Simon was so lovely to work with and is an extremely talented photographer. He had a great set to shoot at and some lovely pros and costumes to make some really cinematic photographs. I would highly recommend, if you want some beautiful shots and laugh too! Until next time!

Had a great shoot with Simon today!

We'd been planning to shoot for several months after I mentioned on here that I was planning to move to Edinburgh back in late 2018. We finally found the time to a do a duo shoot with Xian in Edinburgh and it was fantastic! He was really easy to work with and I felt completely at ease working with him, especially considering it was my first time working with both him and Xian on a witch-themed bondage shoot. We got some truly gorgeous photos and I'm already planning to work with him again in the near future. 10/10 would recommend! :)

I shot with Simon at Pavilion studios a few weeks back while on my tour of Scotland. I had worked with Simon about 4/5 years ago now so it was lovely to finally shoot again after all this time.

Simon booked 2hrs with me and they were very enjoyable-Simon was professional, easy going and creative. Simon had some great ideas and brought along some lovely clothes an props for us to use.

Thanks so much for booking me again.

Hope to see you again in 2019

Ahh simon! You absolute gent!

I am super happy to have met and worked with simon

He is easygoing and relaxed and even though the Accomadation didn't turn out as expected we smashed the shoot and combined ideas to make it happen!

Utilised the space and light well and got good images.

He is a gentleman and ensures the model is comfortable throughput the shoot. Easy to talk to and get on with and really looking forward to shooting more in future.

Definitely a recommendation for simon and thankyou for booking me!

Another wonderful shoot with Simon yesterday in a disused house in the fife area.

This is our third shoot now and I had such a great time. We got some fabulous results and had a very productive shoot together once again.

Simon was on time meeting me at Leuchars station and dropping me off again.

It was a bit chilly and he was constantly making sure I was warm enough and felt comfortable. I loved the images we achieved and I even got to use some of Simons magical props/outfits. He brought along the most adorable red boots which I fell in love with also.

The location we used was lovely with plenty of space and lots of natural light shining in the velux windows.

So professional, skilled, punctual and a lovely kind person, our conversation flowed and we had a good laugh.

Highly recommended, do not miss the chance to work with the lovely person. You will love the results.

Thank you Simon.

Until next time.

This was my second shoot with Simon and what a fabulous shoot it was! This shoot was organised through another photographer and their shoot space so all arrangements were made nice and easily.

On the day Simon arrived on time and was, as before, really chatty and friendly. He was happy to experiment with styling, lighting and shooting the theme that we did which was Liquid Latex & Body Paint.

The shots we got were absolutely stunning & I can't wait to see the results!

I do recommend Simon, he is a talented photographer and a genuine person!

Thanks again Simon and until next time take care!

Had the pleasure of working with Simon in the wild beauty that is Scotland during my tour, fit for the Viking theme we had set out to shoot.

Despite the weather, we certainly made the most of the opportunity to shoot, it was great fun working with Simon and creatively, we both saw eye to eye on what we achieved in camera.

Because of the fun, collaborative spirit, we both achieved some cracking shots to which I cannot wait to see.

Look forward to working with Simon again if I ever get the opportunity and recommend to anyone.

So it was my first time working with Simon and it was how the Geordies say MINT! he picked me up from his local train station and we headed out on location. We went to some really cool and interesting abandoned military buildings on the coast of Scotland. Simon had told me what his ideas where before we started shooting and he has brought along a few pieces of clothing for me to wear. One was a military outfit that I totally loved! it looked great. It was a reasonably warm day but simon was always telling me to get warm and throw a coat on so it was nice that he at least cared that I was cold. Then we climbed on top of the building and shot some really cool bondage style shots that just turned out great. I really loved the whole shoot to be honest and cant wait to work with him again. I would recommend for sure. Thanks for a great shoot, bobbi :D

Another amazing shoot with Simon. This time we worked in a derelict building and on some hay bails which is a shoot I've always wanted to do! All the images look amazing I feel like Simon really captured the moment. We worked so well together! We capture amazing images on every shoot but this has been my favourite, highly recommended!

After many emails trying to sort out a shoot we finally managed to fit one in . Our shoot was a quick solo shoot then duo with Tann Marie . Simon planned out the shoot well fitting in three locations in just a few hours ,a wild field , forrest area and beach ... Simon is a pleasure to work , he is patient and allows his models to pose freely and be creative. Unfotuanlty the sun was too bright fro me to see the back of the camera but im confident that we got some killer shots and cant wait to see them .

Thank you for a great shoot .

I had a shoot with calandra and jessica yesterday and he was great to work with.

Thankyou
