Was invited to an outdoor event by Alan and the model Esi to shoot a couple of medieval/fantasy ideas. Alan is a complete gentleman and so easy to work with. Communications beforehand were excellent and Alan has wide range of knowledge and ideas that always help the shoot reach its full potential. Top bloke and i would 100% recommend working with him. Many thanks 👍

I had a photoshoot with Alan last week, and it was amazing! He responded to one of my fantasy casting calls, and from the start, our communication was spot on; we had a clear idea of what we wanted to create. On the day of the shoot, Alan went above and beyond, bringing hot tea and cookies. He was very professional, and I felt completely safe. We laughed so much, and the results are fantastic!

I would recommend him to any model out there!

Alan was one of the first TOGs I worked with when I started out, and what a pleasure it was to see how far we have both come in the past several years.

So glad I got to work with him again. Super fun shoot, and I want to thank him for allowing me to explore more dreamy themes.

Thank you 😁

I got a chance to work with Alan for the first time last weekend as he approached me for a location shoot near Sheffield. :)

Just by pre-comms, I could tell that Alan is kind, attentive and professional. He gave me all the details I needed to know to plan this shoot, including the moodboard (which I absolutely love to have!)

Although I have never worked with Alan before we built a very good rapport on the day. He is unintentionally funny, I don't remember the last time I laughed this much on the shoot :D Plus, his creativity speaks volumes in his portfolio.

Basically, I really enjoyed working with Alan for the first time and if you get an opportunity to, I definitely recommend :)

I shot with Alan in June at my home studio @berryhillstudio he was truly wonderful a lovely man he travelled all the way across the country to work with me

I really love his creative brain. Such unique and incredible ideas. Right up my street. We shot a range of weird and wonderful things and I love the results

His portfolio is outstanding

Pre communication was easy and from the get go you can get a feel for the type of person he is. Super kind and lovely

I loved working with Alan and would highly recommend him to others

Thanks Alan 🙏🏼

First time shooting with Alan and it was a very relaxed experience and had a great time bouncing ideas and chatting.

Cant wait to see the results and to shoot again!

My first shoot with Alan was fantastic! To say the least. From the moment i arrived at Alans home studio he welcomed me and my partner into his home and offered us a beverage which was needed after the long drive we had, i think that was very lovely of Alan.

We had a chat to begin with to get to know one another to break the ice and some extras to how our shoot would plan out. I knew straight away that it was going to be an easy going, laid back shoot, i was quite excited to get started.

As we went on to shoot there wasent a dull moment. The shoot was filled with constant chit chat and laughter. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our shoot together and find Alan to be an absolute pleasure to work with! He is a very talented man.

I would highly recommend working with Alan and would love to work with him again ;)

..Pre comms for the shoot were great i knew exactly what to bring along and had a vision board sent over for more clarity to what we would be doing on the day.

Again it was a pleasure to work with you Alan. Cant wait for the edits! 🙂

An absolutely brilliant shoot today with Alan at his home studio. We shot with a headress he had and I sourced a big ballgown to go with it. We then moved onto some hugely creative ideas of his own. I had great fun, and I'm confident we produced some amazing work. Alan was a brilliant host, relaxed yet professional, and I hope to work with him again soon. Thanks Alan! Recommended!

Where to even start! As you can see by Alans portfolio, his talent and creativity knows no bounds. I was immediately drawn into his imaginative style, and breadth of unique shots. I was therefore extremely flattered when he reached out to book a shoot.

His pre-communication was excellent, he provided mood boards and inspirational images that we referenced throughout the process. I spammed him with outfit and accessory options and he chose appropriately so I knew exactly what I was bringing to the table, making my prep as simple as possible.

On the day of the shoot we had time factored in just to chat and get to know each other which I feel is invaluable as you then get on the same creative wavelength. At the location (the wonderful Basford Hurst Cottage) we shot through multiple looks and outfits with ease and as you can see by the results covered many themes.

Alan is lots of fun to work with, we could've chatted forever! There were lots of laughs and so much freedom to get creative. It was a true collaboration and I cannot wait to shoot together again.

Highly, highly recommended.

Alan contacted us to book a shoot here with VictoriaLucie and needless to say we are so pleased he came to Basford!!

All pre comms with Alan were great, everything was so easy to organise and he arrived on time with everything he needed for the shoot. After a quick look around he starting shooting with Victoria and I have honestly never seen so much creativity in one shoot!!! Alan had so many unique ideas and really brought them to life here at Basford!!

We would highly recommend working with Alan, he is polite, friendly and I felt like we could've chatted for hours! In fact I think we did haha! - Welcome back anytime and we really look forward to seeing the finished edits!! Thanks Alan!!

Alan was a photographer for a Halloween group shoot I modelled in, and we chatted briefly afterwards. A delight to work with, and professional throughout. Looking forward to seeing the images from the shoot!

I had a great shoot with Alan yesterday at his home studio in York. Alan had so many creative ideas, we didn't have chance to get through them all in the given time.

Alan is so creative, well organised and the shoot was well planned and really fun too.

Alan is highly recommended and I hope to shoot with him again soon.

I had a fantastic shoot with Alan at his home studio in York. He was beyond professional and hospitable, which made the atmosphere feel very relaxed.

Communication was great, we discussed about inspirations and ideas together, which we ended up with some fabulous images! I am very excited to post them on social media!!

Alan is someone I would highly recommend and surely I would love to do a second shoot with him. Thank you so much, Alan!

I had a wonderful first shoot with Alan at his home studio. We did an interesting type of shoot with a makeup artist who transformed me into a vampire.

I really enjoyed working with him. His hospitality was great. He also prepared his studio to the theme of the shoot.

Thank you so much for a fantastic time, and hopefully, we will be able to shoot together again at some point in the future.

ALAN IS HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Had a shoot with Alan recently. Communication was excellent before hand, all ideas were spoken about thoroughly and outfits were discussed.

Relaxed throughout the shoot, with ideas and he knew what sort of photos he wanted to achieve.

The photos looked amazing from the back of the camera, so I’m hopeful that he will produce some good work!

Look forward to working with you again!

His images are like golddust!!

Myself and Al did yet another fantastic shoot at his own home built studio and I couldn’t be anymore thankful of the results that came about :) the attention to detail and the time and effort he puts into any image is simply remarkable and it always excites me to see what concepts he creates from every picture. I absolutely love working with my friend here and we have already arrange another shoot next year which is no doubt be just as good as the last :) Always a pleasure and I cannot recommend enough!

Thank you Al :)

Lovely shoot with Alan this past weekend. I love his style and we connected a while back but took a while until we managed a shoot, but so glad we collaborated! Alan has a great home studio set up and though we had limited time we got some great shots. He provided great direction and ensured I was comfortable. I'm looking forward to another shoot some day soon!

Had a fab first shoot with Alan, at his home studio. On a creative makeup beauty shoot! And what a fabulous shoot it was!!

Such an easy going photographer, very enjoyable to work with and he remained professional and respectful throughout.

He was full of fabulous creative ideas but also happy for me to pose freely and throw in my own ideas, working together to achieve the perfect shot! The time flew!! Which to me is always a good sign!

Highly recommended to any level of model! The images are fab! And I absolutely cannot wait to work with him again.

Thanks again for an awesome shoot! 😁
