Having waited a fair few years to work with this elusive butterfly, it seems my patience was finally rewarded.

Upon meeting Amalia, the first thing that struck me about her was just how lovely she is as a person. No sooner had she walked through my front door than she showed nothing but politeness.

I also found her both thoroughly engaging and truly enlightening in conversation.

She arrived with a suitcase which was crammed with some of the most amazing items of clothing and accessories I have seen. I had so much fun working with Amalia, and one of the things I liked about her was that she presented so many magical ideas of her own whilst she also encouraged mine.

Being that we only had five hours booked, I do hope that Amalia and I will find another opportunity to work again in the not too distant future.

Thank you Amalia. You were definitely worth waiting for.

I was fortunate enough to work with Amalia last month, and it was possibly one of the single best decisions I've made on this site. From her professional approachability to her stellar posing, she is a delight to work with.

My only regret is not having worked with her sooner, and for longer.

This was our first shoot with Amalia... thankfully back in the UK for 1 week.

Such a great shoot, she's easy going, fun to be around - amazing model.

Arrived with a massive suitcase overflowing with so many outfits! - good communication, arrived spot on time. Honestly can't recommend highly enough.

Thx again, Nick & Lynn

Amalia was back in this country for a brief week and she kindly let me know so that we could have a shoot. She never disappoints - and this being our 9th shoot together we hit the deck running. A new location, new outfits, but the same lovely model. Amalia is definitely on my list for when she returns permanently in the summer.

I was invited along to a shoot (my first one with models) along with gjp and hatcher at an awesome railway station. Despite battling storm hannah and a power cut, we got some awesome shots.

Amalia was one of the models there on the day and she was fantastic. Very friendly, followed direction well and put her own ideas forward which for me, as a new photographer put my mind at ease. Her patience and guidance was brilliant.

I'm looking forward to my next chance to work with Amalia and hope its soon!

This is my 8th shoot with Amalia, and she is so much on my list of most favourite models! I was very privileged that she managed to fit in a three hour shoot in a very busy week back in England before returning to Paris. We used a medieval inn where we have shot period styles before, but this time used her own outfits. Although the room was a little difficult to circumnavigate we made good use of natural light coming in from two windows. As always Amalia came up with some good and even quirky ideas, and I love the way shoots with her are very collaborative. Once more a lovely experience with great results, and I can't wait for next time - perhaps even in Paris!

Another amazing shoot with Amalia, the first in my studio. Every time we work together she surprises me! Having bought a fantastic wardrobe of fashion and lingerie items, Amalia showed a delightfully playful and quirky side to her posing that we hadn't explored before. Our time together flew by as she nailed (and exceeded!) each idea in the shoot plan, and my only regret is that we didn't have the whole day to fool around :-). A beauty who fizzes with creative energy, Amalia is a pleasure to work with, and to be with. Can't wait till the next time.

Highly recommended - thank you Amalia!

I’ve been following Amalia for some time with incredible admiration and appreciation of her outstanding output. I finally managed to schedule a shoot during her short visit back in the UK. She suggested that we might find a convenient place halfway between where we each live, and without too much searching I landed on the most amazing Airbnb property, on paper we both agreed that it looked quite incredible. However having met outside the gate to this lodge, On entering we were both completely blown away by the extraordinary beauty Of this listed property which had the most beautiful all glass conservatory adjoining it.

However the beauty of the lodge lodge Aside, I was equally thrilled to be finally shooting with this so very beautiful lady. Amalia had prepared a mood board which was both exciting and exhaustive and over the ensuing six hours we managed to execute her ideas using the amazing facilities at our disposal.

Throughout the shoot and over a picnic lunch in the sunbathed conservatory, we chatted as if we’ve known each other for a considerable time. Amalia is a fascinating person, very intelligent but also a hugely talented and professional model.

Having bitten the bullet, I now can’t wait to meet up with her again and continue our creative journey together.

My third shoot with Amalia. This time in and around Salisbury, making use of her local knowledge.

Amalia is very accomplished and slips easily from one set to the next or instantly "settles" into a new location and, as a result, one gets an awful lot done very quickly. In 4 hours, we shot 5 completely different locations with some transit time between them (and still had time for a coffee!)

Very accomplished at everything she does, with a fabulous personality, great sense of fun and humour and a truly professional attitude, Amalia is a model I simply cannot recommend highly enough and one I can't wait to work with again.

I had a truly amazing shoot with the beautiful, intelligent, and engaging Amalia last week.

Amalia is one of the finest model I've been working with and it was such a joy shooting with this her. She was very relaxed during the shoot and could provide some amazing poses without the need to be directed much.

I definitely look forward to work with her again!

Amalia and I were the two female models for a leather catalogue shoot. Not only is she a stunning girl, both in features and figure, but she's really easy to work with. Super funny, smiley, and chatty - a great model to have on set. Amalia learned my style super quickly and posed alongside me without effort. Thanks to her, the pictures turned out really great.

I loved duoing with her and would definitely do so again!

Had my first shoot with Amalia on Saturday for a leather jacket catalog. She was amazing, her pre shoot comms was really good, she arrived on time and was ready to shoot. Makeup was really good, she didn't need any direction. We had 2 other models on site and she worked really well with them. Amalia is a very beautiful young woman and very down to earth. I would definitely recommend her to everyone as she is very good.

Amalia was totally amazing!

Very impressed with the photos we created, she understood what my vision was and picked up on my shooting style quickly.

From start to finish, I enjoyed every minute of our shoot.

100% recommended from me.

Superb model. Brilliant comms, pre-shoot, developing and refining themes and establishing a plan. Amalia arrived ultra-prepared, with plenty of props and outfits, and lots of excellent ideas. A pleasure to work with; expressive, confident, incredibly photogenic, thoughtful and professional. Easy to get along with too - a smoothly flowing, fun, and highly productive shoot. Look forward to shooting again.

Very highly recommended, obviously. :)

Amalia is a lovely model. We had plenty of communication beforehand, which is a great help. She was very professional, had lots of expression, lots of poses, and the camera loves her. It was a very enjoyable first shoot together, with some fantastic results. I look forward to working with Amalia again.

Amalia came over to my place in Havant to work and advise on a new project of mine.

We managed around 3 hours lots of talking but still a very productive session.

I learnt a lot from Amalia.

A lovely hard working professional model with a great attitude.

Just fabulous.

Shooting Amalia is a dream. I arrived with a cameras and lens, she brought obvious but astonishing beauty, amazing eyes, personality, professionalism, enthusiasm and radiance. She is frighteningly intelligent and multi-talented (ask her about the garden fence!) yet down-to-earth and great company for those of us who are mere mortals because she doesn't take herself too seriously and the next laugh, or quirky, funny expression, is only ever moments away.

A seriously enjoyable shoot, with an outstanding model, and I cannot wait for our next. Amalia is most definitely recommended by me!

Totally amazing, totally awesome, superb model, Faultless, great experience from start to finish. I've been keen to work with Amalia for ages and eventually we got it sorted. I was not disappointed. Amalia has an intellect and confidence unequalled and I think we spent as much time chatting as we did shooting (my fault). A totally relaxed and fun shoot, I will def. be working with Amalia again (hopefully before her next overseas adventure). Certainly one of the very best models I have worked with. I can not recommend her highly enough.

Wow! Had the most incredible shoot with Jess today, one of the most beautiful models in the universe and as a person beautiful inside and out. We got through so many themes and costume changes in a short time due to effortless flowing poses from Jess.

Many of the fantastic images were due to her creative input, a stunning model and actress who gives 110% to each shoot. I’ve worked with Jess many times , always a pleasure ,fun to be with and can’t wait for the next adventure.

I would totally recommend Amalia / Jess to anyone in the creative world,

Thx

I was glad to be able to arrange another shoot with Amalia when I discovered she was back in England for a couple of months. My advice, book this lovely lady while she is around! This time we did some general fashion, lingerie and implied, and she had plenty of ideas for something special. She even sat half out of a window to my slight consternation - no defenestrations, please! But we got the shot. Maybe we will have another encounter after Christmas before she goes globe trotting again, but if not I will certainly be on the look out for her in the spring.
