I was so chuffed that Brian took part in a 1960s and 70s themed day that I hosted with Retro Rob at Rawpics.

I have worked with Brian many times before and really enjoy being part of his photographic journey. He is keen to learn and try new things, and always willing to work as a team to develop an idea.

We get on really well and I really appreciate Brian's support for my modelling days, both as a solo model and as part of my duo act with Rob. He is always enthusiastic about what we are putting on and gets the most he can out of the shoot.

Many thanks Brian - and of course highly recommended from me! :)

Retro Rob

Another superb shoot with Brian at Raw Pics Studio on part two of the Retro Rob and Melany Tour this times theme Quadrophenia and the Summer of Love.

I have only heard good things about Brian from Melany who has worked with him on many occasions and I can see why he is such a lovely guy who goes to tremendous lengths to capture that special shot I loved working with Brian on my last visit to Raw Pics and this once again proved another winner.

Thank you so much for a brilliant day can't wait to see the final edits and working with you again soon.

Rawpics Studio

Brian has now been to the studio on many occasions and I am so impressed on how his work has progressed in such a very short time.

Brian has a very nice polite manner about him and is always welcome at the studio. He has a very creative mind and often see's a shot other photographer miss, or simply cannot see. This is the strong point of Brian, he is alway managing to capture that moment.

I look forward to seeing Brian here again at the studio as he is always a pleasure to work with.

100% Highly recommended

Brian booked a 3 hour slot at my studio day at Rawpics and as always arrived on time and with some great ideas to start the shoot off.

I really enjoy shooting with Brian and have had the pleasure of many shoots with him so we work well together as a team and are happy and relaxed in each others company.

We covered a range of looks using both inside and outside of the studio - I particularly loved the lighting on a set where we used my angel wings, and also the shots that we captured outside in the gardens - and how Brian came up with some creative ideas and angles.

Many thanks Brian for a really enjoyable shoot and I love the images you captured. Can't wait for next month's shoot :)

Rawpics Studio

Brian came to a recent Retro Gatsby themed shoot at the studio, with Melany & Retro Rob.

Brian has a really creative mind which can be seen when he is shooting, he is always looking at a different angle or in a different position to the other photographers and that's how he creates some amazing work.

I have worked with Brian a few times now and he is alway courteous to the models and the studio.

It is without hesitation that I can highly recommend Brian 100%

I had the pleasure of working with Brian at a group shoot day I was co-hosting with Retro Rob at the amazing Rawpics Studio.

I have worked with Brian many times before and as always he is a delight to shoot with. He fitted in really well with the other photographers on the group shoot and helped create a really collaborative and productive day.

I am looking forward to working with Brian again very soon at my forthcoming solo day at Rawpics.

Highly recommended :)

I had my first shoot with Brian at inspire studios after a while of discussing shooting together and what a great shoot it was!

We shot a mix of fashion and lingerie and worked on ideas together on the shoot really well. Brian is so easy going & I felt comfortable straight away working with him. He arrives at the shoot with all his own equipment & multiple cameras to get those different looks and is very professional.

Would 100% recommend Brian and hope to work again together soon!

Enchanted Evermore Styled Workshops

Brian came on our "Titania" inspired taster workshop.

He was so pleasant, friendly and easy to get on with. He worked very well with the model and other photographers, he was creative with his shots and we have already seen some of the very beautiful images he took.

It was lovely working with him. Highly recommended!

Shoot with Brian again since the last time a year ago. As always, Brian is one of the most genuine photographer and so easy to work with.

He willing yo try different location different style as long as on his limit of level :). We shot at my flat and then on location by walking around to see what come up. I really like the result and was long and fun shoot. If he contact you to shoot with him, you won't be disappointed, highly recommended.

Second time shooting with the absolutely fabulous Brian during my tour down in Salisbury. As soon as there were whispers of me being down again, Brian got straight on it, as he especially loves to shoot dancers :)

We did an early location shoot by some church ruins with dancing and elegant poses (as well as some flouncing about in buttercups)! The next day we did some dance shooting in Salisbury centre and then headed on to Inspire studios for a mixture of dance and fashion.

Brian's comms are superb. It was really easy to organise something with him and planning was fantastic. Brian is really fun to shoot with, he's really chatty and knows what he likes in an image! Brian's super relaxed and laid back. He's always really patient, especially when allowing dancer's time to warm up :) The images on the back of the camera and laptop looked awesome and it's amazing seeing the final results come through.

I very much hope to shoot with Brian again when I am next down :)

Girl on Fire - Lydia

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Brian!

Today was my first shoot with him at Inspire Studios. He was so polite, professional and a joy to work with!

We worked well together to come up with spontaneous shots which ended up with a punk style ballerina!

I really do recommend Brian to anyone!

I have already seen some of the images and I am so happy with them!

Thank you so much Brian, can’t wait to work with you again !

I had yet another shoot with Brian, this time we had the luxury of a studio as we are normally shooting on location battling a windy day or harsh sun! We shot coca cola themed pin up which is our best work yet! Every shoot, we seem to get better than before, so I'm definitely excited for future shoots with Brian as we continue to grow together creatively. Comms are always 100%

Absolutely love working with Brian.

This is the 2nd time shooting together but on a 121 basis instead. Brian is very easy to work with and always happy with me combining my ideas. Brian is very friendly, professional, keen to the right shot. His images on the back of camera are just beautiful, and once processed even better.

Thank you for choosing to work with me again Brian. Hope you enjoyed the pink hair.

Look forward to working with you again.

I worked with Brian during my studio day at Inspire recently. He was really friendly and chatty throughout, super keen to get things right, considerate, professional, encouraging of collaboration, input and feedback, with some awesome camera kit (lovely shallow depth of field lenses) and we created some gorgeous, high quality images together in the time! Thank you Brian :-)

It was great to see Brian back at the studio after lockdown number 3. He was shooting with Xkes this time and being his second time he was more relaxed and really got into the shoot with some nice ideas. He also used his own lighting for some of the shoot and mastered them well. As always it was a pleasure to see him enjoying his shoot and look forward to seeing him back again.

Had a lovely shoot with Brian whilst I was at Inspire Studios on a modelling day. It’s the second time we’ve shot together now & definitely not our last.

We had 3 hours and they actually flew by.

Brian is so lovely & the shoot flowed really well with some wicked shots. From dance to fashion to hoop. We covered a lot of ground & collaborated really well.

Brian had a lot of great stories to tell & is such a great character! Was loving working with you again Brian & looking forward to the next time!

I was so glad Brian could attend my studio day at Rawpics Studio - the first post-lockdown.

The time went very fast and we didn’t even have a chance to use the garden this time but captured some fantastic shots against the studio’s brand new backdrops including with the aerial hoop and silks in the new infinity cove.

I’ve worked with Brian many times and we always produce great images together.

Thank you Brian for a great shoot and I very much look forward to seeing the images :)
