Enjoyed our excellent first home shoot with Black swann. We had excellent pre shoot comms and we wasted no time creating some great images. I would strongly recommend and look forward to shooting again very soon. Thank you.

Well I’m not sure what else I can say that’s not already been said;

She was amazing as ever, totally driven to make sure the photographer gets the best pictures possible. Nothing was ever too much trouble to try. Give her a prop and has no issues coming up with great poses to incorporate it into a great picture.

Totally recommended and look forward to working with her again very soon !

My first shoot with the rather wonderful and talented Blackswann. Pre shoot communications were perfect as was the welcoming cuppa and chat.

Blackswann posed with ease, oozed class and looks stunning. She moved through our various set scenarios with enthusiasm and the sense of fun required, adding her own ideas and contributing tremendously to the artistic process.

A beautiful model, wonderful young lady and destined to be regular collaborator for many years to come. Highly recommended.

Today I was very fortunate to have shot with the lovely and amazing BlackSwan. It was an absolute pleasure working with this young lady – pre-comm.’s were spot on. We used her studio flat, where she met me and had arranged all the outfits we’d discussed.

She was warm, welcoming and a true pleasure to shoot. I can’t remember the time flying so fast – the number of great shots we got were brilliant.

I would 100% recommend this model for any beginner or experienced photographer – be warned she has a wicked sense of humour and a smile that just melts your heart.

I simply cant wait for many more shoots.

Just had my first shoot with this fireball! What can I say about this amazing woman?! She is amenable, punctual, keen as mustard, funny, witty, personable and pumped!

So energetic! She tired me out! A wonderful experience. Pre-comms were excellent. She arrived on time and brought with her ideas and a great range of poses and expressions. An absolute professional. She was a real trooper, putting up with my odd ideas and the cold November location shoot! I'd love to work with her again and of course I'd highly recommend her. A huge thank you.. and we beat the rain! Yay! :-)

I have worked with Blackswann twice and there will be many more times to come!

She is so incredibly talented and so easy to work with, I had learnt so much from working with her that I was able to implement it in my own work. A true professional and such fun to be around! I cannot wait to work with her again :)

Thank you my Model Partner! ♥

I had the pleasure of working with Blackswann again at the Woolton Hall Networking event organised by John Ayliffe. Fab model with boundless enthuasiasm and energy. Great posing and outfits. Never disappoints. Very highly recommended.

I met Liene at a Woolton hall event. It was my first time here and she was the first I worked with here. Really put me at ease but also she is so experimental and vibrant.

I had seen her work with other photographers on here before meeting her plus she was recommended to me at another shoot I was at. I am really excited to finish working on the shots and share them with her as her style is totally new to me which is perfect.

Thank you for making me feel so welcome on the day

Having been to Woolton a number of times, this week was the first time I've shot with her, and needless to say she lived up to her name.

To compliment other references Blackswan has enthusiasm and soul by the bucket load as well as bringing her own ideas to the shoot.

Our shoot consisted of a couple of sets, starting with a shoot outside in which she expressed an idea about some nearby foliage creating some great shadow patterns to work with... the resulting shots were art.

Secondly we moved inside to shoot against a backdrop in an environment with controlled lighting, after each drop of the shutter Blackswan moved into alternative positions one after the other, each one more expressive than the last.

I'd highly recommend shooting with Blackswam because of her energy, expressive nature and desire to create, and I would certainly shoot with her again.

We were shooting at her apartment and there is a huge amount of space, nearly as huge as the young ladies boundless enthusiasham, energy and commitment to the shoot

We were working off a mood board submitted prior to the shoot and Liene hads prepared well and planned all the senerios out to fit in with the time we had agreed

Liene has limitless energy, enthusiasm, and commitment to achieving the best images and never falters or seems to wind down

Superb Coffee, Tea with Honey, sandwiches and sweet snacks really hard to put down, appeared at various times during the shoot :-)

Liene is an unstoppable creative ball of energy and the happiness to be involved in your project is invigorating and a breath of fresh air, pushing you as a photographer to achieve images worthy of Lienes efforts.

Liene is 100% superb with;

I had opportunity to work with Blackswann.

Our communication was easy. She is a gorgeous model,with sense of humour,crazy and I can continue with a lot of qualities, she enjoyed every seconds in front of camera, confident and comfortable to work with.

We spent a good time together and i really want to work again with her.

Many thanks for this refreshing shoot.

What can I say about Liene? Well she joined us again on our latest Nude in Nature photoshoot day and as usual she an absolute gem :) Her modelling skills are awesome flowing from directed to free posing in a heartbeat. Agile, flexible and always looking to push a bit further to get that shot!

Her verve, sense of humour and excitement for life are infectious making a day fly by.

So if you want an awesome model this lady is one of the best :)

Luv ya loads Liene :)

Mad as herd of long tailed cats i room with a rocking chair.

Blackswann is a little firecracker who drinks coffee to calm down. :)

We've shot together several times and each time just gets better and better.

Damn good model, gorgeous looks, and wicked sense of humour. What more do you need to create some awesome images? Well, just your camera.

Highly recommended, she's a good friend and bloody good model.

See you soon.

Shoot with BlackSwann at her apartment in Widnes.

Pre-shoot comms were simple and date arranged quickly. I had allowed more time for travel so was early, but BlackSwann was happy to feed me coffee and we started early.

She is exactly as her profile would suggest and her photos are accurate, she is extremely bubbly and energetic, and the pace at which she can work at meant that we finished in record time.

Recommended for all, great lady, loads of energy and makes good coffee

I've met several models with masses of spirit and enthusiasm in the past, but they're beyond tame compared to Liene.

I wasn't prepared for her amazing approach and seemingly boundless energy.

Now personally, I'm a huge fan of all things Eastern Europe so I was very excited to work with Latvias finest export!

She brought out her outfits and whipped through them, barely taking a breath! We shot at her apartment and between chats, I captured some video and some glorious stills and Liene was unstoppable, ensuring *that* shot was achieved!

Honestly, I'm still blown away and once I've recovered, we'll be working together again. Repeatedly!

Absolutely recommended!

Thanks chuckles, stay healthy!

An explosion of personality that has more energy than a case of Redbull.

I was lucky to grab a quick shoot with her close to the end of a Woolton Hall Network event... No plans, No pre-prepared ideas but complete flow off the cuff.

Blackswann will seduce your lens and tease those shots out of you; with little to absolute no direction needed.

A diamond to shoot and for sure will be connecting again!

Thank you for the energy

I had the very great pleasure of having a shoot with Blackswann at Woolton Hall recently. An absolute pleasure to work with. Super energetic with enthusiasm levels to match. Superb posing skills and just a delight to shoot with. It's virtually impossible not to come away with great images when shooting with this brilliant model. Very highly recommended.

Blackswann is one hell of a multi-talented model. With her on set it’s like having a team on board. She’s full of ideas, bags of energy and knows how to ‘work it’ and then some. I could write an essay about her but suffice to say her references and images says it all.

Many Thanks! Can’t wait till the next time.

Wow! Blackswann is simply awesome! I have had the pleasure of shooting with on many occasions and every time it's just a treat to work with her.

Blackwann is a fizzing ball of enthusiastic energy, eagerness and positivity. She's the human equivalent of a Lush Bath Bomb. :)

She a model who's not afraid to pose, if you know what I mean. She's willing to go the extra mile to obtain the shot we have in mind.

And speaking of mind, Blackswann has fab ideas. Many of our shoots are the result of us bouncing and expanding her or my original spark of an idea.

So, yes, ultra highly recommended. Thank you Blackswann
