Andy attended a group shoot here held by Lady Molly. It was the first time we had worked together. He was charming and professional, full of ideas and respected the venue. Thank you Andy you are always welcome!

I met Andy at a group shoot event at a manor house.

Pre Shoot Communications were great, he replied to my initial message, and it was clear that he has taken the time to read my port notes as he picked up on some of the theme mentioned on there which helped finding a common interest and theme for this shoot, and helped me prepare outfits and accessories in advance.

On the day, he was a real gentleman and treated everyone with respect, and he had great ideas to use for the images we wanted to create. Would absolutely work with Andy again, it has been a delight, and I am looking forward to seeing the edits. :)

Worked with Andy at a mature models event held at a beautiful country manor house near Dorchester Dorset.

Found him the absolute professional and very easy to work with. Had a super shoot with him and absolutely loved the first edit through.

Thoroughly recommend this gentleman :)

Lady Molly

This was my third outing with Andy and I knew he would be up for my slightly unusual idea, his communication was superb and he was the perfect gent as always. We worked in the garden , he’s very methodical and prefers to get the right shot in the first shot. I’d definitely work with Andy again.... and again.

I was at a group shoot yesterday at South House Retreat. Andy was the first person to take pics of me. He was just great, fun but professional. a good bit of light hearted banter left us both feeling confident and relaxed. He is so clued up and gave some really good suggestions as well as listened to mine. I would highly recommend him to anyone.I really hope our paths cross again!

I met and worked with Andy for the first time and even though we were both at the end of a long day of shooting, we worked well together and he was still full of ideas and open to any I had. I would thoroughly recommend Andy.

What a beautiful gentleman

I had the opportunity to work with Andy as part of a group shoot at Art Asylum.

the comes were good, pre-shoot and we had a lovely conversation all the way through the shoot.

An absolute Gent who isn't afraid to talk through his thought processes whilst working through the shoot.

Lovely to work with him and certainly recommended

Lady Molly

It's is the second time I have worked with andy at the art asylum and yet again found him easy to work with and very relaxed. We made contact before tne shoot and quickly agreed on our theme and had a fun hour with some impromptu sillyness at the end. Great working with andy again...highly recommended.

Had the pleasure of meeting and shooting with Andy at the Art Asylum Group shoot last Sunday. It was my first time attending one of these events and Andy was the first photographer I worked with on the day. He instantly put me at ease and we were chatting away as though we'd known each other for ages. Andy came up with some great ideas for shots and gave excellent direction. He also let me contribute my own ideas and I'm really pleased with the images we achieved. Highly reommended, and I'd welcome the opportunity to work with Andy again.

Yet another great shoot with Andy, this time at very short notice after we'd had an unexpected change of line up in models at a group shoot. This didn't faze Andy at all and he was happy to work with any changes without complaint. Always a pleasure working with Andy, such a gentleman and a joy to work with. Many thanks Andy for a great shoot

Lady Molly

Met Andy at a recent art asylum group shoot.....we discussed ideas well in advance and worked with the area we where allocated

I found andy to be a really friendly and easy going chap....we had a great hour and really happy with returned results. I would highly recommend Andy and would work with him again if given the opportunity.

Had the real pleasure to meet and work with Andy on a group shoot. communication with Andy was excellent prior to our limited time together.

I found Andy to be interesting, highly creative (using his initiative to the absolute max whenever possible), superb in his direction and exceptionally professional.

Andy was well mannered throughout and frequently showed me almost every shot so we could achieve the best possible results.

I would recommend working alongside Andy without a doubt and look forward to hopefully working with him again in the future.

Andy was one of the photographers on a group shoot at Art Asylum. He was brilliant at communicating prior to the shoot and let me know that he enjoys shooting costume and extravagant outfits. This helped me to work out a theme for our hour together quite easily.

On the day, we were last to shoot by which time it was quite cold and dark but Andy knew exactly how to use these conditions to his advantage and came up with some really lovely images with great shadows. He spoke with me in a lovely calm, relaxed manner throughout about what he was doing and frequently showed me the images in the camera. After the shoot he was quick to send me the finished images and was very helpful when I asked about having them in another format suitable for this site.

I felt at ease with Andy and would love to create images with him again. A real pleasure to work with.

Andy attended another of the group shoots I organise at Art Asylum photo studios. He's always a joy to work with and I'm very pleased he came back. We worked in a new area of the studio...a new urban decay set, Andy immediately came up with an idea and I was able to plan for our hour together accordingly. Working with Andy is a great opportunity to do a bit of acting and get in to character...you can tell Andy likes more of a story to his images than most and it's great if you are passionate about being creative to work with someone who will give you free reign and allow you to be that character. Awesome images from our session, thanks for another great shoot Andy

Andy was my first shoot on a recent Art Asylum group shoot, we'd never met before but he is very charming and amiable. Despite having travelled the furthest to get to the shoot, he arrived at the studio with plenty of time to spare. We had discussed some ideas before the day so both of us were well planned to avoid delays in our hour long slot. My time with Andy was most enjoyable and it went far too quickly.

Thank you for a wonderful shoot Andy :)
