We were very pleased to welcome Brian and Pam to the studio.

It was a real pleasure to meet such a friendly enthusiastic and accomplished photographer.

Brian was lovely with the model Miss Rosie Lea and respectful of all the equipment.

We are looking forward to welcoming Brian back soon.

Another great shoot with BGA in Libre studio in Liverpool and always delightful to work with!

Brian is punctual, precise, and at the same time easygoing to work with, and generous.

He researched and attended some workshops about lighting techniques in portrait photography and that's why his photos would have been getting better and better, even I think he can have his workshop to teach what he knows to others!

I'm very happy to have had a chance to work with him and have created loads of fabulous images till now.

Looking forward to working with Brian again and highly recommended him to any model or studio.

Many thanks !

The Apex Studio (Telford)

Brian recently booked Apex Studio working with Rosie Lea Model.

He arrived on time pre comms were great.

Brian is an experienced photographer & took some great shots of Rosie. He was also kind enough to allow me to take a couple of shots whilst Rosie was at the studio.

We got along very well & had a great chat & I have no hesitation in recommending him to any model or studio.

Hopefully see you again soon.

Miss Rosie Lea

I’ve worked with Brian a number of times now, and each shoot has been a lovely experience. Our most recent shoot, when Brian booked me for a few hours at Apex Studio, was no exception.

As always Brian was great company, and the four hours just flew by. We shot some Old Hollywood looks, with a variety of outfits, and got some great images judging by the back of cams.

Brian was also kind enough to drive me to the studio and back, which is something I really appreciate!

I’ve seen a few final images from the shoot and, as always, they are beautiful!

I’d recommend Brian to other models and I look forward to working with him again next week! Thanks so much Brian 😊

Was pleased to shoot with Brian finally on one-to-one bases - it has been a while.

As always Brian arrived prepared, also his ideas were invented. Th time flew by way too quickly.

It is always a pleasure to work with Brian, he s one of the most reliable photographers, and he will share his ideas. Brian has quickly become one of BlackSwann Studio's main guidance assistants - his knowledge and happiness to share it has helped me a lot in building my own studio.

He is thoughtful, experienced photographed, and highly recommended to both new and experienced models in the business.

Had the pleasure of shooting with Brian for the second time at a recent charity shoot.

As usual he came well prepared. He was very easy to work with and we created some brilliant images together.

Brian is a lovely man and great photographer. I will highly recommend him to everyone. I look forward to working with him again.

Highly recommended this was my second shoot with Brian and as delightful and fun as our first shoot. The shoot always goes by too quickly because of the great banter but we still got some amazing shots. Thanks again Brian x

Brian was the 1st to sign up for the charity event @ Greenheys Farm.

Supported a model to attend by providing a lift there and back home again.

Brought an abundant bag of pastries, cakes and chocolate buns for all attendees to share...I could stop this reference here quite happily :-) You can see Brian's quality....but I will go on...

Brian arrived on time, good pre event communications.

Got stuck in, worked with all models present plus duos, trio's.

Steady under pressure when experiencing technical issues with kit.

Brian fit's right in within group events.

I look forward to seeing Brian on many more to come.

Highly Recommended.

It was a pleasure to work with Brian in Liverpool at Libre Studio again. As we've had many shoots, we know the style would like to focus on and shoots go very smoothly and time always flies away.

BGA is a punctual, precise, easygoing, thoughtful, and experienced photographer.

We tried different styles, equipment, and lighting that were different from our previous shoots.

The images are fabulous as I expected.

Looking forward to our next shoot and highly recommend BGA to models.

Many thanks

Another successful Tuesday Club and Brian was first and foremost in signing up.

Arrived on time, enthusiastic as always and ready to get started.

Not a moments unhappiness when our second model did not arrive but positive vibes which ensured this Tuesday Club was another success.

Brian also knows his 'onions' when it comes to the technical side of photography and I can honestly say I have learnt from him on each Tuesday Club.

Works well with BlackSwann our resident Tuesday Club model and the results look fab.

If you have the opportunity to work with this accomplished photographer take it.

Highly Recommended.

It was delightful to have a Xmas shoot with BGA in Libre Studio. Everything went well as a team work for a Xmas theme!

Brian brought some Xmas outfits and accessories, the studio (John) had a nice Xmas green backdrop and sleigh too and I did a Xmas make-up and got some outfits and accessories.

We managed to take a bunch of lovely seasonal photos and I'm very happy with the images.

Brian was in studio before me and on time and we took more than 400 great photos.

I think any model who worked with him knows how generous he is and no need to explain again.

Highly recommend BGA to work with any experienced or new model.

Many thanks for everything!

We had another great studio shoot together in Libre studio in Liverpool.

I appreciate that Brian drove on one of the coldest frosty days to Liverpool and got to the studio earlier than me and on time.

As always very generous and easygoing to work with.

He gave me all images the same day and I love loads of them.

If you book with him you could be sure that you wouldn't have a late cancellation and will get all the lovely images the same day.

Highly recommended and looking forward to our next shoot.

Many thanks!

I had my second shoot with Brian and again it was another fun and relaxed shoot.

Brian firstly is such a gentleman he's so polite and kind. Always smiling and has a funny sense of humour. Also makes me feel completely comfortable and always makes sure am ok comfortable with what am doing.

Brian also has his own ideas aswell as yours to help create a great image. Can't wait to see the images.

I would highly recommend Brian to any model and I hope we get to work together again in the future.

Thanks Brian.

And here we met again!

To be fairly honest, I have lost count of how many times I have worked with Brian, but it is always an interesting process. You see, Brian enjoys the process as well as the end results - he likes to experiment with angles, and above all, he wants to see your eyes - I somehow tend to cover them after 5 poses. At all times you know what has been taken, he looks out for your comfort and will never ask you to smth he would not be comfortable doing.

Patient, with a wicked sense of humor, he has quickly become a reliable friend of mine and comes across as a gentleman.

Highly recommended - if you get a chance to work with Brian - grab it - he really loves what he is doing and you will feel it in the pictures.

Brian signed up to attend my first Tuesday Club event, I knew it was going to be quality as soon as he did.

Brian arrives on time, well equipped and ready to make his magic.

Brian worked with 3 models and alongside 3 photographers on a 6-hour event.

I know already that the images produced are quality and I cannot wait to see them posted.

Brian works well within a group, plus is able and willing to pass on practical knowledge and skills.

I for one benefited from this coaching.

If you get the chance to work with this photographer, please don't pass it up.

Grab it with both hands.

Highly Recommended.

I had another shoot with Brian (having more shooting time on this occasion!) at one of Chris Barral's new events, with whom I rotated shooting alongside the amazing model BlackSwan.

Brian was great to work with, and we definitely got some brilliant images. We've already discussed working together again in future!

I look forward to working with him again and recommend him to others.

Thank you Brian!

Brian is a brilliant photographer and a lovely gentleman. He took my ideas onboard and included his own creative input to help me, great advice, and just an overall fabulous photographer to work with! :-)

Johnty

I met up with Brian at Chris Barral's Tuesday Club event and we pretty soon got to work choosing backgrounds and outfits for our models while Chris was brewing up. I'm of the same generation as Brian and we hit it off from the start working together and chatting about photography in the breaks. All in all a great time made all the more pleasant with Brian's chat and help. Recommended.

It was delightful to have another fantastic shoot with BGA.

As I'm busy at work and the course these days, my time is very limited to book a shoot! But Brian kindly was flexible with my few availabilities and fortunately, we could find a local studio to work in Liverpool.

He was there before me and pre-communication was excellent as always.

Brian brought 3 new brand outfits to try in our shoot and sent me their images that gave me a clue to bring and match some accessories and shoes with them.

He took more than 500 images and gave me all in an sd card the same day. When I looked through the images at home, was very difficult to find a favourite to post on PP because he took many great photos.

Looking forward to create more images and highly recommend him!

Many thanks

Welcomed Brian to our studio last week for a shoot. He's super professional, has loads of good ideas and comes prepared with great photographing knowledge.

Pre-comms were great and it was lovely getting to meet Brian in person, absolutely welcome anytime
