I had a brilliant first shoot with Darren at my place today. Pre comms were great and Darren was confident with using the space to achieve some great lighting.

Darren is creative and fun to work with, as well being fantastic company with great humour 😊

All in all a fantastic time, can’t wait till our next shoot!

Thank you

I had my third shoot with Darren recently at my home. Darren is always a pleasure to work with - we always have such a good laugh and a natter throughout. We worked at a relaxed pace and managed to fit in several different looks. Not only does Darren produce some amazing images, but he's friendly, fun and professional! I would definitely recommend working with him and I look forward to the next one :D

What can I say? Such a top shoot with Darren, our second!

Great to use the studio and make some very amazing sensual and soft shots, as well as him being absolutely game for shooting a huge robe I brought along.

We had a proper laugh, a good boogie to the music and made some awesome stuff.

Comms top notch as always, contact sheet returned swiftly, the only issue was being able to whittle down a top 10 as they were epic!!

100 percent recommended. Shoot with him if you get the chance!!!!

Yet again a brilliant shoot with Darren recently, this time we used a barbers he has the use of which made it different and quirky and it was interesting using a barbers chair - which that black and white is now honestly one of my favourite photos I've ever done!!

I say it every time but honestly is such a pleasure working with Darren, we have grown a brilliant working friendship and therefore each shoot keeps topping the one before and I honestly don't know how we do it but every shoot we just get such awesome photos each time!

Highly recommend working with Darren, and I'm already planning more with him and looking forward to working together again soon hopefully.

I had my second shoot with Darren recently at my home and it was fantastic! Darren is super friendly, professional and respectful and has a great sense of humour. We managed to fit in many different 'looks' and 'sets' and the photos are amazing! Darren takes a lot of care in ensuring he is happy with the lighting and composition of his photos and the shoot was at a relaxed yet highly productive pace. We had many giggles throughout and it was great fun! I look forward to our next shoot :D

Had my first shoot with Darren on a very early sunrise shoot.

Totally amazing!!

Spoke to Darren before the shoot and found him very professional.

I look forward to shooting with him very soon.

Highly recommended🙂

I worked with Darren for some portraits and it was brilliant! He is such a friendly person but also professional and respectful. The imagery was beautiful and he was really able to capture who I am.

I absolutely recommend him to anyone and I really look forward to working with him again!

Got in touch with Darren as I had a free day and fancied a shoot, we’ve worked together a few times now and always create such great work so it’s nice to be able to call upon him if I have any ideas or just fancy a shoot! :D

We always have great banter throughout our shoots, and there’s never a dull moment! This time round we didn’t really have much of a plan but spoke a bit before about outfits etc and we found a location and from that we both began getting creative and the ideas just flowed from one to another so well.

Honestly such a great laugh to be around, whilst also being professional and respecting my comfort throughout.

As always I highly recommend working with him and already excited for our next shoot, we have a few we have discussed already!! :D

I'm very happy I had my first photo shoot with Darren, who was so helpful and patient with me. Thank you!

We met for coffee beforehand to discuss ideas etc and that helped me a lot to feel more relaxed on the shoot day.

All very professional!

I can only but recommend working with Darren

Had my 4th shoot with the wonderful Darren in our first studio shoot together. All arrange professionally and thoroughly beforehand. He is a pure pleasure to work with and the perfect gentleman. I always feel safe and respected with Darren. We got such stunning images (as always) I cannot recommend him highly enough.

What can I say?

Having met up a month prior to chat and have a coffee, this shoot was definitely one I was looking forward to

Top notch pre comms, punctual, polite and respectful, well equipped with backdrops/lights/props and cossies

Fab playlist

Epic banter

And an all round top bloke.

Proofs sent that night. Wow.

Highly recommend. 😊

A long time in the planning, the day finally arrived when Darren and I would get to shoot together. Having admired his work for some time, I had a feeling our styles would be compatible, but the experience of working with Darren was even better than I'd imagined. He's respectful, considerate, easy going yet professional, funny, and very easy to talk to. He's skilled when it comes to lighting and has a talent and a gift for composition and angles. I'm very much looking forward to our next shoot together.

Honey Dew

I would absolutely recommend working with Darren. All communications were brilliant and he was very understanding and empathetic to my views on what I wanted to achieve. He made me feel comfortable throughout and was professional from start to finish during the shoot. I really look forward to working with him again and creating some great art.

Each shoot together just gets better and better and I love it, we can bounce ideas off one another, have lots of banter and laughs throughout and the time just flies by!!

This time we went down to Camber Sands for a brief shoot in the sand dunes, and the weather held out for us once again which was fab! I absolutely LOVE the images I have seen already and can’t wait to see more, honestly can’t express how chuffed I am with the results.

Darren is always respectful of me and checks that I’m happy with various poses and always shows me on the back of the camera if in doubt which I really appreciate. He has a great eye for detail and I’m already excited for our next shoots together!!

Until next time :D x

Thanks Darren!

So great to work with Darren in person again and we did have a great laugh!! The weather even held out for us and we got some cracking shots! Would highly recommend working with him if you haven’t already, and love the fact he brings blankets along with him for me to stay warm between shots as there’s nothing worse than me getting cold!! :P

Thanks for another fab shoot, already looking forward to the next one and we have so many ideas yet to do so watch this space! :D

Until next time! x

Had a remote shoot with Darren, we had communicated beforehand and he made me feel so comfortable and safe. Shoot day came and he was so prepared for everything, nothing could have spoiled the shoot. A perfect gentleman with a heart of gold and the best sense of humour. I was shocked and in awe at the effort and time he put into every single photograph and the results are beyond words. I am so, so happy with the results and i can't wait to work together again. Perfect, perfect, perfect.

Had a remote shoot over zoom recently, which was fab even if at one point I had both my phone and laptop on video call to him and used both my dslr cameras we still got some cool shots!

We have worked together a few times now (mainly virtually due to covid) but each time we just seem to nail the shots we both want and are able to think outside the box a bit more and get very creative with our ideas. I do hope our next shoot is in person again but either way I know it’s going to be great!

Highly recommend this guy to work with as he’s a good laugh but also professional and respectful of the model.

Thanks again for another great shoot and until next time!! :D x

Had a wonderful first shoot with Darren, we met beforehand to discuss ideas and both had lots of input into what we wanted to create.

Communication was excellent, Darren is friendly and professional. I felt very comfortable.

The results of the shoot are amazing - I look forward to working with him again.
