Had my first shoot with Arabella a few weeks ago now.

The shoot was for 4 hours at her home and I was made to feel very welcome. Communication with Arabella prior to shoot was excellent, and given the time we had for the shoot there was more than enough time to discuss my ideas.

The natural light in the various rooms in her home is great and offers plenty of opportunities and variety.

Arabella is a pleasure to work with and I'd hope to work with her at some point in the future.

Thank you 🙂

I had a lighting tutorial with Arabella. Arabella is fantastic very knowledgeable both sides of the camera and helped me lots with lighting techniques as well as camera settings to show me how to achieve the best possible images. She is a very patient professional model who poses with ease and knows how to get some great images in front of the camera, her portfolio images speak for themselves.

I would have no problem in recommending Arabella for anyone wanting to shoot with a model who can bring out the best in any photographer. She is also a lovely person as well. Thanks again for a great afternoon. Will definitely be shooting with Arabella in the future.

Arabella came to shoot a video concept for a client job, she was superb, the shoot was specifically hands and jewellery and she arrived having had a manicure specifically for the shoot.

It was a pleasure to work with someone who has a detailed knowledge and enthusiasm for photography, having seen on here some time ago she has a photography degree I as looking forward to working with Arabella.

I am very happy to reccomend Arabella.

Shooting with Arabella is just fantastic. We arranged to shoot at Mr Dave's home studio and were able to cover some quite different ideas. Pre-shoot communication was excellent and we agreed a range of themes for our long anticipated meeting. We took a tour of the grounds to finalise plans and quickly set about making the most of a sunny morning, as well as boudoir and studio.

Arabella is great fun on a shoot and responds quickly to any suggestions as well as being able to offer options to help things move forwards. We soon developed a great rapport that allowed us both to contribute ideas that benefitted the shoot as a whole.

If you have ever thought about working with Arabella, stop thinking about it and book a shoot with this tremendous lady as soon as possible. I hope we get the chance to work together again soon.

Working with Arabella is an amazing experience. She is not only an amazing model, with a lovely natural look, but a lovely person too. Our shoot was prolonged due to adverse weather conditions, whilst shooting outdoors in the forest. The rain came down hard and heavy, but Arabella just shrugged it off, enjoying the peace and serenity of the sounds and smells in the woods, completely a peace with the environment. We shot between showers, stopping to chat and drink tea. She has a great outlook on life and is very in tune with the world around her. The shoot was extraordinary and fun to do and I couldn't have asked for a better model or better company for the afternoon. We captured some great pictures and had fun talking about future shoot ideas. I can honestly say that this was one of the best shooting experiences I have had, and I can't wait for her to return to Devon again so we can cature some of those ideas on the camera.

If you haven't already worked with Arabella, then you should, it will be an awesome experience.

Thanks Arabella for a great afternoon, looking forward to next time x

Had my very first shoot With Arabella to day. It was a one to one shoot which took place at Dave's place at Exeter. I found her a warm and friendly model , communications between as to our shoot went well and we soon settled down to the shoot, 2 hrs together went too quickly. Arabella's professionalism showed through and went from one pose to another with out direction, however when I wanted a pose she responded well. Would like another shoot with her again. Can fully recommend her to other photographers.

I was able to work with the amazingly talented Arabella on her recent tour to Devon! We had discussed ideas/props etc before I arrived at Mr Dave's studio, and I love the results (considering one pic is now my avatar!).

Arabella is such a great person to work with, we had lots of laughs, put the world to rights and enjoyed a little bit of cake :) I hope to meet/work with her again some day, 100000% recommended.

I saw Arabella visiting Devon and I thought I would jump at the chance of shooting this beautiful lady!

We had plenty of communication prior to meeting, so we both came armed with clothes, props etc that made the shoot flow. Arabella is so lovely to work with and poses wonderfully and with ease, so made my job so much easier! She is very knowledgeable with lighting which helped when it came to a studio setup that we did.

I cannot highly recommend her enough, I hope to work (and giggle) with Arabella again one day!

Simply perfect in every way! Shooting Arabella is a dream. She is so confident, elegant and fluid in her posing that I feel the images I captured are mere stills from a more beautiful moving work of art.

The shoot itself was relaxed, enjoyable and productive - Arabella is the loveliest person to be around and to work with - and I am so very pleased with the results.

In summary, I can't put it better than Ghost Light Photography: If you have ever thought about working with Arabella, stop thinking about it and book a shoot now!

Totally recommended, and looking forward to the next time.

Had a great second shoot with Arabella at her beautiful home in Derbyshire.

Always chatty and always knowledgable. She is a real pleasure to work with.

I can't believe she only lives 15 minutes away and we have only shot twice!

Had a great time yesterday photographing Arabella along with PaigeAntonia at Natural Light Spaces. I'd been provided with plenty of information in advance about the event and it lived up to my expectations.

A "Cinderella" theme saw them arrive prepared with exquisite ballgowns and all the props needed along with well developed ideas and set designs. Both Arabella and PaigeAntonia were a joy to work with. The time just flew by as they worked hard to make sure I left with plenty of shots to play with.

I attended the Cinderella shoot with PaigeAntonia and Arabella. Arabella had so many great ideas to help make the shoot a success, from the props to poses, and is a lovely friendly young lady that was an absolute pleasure to work with.

I attened a Cinderella Event organised by Arabella and PaigeAntonio today at the Natural Light Spaces Studio.

WOW! - they had fabulous Ball Gowns, gloves, and even a tiara that looked a million dollars and were really looking like they were on the red carpet going to a Royal Premiere. They had organised some lovely and beautiful props to add to the atmosphere and used the excellent facilities of the Studio.

If they organise another one, don't miss it - they are too good to miss and should be seized with both hands. Obviously they are well recommended.

Arabella was one of two models that I’d booked months in advance and I was really looking forward to working with her. Over the previous few months, almost every model I worked with told me how lovely Arabella was when I mentioned that she was on my list of future shoots. And they were so right!

I met Arabella at her home which she uses as a studio with her own lighting. Arabella is a very talented woman with a degree in fine arts and photography and first demonstrated how to do portrait work with two softboxes.

All modeling sessions involve three components: the photographic suitability of the models, their posing ability, and their personality. Arabella excels in all three areas. She’s a very beautiful and voluptuous models with a wonderful face (really suited to portrait work). She is excellent at posing … one of the very best of models. She’s very easy to get on with, very intelligent and a great conversationalist.

I’ve never met a model I didn’t like or with whom I did not get on well. However, I do have to say that Arabella is one of the very best and most professional models I’ve ever worked with. Of course, I’d recommend Arabella without hesitation and would be delighted to work with her again.

Had a Fantastic shoot with Arabella at my local studio :) its been 3 years since we last shot together I hadn't realise it had been so long and after a good chat ,a cuppa tea and put the world to rights I soon had her in front of my Camera :)

What can I say Arabella is a Superb model, Professional warm friendly chatty and a pleasure to work with, rolled with my ideas, helped me play with the lighting and added her own input - I highly recommend her :) :)

thanks again Arabella for a great shoot and we must not leave it for so long until we shoot again :) xx

My third shoot with Arabella, this time at Hacienda on her studio day there. Taking advantage of the fantastic light offered by this studio we worked a handful of sets solely working the natural light.

Working with Arabella is so easy. Excellent initial communication, discuss a few ideas, share some sample mood boards and your sorted – she’s ready to help your create your images.

We worked a variety of looks from lifestyle, through lingerie to nude. As on previous shoots little or no direction is needed. Arabella knows how the light plays and adapts as required. Back of camera reviews help her to refine poise and pose.

As on all shoots, I invite the model to let me know if there is something they want to shoot. I like to be challenged, I might not always be successful but willing to try. Inspired by a huge patterned rug, Arabella wanted to try some art nude floorscape shots, contrasting the body against the rugs pattern and texture. Next thing I’m atop some small steps, and Arabella is making awesome shapes on the floor, achieved some great images that neither of us had preconceived.

Three hours simply flew by, more great images captured. I promise to catch up and post some edits - sooner rather than later.

As ever highly recommended, and we shall shoot again I’m sure.

I have been looking to shoot with Arabella for some time now, so when I saw the casting for the Hacienda I booked right away! All comms were excellent and Arabella arrived on time. Sean from The Hacienda offered us some refreshments and then we got into the shoot.

It was a pleasure to work with Arabella, she's very experienced and full of ideas and suggestions - her experience behind the lens also came in handy too!

A fun and genuine person to work with and a fantastic model, I wholeheartedly recommend Arabella!!

So, that Arabella. Where do I start? I believe we first shot together near the end of 2014 and I guess we must have made an impression on each other that day...as I keep booking her, and she keeps turning up! But now some three years down the line I still look forward to our shoots as it's not really photography, it's meeting up with your bud. We've achieved the odd FPI along the way, and we're always looking for a certain thing or some kind of new idea to keep inspiring each other. Needless to say when I had a HUGE project in mind, she was at the top of my list of people I know will help me create something truly special. She's a real good laugh as well, and very down-to-earth too. More or less every time we message each other, we eventually get around to talking about our shoot or an idea...once our other gossip is out of the way! She also has a good head on her shoulders, and you cannot pull the wool over her eyes even if you tried. On top of all that, she looks amazing. You can probably take a shot of her with your lens cap still on, and it would look brilliant. Basically Arabella is one of THE best models I've ever worked with, and she's absolutely phenomenal at what she does. Quite simply she is one person that I could never get tired of working with, and if you've worked with her too you'll probably be nodding your head as you read this. I can't wait to work with her again later this year on something really BIG. A brilliant model, a lovely person and I'm fortunate enough to call her a friend. EXTREMELY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Punctual and professional. Arabella has an engaging personality and an excellent understanding of what the photographer wants. I would be glad to work with her again. James.

I always look forward to working with Arabella. She's just so wonderful to shoot. She is one of the most experienced models around, but there is never a hint of going though the motions. She poses effortlessly and takes direction with ease. Best of all she really easy to get on with and the shoots always fly by.

If you book one model this year, it really should be her.
