I finally got to work with Brian after we didn't get to work together at a group shoot and am glad we got it booked.

Brian came to my home and arrived on time.

Brian is such a lovely guy and fun to work with and easy to get along with and makes you feel completely comfortable within seconds. We did alot of chatting during our shoot and some laughs. Before we knew it time had gone but shows what a great shoot we had. Brian is Very professional and knows what kind of images he wants. Brian has ideas of his own and is also happy to work with yours.

I would highly recommend Brian to any model and am definitely looking forward to working with Brian again in the future

Thank you Brian for a fun shoot can't wait to see the images.

Sooooo pleased that I get to cross paths with another photographer who has an idea of what I'm going to be like as a person....then they meet me in person :D

Communication with you was a breath of fresh air after reading my page and asking appropriate questions. There were no crossed wires and it was easy and straight forward to get the booking complete.

You arrived at my house, on time and ready to shoot.

After a little chat about what we wanted to achieve the shoot began. You can always tell when a photographer just has that good lense that makes models look amazing!!!!

The conversation throughout the shoot flowed easily and effortlessly. You were friendly, funny, chatty but remained completely professional at all times.

I don't have a negative thing to say and I would work with you again without hesitation.

Recommended To All :D

Great photography and super professional Gent' ...I'm amazed by the speed of quality output of his images taken at Chris Barral's farm project!...this Man's portfolio speaks volumes and he is consistent with great results! I watched him at work with numerous models and was impressed by his approach and stylish camera work! Team player and great job!

First time Brian has attended one of my events and hopefully not the last.

Brian signed up to attend my 'Day on The Farm' event on a 30-acre farm in Cheshire.

Pre shoot communication were excellent.

Supported a model to get to and from the event safely so making them able to attend too.

Arrived on time, kit ready and raring to go.

With 11 models and 9 photographers Brian had a tall order to work with them all but he gave it a good go.

The weather was devilish, but this did not dampen this photographers' spirits which were upbeat and enthusiastic throughout.

Good to have met you and hope to see you on another...dryer event soon.

It has actually been over 6 months since I last shot with Brian which doesn’t sound a lot but actually it is, as we seem to be in contact quite a lot. I was happy that he had booked onto an event that I was booked to model at - A Day On The Farm.

I was nervous that he wouldn’t enjoy himself - but I’m so glad he did. Phew. Although he did recognise a few models and not just me so that was good.

Not only did I get the chance to catch up with him for a good natter, we actually shot twice in the 6 hours we were there. Fantastic.

Nailed it!

I had a brief shoot with Brian at Chris Barral's latest networking event on the farm.

Despite the weather being against us all, it didn't stop anyone giving it their all and having an amazing day!

Brian was a pleasure to work with, and we got some great images; I only wish we had more shooting time!

I would happily work with him again and recommend him to others.

Thank you Brian :)

I had my fourth shoot with Brian on Thursday, when he booked me for a pinup shoot at Far Forest Studio.

Brian was welcoming and lovely company in the shoot, as always. He brought along some of my favourite cakes for me to take home with me, and it was lovely to catch up with a coffee in between sets. The four hours together flew by and, judging by the back of cams, we captured a variety of beautiful looks together. Brian hadn’t shot pinup before but he took to it like a duck to water, and I’m excited to see his results!

Brian was kind enough to bring along some outfits of his own (that he gifted to me after the shoot) that really added to the diversity of the shoot. They are beautiful dresses and they looked great on camera.

I’d recommend Brian to other models, and I hope to work with him again soon. Thanks so much Brian 😁

I had another great shoot with Brian in Libre studio in Liverpool.

We tried different backgrounds, outfits, a new prism and some other new lighting stuff which were very interesting to experience.

Also, Brian used his new brand camera for the first time and the images have been taken by it are amazing in quality.

I like the way how he always investigates and researches to improve his photography techniques, knowledge and skills and always shares them generously.

We created many lovely images again. Always is difficult to select between them as most are great.

Highly recommended.

Many thanks 🌺

And we finally meet again for another home studio shoot.

As always - pre-shoot communication - is spot on and he is patient with me if I sometimes get lost in translation, which can happen sometimes.

Brian arrived perfectly on time, we confirmed the ideas talked in emails, and off shooting, we went.

During the shoot, we experienced a few sassy lighting issues, but Brian fixed it in no time, and we were bouncing ideas to each other and time just flew.

The time flew so fast, I do not know how we did not end up shooting gel, but that would be a great reason for the next shoot which has been already discussed.

Highly recomended

Thank you so much, Brian, for delightful shoot and lots of smiles.

I thoroughly enjoyed our first shoot together. I was already comfortable with him before the shoot as the communication was very professional and no fuss. He is very relaxing to be around. It feels like I've known him for a while. Ofcourse he was on time and maintained professionalism throughout the shoot. I'm also impressed by the image on the back of the camera and looking forward to how they turn out. I would recommend him.

It was delightful to work with Brian again in Libre Studio.

Brian is always on time and well-equipped.

His enthusiasm for taking high-technique images helps to create better photos every time!

4 hours of fun shoot and I never felt tired or bored during the shoot.

We tried new lighting which

Worked very well.

It would be a great experience for any new or experienced model to work with BGA and highly recommend him to work.

Many thanks

I had another great shoot with Brian in Libre Studio in Liverpool.

He kindly drove a long way to come to a studio that is convenient for me to get there.

He arrived earlier and helped me to sort out the car park issues patiently. (Much appreciated again)

3 hours shoot went very fast and he took more than 500 hundred nice images.

Brian is very precise to adjust the lighting professionally and that's why images are always great.

Also, He always asks my idea about the outfits and backdrop colours which I appreciate.

Looking forward to our next shoot and highly recommend him to work with.

Many thanks!

It was a pleasure to work with Brian again last week when he booked a slot on my ‘bridal prep’ photography event at a beautiful Air BnB in Bridgnorth. The first two times we worked together were one-to-one shoots, but this time Brian was accompanied by his friend, and wedding photographer, Amy.

Shoots with a Brian are always very relaxed and productive, and Wednesday was no exception. Communication before the shoot was detailed and informative so we all knew exactly what to expect on the day. Brian was kind enough to pick Amy up and drive them both a considerable way to the property,

Together we shot a ‘getting ready set’ and a ‘bridal dress’ set using both the indoor and outdoor spaces. I’d bought another suitcase of alternative outfit options so we finished outdoors with a medieval dress for some variety.

Brian and Amy bounced ideas off of one another throughout the shoot and the morning was really creative. The shoot was also a lot of fun! Conversation flowed freely and we spent as much time chatting and laughing as we did shooting! Brian had also brought along a huge selection of cakes and a box of chocolates for me, knowing I’d be at the property all day, which was such a lovely gesture, and one I appreciate immensely.

I’d recommend Brian to other models and I’m looking forward to shooting with him again soon! Thanks for another lovely shoot Brian! 😁

Had a wonderful day with BGA images on a joint shoot with the lovely Miss Rosie Lea. Communication was great all the way through. Our brainstorming was enlightening. Sharing our techniques with each other opened my eyes and would love to try in my future projects.

We had fun all day and would love to collaborate again soon.

Many thanks for this experience.

It was a pleasure to have another great shoot with Brian in Pathway studio. Specifically, it was our last shoot there as the studio owner decided to retire from his lovely studio.

Brian booked me and the studio for 4 hours and as always he was generous in any way which I appreciated.

Times went very fast and we managed to take more than 600 images with 7 different looks and outfits.

He gave me all images the same day and I looked through them and am very pleased with the photos.

He was very precise and tried to take photos with the best lighting and technique.

Looking forward to our next shoots and recommend him to any new or experience models or studio to work with.

Many thanks

I had my second shoot with Brian yesterday and it was lovely to work with him again!

Brian booked me for a four hour shoot at Daniel’s Mill in Bridgnorth. As always, pre-comms we’re excellent and thorough. Brian left styling and outfits up to me so I bought a selection of looks that work well with the location.

We had a really lovely, productive shoot! Brian showed me back of cams as we shot and the images were beautiful… The edits I’ve seen since, even more so!

Brian made sure I was fed, watered and comfortable throughout the shoot and was kind enough to buy me refreshments for our coffee break at the Mill’s tearoom. A very kind gesture, and one very much appreciated by this cake-loving model.

Brian and I are in talks about another shoot in the near future and I’m looking forward to it already. Thanks for a lovely shoot Brian 😊

After a while, it was delightful to have a great shoot with Brian on a warm nice day on the beach.

He kindly drove a far way to the location I offered where convenient for me to come and he arrived before me as I expected.

As always, he made me comfortable choosing any outfits or colours which I preferred for the shoot.

We managed to take many nice photos and gave them all at the same time and I'm very pleased with the images.

Many thanks 🙂👍

Far Forest Studio

We were pleased to welcome Brian to our studio for his first visit and we hope it was the first of many more to come.

Excellent communication ahead of the booking and timely in his arrival.

He was a pleasure to have as a guest, very professional in his manner and a pleasure to talk to.

We are looking forward to seeing the results of the shoot.

Highly recommended to any model or studio.
