Andy and I had been wanting to work together for ages, so earlier this year when he suggested we worked on a Game of Thrones themed shoot I was really looking forward to it.

It's fair to say even though I've barely finished importing the images I'm delighted with the results. We had a great afternoon shooting some epic fantasy in a ruined castle in Wales, nothing was too much trouble and Andy was on-point for the whole shoot. His pre-shoot prep was awesome, costume and props spot on for the theme. He worked hard in some challenging conditions and looked great. Can't ask for more than that!

Quite the opposite of the scary goth dude you'd imagine from his photos, Andy is a really nice guy, easy to get on with and a lot of fun to work with. Really looking forward to future collaborations!

Highly recommended.

Another awesome photoshoot with andy. He came prepared with completely new outfits for the concept, and was polite and respectful throughout. He is very under appreciated as a male model and i thoroughly urge others to book him..you wouldn't be dissapointed

I worked alongside Andy as a model and MUA on a shoot on sunday after working with him as an MUA the week before. He's polite, friendly, professional and generally a really lovely guy. He was well prepared with a great outfit. He took direction well when working by himself and alongside me and the other model.

Definitely recommended.

I worked as an MUA on a shoot with Andy yesterday, he's a really lovely guy, very professional, he's got a great look, he sits still well! Which is always a plus for an MUA. I really enjoyed working with him definitely recommended.

Second shoot this week with Andy!

Andy always comes up with interesting and unique concepts and is very easy to work with. More than happy to push conceptual boundaries and go that extra mile to get the right shot!

Recommended!

I worked with Andy yesterday at the Kinked and Twisted studio day, and it was an absolute pleasure. He is an excellent model, not to mention that he is a genuinely lovely, friendly person. He worked really hard, on what was a long day, always putting in huge amounts of energy to make sure the shots came out right...and all with a broken hand.

I would definitely work with Andy again, and would recommend him to anyone.

Worked with  Andy on our studio day. he was very easy to work with and gave his all to every set. Very hard working and a pleasure to chat with too, welcome back anytime...

I've had the pleasure to work with Andy on a few occasions now, and it was an amazing experience each time. His calm, professional demeanor had me relaxed in no time at all, and there were plenty of laughs mixed in. Which was brilliant, considering once was my first time modelling, and another was my first time behind the camera! I'd definitely recommend a shoot with him and I'm very much looking forward to working with him again in the near future.

I had the chance to work with Andy over the weekend, but only a brief shoot with us both together .He is a really cool bloke, willing to try every thing suggested to make a great unique fetish image. He has a great look, and is very photogenic. He wasn't fazed at all by four dominant women surrounding him with whips, chains, crops and fire . A pleasure to work with, and hopefully I will be able to work with him again soon, I highly recommend him to all you togs out there.

Worked with Andy twice this month (sorry for delay in reference) the most recent one at kinked-n-twisted event. I am leaving this reference on behalf of the client Ellie who booked me to photograph Andy -

Andy was open to all ideas I had, even though they were somewhat crazy/fetishy and required acting (with a huge plaster cast on his arm) despite having a broken hand, Andy worked his butt off on everyones concepts , was respectful to myself, the client, the models and the hosts at all times.

I will always recommend Andy to all photographers!

As a the 'new photographer on the block' it was nice to work with Andy, a very likeable and understanding young man!

Andy was the first male model I have worked with, he was very good at his trade and had to put up with a lot from the other models! He was excellent and volunteered to help in any possible role that was required. I would definitely recommend him for other shoots!

Worked alongside Andy yesterday at the Kinked and Twisted studio day and he could not have been more lovely. Biddable, sweet, polite and helpful all the long day despite having an injury to work around. And his experience at modelling really shows, I was so impressed by the range of expressions and poses he has in his arsenal. One of my favourite people I've met via PurplePort without a doubt, would LOVE to work with him again any time at all.

I shot a few pictures with Andy at the Kinked and Twisted studio day on Saturday. In all the images, he adds a powerful presence and he worked hard to take my rather vague directions and add a sense of gravity and drama. He was always keen to work one hundred percent to give me the image that I wanted and I would be happy both to work with him again and would definitely recommend him to any other photographer.

Huge thanks to Andy for becoming my first male model. Pre-shoot communication was excellent and we quickly put together a plan for a varied programme. We began with some urban location work including some shots on a busy street before heading to the top of a multi-storey car park. After a break for lunch we headed off to a studio for some art nude work. Andy handled all of these very different set-ups with good humour and no hint of complaint.

Andy is a very talented model and perfectly capable of free-posing with great variety. However, if you want something specific, all you need to do is ask and Andy will take up the requested pose.

If you are looking for a Male model, I would highly recommend Andy. I hope we can work together again soon. Thanks once again.

If you have chance to work with Andy grab it! Coming to this shoot as a real beginner I was worried I wouldn't be able to keep up with him, but it's like having a great dance partner. He did everything to put me at my ease and went out of his way to find poses that would compliment mine. He's so easy to talk to off set and so professional when the camera is out. The chemistry was palpable and we are already planning our next shoot - get this guy on your portfolio!

Andy never fails to amaze me. His work is coming on in leaps and bounds and always improving. Andy is up for anything, be it crazy or simple and his shape/tones are amazing.

Highly recommended

Second shoot with Andy at a beautiful studio in South Wales was sublime though cut far to short due to two models who will remain unnamed driving to the wrong city! ;) Two shoots in a week with this guy is a dream come true.

Despite that madness when myself and Miss Siri Sim arrived at the right destination Andy was stood bedecked in his most wonderful finery and looking quietly amused at the chaos around him. Cool as a cucumber he observed the female hail storm erupt around him and simply allowed us the space to get on with it. He blows me away with his understanding and patience.

Our super speedy shoot ran amazingly smoothly and even with such limited time we got some outstanding images I hope, as once again Andy slips straight into character and gets the job done as only a professional can. My only regret is that we ran out of time when there was so much more we could have achieved... But me and the delectable Miss Siri are plotting to put this right!

If you want a strong male model who can deliver over and over again book Andy he is just wonderful!

Highly recommended and then some :)

Thank you again sweetheart!

SiriSim

Met Andy for the first time yesterday.

He's a very calm and respectful chap, very professional.

It wasn't a very long shoot this time, which is unfortunate, as Cloud and I after the fact had so many ideas flying around that we simply have to do it again. It was a great concept that we didn't get to explore enough and I think there is still a lot more fun left in the idea.

Would definitely work alongside this sweet guy again.

Had an enjoyable shoot with Andy yesterday, he is a great model who really know whats needed and delivers, his costume and styling was excellent, I wouldn't hesitate to work with him again, and a nice bloke also, highly recommended

On the Midsummer Solstice I had the pleasure of working once again with the amazing and inspiring Andy Filth, this time on a shoot that had been inspired by his desire to 'explore his darker side' and the resultant partnership with the equally inspiring Cloudy.

OK, so I've already used variants of the word 'inspiring' three times in this review. That is because I can find no other way to explain or convey what it is like to work with models like Andy. He is a really nice guy, a super friend, totally courteous, and a true gentleman.

On a fairly explicit B/G erotic shoot (as we were) he is totally respectful of his female partner on the shoot. He doesn't make lewd jokes, he doesn't camp it up, he doesn't piss around, he doesn't do anything out of line. He just quietly gets on with the job of interpreting the concept of the shoot and ensuring that he is playing his part.

I love working with Andy. He's just a genuine pleasure to work with, he gets on and does the job, he brings real inspiration to his poses, he is imaginative, he is very clever in the way that he brings his darker side into the shoot, he is totally constructive in suggesting ways that the shot can be improved. Above all, he just knows what he is doing, and does it in a way that makes images just go ZING

And if I haven't said it before (I think I may have done, but it is worth saying again) he is just a really, really, nice guy to work with, and he understands what the tog is trying to create with the shot. For me, that is worth a million dollars!

I'm already lining up my next shoot with Andy, and hey – you should be too, because he is brilliant to work with.
