shoot with Leslie as the weather turned but we made the most of it. He was friendly and professional and I felt comfortable throughout. He has a creative flair and is a deep thinker which added a welcomed dynamic to our conversations. His precomms were good and he knew exactly where we could get get good shots out on location.

Thanks Leslie for a great outdoor shoot.

I worked with Leslie for the first time yesterday and it was an awesome shoot!

Leslie is confident, considerate, down-to-earth and just an all-round lovely person. He is fab at giving direction and feedback throughout the shoot and had lots of great ideas for poses. He took me to a range of beautiful locations which worked really well for the look I had done for the day and outfits I brought along.

I really love the images I have seen. Leslie has a beautiful style of photography.

I wouldn't hesitate to work with Leslie again, 100% recommended!

Thank you for a fab day 🙂

What a fab shoot with Leslie! He was a professional and friendly person with great communication before and after the shoot. When I arrived he was helpful and full of ideas. He is knowledgeable and shared his ideas throughout. He was fun, chatty and laid back. Made me feel very comfortable from the beginning.

Absolutely recommend and would love to work with him again on some other creative ideas!

Lesley is simply amazing!

His pre-comms were excellent, we had been chatting and organising for a while so knew what we were planning to get out of our shoot. A very easy-going photographer who can make time fly, shoot with Lesley if you can, he’s the best!

I loved how logical, communicative, professional and friendly Les is.

During pre-coms we discussed doing a corset fantasy look at Burford Manor in Kent. We managed to this and two other looks and even added a "wedding feel" to them which was a lovely unexpected twist. I would definitely love to work with Les again someday soon 🖤

Had a great first shoot with Les at studio 88

Had my first shoot with Les in the studio.

Pre communication with Les was brilliant, I knew what we were shooting and had a great idea of his character even before meeting.

He met me from the station on the day after keeping in touch during my journey giving even more time to discuss the shoot on the short walk to the studio.

The photos are stunning! Not a single one I didn't like. This is definitely due to Les both allowing me to have creative freedom at the same time as giving directions to get the best shots.

Honestly can't fault the guy, would recommend him to any model.

Had my first shoot with Les today - great guy, very friendly and welcoming.

Les had lots of great ideas and knowledge, we got tons of amazing shots in little time. We had lots of laughs and chats between sets - all round great experience.

Would love to shoot with Les again - 10/10 recommend!

I had the absolute pleasure of meeting and shooting with Les for the first time yesterday at Studio88. Pre-comms were great and I knew the details of our shoot beforehand, including reference images so I knew what kind of clothing to bring with me. Les is such a lovely guy and really fun to work with. He's easy going, relaxed and totally professional and respectful. We managed to fit in several different looks and sets throughout our shoot and the photos I saw on the back of his camera looked amazing! Les knew how to use the light beautifully - using a mixture of natural light and studio lighting and rearranged the sets and props available in the studio to make great backdrops. We had a good giggle and I felt completely at ease and comfortable. He is a highly creative and passionate photographer who has a great eye for detail and he gets into different positions and angles to take his photos. He gave great direction but also allowed me to pose freely and give my own input too.

I highly recommend Les and would certainly love to shoot with him again! :D
