I have worked with Bryan for a multiple of shoots, and has become a go-to photographer for me. Incredibly friendly and laid back, open to trying new things and great with giving direction to those who are new to modelling. Now, I consider him to be a good friend of mine. I cannot recommend him enough, you would be silly not to want to work with him.

I always look forward to working with Bryan again.

Thank you so much xx

Bryan applied to a last minute casting of mine. We went into the shoot with no real plan in place but Bryan whipped up a quick Pinterest board and we were soon on our way.

We shot portraits and fashion in his amazing studio. The studio itself is packed with cool clothes and stuff, and has so much natural light. It was surprisingly warm for this time of year and had a fab dressing table/changing area. The one thing I found super refreshing about Bryan was his honesty, I liked that he mentioned when a pose was unflattering as most people would happily plod along and say nothing, but Bryan really cares about getting that perfect shot and I think that's why we worked well together. He's also good company and very chatty which made the shoot fly by.

I'd 100% recommend Bryan and would happily work with him again.

Thanks for a fab shoot :)

Bryan is awesome! Just when I think I've seen all the cool photography and artistic tricks around, somebody comes along with an entirely new vision and way of working, and that was Bryan!

He's super lovely and very mindful of my comfort, and we soon found we had a lot in common creatively, which meant the shoot flowed very well indeed with several music breaks and lots of chat and laughter. By the time I had to go, we were already planning our next shoot. I highly recommend Bryan and cannot wait to work together again. :D

Bryan had booked me whilst travelling through Weedon bec.

On first arrival he directed us to his studio, when I say studio I mean a huge outstanding location, with Ivy flowing down old windows.Natural light everywhere also with a studio with slot of amazing props. With a wide selection of clothing.

Bryan takes his time getting his lighting set up, given you lots of breaks in between. A nice natural relaxing shoot, producing lovely images throughout.

After the shoot he invites me n my partner for a cup of coffee and a look around this wonderful area,full of culture.

He also provides us with lunch for our travel back.

I then had forgot my suitcase which was left at the studio, he kindly travels 30mile to drop it off, if that's not the loveliest gesture I don't know what is.

His hospitality and professionalm as a photographer is just rare.

Thank you very much Bryan,

Recommend Highly,

Darling

Had a shoot with Bryan at his own studios,and was very impressed with the whole set up He was kind enough to arrange a Mua too for the shoot, On arrival was given a tour of the studio, and then offered refreshments... Had lots of fun with Bryan trying out different ideas , think we finally managed to get the shot in the end that we was looking for ..Will definitely work with Bryan again it was a lot of fun and he does make you feel at ease through out the shoot. I certainly would recommend him to any other model.

I really enjoy working with Bryan. He's always considerate and ensures that everything is planned as well as possible. I had a clear idea of the look and thank you for your patience with my timing issues while I worked on this. I already know the quality of Bryan's work and totally recommend him.

Had such a fun shoot with Bryan the other day.

Communication running up to the shoot and during was really good and I found him really easy going and fun to bounce ideas off of.

H was so kind as to give me a lift to and from the studio and provide some breakfast treats on the day.

I found Bryan had a knack of making me feel relaxed and was great at coming up with ideas of what to do during the day. His wide selection of outfits and props were fun to play about with and the whole experience was great.

Hoping to work with him again in he future :)

I worked with Bryan for the second time today, As before, he kindly gave me a lift to his studio and back as well as providing lunch/snacks. His pre-shoot comms were great and he had lots of great ideas to try and cool outfits to make use of it. His studio is a great place, with a great changing area in a lovely setting. He was professional at all times but is easy to get along with. The shoot flew by with lots of conversation. I highly recommend Bryan and hope to work with him again :)

So today I had one of the most enjoyable shoots I have ever had! Bryan made me feel incredibly comfortable and gave me freedom to chose clothing, positions and facial expressions! The day was nothing but professional, fun and outstandingly rewarding! And Bryan well, he is friendly, genuine and I completely trust him. He will treat you with the utter most respect but also he'll treat you like gold!

I hope to work with this super talented genius again in the future! And I highly recommend Bryan!

Thank you so much!

Had a great first shoot with Bryan today. Pre communications were great. We threw some ideas at each other and I knew what I was expecting when I got there. Liz, make up artist was there to do my hair and make up. What a lovely lady and she did an amazing job.

The shoot great fun and Bryan and myself got our creative juices flowing and came up with some awesome pictures. Bryan is open to try new ideas and work with with you.

The location of the studio is amazing. I felt honoured to be amongst so much history.

Would highly recommend Bryan

I really enjoyed meeting Bryan today and preparing model Charlie for their photoshoot. His photographic studio is amazing. The hair and makeup preparation area has great natural light, plenty of space, power points and surfaces to put kit (and I do have a lot!). Pre-shoot communications with Bryan were excellent so I had a clear idea of the look he wanted me to create from the shoot. I felt welcomed and appreciated and I hope to work again with Bryan. I would recommend without reservation.

Had my first shoot with Bryan Yesterday. He booked me for a 4 hour shoot over in Northampton, when I explained I don't drive and would be getting the train ( no direct route ) he offered to pick me up and drop me off, what a star!!!

He has a really cool studio ( very tidy and comfortable ) we shot mostly gypsy fashion and some more 50's inspired wrap dresses and corsets while chatting away and having a laugh. Bryan pays great attention to detail and happy to have a break when needed. He's very laid back and easy to shoot with. He gave good direction when it was needed but also had faith in me to know what poses I felt worked best for me

Love a photographer who can direct but trust your judgement!!!

I got on really well with Bryan and I look forward to working with him again in the future

Would highly recommend 😊

I worked with Bryan for the first time at his lovely, spacious studio. Bryan kindly collected me for the shoot to take me to the studio and ensured I was fed and watered. His pre-shoot comms were great, so I knew what he wanted to achieve. He was professional at all times and easy to get along with. We tried out a variety of fashion ideas and the shoot flew by, with lots of conversation. I highly recommend Bryan to other models and hope to work with him again soon :)
