My first shoot with Arkandia.

Pre-shoot communications planned with great communications from start to finish.

Arkandia arrived in time and we managed some additional time to chat and discuss the shoot sets while looking at our surroundings and discussing the various options available.

Arkandia was an excellent communicator and added value with her great ideas, excellent posing to the theme and look. The shoot went extremely well and we managed to get a number of wonderful images .

I have no hesitation in recommending Arkandia as a very positive and professional model, able to pose well and add value to any shoot. Many thanks for the shoot Arkandia and I look forward to working with you again some time soon.

The whole shoot was an absolute pleasure from start to finish & I hope the first of many.

Many thanks Photo-81.

100% recommended !!!

Despite southern trains doing its very best to mess up our first shoot, Arkandia's spot-on communications and punctuality saved the day. A big thank you for saving my nerves.

Arkandia is thoroughly professional -she managed to fit all of the clothing etc that I had suggested into two small bags, but was also very open to mixing and matching, and trying new ideas. She also had some very good suggestions of her own that made for an interesting twist. I casually suggested to Arkandia that she has the sort of enigmatic aura of a Mona Lisa, but I think on reflection, it's true. It's an air of mystery that really adds to her appeal to the camera. I am delighted to recommend her wholeheartedly and would book her again in a heartbeat. In fact, I am trying to do just that as I write.

My first shoot with Arkandia, a very straightforward shoot easily discussed and planned with great communications from start to finish. Arkandia arrived early and we managed some additional time to chat and discuss the shoot sets while looking at our surroundings and discussing the various options available. Arkandia was an excellent communicator and added value with her great ideas, excellent posing and facial expressions to the theme and look. The shoot went extremely well and we managed to get a number of wonderful images and sets given our limited space. I have no hesitation in recommending Arkandia as a very positive and professional model, able to pose well and add value to any shoot. Many thanks for the shoot Arkandia and I look forward to working with you again some time soon. Many thanks AlexW

Arkandia and I had such a fruitful first shoot that we set ourselves a challenge to subvert and do the opposite for the second. Gone was black and white and stark and candid and in came full, artifical technicolor madness! Vibrant explosion of high contrast primary colour.

We were both out of our comfort zone although totally comfortable with eachother and I feel that we nailed it despite many adversities on the day. Arkandia is such a beautiful, next level model - unafraid to try anything and unafraid to look ridiculous - and the more ridiculous a shot that we composed the better the end results!! She was my first ever "second shoot" for a reason because I trusted her implicitly and also because her eyes do all the heavy lifting when it comes to drama in every shot. She makes my job as photographer very easily and I feel honoured because I know how choosey she is!! TEN stars out of FIVE.

Had a great shoot with Arkandia, she's very easy to work with and very professional and dedicated. Already planning to work with her again in the new year. Highly recommended.

What an honour to be trusted by the almost-mythical Arkandia to collaborate on her first photo shoot in over 10 years! It felt like working with Garbo, self-exiled in her Hollywood mansion - and I'm so immensely proud of the work we've already produced together.

Arkandia trusted me with a vision / aesthetic that I wanted to utilise to bring out her startling French Hollywood Megastar alluring, seductive beauty and she was such an amazing partner, co-producer and communicative artistic spirit.

Utterly fearless, and exceedingly supportive and clear about how she is feeling; Arkandia brought great suggestions and creative ideas and we both benefited from not having a super-rigid, imposed set of shots - instead we created hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of knockout monochrome lightning in a bottle. Brighton didn't know what hit it. I still feel shell-shocked over the amazing results 24 hours later - again, I feel so honoured that she trusted me.

C'était spectaculaire
