I have shot with Carl many times and have always been 100% happy & comfortable with the shoot itself and the results.

Carl is an amazing person to work with as his attention to detail and understanding of the continuously changing fashion trends means that the images he produces are always of a very high standard.

Very Highly Recommended.

Yet another fab shoot with Carl! I absolutely love working with him, his work is incredible and his eye for detail is amazing! Every shoot I've ever done with Carl has been so much fun, and so educational. His direction is very detailed, and he knows exactly what both parties need to be doing in order to get the perfect shot. On top of all that, we also have plenty of fun and laughs on every shoot. Carl is relaxed and fun to chat to, but professional as well. His images are beautiful and it is easy to see how much work and care he puts into them. I have learnt so much through working with Carl, and have been given so many opportunities through that. I highly recommend him to anyone - whether you are just starting out and need someone to show you the ropes or a professional looking for some show-stopping additions to your portfolio!

Well what can I say about Carl? I shot with him today and boy is he a character. Great fun,full of one liners and a true gentleman. I was completely cracked up by him.

His photography skills are fantastic and he really teaches you how to pose. He knows exactly what he wants and how to get it. I truly admire him and I am chuffed to bits I got the chance to work with him.

Couldn't give a higher recommendation for him. Thoroughly enjoyed myself

He is such a lovely guy to get on with and has so many great ideas. Carl gives great direction and makes you look amazing in this photos. I would highly recommend him :)

Looking forward to be working with you again!

I had a great shoot with Carl, he is very professional, full of energy and very hard working! He has an eye for the image he is after and gives great direction to get it. I can't wait to shoot again and I would highly recommend him. I should also add Carl was very much a gentlemen.. left the room while I was changing, organised a mua and supplied us with plenty of tea and coffee throughout the shoot and finished with a bite to eat. Thankyou for a fab day Carl, look forward to seeing more images and working together again :) x

Carl is one of the most enthusiastic, creative and hard-working photographers I have ever had a pleasure to work with. He has got a great eye to a detail; excellent to work with on fashion shoots. Fantastic guidance & communication with a model; laid-back personality & great sense of humor. He gave so many tips about modelling also. Would love to work with Carl again. Highly recommended !
