I had my first shoot with Anita back in November last year. As soon as the shoot ended we both said "must do this again soon"

Well, we managed to meet up again for a studio shoot last week and the wait was worth it! We only had 2 hours but managed to produce some amazing images in that time. Anita never fails to be anything other than outstanding, her hair, makeup and presentation is of the highest standard. Post processing is hardly needed, making it possible to produce multiple images in a short time span.

This girl is awesome to work with, friendly, easy going and produces stunning poses one after another. She is a joy to work with and comes highly recommended to all.

Looking forward to the next time already. :-)

Manse Studio

Anita has been to my studio several times over the years with other photographers so It was about time I shot with her myself. Great model, happy to shoot a wacky idea as well as more standard ones. Thanks and highly recommended.

My first shoot with Anita but not my last. Great model, very professional but easy to work with. Good preshoot communication.

A few months back, I received an email from Anita asking if I would be available to work with her towards the end of February as part of her tour of North Wales. At first, I wasn't sure what to make of the enquiry - this was contact from a model who, as she says on her portfolio, has worked with Vivienne Westwood, Selfridges, Stella McCartney, Vogue, Fashion TV and many many more big names and now she wants to work with lil' old me?! I almost responded along the lines of "Thanks, but I don't think I'm producing work just yet to match your portfolio's high standards..." however, I snapped out of it, took the enquiry as the compliment it was intended as and we agreed on a date and time. This as it turned out was Anita's first trip to North Wales so I wanted to try and find some stunning locations (with thanks to Kestrel for a few recommendations along the way), rather than opt for a studio shoot. Fortunately the weather was kind to us (probably the best day of the week, in fact) without needing me to resort to ritualistic sun dances in the back garden, scaring the neighbours' dogs and cats.

For me this was a nice change to shoot in my neck of the woods and not needing a 4-6am start in order to get to places for 9am. Having stayed at a local B&B the night before, I met up with Anita at sunrise as she was finishing breakfast and we set about planning the day's activities from thereon in. We covered a range of styles in our shoot from window portraits, B&W lingerie, location fashion and location nudes at a derelict, disused quarry and dabbled with bridal fashion at an Anglesey standing stones site.

Anita is a true professional, works fabulously with or without direction staying aware of her surroundings and lighting on location, possesses a slender figure (great for flexible figure/art nude work), stunning beauty (for every kind of work), hard-working, eager, 'down-to-earth' friendly and a joy to work with, offering helpful assistance, reassurance and little tweak suggestions along the way. North Wales in February is hardly St. Tropez, but Anita braved the cold, overcast and drying conditions without any outward complaint.

The time flew by (which is a good sign, so people say!) and even after a full day's work, we still have many ideas on the table ready for next time and I hope we have an opportunity to visualise those ideas together in the not too distant future. Thank you for an amazing shoot.

If only everything in life was this easy. Anita the 'model' of professionalism, brilliant, bags of personality, good looks and ideas. If you book Anita you get what you see in her portfolio. Yes a great shoot. Wish she lived closer to me. Would definitely like to work with her again.

Had a great shoot with Anita at Creativus Imago in Hitchin. The theme was steampunk and Anita was all made up and ready to go even before I turned up (admittedly a little late!). She was extremely patient while I re-acquainted myself with studio equipment and fiddled about with settings and was very collaborative throughout the process. Highly recommended and I look forward to working with her again soon.

I replied to Anita's casting for a street fashion shoot in Camden - Anita was taking care of the styling and locations.

Just fabulous - comms were great, the outfit choices were perfect - it was uncanny just how well the tones and style of the first outfit fitted every diverse location we went to and shot in.The second edgier outfit worked perfectly with the locations selected for it.

A great idea by Anita to offer a complete packaged shoot - the perfect introduction to location shooting.... and with Anita's great planning we accomplished so much in two short hours

Recommended? Of course, without hesitation......

Thanks for a great shoot Anita!

Anita responded to a PP casting call I put out when the model who I had booked for a shoot the next day was suddenly taken ill with less than 24 hours to go. Anita and I had half a day for pre-shoot comms and all discussions were very clear and to-the-point: The next afternoon we met at the studio and immediately got to work. Anita did her own makeup and hair styling to impeccable standards, and brought along a wide range of items from her wardrobe. We had several changes of look and set-up through the day and for each one Anita absolutely understood what I was aiming for in the shot, was totally cooperative, very patient while I fine-tuned lighting rigs, and added her own touches to the poses and expressions that really made the shots come alive. Also really engaging company, and funny too.

So, absolutely 100% recommended. A total professional, and absolutely brilliant model. I would very much like to shoot with Anita again.

I don't think that there is much that I can add to what others have said, I shot with Anita today - not for the first time - and she is quite simply a perfect model and an absolutely charming lady. How lucky that she is back in Somerset :)

I met Anita for the first time at our shoot at manse Studio near Bridgend, South Wales. She arrived bang on time and was ready to shoot in no time at all. Anita brought with her an amazing variety of outfits in different styles, plenty for a 5 hour shoot. With each change of outfit Anita altered her hair style to suit and I think we created some killer images. We had great rapport during the shoot which resulted in quite a laid-back afternoon. Pre shoot comms were excellent and detailed and I would have no hesitation in recommending Anita to any photographer. Anita's input into the shoot was invaluable, proving her professionalism for her craft.

We have already suggested a return match and I look forward to working with Anita again. :-)

Anita is an absolute delight to work with. Whatever style Anita brings her experience and works to get you the killer shots. Anita always brings wonderful clothing with her.

Thank you Anita for another excellent day in the studio.

Recommended without reservation.

I had the pleasure of meeting, and working with Anita on Saturday at a shoot with Bocote. She is such a lovely person, and beautiful to boot. Shooting with her was easy, and when reviewing images from sets we were able to quickly agree on any changes/improvements we wanted to make.

Cannot recommend her highly enough :)

I've known Anita for some time. We shot once a long while ago and have met socially. Last Saturday our paths crossed again and we had a great shoot at The Pit & Pendulum in Nottingham. We ran with a few ideas which we thought would suit the setting, plus some experimental shots which sort of evolved from our time there. I'm delighted with what we achieved in 4 hours and would shoot Anita any day of the week :) She has flawless skin, prepares her own hair and make-up to high standard and brings an array of beautiful items in her wardrobe. Anita can pose herself and tunes in with how you want the photos to look. Not only does she have a fantastic face, her exquisite figure is lean and toned. She is a wonderful model to work with and is recommended without hesitation.

Anita creates that winning recipe. Mixing excellent pre-shoot communication, preparation, professional positive attitude, attention to detail and versatility to create stunning results.

Your shots will sizzle and leave you wanting more.

I had an amazing shoot with Anita at the Ritz Carlton in Singapore …. A talented and beautiful model, and friendly and exciting person….

Would wholeheartedly recommend!

Quote (from pre-shoot discussions) - 'I have a good little latex collection that I could bring'.....!! :-) Well, thats certainly true.... More like - I have a stunning collection of bespoke, designer latex and I will bring a fabulous selection of different items along, more than enough to fill a 4 hour shoot....! My pictures show we shot 4 different outfits, all of which were fab. I was amazed by the ease and speed with which Anita could swap from one to the next - with just a quick spray and polish to be ready.

I has picked Anita up earlier from New Street - it was not difficult to spot her...! She was on time - and raring to go. Great fun to work with throughout - I am fairly sure she was doing things on The Facilities furniture which had never been done before....!! Very pleased with the results - they looked good on the camera, and look better still on a big screen. I must edit some more..!

I would be delighted to work with Anita again and would recommend her to anyone. A1 +++ !!!

Was fortunate enough to shoot with Anita in a Steven Perry workshop. Anita was top notch, an amazing model that oozes quality and professionalism. This shoot with Anita really helped me up my game, I wouldn't hesitate to book her in the future.

I got to shoot with the amazing Anita De Bauch who is one of my top 10 models to work with ever how cool is that. We had great comms, she turned up prepared and ready to shoot. Whilst I would like to believe it was my insight and abilities that created such an amazing set of images in my heart I know it was the talents of Anita and her perfect skin that made the shoot.

You all have to book her she is amazing and a definite addition to anyone's portfolio.

Thank you
