Yet again another fantastic shoot with Luke! This time was a little different and completely out of my comfort zone by entering into the world of film! Luke was incredibly supportive and gave great direction, not only is he incredibly professional but he is also friendly, chatty and makes you feel completely at ease in his presence. I look forward to working with Luke again very soon and would highly recommend him 😊

Luke was lovely to work with, he made me feel completely at ease from the very beginning.

Luke has a great collection of costumes and props and has a great eye for knowing what will work.

I can't recommend Luke enough, friendly, chatty nd laidback whilst remaining professional 😊

Luke came back to Basford Hurst Cottage to shoot with two models with lots of themes of cosplay! It was a pleasure to welcome Luke back to Basford, all pre comms were great and everything was easy to organise.

Luke came up the night before to make the most of our on site accommodation. He was the perfect house guest and we spent the evening chatting over pizza!

On shoot day itself Luke could not have been more respectful of both models and our location. He worked through many different sets and brought with him loads of incredible props and outfits! The back of the camera looked amazing and we have already seen the first edits appearing which are incredible!!!

We would of course highly reccomend Luke and we look forward to welcoming him back to Basford again soon!! Thank you Luke!!

Luke and I met in South Wales - on one of the hottest days of the year - to shoot some location cosplay. Luke was as organised as ever, and again my safety and comfort was paramount throughout the shoot. I LOVED getting to dress as OG Lara Croft for half of the shoot, and Green Ivy for the remainder. Exploring the Welsh countryside across multiple locations for this shoot was an added bonus too, especially ending in a cooling little stream (that I couldn't wait to get in to grab some shots!).

Always love our time together and value getting to work with lovely people like Luke.

Luke asked me if I would like to get involved with a cosplay shoot with him and Lila at Basford Hurst Cottage.

I had never done anything like this before but I was keen to give it a go!!

Luke is a great!! He is so easy to talk to and provides very clear direction on what he would like to achieve. He is also very laid back which helped with my confidence and learning.

The footage looked great on the back of the camera and I can't wait to see the end result!! Thanks for everything Luke!! I look forward to seeing you again!!

Luke came to Basford today to shoot with Lila and Miss C on a cosplay themed shoot.

Pre comms with Luke where great - He provided all the required information and was easy to organise everything with. He turned up on time and was fully prepared for a day of shooting!!

Luke was completely respectful of our location, even bringing his own matting to place over the wooden floors!! He made sure to ask if he needed anything and was great fun to have around!!

Luke is welcome back to Basford anytime and I would highly recommend him!! Thank you Luke!!

Luke introduced me to the beautiful Basford Cottage studio for our (5th?!) video shoot to continue shooting a hero concept, which we've now shot in multiple locations.

Shoot information is always super detailed, including scripts sent in advance for perusal. Luke is very conscious of model safety and welfare, which was crucial during some stunt fight scenes we were shooting. He's such a lovely person and always ensures a good working pace with plenty of breaks as needed.

I love the work we create together and the cosplay opportunities I get through working with Luke. It's always a memorable day!

Fourth time shooting together now and it just gets better and better each time as we come to know each other rather well!

Luke is friendly, polite (a gent), easygoing, organised, creative, kind.. many things! He's also very well-equipped and captures stunningly shot video when we work together.

This time we worked out of the same studio in Stockport as last time but used learnings from last time to perfect what we started.

It was a super fun and relaxed day as always.

Thanks again :)

Third time working together now and Luke is always as fun and respectful as the first time we met! It’s always nice to shoot something a little different, but this time we did video work for Luke’s new self-written script. His planning was as impeccable as usual but honestly the best part about working with him is how kind he is, checking you’re comfortable constantly throughout the shoot and being constructive with any feedback/direction delivery.

Look forward to next time. Thanks for coming up to me!

Luke was great to work with. We did a studio cosplay shoot together. He is a lovely guy and really easy to get along with and made me feel very comfortable. I look forward to working with him again in the future.

Met Luke for our first shoot at the buckle factory studios, loved the effort he put in with the cosplay costumes. He had such a range of quality outfits to try. Respectful and helpful when it came to outfit changes, instructed the shoot well, built a really good rapporte with each other. Very enjoyable shoot.

Had a really great Cosplay shoot during my three day Tour in Bath with AM Photography at Metropolitan Fox’s fabulous apartment in Bath.

Prior to shooting communication was great and we discussed so many cool looks and ideas. I was so excited as I have always wanted to do more Cosplay. Luke showed me various looks that he’s done before with images and examples plus a few images of the costumes that he could provide.

On the day of the shoot Luke arrived prompt with lots of energy and ready to shoot. I was so impressed at all of Luke photography’s fabulous outfits and props that he brought along. We did a Poison Ivy look and he even brought along an Ivy fence with artificial leaves that looked really realistic.

During the shoot Luke really taught me a lot about Cosplay and helped me get into the character of Poison Ivy with by explaining certain details & characteristics about her. The shoot flowed really well and as the shoot went on we progressed and created some really incredible images!!!!!

More than recommended. Just amazing would love to shoot with this photographer again. Such a gun shoot and learnt so much more about Cosplay.

What a lovely guy!

Luke and I did my first ever cosplay shoot at the incredible Gunpowder Factory location.

Luke was very understanding about the heat and was happy for me to keep putting my hair up in between shots (which meant throwing a clip at him each time!).

The costumes are so comfortable and easy to manoeuvre in, which meant climbing up ruins was a breeze (although Luke is super on it with health and safety!).

Great connection to have made and looking forward to seeing a few of the shots. Thanks so much for travelling to work with me!

Me and Luke arranged a fitness shoot after he messaged saying he would like to explore beyond his usual photography. Pre shoot communications were excellent, Luke gave depth detail of the style he'd like, location and duration. Had a lovely warm welcome on arrival, we got a long straight away after realising we had similar characteristics and interests! Like allowed me to pose freely but when having an idea would make suggestions. We would have been able to shoot more, if given, the weather wasn't so nice and it wasn't a Bank Holiday! Luke drove us to another part (which was still extremely busy) and I felt completely safe and comfortable around him. He's polite yet bubbly - kinda like me!

We're already discussing our next shoot which will be great 🙂🙂

First shoot with Luke and hopefully not the last.

Like replied to my short notice casting and we quickly sorted a location shoot out.

Luke was waiting at the location with an umbrella waiting for me as the weather was not on our side! Luke is a real gentleman and made sure I was comfortable and helped me with my bags and coat as we walked to our shooting spots, he gives great direction and is very creative with getting great angles (climbing rocks or laying on the ground) you can see the professionalism and drive he has to get the shot! Very friendly funny and chatty which made for a fun day, he even treated me to a coffee and waited for my lift to come get me. I felt very safe and happy with the entire shoot!

Thank you Luke

I give my highest recommendation to Luke.

Had a shoot with Luke near me. He is a gentlemen, very considerate and laid back so doesn’t expect too much. Great at direction, knew exactly what he wanted from each picture. It was an easy day, apart from getting the corset on, and walking on walls with heels on which he helped with and again he is just a gentleman and felt very comfortable and safe with him. The pics that I saw on viewfinder look great as well.

Charlene Joy

I had my first shoot with Luke today in a local forest near me to shoot some cosplay outfits!

Luke’s pre comms were excellent we spoke in depth before the shoot so it was all planned and ready to go come the day of the shoot.

Luke was respectful kind and polite during the shoot. We bounced ideas off each other and just worked together really well!

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Luke and can’t wait to shoot with him again soon!

Thank you

Ohhhh what a wicked day I had shooting with Luke!

Luke messaged me last minute as unfortunately he’s had a cancellation for the following day, and I’m glad he did!

We shot at beltcraft studio the following morning, we shot tons of cool cosplay outfits! It was such an easy flowing day. Great conversation, great costumes, great company. The whole morning was brilliant.

Highly recommended!

Till next time, Jodie x
