My first photoshoot with Calandra in the suggestive kingdom of Fife. A beautiful experience under any aspect. Great communication and planning ahead with Calandra, and this was key for this one-day, three-site, witchcraft-themed shoot. All locations where previously inspected by Calandra so that on the shooting day we knew exactly what to expect. The story line was meticously explained which allowed me to prepare at the best of my capabilities. Great leads for the poses and extremely versitile photographer also on difficult locations. Nudes cannot be more pleasurable and Calandra was very careful and kind with me when the temperature was low and the wind owling that I wasn't getting too cold and eventually giving breaks to warm up and then shoot again.

All in all, I enjoyed so much working with Calandra and can reccomend him with confidence. 10 out of 10!

Simon was an absolute pleasure to work with! My friend Alice and I had some issues getting to the location and he was very understanding. The costumes and the shoot were amazing. He has great ideas and is very enthusiastic about his work! Can’t wait to shoot with him again and if you get the chance to work with him I would definitely recommend that you do so!

I had an amazing time with Simon.I was totally comfortable to shoot in front of his camera and he gave us so many possibilities of themes within one shoot. We did two different themes with costumes. He is also really understanding since I arrived 1 hour late because of transport problems but he wasn’t mad at all which give us the opportunity to have a wonderful shoot. We will shoot again in spring and I am looking forward for it.

This is my first time working with Simon and it had been a great pleasure. He brought a good amount of props for our shoot one of them being a selkie and another a female warrior look It was very fun acting upon them and definitely felt like a warrior especially on the beautiful Ellie beach where the shoot was talking place. He was very considerate and always made sure I was okay considering its getting much colder. He made me feel comfortable from the start and we had a few laughs along the way! I would highly recommend working with him!

This being the second time I have worked with Simon-- this time one on one. He graciously offered to meet me halfway on travel, was very patient despite my costume taking a while to put on, and very relaxed while we were shooting.

We had a good rapport on finding the best poses/lighting for the harem-style theme-- I expect the pictures will reflect this wonderfully.

I have worked with Simon on a few occasions now. I always look forward to our shoots because its always something fun and creative as simon has such a collection of outfits, props and well anything you could ever imagine. On this occasion i was a warrior woman with a sword and everything. We where shooting on location in the woods and simon was always considerate in terms of letting my put me coat on and take breaks as it was on the chilly side that day. We did two different warrior looks and had a lot of laughs in between. It was so much fun to do a bit of acting for a change and i think simon found my warrior run particularly funny ..... as did i. I would recommend him for sure, the friendliest and most easy going photographer out there and great company too. Thanks a lot for yet another fantastic shoot simon, i really enjoyed myself.

Simon is a very approachable, warm photographer with whom I had the pleasure to work with on a location group shoot. Weather did not dampen his spirits, and he put me at ease with his chatty nature.

I would of course recommend him to any model searching to make some amazing artistic images.

It was great to meet Simon on my group mermaid shoot in St.Andrews. He was very friendly and professional. It was a pleasure to work together

Simon was part of a group event today at St Andrews and was my first time working with him. He was friendly from the start, wearing a very warm smile at all times during the shoot. He was easy to work with an approachable and would really love to work with him and get to chat a bit more with this great photographer! Thank you for coming today!! Loved it.

I had another awesome shoot with the lovely Simon in Fife! Although I managed to run over a poor lady's flower pot prior we managed to get into the flow and created some awesome images! He has so many amazing props including a peacock chair which looked amazing! I can't wait to see the pictures and look forward to working with him again. Highly recommended :)

Second shoot with Simon a couple of week ago on my Scotland tour!

We headed out on location again- this time to an AMAZING tree Simon had seen on a postcard. Using the last bit of my phone data I did my best to navigate us there and bingo, we found it!!!

Loads of amazing images created- I'm VERY EXCITED to see the results- Simon, please please don't hide these away- they need to be seen!! Hahah.

Thank you for a super shoot- hope we can have another adventure next year! Might even be able to spot that rare Stiletto fly next time!! :)

First time shooting with Simon and it went well above expectations! First location was a poppy field, location was lovely and straight away and throughout Simon was chatty which instantly put me at ease and just an all round lovely guy. Second location was a field of blue flowers which again was lovely.

Amazing day spend with great company, looking forward to our next shoot!

This was my second time working with Simon and it was even more enjoyable than last time. He is a lovely, really interesting person and love working with him.

Simon is such a joy to work with ! This was our second shoot after a few years and we’ve worked from the most beautiful derelict location near Cupar!!!

We’ve worked on a series of art nudes and implied nudes and had such an amazing time !

Simon is professional at all times and so easy to work with. We had a very productive shoot and really hope to work again in the future :)

Very highly recommended of course

Thank you very much

Good first shoot with Callandra today. His pre shoot communication was great and he presented as very organised when it came to what he wanted in his shoot. Callandra was able to get some great shots with the space that we had.

Simon is just by far one of my top favourite photographers to work with when I’m up in Scotland. Such a lovely lovely person, and always a gem to work with. The only downfall I would say is the time goes by far too quickly.... even if shooting in a cold location! Who cares about the cold if you are working with this photographer? Because, you just know you are going to get breath taking images every single time! Amazing photographer, outstanding, had a good eye for detail and set up, absolutely brilliant! Thanks again Simon for helping to make my Scotland tour so worthwhile once again! Always a pleasure and highly recommended by me!
