WOW...where to start...hmmm...Ok, so I made this poor man jump over barbed wire and I am so glad I did as we had such an amazing shoot thereafter hehe...Nick is a very talented photographer...I have never known the light to change so often but Nick kept adjusting and getting some really really really stunning shots...I kept bouncing off of Nick's enthusiasm...Nick is a true gentleman carrying my bag at all times and passing me my shoes...Nick is an excellent photographer getting some really awesome angles...Nick knew within a few minutes what works well for me as a model...Nick is a good laugh but also remains professional, brilliant company, caring, considerate and has a really really good sense of humour...

Would I recommend Nick....DEFINITELY...

Thank you Nick for a brilliant afternoon and making Sparkles smile...

Ahhh, it was so lovely to work with B17fan on a 1-2-1 shoot for the second time.. (he also attended one of mine & Simone's Lighting Outside The Box workshops at the Hacienda studio, London) and it was so nice of him to travel down to me in Angmering-On-Sea.

We worked a full day, splitting the time between retouch tuition and then after lunch a shoot around my locations.. private estate beach, and my garden hippie tent.

The weather and tide times couldn't have been more perfect for our shoot.. it is always such a pleasure to work with this guy.. he is such a laugh too and great company, which makes the experience so much nicer!

He travelled down in his amazing Willys jeep.. never seen anything like it, but looked soooo cool - naturally we used it for one of the sets.

This photographer has an extraordinary understanding of light, and it has been such a pleasure to watch him grow and progress over the years - makes me so happy! He is so passionate about what he creates and it really shows :)

Thank you for another great day, and hope to see you again soon! Highly recommended!

Enjoyed a super duper shoot with the very lovely Nick yesterday. What a nice chap he is. I had a feeling we would get on from our pre coms. Nick is funny, but also really kind and lovely. Beforehand he was just so nice, checking I was happy with this ideas and always being clear and totally respectful of my wishes.

He was exactly the same face to face. He kept saying a happy model is a happy shoot; such a lovely philosophy. I've always loved his work and I'm not surprised he takes great pictures - he's talented as well as a really lovely person.

I would not hesitate to recommend Nick and really really hope he'll make his way over my way again some time.

Thank you Nick

I had a wonderful shoot with Nick during my stay in London! We have been speaking about shooting for a long while now and just never got our timings together!

However this time it all just clicked into place!... Perfect comms even on the day!

The shoot was awesome, we shot at my location and boy did we take some fantastic shots! (I will be doing a share shoot!)....

I found Nick to be really lovely to shoot with; chatty, friendly, creative and had lots of ideas.... we also had a good giggle throughout which is definitely something you want on a shoot!...

We worked well together feeding off ideas and suggestions and got some stunning images!... I was comfortable throughout the shoot, which may I add happened to fly by!...

I would certainly recommend Nick, he's a talented photographer and very genuine person...

Hope there will be another time in the future where we can get to shoot again!....

Thanks again Nick!

I had a fantastic shoot with Nick at my home (which is rather challenging!)

From the get go Nick was friendly, chatty and made me feel at ease. Despite my house being quite difficult to shoot at, Nick did incredibly well! He had some fantastic ideas and was also happy to work together with some of my suggestions too.

He was also incredibly understanding of my new puppy needing to be checked on - it was rather an eventful morning!

Nick was respectful and fully respected levels etc. I thoroughly enjoyed shooting with him and absolutely loved what we managed to achieve!

The shoot flew by which is always a good sign. Nick was a true gent and a really lovely guy.

I’d happily work with him again and would absolutely recommend!

Thanks again :)

Enjoyed a second duo shoot with nick today at the barn with Marla :-) Another fun, productive and successful shoot with stunning images. Nick is one of the nicest,professional and genuine photographers that I have had the pleasure of shooting with. He always makes sure we are comfortable through out the shoot and is happy for us to work on a collaboration basis to create all different styles of shots. Today he even kindly bought is a little gift for easter and let us run through the images at the end of the shoot which we are all thrilled with, we created a lot of stunning images today and of a mixture of genres. I highly recommend Nick to all models and I do hope that we can shoot again in the future

I had the absolute pleasure of spending the day with Nick yesterday in London. We spent the first half at the stunning Hacienda, and then headed out for some street fashion for the latter half of the day. Nick is one of the most genuine, considerate and caring photographers I have had the chance to meet - the shoot was collaborative and laid-back but we got through loads of different sets and created some beautiful images. Nick has a great eye for composition and lighting whilst being modest and aware of the areas that need improving (which are few!). We regularly stopped for a break and to review the images which really helps to produce the best results, in my opinion. I absolutely can't recommend Nick enough and would be delighted to work with him again.

I had the pleasure of meeting and working Nick at the barn today as he had booked Marla and myself for a duo shoot. From the minute Nick arrived he was full of smiles with a positive attitude, he was professional and with the three of us collaborating together we created a comfortable and productive working atmosphere and he was happy leaving us to pose freely.

The images look stunning in the laptop and I do look forward to seeing the final result.

A very professional photographer and very down to earth and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Nick to all models both amateur and professional and I do hope that we can shoot together again in the near future if I tour to the south again.

Ah.. I wish I could shoot with Nick every week!! He's one of the nicest photographer I've met! He's genuine, such a gentleman, and always has a smile on his face! You've got to love being around such positive people :)

Nick booked me and CherP at our duo day at the barn in West Sussex, he was our first shoot of the day, starting at 9am, and what a fabulous way to start the day!

We shot some fashion gone quickly erotic lol We also did some adult, and Nick was 100% respectful and professional at all time, this is of course very important especially when shooting higher levels. I felt totally comfortable at all time.

Nick has a creative eye, he shoots in different angles, moves around you, shows you what he's getting from the back of the camera (which I find very helpful), but he's also completely opened to hear your own ideas and suggestions. He's just happy to try anything and I think we got some really cool shots from the day. One of my favorite image from the day is already posted on my port and it will stay on it for quite some time! Cher has also decided to print it as a canvas for her living room! :) :)

Would I recommend Nick? what do you think... of course I do! Please come back to the barn soon Nick and thank you for such an enjoyable shoot!

I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Nick for the first time today... what a superstar.

Such a lovely person to shoot with... friendly, kind, considerate, a good conversationalist and generally just a pleasure to work with. We spent some time shooting natural light indoors followed by a quick half hour outside by the Thames as the sun started to disappear below the horizon. We managed to capture some beautiful images and Im very much looking forward to seeing the edits.

Thanks for a fab afternoon and very highly recommended by me :)

I was absolutley flattered to be asked by Nick to show him my editing process this week. I'm always surprised when people who clearly already have a good skill level think I can show them anything!

I've met Nick before so already knew what a genuine and friendly bloke he is.

During the session itself he was attentive and asked some great questions and really I couldn't have asked for a better bloke to sit down with for a few hours. In fact it felt more like two mates sitting having a chat than anything too strenuous!

I love Nicks photography and hopefully he can continue to enhance it!

Great bloke, highly recommended!

I had the absolute pleasure of shooting with Nick recently at a hotel in London!

Firstly, pre comms were fabulous! Quick, to the point and extremely respectful! In fact, perhaps some of the best comms ever ! He was just lovely!

Nick arrived on time, and even though the room was not the room we had initially planned the shoot for Nick still took on the challenge! He is a very friendly guy who I felt instantly comfortable with!

He very kindly went out of his way and brought me some snacks which were gratefully received!

The actual shoot was great fun! We tried lots of different things to see what we could make work with the room! Nick has a great eye and made some really great compositions! He listened to any suggestions I had and I even encouraged him to try some bodyscapes for the first time which Nick instantly got and took some really wonderful shots! (I'm not sure I believe they were his first bodyscapes, far too good haha - I joke)

Nick made lots of his own fabulous suggestions and the 4 hours seemed to fly by! It was a really enjoyable morning! I very much enjoyed Nick's company and conversation!

To top off such a brilliant shoot nick was SO KIND and helped with my suitcase from Stratford all the way to kings cross!! If only every photographer was so helpful!!

Nick is one of a kind! A lovely gentleman / made me laugh lots and took fab inGes! I hope we get to shoot again! Highly recconended by me!

I had a wonderful afternoon shooting with Nick, at Hammerwood. Pre-communication was spot on; sharing concepts, ideas and pictures beforehand, and explaining shots he would like to produce. He not only drove an army jeep to the mansion, he also brought original props/outfits and paper cuttings from WW2. It was an absolute pleasure working with Nick, and the time flew by! Thank you for the giggles, fun and joy.

Nick came to shoot with Gem at our island location. Nick is a very friendly guy and respectful too. Nick had a big grin on his face when he came back from touring and shooting around the island, so I think he enjoyed the experience. Hope to see you again Nick.

Had a slightly impromptu photo shoot with Nick this evening, and it was a real pleasure to meet him. He seemed very friendly and genuine, and it looked like he got some great photos - I can't wait to see them! Thank you Nick!

Nick & I have been planning to shoot together for the better part of a few months! He's such a lovely man with an excellent eye for photography. He's a natural! We worked through around 15 sets in an 8 hour shoot- think we scored port-worthy looks all day! We shot from implied nude to shibari to fashion - what a versatile photographer. He beautifully uses natural light. He picked out some fantastic locations in London. We chatted and laughed all day- what a true gentleman & professional. If you have not shot with him - definitely book in. He's wonderful to work with, gives excellent feedback and takes creative input from the models. Very highly recommend & hope to shoot with him in the future!

I had the pleasure of working with Nick on a lighting workshop hosted by Jimmy Deas as part of my southern tour.

Nick is super friendly and incredibly enthusiastic about photography. He was respectful and conveyed his ideas to enable me to pose for the shots he wanted.

Communications were spot on, we had a very productive 4 hours and I'm very pleased with the end results.

I would happily recommend Nick to fellow models and would love to work with him again in the future.

Had a lovely shoot with Nick and Zara over the weekend. I am not sure anyone would have known we had not worked together before-we hit it off from the start! Nick is open to ideas, collaborations and styles-giving myself and Zara freedom to discuss what we think may suit the setting and themes we were all working on. Nick is chatty, genuine and way better at photography than he says he is!!! He has a great way of working with natural light and I can not wait to work with him again. Thank you ever so much!! :) :) :) xx

Zara Watson

Had an amazing shoot today with Nick and AmberM. None of us had worked together before and instantly we all got on like a house on fire. Nick is very easy to work with, he is friendly, relaxed and absolutely lovely. It was a brilliant shoot and I thoroughly enjoyed it and Nick's company. I loved the images Nick took, he is a great photographer and is far too modest about his knowledge & skills :) We had such a fun shoot and a lot of laughs. Thank you so much for such a brilliant shoot. Highly recommended. Zara :)
