I had a great shoot with Steve at Hengrove. He was very creative and experimental and gave me some really cool shots which are different to what I have which i really appreciate. He was friendly and great with direction and feedback. Would recommend!

It was a while ago that I shot with Steve (I'm just rubbish at leaving references, sorry!) but the shoot was pretty memorable as it was such a wacky idea. His communication before the shoot was excellent which helped pull the idea together and make sure everyone was clear on the plan for the day. The photos turned out brilliantly and I'm looking forward to working with Steve again in the future :)

had a shoot with Steve today. He is a great photograph and lovely easy going person. He easily direct a model and same time you are absolutely free to make your own poses. Would highly recommend him , waiting for outcomes from today's shoot and looking forward to arrange another shoot with him :)

Having worked with Steve before, I jumped at the chance to be able to work with him again! I really enjoyed our previous two shoots I knew that this one was going to be just as fun to work on.

We managed to borrow one of my friend's husky dogs for the shoot, and we shot in Bute Park in Cardiff and on Caerphilly Mountain. Throughout the shoot, I felt very relaxed and comfortable, and conversation flowed easily. Steve is very easy to get on with and is full of great concepts and ideas.

If you haven't had the chance to work with Steve yet, I suggest you do something about it. Without doubt one of my most favourite photographers, and I look forward to working with him again!

I hope he will forgive my tardiness!

Had a wonderful shoot with Steve at the beginning of July, his communications were first class, he had a clear idea of what he wanted to shoot and we went to some amazing locations! We also had fun with a little freestyle stuff in the afternoon :-)

He (and his lovely wife!) are extremely polite, easy to get on with, and great fun :-D The results are terrific, and would highly recommend :-)

Apart from being an incredibly talented photographer who creates his beautiful and imaginative images with enthusiasm and precision, Steve is just an all-round decent guy! He made me feel very comfortable during the shoot, gave me pointers and directions when needed but allowed me to try things out by myself as well.

Steve works hard for his craft, he's got a definite idea of what he wants to capture but also has a knack for finding inspiration in the unexpected and capturing moments that were not anticipated.

We had a lot of fun on our Dartmoor shoot, and through our combined efforts I think me achieved some powerful images!

Thanks Steve, I'm really glad my first shoot through PurplePort was with you, you've given me some great advice and I really hope to work with you again in the future!

Steve is a nice relaxed guy to work with, him and his wife were welcoming and have a neat array of props and accessories for practically any shoot. I found working with him very enjoyable.

I worked with Steve today (06/05/12) and what an incredible experience it was. A true professional from start to finish, with a true creative vision. His pre-shoot communication is informative and professional; he gave me a clear idea of what we were aiming to achieve from the day. As well as being a incredible professionally, he was amazing fun to work with too. Highly recommend, and I really hope to work with again.
