Lovely to see Peter again for a shoot with the lovely Kiera. All went well and Peter was his usual charming self. Glad to hear he's planning to come back, welcome anytime.

Peter booked me on my latest tour of London which was a relatively impromptu (for me) visit due to a separate gig popping up for the bank holiday weekend. But what a star Peter was: when I told him about my available dates it wasn't long before he had gotten back to me with his matched availability, looked into studios and messaged them to secure ourselves a shoot. It was quite honestly the most stress-free booking I could have hoped for: other models will agree that coordinating shoots and travel when working away in an area can be incredibly hectic with not just managing shoot times with different photographer bookings but also ensuring travel isn't going to be a problem, especially on a bank holiday relying on public transport. But none of this was remotely an issue because Peter kept me in the loop at all times with his communications to the studio and we got our fantastic half day secured ready for making some stunning images - Peter had given me perfect instructions on what to bring too which was considerably helpful because on any tour where I am not travelling by car I have to downsize my luggage considerably. Throughout the shoot we utilised lots of different outfits too so models can certainly expect to cover some gorgeous variety in the shoot sets when working with this gent. :)

Peter very kindly picked me up from Watford Junction station on the day of the shoot and drove us to the studio... he was polite and friendly from that moment, we got chattering straight away as Peter is such a social chap and values good rapports/a bit of banter but with largely encouraging vibes to get the best out of his shoots. I felt at ease and the pace once we arrived at the studio and got cracking was super laid-back with plenty of opportunities to review the pictures (always a fun part of a shoot!) and lots of tea to hand as well. Peter has a great passion for beauty and when we started smashing out the first few shots (portraits) I received no end of positive feedback from Peter who is more than happy for a model to go about their professional flow of poses, but will also notify when a killer pose appears so you can work around a moment that really works with the set. I like this balance of teamwork, in the case of any shoot; you are all there to try and get the best possible results and Peter seriously appreciates the work and effort models put into interpreting a set. The nice thing about shooting in a studio where at least one of you have worked at before is the knowledge of the backdrops/lighting setups... Origin Studios actually had some new sets available since the last time Peter visited so there were new and interesting challenges but Peter managed so well and took some lovely images of me. Capturing one of my favourite hair-flick shots to date! :D And most models will vouch how dizzy you can get repeating this head-swish to get the hair going. Didn't take us long to nail it at all! :D

I had a lovely shoot with Peter, he's got a good soul, is down to earth and tries his best to make a shoot fun as well as productive. I will certainly look forward to working together again on my next trip down to London and the new ideas we come up with next time. :)

Thank you Peter!

I had a lovely shoot with Peter today in Saracen Studios in Milton Keynes.

Pre-communications were excellent and the shoot itself went smoothly. The studio was lovely, the owner Andrew was there during the shoot to help out with the lighting set-ups. Peter was friendly and professional, overall a positive experience!

Recommend and hope to shoot sometime in the future :)

Today was my first shoot with Peter, and what a fab day!

Peter is a gentleman - very respectful, friendly and good fun. He has a cheeky sense of humour, which he forewarned me about :) His pre-comms were excellent, so I knew exactly what to bring, and he kindly picked me up from the station at Milton Keynes to take me to Saracen house.

So it was a bonus to find out that he is actually an excellent photographer to boot ;) Always checking that I'm happy and pleased with the results by showing me the images as we worked, giving good direction, whilst also asking for my ideas and input.

Thank you so much - I look forward to working with you again soon Peter!

I've just had a delightful shoot with Peter today at Saracen Studios.

He was such a joy to work with and gave superb direction which made the shoot flow easily. The ideas kept bouncing off each other and the banter didn't stop.

Peter showed previews of each shot and I am very impressed.

A very high recommendation from me.

Many thanks

I just had an amazing shoot with Banjoboy at Saracen House Studio. And time flew so quickly. He came to pick me from the station and also drop me off at the station at the end of the shoot. The whole time he was absolutely brilliant. He made sure I was ok at all time.I'm really pleased with those pics. He is such a pleasure to work with. And Im looking forward to working with him again.

And I highly highly recommend him to everyone.

Thanks a lot Banjoboy for a lovely shoot.

Best Wishes

What a fun shoot I had today with Peter!! We shot at saracens house for 4 hours and laughed the whole time.

Peter is a gent and really easy to get along with. He made sure the shoot was relaxed and that I was comfortable throughout. He's so easy going and we really got some great shots.

Would definitely recommend him and can't wait to work together again in the future :) Thank you xxx

Had a lovely shoot today with Peter at Saracen studios. Peter is a true gentleman at heart, with great banter and a real passion for photography, so we got on like a house on fire!

Throughout the shoot Peter showed me the images between each set and I was very impressed by what we achieved in a short amount of time.

I throughly enjoyed working with Peter, there were smiles and laughs all round and I look forward to working with him again soon!

Recommend to all models :)

What to say about the lovely Peter!!! We have worked together a handful of times over the years and he is a laugh-a-minute person- so warm, funny, and absolutely hilarious to shoot with! I consider Peter a friend- we always have such great, fun shoots and I always go away on a high and a smile on my face!

This time around we shot together at my home in Chippenham- Peter had kindly driven 1.5 hours to get to me. For a man of his age he is an inspiration- always on the go, with a great sense of humour and a real zest for life- he is also a real survivor! He loves taking portraits which is also one of my favourite genres. His cheeky sense of humour reminds me very much of Norman Wisdom- which is his nickname! He is a very cheeky character and always makes me smile. He is also great company and I enjoy talking to him- I prefer older company! :)

We took many gorgeous photos within the home and I loved the results. We also experiented with body oil (coconut oil) and water which gave lovely results. Peter was very respectful, kind and a blast to work with. Thankyou Peter- until the next time! Helen x

Second time shooting with Peter at his home, this time, where he was shooting for the first time and I must say that not only he has been delightful to work with but we've achieved some great visual outcomes too and I really had a pleasant time in his company.

A lovely gentleman that I would highly recommend, once more!

A bientôt, Peter xx

I worked with Peter for the first time last weekend for my studio day at Saracen House in Milton Keynes.

What a lovely guy he is, very easy to get along with and great fun to work with.

We got through a number of different sets, with Peter showing me the pics on back of camera after each set.

We got along great and the shoot just flew by.

Will look forward to working with Peter in the near future
