This must be at least my seventh shoot with Bella in England, Wales and in between. They are always artistic, productive, always developing in ways I hadn't expected (in a good way), always fabulous images coming out of it. Each shoot is a lot of fun and interesting conversation had in the process. The only problem is the list of new ideas that cropped up just waiting to be explored. She's always been reliable and easy to work with too.

Thanks Arabella

I had my first shoot with Arabella today at a hotel I'm staying at in Bristol while visiting an old friend.

We did a four-hour shoot ranging from portrait to artistic nude. Of all the models within about 40 miles from Bristol, I chose Arabella because she fitted my idea of the perfect model. And I was not disappointed.

Arabella is a lovely model photographically. But she's so much more than the static images you see of her reveal. She's an actress. Her range of poses and variations is seemingly infinite. Out of the 230 or so models I've shot in my seven years of model photography, I can't think of anyone more versatile and inventive.

Arabella is not only versatile; she radiates enthusiasm for modelling. It's not simply a job for her, it's a vocation. I would recommend Arabella to any beginner because she's a great model and very easy to work with. However, I do feel she'd be wasted on a beginner ... she is one of the best I've worked with and if a photographer is looking for talent, enthusiasm, originality, and versatility then Arabella should be their first choice.

Our shoot went well and Arabella was great to talk to. She's open and friendly and we have a great time discussing many aspects of modelling.

I had one regret. Note to self: avoid shooting in a small hotel room with little space and without your usual lighting equipment ... especially when you have such an exceptional good model.

I had my first shoot with Arabella and it was as enjoyable and productive. Arabella is a lovely, warm person; she's interesting, friendly and engaging; has a considered way of thinking which really connected with me and has a genuine interest in making art and which was of great benefit while shooting.

Shooting was relaxed, and paced; what a luxury! She posed with beautiful elegance and expression.

In summary then, I was totally blown away by Arabella's abilities, her commitment, and her character. She's a pleasure to work with! Planning to do more shoots with her again shortly with different ideas, themes.

Highly recommend! :)

I had my first shoot with Arabella today, and I can definitely highly recommend working with her.

I met her near the 1st location where we would be shooting, and she arrived with her hair and makeup done to a great standard and was able to quickly alter her outfit to be ready to start before I'd even finished setting up my lighting.

Arabella poses freely to a professional level, and doesn't require any prompting/instruction. She is very expressive in the photos, and you'll definitely be very impressed with what you capture together.

We changed location two other times during the shoot, and each time, her outfit choices really worked well with the location.

Working with Arabella was a pleasure. She is friendly and there weren't any awkward silences and she really takes an interest in making sure that you are both happy with the shots you are creating.

The only downside to the shoot is that time doesn't stop, as you'll find your having that much fun working with her that you won't notice time flying by quickly. However that is where you take the opportunity to arrange your next shoot with her :)

Great Fun Day. Arabella welcomed me into her home and we keenly discussed our different interpretations of our pre-shoot moodboards and added extra ideas. The input was equally 50/50. Once the shoot started it was clear that Arabella is a professional experienced model who brings so much to each shot. We chatted throughout and time passed far too quickly but we got a lot of different looks done within the time and were both pleased with the results. Already discussed future shoots we'd like to work together on. Highly recommended !

I had a very enjoyable shoot with Arabella today. She is very professional , she has a keen interest in the making of the images, and is also good fun to work with.

I would highly recommend her.

A first shoot with Arabella proved to be such an enjoyable experience. Pre-shoot comms were excellent, suggesting that Arabella would be very well prepared…she certainly was.

A range of outfits and looks selected to suit the sets worked very well.

Working in the area around Arabella’s home, we shot several different sets in different locations, and the time just flew by. Arabella had planned well, but we also added in some ideas that occurred to us as we worked; the spontaneity was great. It was easy to develop a working relationship and a dynamic with Arabella, always a huge positive in any first shoot.

Arabella is vivacious, full of energy and zest, unafraid of shooting in public to achieve the images, and together with a genuine passion and pride in her modelling work it’s an irresistible combination.

Highly recommended. Hopefully further shoots in the future.

Had a great shoot with Arabella at her flat.

She has an excellent alternative style and poses well. She does excellent expressions and did particularly well with the Punk in-character photos.

Would work with Arabella again.

Had a fab shoot with Arabella yesterday at her home studio.

Arabella is a versatile model, who really does deliver shot after shot.

She poses with ease and confidence and suits any style.

As important, she is a lovely person, fun, friendly, chatty and a pleasure to spend some time with, and loves metal music...

Highly recommended.

I had my first shoot with Arabella on Friday. I was surprised how down to earth she was, sort of mature for her years. We were on the same wavelength throughout the shoot, which meant it was easy to get the shots as intended and time went too quickly. Arabella loves the creative process which is what makes her a great model, so the more involved she is with the process the better the results are. Hopefully we will work together again soon. Thanks Arabella!

I’ve just finished an extremely productive shoot with beautiful, talented and above all creative Arabella Black, she was a joy to work with and time just flew by. I thoroughly recommend Arabella and I’m already planning our next shoot.

Well, I didn't expect how well he shoot would go, My first shoot with Arabella and it was as enjoyable and productive as I had hoped, and even more that i could have though!

Arabella is an amazing person; she's imcredibly interesting, friendly and engaging; has a creaive mindset which is a blessing, as she thinks of which pose suits the spot and if sees a spot she likes she will ask to move there so you know you will get a great image! We connected on a creativity and friendship level! A genuine interest and drive in making art and which was of great benefit while shooting. Conversation was fun and so enjoyable and flowed effortlessly.

Arabella is brilliant, I gave her a pose and she nailed it right of the bat! Even when left to do her own thing jyst creates star quality images! Shooting was at a relaxed and calm pace that is a luxury when shooting! We shot at a disused industrial building and rocked every second and spot we shot at! Arabrella is driven to get the best image possible.

I was totally blown away by Arabella's abilities, her commitment and outright possitive confident character. She is a pleasure to work with! If get the chance to work with her! Well worth booking will not be disappointed

Recommend without a doubt!

Thankyou Arabella for the Incredible shoot today! Hopefully we can work together again (already looking forward to next shoot with you)

Without wishing to imply any adverse comments on any of the models I have worked with previously, this was the most enjoyable shoot that I have experienced. Arabella is warm, personable, funny, so easy to get on with. She poses naturally in any number of different styles. She is full of her own ideas, while those that are suggested to her she picks up and develops. And she is stunningly beautiful.

It was such fun to be with Arabella, while in the shoot we created some great images. I am already planning the next shoot with Arabella.

Thank you, Arabella, for such a lovely afternoon!

Our second shoot together. This time we worked from her flat because of the bad weather, improvising with furniture and objects that were to hand. Arabella pulled out all the stops to give excellent results. She comes highly recommended and thank you for the lovely mint tea.

What an amazing model. From the time we started to the time we finished 3 hours later, Arabella was bubbly chatty but fully professional. I hardly guided her through what poses I would like, she just had so many in her locker. Her art nude poses are exceptional. I highly recommend her, book her up early if you don't want to miss out.

I shot with Arabella two years ago, and although we intended to do more shoots, fate conspired against us. So we finally managed to book another shoot in, and the results were awesome! I had half an idea for what to do, but it was largely improvised - although the way it came together was better than most of the shoots I have done with detailed planning.

I really cannot fault her in any way. Outfits and poses were 100%, and she knows how to keep a conversation going so no awkward silences. I have been planning to stop shooting for a while now, but working with Arabella has got my enthusiasm going again. Highly recommended!

RobertoSegate

Well, I didn't expect that! My first shoot with Arabella and it was as enjoyable and productive as I had hoped, and much more so!

Arabella is a lovely, lovely person; she's interesting, friendly and engaging; has a considered way of thinking which really connected with me and has a genuine interest in making art and which was of great benefit while shooting. Conversation was diverse and flowed effortlessly.

Arabella is thoughtful; each scene we shot was prefaced with ideas and brief narrative outlines. Shooting was relaxed, pace was calm; what a luxury! We shot several short scenes, or vignettes, and Arabella posed with beautiful elegance and expression. She's fearless; gives 100% throughout. Covered in mess, she is driven to be the character.

In summary then, I was totally blown away by Arabella's abilities, her commitment, and her character. She's a pleasure to work with!

Recommend? 100% YES!

I had the pleasure of meeting Arabella today specifically to shoot an adult film. Arabella is an authentic artist who has fire in her belly. Accommodated by her striking looks and luscious dark hair, there was a contrast in visual aesthetics which complimented the narrative of the film we were shooting.

I have to commend this wonderful young vibrant woman for putting such faith into Artheart and I, as a collaborative team we had a very distinct vision and Arabella surpassed all expectations, exceeding even my highest expectations.

I would highly recommend her, this girl is a muse to the camera and you would be a fool to not book a shoot with her.

Looking forward to our next chapter of collaborative work.

Best,

Lee

Having worked with Arabella several times I knew she would be perfect for a project I have under development with Love-Lee.

Arabella is an extraordinary model as well as a wonderful human being. Art is at the centre of her core and those artists she references as influential to her are testimony to her belief and desire to make work that matters regardless if one like it or not. Like those handful of authentic art driven models she is more focused upon what the message is than outright acclaim.

I consider myself fortunate that she is connected enough to even want to work with ArtHeart.

My highest recommendations sufficiently witness my admiration for this artist!
