I was fortunate to shoot Arabella at her Model Day at Mansion Photographic Studio. During the 3 hours we used a range of the studio sets with Arabella choosing her outfits to complement the sets. We covered a range of images from fashion through to nude. As a photographer herself she certainly got the most out of each of the sets. A great personality and very easy to work with.

Yet another very productive shoot with Arabella. She's always full of ideas and it's obvious from her enthusiasm that as well as taking her modelling career seriously, she also likes to make a shoot with her fun.

If you haven't had a shoot with her then treat yourself, you'll come away with some great shots.

Had another great shoot with Arabella before Christmas.

As for a recommendation, I'd say read her profile then have a look at her pics: everything she says is true.

One of the best and truly professional models around. She's also very easy to talk to, always puts her heart into a shoot and will put you at ease right away - you won't glance round to find her with her head stuck in her phone, in fact I think she turns it off - what a refreshing change!

Captured in time

What can I say about Arabella, I do not know how to describe beyond totally awesome, I was blown away with how professional and polite she was considering this was only my 2nd proper shoot. To say I left happy is an understatement. Let's not forget Mr Dave, thank you for all your help.

Huge thank you Arabella, I feel like I could take on the World now with the confidence you have given me. See you soon.

On Thursday evening I had a shoot with the wonderful Arabella. I received a message from her regarding a cancelled shoot and she wondered if I would be interested in working with her. I haven't shot with a model for nearly 6 months as I have been suffering with confidence issues, and I nearly didn't accept her invitation. I am so glad that I did!

On arriving at Mr Dave's studio, I was introduced to Arabella and was greeted with warmth, kindness, encouragement and enthusiasm. Despite being very nervous, Arabella soon had me feeling very comfortable and relaxed; and after discussing my ideas for the shoot, which involved lots of candles, props and working in dark conditions, we got to shooting.

Arabella is full of encouragement and enthusiasm, going with the flow of my original idea which very quickly developed into an amazing experience. She took on the roll of a character in the theme that I was shooting and brought my ideas to life.

I spent a couple hours with Arabella and had one of the best photography experiences ever! We produced some wonderfully creative images and I am looking forward to sharing them.

I thoroughly enjoyed my shoot with Arabella, and feel so much more confident in my ability as a photographer. This is due to the encouragement and support she gave me. I would highly recommend working with her and hope to shoot with her again one day.

Organised a very short notice shoot with Arabella yesterday at Mr. Daves studio. A brief taster session as I had not used the studio previously and was not sure if it would suit my requirements.

Arabella was a delight , Her posing seemed effortless, and she quickly grasped the needs of the shoot. Took direction well and when holding props, in this instance sun glasses, sun cream etc. her hands and fingers always looked beautifully placed and elegant. This is a rare talent that many models fail to achieve, or fail to appreciate the importance of pretty hands.

Arabella is highly recommended.

Managed to arrange a shoot with Arabella during her first tour to the South West... pre shoot comms were excellent and although I didn't manage to shoot some video (for technical reasons) as we planned I did take some great images. We got on fine right from the start and worked really well together.

Very talented, dedicated and professional model, thanks for a fun time..

Highly recommended...

Looking forward to your next visit....

I had the pleasure of shooting Arabella today at Mr Dave's home. It was easy to arrange and comms were simple.

Arabella has a great look and poses. She's always professional and had with her a wide range of clothes.

Arabella's chatty and the time did seem to fly by; it's always good to shoot a model who understands the other side of the camera. She was also very patient when my camera settings got changed by mistake and I was trying to work out what happened.

It was a fun few hours and we got some great pictures. Highly recommended :-D

Perfected Image

Well...... Where shall we begin?!

I shall say nothing about Arabella's ability as a model, as the reviews before mine and her images say it all! But yes, she is that good!

But she is so much fun to work with, great banter. Incredibly allowing of my insistent fiddling and faffing with lights and just generally an absolute pleasure to be around and work with.

Thank you hun!

Well that was a great shoot.

Everything seems as on the profile but it does not say how easy and how much fun to work with Arrabella is.

Great comms and well prepared.

Arrabella profile is very clear but does not say how good she really is and she is very good.

Hope to work with again.

Thanks

Arabella is one of the most professional models that I'm proud to say that i worked with. Within 4 Hours we got so much done. Her curves are so sexy and i was so inspired I'm pretty sure i chatted too much throughout the shoot lol. I tend to love the curvy models as they can really show there curves through certain positions . I would recommend Arabella in an instance her method of modelling is somewhat theatric . She would move her body slowly and through each transition i would see something Fabulous of which i would tell her to freeze and then id snap. Very easy to work with and i cannot wait to get her in again for some other ideas i have.

10 Stars to her all day every day

Regards

Jem and Jules

I approached Arabella about a shoot as I wanted a model with the ability to give strong expressions.

Really professional approach to the shoot, managed to take my vague brief and pick out some excellent styling choices - better than I would have chosen myself.

We shot at one of Arabella's awesome secret locations and despite the bitterly cold wind she just kept on working cheerfully and without a complaint. Even in the couple of hours or so we were there we got so many images that are worth editing.

I particularly liked the way Arabella contributed to the shoot with ideas and taking each vague concept and absolutely rocking it.

Friendly, professional, chatty and hardworking. Arabella could make any photographer look good.

Needless to say, very highly recommended and I will be booking another shoot with her soon

Thanks Arabella! :-)

Had the most wonderful time yesterday shooting with Arabella.

This was our first shoot together,which we've finally got done after talking about it for months,so glad we've got there in the end.We decided to shoot at Elvaston Castle Country park near Derby,not too far from Arabella's home.We were blessed with a beautiful Autumn day,aside from one 5 minute downpour.

After arriving at the Park,we decided a pot of tea was in order before we started.Five hours later,taking time out for another pot and scone with clotted cream,we had got a fab set of pics with around four different outfits.

I don't need to say it really,I'm sure it's all been said before,but Arabella is just a joy to work with....little direction needed from me,great poses and variety from this beautiful and talented young lady.

I'm thrilled with the pictures we got and can't wait to shoot with Arabella again,such a great shoot and such good fun as well......we had a good laugh together throughout.

Thank you Arabella.....your a real star.x

Had my first ever model shoot today, it was with Arabella..absolutely brilliant. She gave clear guidance on indoor lighting techniques seamlessly moving into her modelling. A true professional at her art. Couldn't have asked for more. Thanks Arabella...

My first shoot with Arabella today - it won't be the last! She is a delight to work with, and as many others have said before me, totally professional and thoroughly dedicated. I have no idea how she manages to pull off the perfect pose, time after time after time. Not only is she a great model to work with, she knows all about the other side of the camera too, and that is a great asset. We captured so many wonderful shots it's going to take forever to process them all - there were so few failures ( and they were my fault!).

Thank you Arabella, for a great day. We'll be shooting again soon I hope.

Yet another fantastic shoot with the fantastic model Arabella.

This time on location in the Derbyshire Peak District entirely organised by Arabella all I had to do was turn up and shoot. The shoot was as advertised and ran very smoothly plus it was extremely enjoyable. The weather tried its best to put a dampener on proceedings but we were having none of it; a most enjoyable shoot from start to finish.

I have shot with Arabella before and I will be again for sure; Arabella is top class. What can I say other than highly, extremely and without doubt recommended to any photographer.

I attended a location shoot today that Arabella had organised. The arrangements were all well planned, and the locations scouted beforehand. She arrived in good time, and ready to shoot.

Arabella is a consummate professional, understanding not only what is required of a model, but also the technical considerations facing the photographer.

Furthermore, she had sourced costumes especially for the occasion. I have many striking images from this event, and l look forward to future photo opportunities.

Thanks for a great day.

I jumped onto this workshop organised by Arabella and another model at the last minute and I am so glad that I did! I was considering contacting her regarding working with her when this opportunity arose and I got the bonus of working with her on her own and as a duo with the other model :-)

Arabella has so many outstanding references that I don't need to repeat what has already been said - only to say it is all true!

What I would like to say is how awesome the Workshop was - the models working together and singly provided a terrific day. It was a totally professional yet fun packed day. The models led the day providing locations, scenarios, costume and transport!

Working together with another photographer having a different style we were both given consideration and the day flowed easily into an enjoyable and productive experience and I feel that we all learned something from each other.

Both models had immaculate make-up and costumes which they changed for the different locations.

The professional skills and dedication of the very experienced models shone through in leading the workshop which provided us with great images, however they also welcomed input from the photographers which was much appreciated.

If you get the chance to attend one of these workshops do not miss it!

Thanks for a really fab day Arabella which I will remember and benefit from for a long time and look forward to working with you again sometime in the future. :-) xx

I had my fourth ever Purpleport Photoshoot yesterday and it was with the models Arabella and PaigeAntonia and another photographer.

I had read quite a few photographer's comments singing the praises of Arabella but you wonder if they were exagerating and was working with her actually that good. Oh Boy! I fully believe the comments about Arabella!

As well as looking gorgeous, she knows how to do the dramatic poses but what really impressed me was, unlike Madonna's song 'Vogue', Arabella doesn't 'strike a pose', she flows elegantly, slowly, and gracefully from one pose to the next such that you could take a picture as she moved between her poses and that snatched one could be 'THE' photo from the shoot.

We were shooting in the Peak District National Park and used three locations over the 4 hours - time flew by as we experimented with different looks and poses first at the side of a resevoir, then amongst some trees, then finally on the top of a peak amongst the heather.

Arabella has studied Photography from behind the Lens and also did ballet for 4 years so she has good ideas as to what makes a striking picture. With my limited experience here through Purpleport, it was REAL pleasure working with her, I suppose a 'Masterclass' for me and I cannot recommend her enough. She should be on everybody's 'Would like to work with' list.

Thanks Arabella. :-)

Had a 2 hour home shoot with Arabella.

She posed and interpreted my ideas to perfection and was very professional and knowledgeable, not only about how to model but the photography side of a shoot.

I consider myself quite experienced model photographer now yet I learned a lot during a very enjoyable shoot. As she says in her notes she is not a typical model, and all the better for this.

I would recommend Arabella with out reservation, especially to photographers starting out.

One of the best I have worked with.
