I had a shoot with Andrew during my studio day at The Black Lodge. He was professional and pleasant during the shoot, and I felt comfortable and encouraged to try various poses and ideas. The hour flew by very fast, but I am sure we managed to get some good shots.

I enjoyed the shoot and can recommend working with Andrew.

Andrew booked one of my slots for an Enchanted Garden Styled shoot at the The Black Lodge in Falkirk. Throughout the whole shoot Andrew was professional, friendly and easy going!

Andrew had loads of ideas which I think created some really epic shots, I really enjoyed working with Andrew and looking forward to next week's group shoot!

I would highly recommend him to any model, thank you again

After two years of planning, Andrew showed up to my farmhouse in a beautiful striped shirt for our first shoot. We were stuck talking for 45 minutes before the photography began. This is a good thing, it is an omen that it will be a lasting shooting relationship but it is also a good thing for people who have limited social connections outside of this industry.

There are some photographers I get on well with socially but we have different interests in terms of what to create. Andrew and I have a very similar interest in what we want to create.

He is a talented artist and a very nice person. I enjoyed every minute of our shoot, and really wish to build on our creative vision together. I am honored and delighted to be part of his works.

I shot with Andrew during my Scottish tour in July 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I hired a lovely spacious Airbnb, being 1 bedroom but quite a big living room, bedroom, kitchen etc.

Andrew is professional, kind, outgoing and lovely!

We shot a range of styles and ideas and the shoot felt very productive yet relaxed.

I feel me and Andrew got on very well too which I think always comes hand-hand with a great shoot.

Andrew has already sent me some of the results and I’m very happy. I look forward to going through the album again, so I can decide which ones I want to post! :)

I would definitely like to shoot with him again.

Highly recommended 🌟

Andrew has just spent two days shooting with us here at Basford Hurst Cottage and it was a pleasure to welcome him back here after his last visit last year. The first day Andrew spent shooting with the lovely Petra, and the second day he shot with studio owner Miss C.

All pre comms with Andrew were great - He made organising the two days incredibly easy.

Andrew worked tirelessly over the two days with both models to create many stunning images. He has so many wonderful ideas and between him and the model really brought them to life!! - He was always respectful of our location and was very polite, easy to talk to and happy to ask if he ever needed anything.

We would happily reccomend Andrew and really look forward to seeing him again soon!! Thank you for coming back to our location!!

Andrew contacted me to ask if I would be interested to shoot with him on his second day of shooting at Basford Hurst Cottage - Having met Andrew previously and seen the quality of his images I obviously jumped at the opportunity!!

All pre comms with Andrew were great - He sent me some really fun and creative ideas for things he wanted to shoot!! On the day of the shoot he arrived on time with everything he needed and after a cuppa and a chat we began shooting.

Following Andrew's shoot plan was lot of fun!! At one point I ended up wearing a moustache inspired by Freddie Mercurys epic 'I want to break free' - and we moved on to a more 'erotic rendition' of a James bond themed set... Finally finishing off with some lovely candid images down by our woodland bridge. Time absolutely flew by, we spent plenty of time chatting and bouncing ideas around and really came away with some fantastic images!!

Andrew allowed me to pose freely but also had some of his own suggestions. He is clearly very knowledgeable about light and composition as spent a lot of time getting the image right, something I really appreciate!!

All in all a fantastic shoot and I would of course highly reccomend Andrew!! Thank you so much and I look forward to seeing you again soon!!

I had a great shoot with Andrew whilst on my Glasgow tour! Shooting on location around the city itself- lots of cool locations and opportunities for shots! Despite the cold weather, we powered on through and captured some really awesome shots. The images are so great!! Andrew was very friendly and professional throughout. As well as being very relaxed and easy going. Thank you so much!

I worked with the lovely Andrew again recently at my little studio "Heavenly Bodies Studio" and had such a wonderful, creative shoot! I cannot believe it had been FIVE years since our last shoot, time flys!!

Andrew had been very lucky to win a days shoot with myself at the studio and had kindly driven from Falkirk and booked a hotel nearby (crazy man! :P )

Shooting with Andrew again was like shooting with an old friend! He was fantastic company, professional, respectful and a thoroughly lovely person! I greatly enjoyed the day and went away smiling!

We captured SO many beautiful images and some absolutely hilarious outtakes! He gave great direction and I felt I could be my mad eccentric self, which is always lovely!

Thankyou so much Andrew for a wonderful day and I really do hope to work together when I am next on tour in Scotland! Highly recommended to all models and creatives, Helen x

I am very happy with our photo session!

Andrew is a professional photographer with a lot of ideas and creativity, he works great with natural light.

Also, a very pleasant and easy-to-communicate person.

With pleasure I recommend it for models and just those who need beautiful and high-quality photos.

Thank you so much !

Andrew came to Basford Hurst Cottage to shoot with Petra for the day. Pre comms with Andrew were great!! Everything was organised swiftly and Andrew was so easy to communicate with throughout.

Andrew arrived on time at Basford with everything he needed. He is polite, easy to talk to and very professional. Andrew clearly has a great eye for photography (you only have to look at his images to see that!!) and really enjoys what he does!!

Andrew looked after our location from start to finish and made sure to ask if he needed anything during the shoot.

Andrew comes highly recommended from me and I certainly hope to see him again one day!! Thanks so much Andrew!! :D

My first time shooting with Andrew but hopefully not the last!

Andrew had great communication on the lead up to our shoot and I felt instantly at ease in Andrew's company the second he arrived at my Edinburgh apartment! We had a cup of tea and I showed him the selection of wardrobe I had with me where we shortlisted a handful of outfits. We worked our way around the apartment shooting the different outfits we had picked, which were so varied so made the shoot super fun being able to swap between different styles and characters.

Andrew is very laid back and easy to work with, and also very friendly/chatty. I absolutely loved our shoot and really hope to work with him again soon :D

Highly recommended!!

Try as it might but Covid couldn't keep Andrew away - so after an initial booking some two years earlier, he finally made the epic journey from Scotland to come and shoot here at Two Wei!

Andrew is friendly, polite and professional and worked very well with his model. They had a relaxed shoot but covered plenty of ground - both inside and out.

We're happy to unreservedly recommend Andrew to any other studios or models he wishes to work with and hope to see him again here at Two Wei sometime soon.

As always highly recommended.

I love working with Andrew, this shoot was no exception. We created some cracking shots thought a little out the box but so fun to create.

We always have a good blether, communication before the shoot was amazing and as always the time just flew in. I'm so excited to see the results from this shoot.

Can't wait for the next one!

Andrew is always a joy to work with, the shoot flew in as we chatted and generally had a good giggle. I've not shot much this year but I am very glad one of them was with Andrew.

Recommended as always.

Sorry this is a little late, let's blame this weird year.

Much love,

I had a lovely, chilled out shoot with Andrew as part of Evie Siddal and my pre-Raphaelite dream duo weekend. He took some absolutely beautiful photographs of the two of us and was happy to listen to some of our more bonkers ideas, haha! We shot so many gorgeous sets in the time we had and I would certainly work together again. :)

Evie Siddal

I had a great time working with Andrew as part of a duo shoot with Roswell Ivory last weekend.

Andrew was very polite and gave us a lot of artistic free rein over the shoot. We managed to fit so many sets of photos into a 4 hour slot! It was a lovely collaboration and I would happily work with him again. :)

Belle Eve

I’ve worked with Andrew many times now and each time is a total joy. Though this last shoot was a bit different for us. We went of a chilly walk around town. Battling the Scottish winds we managed to get some pretty cool shots. It’s probably one of my favourite shoots we have done.

I really enjoy working with Andrew his communication is always fab and he is generally a total sweetheart

Highly recommend, always.

Much love,

Eve

Had a short but amazing shoot with Andrew, we managed to capture a wide range of images and got through a fair few outfit changes.

Couldn’t recommend Andrew enough, such a lovely guy and will make you feel at ease throughout the shoot!

Thanks again!

I had the pleasure of working with Andrew on a duo day with Heather May Corvid during my recent trip to Scotland. We got through several sets in the 2 hours and I think we created some really beautiful images with a variety of outfits and lighting. I'd happily recommend Andrew to others and hope to work with him again.
