The first shoot Artemis and I had was in 2014. Today was the second. In those four years, this is what I I’ve learned about this wonderful human ‘bean’...

Artemis was superb in 2014... Beautiful, professional, accommodating, and totally lovely.

In 2018 she’s proved to have ‘aged’ like a rare, fine wine... More beautiful, more pro... A fantastically accomplished model.

Her Malmesbury locations are also ‘en-pointe’. If these were London, they’d be billed at £700+ per day, without the attendant A1+ Uber-model.

If some cruel, malevolent Photo-God decreed I could only ever shoot with one model; I’d choose Artemis.

Her self-awareness and self-visualisation ... aka, light/brain/body control, is so spot-on.

So yeah, maybe you should book Artemis Fauna... She’ll undoubtedly help to raise your photo-game, and likely collaborate to create some of the finest photographs in your portfolio.

...that is all...

Had my first shoot with Artemis earlier today and the only problem was that it had to end.

We'd discussed a winter fashion themed shoot at the garden location she has access to and, after a quick tour of suitable areas, we started shooting. Artemis is just a natural at this and flowed through poses and changes seamlessly. Professional, friendly, knowledgeable, extremely hard working and a genuine, lovely person; it's obvious that she loves her job and she really is at the top of her game. I cannot add anything to what has already been written about her other than to say "Thank you" for today and that I am looking forward to working with her again at the earliest opportunity.

1000% recommended.

This was my 3rd shoot with Artemis, and incidentally the first time I've ever booked any model for a third time. It hard to sum-up just how capable, professional, versatile and amenable, she is, but perhaps this first third booking goes a little way to explaining this. She's quite exceptional - a 'model' model - and I cannot imagine how working with her would fail to do anything but help elevate a photographer's game, no matter how little or much experience they have. Thank you (once again) Artemis.

You don’t really need to know much when someone already has 1342 positive references and there isn’t anything more or new to say, but today I finally took the plunge and had my first shoot with Artemis. It was a duo shoot with her and Em Theresa (and a sneaky quick trio too :) )...and it was flipping superb from start to finish. Artemis was pure quality and really knows her photography shiznitz too...between them, they nailed every set and I am ecstatic with the results. Wicked work ethic, cracking person and a phenomenal shape maker...will definitely be working with Artemis again if she’ll let me....she’s the boss!

Em Theresa

I once again had the pleasure of working duo with Artemis for another art nude/aerial hoop duo workshop at Natural Light Spaces. As the first time Artemis nailed the poses super quick in our (only!) 1-2 hour rehearsal beforehand which really is quite a skill :) the sold out workshop went really well and all attendees got super shots, really could not have asked for any more effort and dedication from Artemis. The day after we had a half-day duo model day which sold to a single lovely photographer, and that went extremely well too. I really enjoy working with Artemis, she's exceptionally talented and also a lovely person too. Obviously another recommendation from me! :)

A well deserved 1350+ reference! Artemis Fauna is just simply fantastic. What more can you ask for a model? It’s super easy to build rapport with her, she is athletic (she can mimic difficult aerial poses with ease) She is fantastic at creating shapes! She can pose with and without direction.

I hope to work with Miss Fauna again sometime in the future! I recommend anyone to work with her if you get the chance! You will not regret it! Thanks for a fun shoot!

Theres a good reason Artemis has over 1300 positive references and zero negatives.....she's a bloody good model! We didn't really get to chat much as we were both busy but when we did she was a really nice, pleasant girl to speak to. There were times I was watching her working and my mouth was just agog (yes it's a real word!). Its a real treat to watch someone at the very top of their game plying their trade. Anyway, I got some fantastic shots both on digital and on 35mm film of which I'm immensely proud. Hopefully in the near future I can work 1-21 with her.

Well!!! She's done it again. Just returned from my 4th trip with Artemis and IainT on yet another of their luxury photographic holidays. The first trip was amazing but subsequent trips seem to get better and better. I don't know how she does it. (Yes I do, dedication and a lot of hard work.) These events have really become the highlight of the year. Great places, great food, great company and lots of great images. I've made some very good friends during the trips and I'm already looking forward to the next one. I believe there are still some places available. Don't let the chance go, these trips really are the business. Ivory flame was the second model whilst I was there and she was also a dream to work with.

I also managed a 1/1 with Artemis earlier in the year at IainT's place in Portugal. Run in a similar style to the full luxury trips this was a great experience as well and is well recommended.

Thanks Artemis for a brilliant week. You're the greatest!!!!

What can I write that has not already been said, about working with Artemis.

We did a shoot at her place and did multiple styles from fashion to body scapes.

She is a really nice person to work with. and knows how to get the best possible results together.

I would definitely recommend her and would work with her again if I have the change.

It was a total pleasure and one of the highlights of my year to model for Artemis Fauna's incredible, all-inclusive, luxury photographic holiday in Portugal this October!

I enjoyed an AMAZING week of shoots, spanning an awesome spectrum of styles, locations and moods. The photographers were in for a treat and I was often pretty damn jealous that I wasn't on the other side of the camera too - because the opportunities were so diverse and exciting, the weather and light were phenomenal, and the themes Artemis had put together were stunning :-D As a model I was thrilled with the creative challenges and variation, making it so engaging and rewarding for all.

Considering there was a pool and beautiful lounge areas to un-wind in our down time, it was kinda hilarious we spent much of that stealing the photographer's camera to look through and share sneak peeks... the images being created by everyone were just SO spectacular, we couldn't help ourselves!! :-P

Breakfast, lunch and dinner, brilliantly prepared by Iain, were a treat every time, and it was a joy to spend time with the whole group and share stories and laughs over food, wine and wonderful surroundings.

What a truly fantastic experience Artemis has created for her photographers!! The time and energy involved, in planning and organising every last detail of these events, months in advance, is immense and I applaud the extreme dedicated and hard work of her and Iain.

I did get to take a few images of Artemis on the last day too and am so pleased with them! Her polished skill, attention to detail and epic versatility, together with her artful passion, drive and fun personality are such a winning combination and the reason why she is so highly valued and celebrated by all that work with her! A DIAMOND!

You always know that there are going to be interesting sessions when you go on an Artemis luxury photographic holiday. Our last trip in October was no exception! There were several different sets of opportunities each day but her highlight this time was horses and the models riding them. Lovely unusual look. Other striking sets were the golden goddesses and some very unusual clay looks. You also know that Artemis will have sets that will challenge you and get you out of your comfort zone and this is a great way to learn new things.

The villa had lots of interesting spots and the food and hospitality from IainT and Artemis was wonderful as usual.

These trips have a mix of fashion, art nude and sheer inventiveness that is always a delight and we are looking forward to visiting Italy with Artemis next year.

If you are thinking of investing in a Luxury Photographic Holiday look no further than one organised by Artemis and Iain T

This Young Lady just continues to astound and deliver in awesome bucketfuls with whatever she turns her hand to :-)

Had the privilege to attend An All Inclusive Photography Holiday in the Portuguese Algarve organised by Artemis with Iain T and ably supported by Ayla on the modelling front

What an awesome and organised trip this was, but why be surprised with such an awesome, experienced and superb team in place to organise things to the nth degree, with pre scouted locations, superb shot plans, themed shoots, fantastic catering, Villa door to location transport

Iain T as Chauffeur, Head Chef and general helper, serving up amazing meals time after time

Artemis and Iain T with organisers hats on pre scouted outstanding locations, all programmed to perfection in a calm controlled and relaxed manner, giving great down time between shoots to chill out and socialise

Artemis and Ayla with model hats on, modelling their hearts out, delivering superb poses in sometimes challenging and difficult locations, never losing their sense of fun and humour

Locations and themes abounded from: abandoned villas, sandy beach, sunset shoots, sunrise shoots, underwater pool shoot, Latex Ladies around the villa, night shoot around the villa, 60s themed shoot to name but a few, all superbly coordinated and planned by Artemis

Oh have I mentioned the constant supply of superb quality food served up by master chef Iain T, and door to location and back again luxury people carrier supplied by this superb gentleman

Oh and the Huge Modern Villa, large common areas, separate ensuite accommodation, infinity pool and room to patio to pool access.

A Huge thank you to Sarah and Team for delivering a blistering superb 7 day holiday that never failed to please and left me superbly relaxed and smiling

Thank You Artemis, Iain T and not to forget Ayla for being the brilliant and professional team that delivered an unforgettable Luxury Photography holiday, from the Start to the final farewell

The whole team are recommended without hesitation if you see a photography holiday organised by Artemis and Iain T, you can be guaranteed a great, professional and fun filled time

Many Thanks Artemis and Iain for an outstanding Holiday in Sunny Portugal

:-) Gary :-)

Mr Dave

I have just returned from yet another of Artemis's luxury trips abroad ...

What can I say that hasn't already been said, a very enjoyable time whilst there and bringing back loads of great images as a memory of the stunning locations and themed shoots ...

I have been fortunate to be on a number of these trips and have made many friends with the other photographers, and been labelled one of the 'bad boys' for the antics that we get up to ...

It is probably no surprise that I have already booked my next trip for early next year...

Thanks again to Artemis and Iain for their organisation and to Ayla who was the other model on this occasion ...

I have known Artemis Fauna since 2014 when I organized a shoot in Tuscany in which she modeled. She was great then and very easy to work with. So, when she asked if I would like to participate in her Luxury Photo Excursion in Portugal, I didn’t hesitate to say yes. And am I so glad I did! Artemis and Ayla Rose are great models with no end of energy. IainT took on the role of logistical support which included preparing all of our delicious meals, pouring drinks and shuttling us around in the comfortable van that she and Artemis organized.

But what I hadn’t expected was how great a job she did scouting locations and planning special motifs. I won’t enumerate them because those ideas are as much intellectual property as are the photos we took. But in three full days of photography I had so many great images in so many different spectacular settings. Artemis is a fixer and producer of extreme talent.

So I am booked in and looking forward to attending one of her 2019 Luxury Photo Excursions in Tuscany. If you decide to participate, you will not be disappointed.

I have just returned from another Artemis photographic adventure – my second – and what an adventure it was! You really would need the Observer Book of Superlatives to describe it fully.

The whole affair not only lived up to expectations but exceeded them by a fair margin!

The accommodation was superb – a very modern villa with acres of glass, tonnes of natural light and a commanding view over the surrounding countryside. Just the thing to survey whilst waxing lyrical over a G&T, or indeed consuming one of Iain’s excellent suppers.

Shoots were planned to get the best of the light and provide a full but unhurried schedule both around the villa and at several carefully scouted locations in the area, and as ever we were chauffeured around by the tireless Iain T, who also organised supply chain logistics and magnificent catering.

Artemis and Ayla, of course, did what they do best, which is adding quite a large dash of beauty and elegance to the proceedings, whether dangling upside down from a tree or rock, or simply hanging around on a street corner looking nonchalantly sixties!

A splendid week I’ll never forget, so thanks, Artemis, Ayla & Iain. I’m looking forward to my next Artemis adventure already!

A few days ago I returned from the Algarve after my first experience of Artemis's 'Luxury All-Inclusive Photographic Trips'.

Doubt I can say more than already has been said. But it was a fantastic few days. Great accommodation, modern with lots of clean lines, presenting lots of potential - almost a little daunting on the first morning knowing where to start - but Artemis presented some great ideas.

Both before and throughout the trip Artemis worked tirelessly, meticulous planning, communication, styling / planning the next shoot / set, looking after attending photographers - not forgetting time in front of the camera - I'm not sure she had any time to herself.

I've returned with great memories and a good number of images to be added to the 'to-be-edited' pile.

Also a big thankyou to agreeing to the unscheduled additional early morning shoot.

Thanks must also go to the second model Ayla. Not forgetting Iain for being an excellent co-host, driver, cook, technical advisor.

Together Artemis and Ayla pushed me to create some great images - let's hope I can deliver.

My only complaint - 3 days wasn't long enough.

Thanks for the invite, and hope to attend further trips going forward

It's one thing to admire someone's work for its quality and variety - it's quite another to make the leap of courage to actually work with that person. When the day finally came I had more than my share of nerves and trepidation- would my lack of experience let me down?

I needn't have worried because Artemis is the ultimate professional, full of encouragement and creative ideas and thoroughly enjoyable company.. I'd booked a shoot at her lovely home with some time at the Secret Garden. We'd planned a variety of scenarios and just about managed to cover them all off, despite time seeming to run away with us, we were having so much fun. I'm delighted with the images we produced and can't wait to share them with Artemis.

I would work with Artemis again in a heartbeat - indeed I think that if my budget could stretch far enough that I might just have found my muse.

Thank you Artemis for a fun and productive shoot and I hope that we can work together again in the not too distant future.

I was so pleased that circumstances allowed me to attend the final "Secret Garden" shoot of 2018. Artemis has clearly worked hard to secure exclusive access to this exceptional location that should certainly be on the wish list of every photographer. Having worked with Artemis several times in the past, I had no hesitation in booking a place. Organising a group shoot like this must be tremendously complicated but Artemis was absolutely on top of this and everyone found the place without issue.

A mix of solo and duo sets as we explored the opportunities available were executed so beautifully and only the fading light could bring an end to the creativity such an outstanding model brings to a shoot.

Thank you so much for arranging this tremendous event and I hope we can do it all again very soon.

I was really pleased to be able to attend Artemis' final Secret Garden event of the year last week. Over the last few years I have shot with Artemis a number of times (so many I'm losing count now!) and with each shoot I get something different from this mercurial model. As well as being the most versatile, creative and beautiful model I've worked with Artemis also excels at organisation and communication and is a pleasure to work with.

Thank you Artemis and we will definitely have to do this again ... somewhere warmer for sure! :-)

Terry V

I was lucky enough to book on Artemis's last "Secret Garden" shoot for this year. Lucky we were because it didn't rain, it was a group of very laid-back easy-going photographers and of course two fabulous models. Well done, girl, you sure know how to deliver shoots that satisfy us photographers. Looking forward to Portugal where I'm sure you'll challenge us to get out of our comfort zones once again.

By now it should go without saying that Artemis is highly recommended by me.
