References for Artemis Fauna

This was my second shoot with Artemis having spent a particualy enjoyable evening attending one of Artemis's Secret Garden events, where Ivory Flame and Carla Monaco also modelled.

The event was exellently organised by Artemis, who even arranged a lovely evening and snacks to keep us going. The location was a fabulous private garden which lent itself to a great many shoot possibilities and I know there is plenty more to be had there. I have no hesitation at all in recommending joining in any event arranged by her, such first class photography opportunities, and I do enjoy meeting and working with other fine photographers. They do challenge a photographer to work quickly and think on their feet. That said Artemis takes care to ensure the event goes smoothly and everyone gets a fair chance to shoot.

After 1443 previous references, I feel I can add little about Artemis the model, but I will say she is both every bit the superb versatile and professional model of her reputation and a particularly lovely person to work with. Shoots with Artemis are relaxed, fun and productive.

Thank you again Artemis for rather special evening.

A great evening shooting Artemis, plus Carla Monaco and Ivory Flame, in the Secret Garden. Artemis is a joy to work with, she poses beautifully in every shot. And she looked just great in this lovely location. And as well as being a wonderful model, she had organised this shoot and made sure that everything went smoothly and to schedule. Just perfect! I very highly recommend Artemis to any photographer.

I recently had the pleasure of enjoying the company of the super experience model Artemis who kindly arranged a Secret Garden group shoot. Not only was the shoot really well organised but Artemis along with her chosen models were some of the finest you could experience in the UK.

A lovely evening shooting in a glorious location with beautiful models accompanied with coffee and cake. Sign me up again....

I first worked with Artemis 7 years ago and when we arranged shoot number 2 in a pretty little poppy field i knew it would be awesome.

Artemis is one of those models where poses flow non stop and she instinctively knows what the photographer wants.

She is so easy to work with and great company.

Can't wait to get stuck into the editing.

ps. She is also a fantastic driver :)

My first shoot with the lovely Artemis and it totally exceeded my expectations. I felt completely at ease from the moment I walked through the front door and the three hour shoot just flew by. Apart from being the ultimate model in front of the camera with artistic flair in posing and choice of costume she is knowledgeable about technical matters behind the camera and was willing to suggest lighting choices and camera settings that would best achieve the results we were after. It was a joy to spend time with this lady. I believe she is the best model I have worked with. I can't recommend her highly enough. I look forward to our next session. Thank you Artemis.

I FINALLY had a chance to work with Artemis, courtesy of the awesome "Back to the 70s" event that she arranged / styled at The Hacienda in London, last week.

The day itself was excellent, so I want to first of all commend you to her organisational and styling skills for putting on events and strongly recommend that you take any opportunity that you can to get on one of her events.

It is also important that I leave no doubt that Artemis is an excellent, instinctive model, and that shooting with her is an absolute joy. I am very pleased with the images we created on the day and I look forward to, hopefully, working with her again at some point in the not too distant future. If you are looking for a model who is absolutely at the top of their game, for anything from fashion to fine-art nude, then she is an excellent choice and I commend her to you in the strongest positive terms.

Errrr.... AWESOME!!

That's pretty much the only word to describe both Artemis and the 'Back to the 70s' event she hosted at The Hacienda.

As other references will confirm, the event was superb. Attention to detail throughout: the sets, the styling, the soundtrack, the snacks etc. etc. all led to a fantastic day etc. Even though I was booked for the last day (of four), the enthusiasm was still there, both in front of the camera and behind the scenes as event organiser keeping things rolling along. The desire that all attending photographers left with memory cards and rolls of film full of great images was apparent throughout the day.

Thank you Artemis for a great day, till next time .... socky - socky ;)

When I last worked with Artemis back at the beginning of the year, she mentioned to me that she was planning a 70's Penthouse themed shoot and would I be interested.During a break in our shoot she showed me a moodboard and some images that Eyas had taken to give me some idea of what to expect, needless to say I was very interested and asker her to keep a full day slot for me.

Fast forward to June,I arrived at The Hacienda and was faced with a time warp back to the 70's. The attention to detail on each of the sets was outstanding and clearly showed the amount of love and dedication Artemis had put into making the event one to remember.Then there was her choice of models,Carla Monaco who I had worked with a few years ago and Monika Laura Smith someone who had been on my wtww list for sometime.All three of them threw themselves into the event and with some excellent styling worked hard to create some outstanding images.

All in all an awesome day with some exceptional people.Thank you Artemis for inviting me to join you and sorry for the extremely late reference.

I was lucky enough to attend The latest themed shoot by Artemis "Back to The 70's"with Carla Monaco and Monika Lara Smith It was like walking into a time warp. Artemis's attention to detail is second to none, the time and effort put into creating 4 stunning sets, sourcing clothes and props was again amazing. As always Artemis was the consummate professional ensuring everything ran to schedule and also getting creative on the sets. As everyone who shoots with her must say if you get the chance to work with her then do so!!

I had often heard of the famous “Artemis arranged events” but had never been to one until this weekend when I attended her “Back to the 70s” themed shoot. Man! What a blast!

As you would expect from her, everything was organized extremely well and such attention paid to the costumes, background music and props - all sourced by her. The attention to detail was amazing, even down to ensuring that the 3 models had “tan lines”. Despite the pressure she must have been under ensuring that everything ran to time and that both of us photographers were happy, she was still her usual happy, bouncy and helpful self.

If you get a chance to work with Artemis in the future either on a one to one basis or at an event, just boogie on down and book her! 10 – 4 Good Buddy!

Artemis encouraged me to participate in her 1970's themed weekender which co starred Carla Monaco and Monika Lara Smith. Not only has it turned out to be one of the major highlights of my 2019, but indeed one of the fondest memories of my life.

Just one look, and I could appreciate the time and hard work put into making sure that the party went off with a bang so loud, you could hear it in South Wales.

Artemis and her band well and truly brought back the spirit of the decade. The afternoon at the London Hacienda did evoke a few sweet childhood memories for me. During one particular scene, I really felt that I was transported back and finding myself photographing an album cover. Almost a dream come true!

Despite the fact that Artemis was battling with a cold and a toothache, she spent the day making sure that I was looked after even though she already had a lot on her plate.

Thank you so much Artemis for your continuing encouragement, and for inviting me to such a momentous occasion which is inspiring me as I write.

Its a pity that it was only a dream, otherwise I would have done a runner with your album's master tapes and sent them to Harvest and/or Vertigo ;) Gotta go now, I can hear John Peel calling.....(Ramees)

I was so delighted when Artemis asked me to do the hair on her ( back to the 70s) themed shoot, well I don't know where to begin cos she pushed the boat out😍 The attention to detail was awesome! She had spent months sorting furniture, clothes , props , jewellery and gosh it was like we were there in the 70s , 😀 Artemis spent time sorting each set, did time tables for each model , it all ran like clockwork, 😀❤️ Artemis is a true professional , creative and beautiful model, she's elegant and poses to perfection 😀 Artemis is lovely to be around , we laughed and had so much fun , she's easy going with a stunning personality 😀She let me create my hairstyles on her and even the far rah flicks 😀 The images throughout the weekend were stunning and all her hard work paid off 😀 I felt truly proud to be part of her team and hope I can work with her again😍 Not only is she a beautiful model she's a awesome director 😍 I've made a true friend and loved every minute being with her and Carla Monica 😍 Recommend Artemis 100 %

Thank you once again

Wow, where to start?! Artemis’ events are becoming something of a legend and her “Back to the 70s” event at The Hacienda is no exception. The girls, the clothes, the music, the warehouse apartment - it was though I’d been transported back in time to be a 70s playboy for the day (in my dreams, obvs!). It was a quality event from start to finish - four wonderfully staged sets, loads of imaginatively chosen period clothes and props, and three very beautiful and talented models (Artemis, Carla and Natasha). It’s the little things that make the difference and so much thought and attention had gone into the details, from the tanlines all the way through to having a hair stylist on hand for the period “do’s”. As if organising the event wasn’t enough, Artemis was obviously front of stage as one of the models and delivered yet another star turn. What I love about working with Artemis is that she lives and breathes the role and every little gesture and nuance in her posing takes an already exquisitely crafted picture to whole other level of story-telling. First class, the best-of-the-best. And I was there - yeah baby! 😃

I finally got to shoot with Artemis during her 70s event she was the creative director for her themed event at The Hacienda. The Saturday I had booked on a photographer, but had also been asked to do the BTS of the event on some of the other days. As a photographer, the day I was there, the event ran smoothly (as it did on the other days I was there too) and the attention to detail of the sets, the outfits, the tan-lines and even the breaks/lunch with food that had been around then that was still available today (wagon wheels, etc) and presented on plastic serving dishes so that the theme of the event even ran through there.

I think everyone who has attended the event has also mentioned the sets. It literally felt like you had stepped into the 70s with four sets that really help capture the feel of the time. Even small props like a lava lamp, vinyl records, a 70s dial phone, a Chopper bike and a hair dryer prop all helped transport you back. Add to that the styling of outfits, the hair and makeup and even before you'd pressed the button on the camera you were getting the feeling something special was happening.

Artemis herself kept everything running smoothly, but there didn't feel any pressure when shooting to a time as her and the fellow models made sure they were trying to help you to get the best shots you could be they in solo, duo or trio shots. The event time flew by each and everyday.

For the BTS side of working with Artemis, she had a vision for it and it was great to talk to her before the event so that I knew what she had in her vision and to help to try to get that captured both in BTS pictures and on the BTS video of the event.

Working with her over the course of several of the days of the event, I can see why a lot of people like working with her as she is professional, puts more than a 100% into her work, but can also take herself not too seriously with lots of BTS outtakes and captured moments that round off an experience that will remain with me for a long time and has set the bar for events.

Ummm... where to start. There are 1400+ positive references for Artemis and almost everything wonderful is already said about her. So let me try; apart from being a professional, wonderful, gorgeous, beautiful, kind-hearted, versatile, lovely, fun, elegant; she is also a great organiser.

I attended her 'Back to 70s' event at 'The Hacienda'. She has actually transformed the place to 70s. The attention to detail and the meticulous planning is visible the moment you enter the studio. Hats off to her and team for this event. Not only did I get some wonderful images, I learned something new as well. Overall a fantastic and nostalgic evening.

Had another hugely enjoyable shoot with Artemis yesterday. This was as part of her 70s themed shoot at @hacienda studios in London. The amount of attention to detail and sheer bl**dy hard work Artemis put in to this event was just gobsmacking. The props and set design were just incredible. I mean - cheese and pineapple on sticks and of course the gherkins (or something :)).

Seriously, - Artemis is -

- a seriously good organiser, making sure everything works like clockwork,

- a fantastic and versatile model, at the very top of her game,

- a lovely person.

Recommended without hesitation.

If you see one of Artemis's events appear on the castings or events section, then don't think twice about booking, because you will miss out ! Easily the best organised event that I've attended, somehow time was turned back to the 1970's and the meticulously prepared sets were amazing. The seventies wardrobe was provided, make-up and hair were professionally created and a whole group of props from another time were sourced and presented. At times during the 4 hours, I was sure that I'd wandered onto a big-budget film set by mistake..

Aside from the staging, Artemis performed faultlessly as a model and always came up with a creative pose suitable for the theme / intention of the images, whether working on her own or with other models. I don't know how she does it, but she seems to be able to consistently deliver exactly the right mood. Looking forward to future events 😁!

Artemis staged one of my best photography experiences thus far, at the Hacienda Studio.

Our gracious host Sean invited various teams of Hacienda models to produce themed events, using the marvellous space which is available.

This weekends theme is the 70’s Penthouse Shoot, stage managed by Artemis Fauna with Carla Monaco, joined by Natasha Bella who was making her first Hacienda appearance.

Artemis is an old hand at putting on spectacular events and her skills in procuring props and giving the whole theme her personal touch, was truly exceptional. Moreover the shoot was choreographed to perfection, ensuring that my fellow tog and I were afforded the right time to rotate around the three models.

Our models need no introduction as they are all such beautiful consummate professionals as well as fabulous ladies with whom to while away a few hours.

Notwithstanding the amount that these events raise for charity, the whole experience was very memorable and my special thanks to a fabulous lady, Sarah Fauna.

Artemis doesn’t need another reference as her portfolio more than speaks for itself. However she has recently turned her hand to events management. I attended her 70’s themed event which she organised and staged at the Hacienda in London. She designed and made of all the sets by herself as well as providing all of the styling. Her attention to detail was second to none which included vintage and retro props which made the event so authentic. Not sure how she managed it but everything ran so smoothly. 100% recommended
