I had my first shoot with james today on location in wraysbury and what can I say ...

What a lovely man ! James's pre communication prior to the group shoot I arranged was superb ! Throwing his own ideas and styles into the images made the final results something spectacular !

Honestly , it wasn't the warmest of days and myself and the 2 other models were feeling it after a few hours but it all helped having great togs and James was one of them .

Quick to grab blankets to keep us warm and always on hand to keep an eye out for any passers/ dog walkers :)

The day flew by and by working with James I got to know a man who really cares about the final result and will always put 110% into the shoot ! You won't be disappointed with James and he's great to have on your team of photographers !!

Thanks again James , I hope to work with you lots in the new year and can't wait to see the final results

All the best

I worked with James at Spitfire studios and what a lovely guy! Full of energy, humour, fun to talk to and just lark around with! The photographs came out absolutely beautiful and I really look forward to seeing the results! Highly recommended to work with, it was a very entertaining shoot and I look forward to another! :) Helen x

Another fun shoot with James at my place- this time with Emma Willis joining us :)

Once again I can only repeat my previous references- nice guy, good fun and up for having a good giggle. Really looking forward to seeing the images and shooting with James again one day!

Fabulous shoot with James today alongside my female modelling partner Rachelle Summers.

Knows exactly what he's doing, images looked amazing, I would wholeheartedly recommend him.

Got on great throughout the shoot, he's very easy to chat with and makes you laugh!

Would love to work with him again so he comes recommended from me.

Many Thanks

My second shoot with James on my recent tour of London.

It was filled with creativity and laughter just like the first shoot we had, only this time we were joined by Tillie Model. He got some lovely images of the 2 of us and had some amazing lighting set ups, I'm really impressed by some of the images, as I was on our first shoot too.

I would highly recommend James to anybody, you will be looked after well and are bound to have a good shoot!

Hope to work with him again in the future :)

Had my second shoot with James alongside Ruby Rosetta last month. He booked two hours with us both and we had a real giggle! After a very happy accident (motion blur in an image when I accidentally moved a bit) it set a really great theme for the rest of the two hours- very Francis Bacon esque!

I really enjoyed the two hours and it was nice to get such good feedback on the images on a recent share a shoot. Thank you James, looking forward to next time! :)

I had a great shoot with James a while ago now - I'm finally leaving him a reference now as I'm rubbish and forgetful - certainly no reflection of my experience on the shoot, as it was fantastic! James shoot myself and Artemis Fauna together, and produced some lovely and very tasteful work. He was great fun to work with, and it felt like a very collaborative process, with myself and Artemis sharing our ideas. I would definitely recommend James, and hope to work with him again!

James is lovely to work with. He gives excellent direction and breaks throughout and dealt calmly and professionally with a couple of minor frustrations that hindered the shoot none of which were his fault, I hasten to add). He's polite, respectful and easy-going, and I would happily recommend him to other models.

I thoroughly enjoyed my shoot with James!

He had plenty of ideas to keep us going during the shoot and explained what he wanted very well.

He was good company, easy to talk to and extremely respectful.

I wouldn't hesitate in recommending him :)

James booked a few hours with myself and Cassie at our recent studio day together in Cheltenham.

We worked on some 1-2-1 and Cassie and I did some images together and we all had a lot of fun in the process.

James had some quite specific ideas to work on but was also happy to hear our ideas too which was nice.

I hope I can work with James again in the future! :)

A keen eye for detail and a talent with lighting makes him a brilliantly professional 'tog to work with. Easy to get along with, I'm definitely happy to recommend him! I hope to work with him again soon!

James was fantastic to work with!

His communication and organisation prior to the shoot were top notch. He was full of ideas and constantly making creative suggestions throughout the shoot. He is easy to get on with, very chatty and friendly. I felt at ease working with him.

We did have a look at the pictures on his laptop during the shoot and the results looked impressive. I can not wait to see the final edits.

I highly recommend James to all!

We had a great shoot together. James is very easy to work with and offered direction to create the look he wanted out of a set as well as allowing me to create and be free to work with my own instincts too. Very enjoyable and relaxed.

I had a wonderful shoot with James yesterday, he arrived promptly and with plenty of ideas for the shoot, He is very friendly and talkative and was very easy to get along with! He was able to adapt quickly and set up in a studio which he hadn't shot in before and was able to make use of a range of lighting set ups and used more unusual ones too! He was able to help give me direction throughout and was clear and great at giving feedback. He is very efficient and able to make full use of the time given to ensure the best shots are achieved on the day. He's a true professional and I thoroughly enjoyed working with him!

I worked with James yesterday (alongside Elisha-Jayne) for the first time, and despite panicking bout London transport most of the afternoon, it was well worth the trip!

James booked us a lovely studio near Langdon Park which I was more than impressed with and the ideas he had for us were brilliant.

James made both me and Elisha feel very comfortable whilst shooting, was very professional throughout and gave great direction in order for us to achieve great results.

Had a sneaky peak at some of the images and I was very impressed with the lighting techniques used to create a certain look/mood for the image.

Cannot wait to see some of the end results and I really hope I get the chance to work with James again!

Travel money and exhaustion from the day well spent! :D

It was a huge pleasure to have the chance to work with James again this month, after a long gap. He's a fantastic photographer, thoughtful and respectful in his approach, and collaborative too. I wouldn't hesitate to work with him again, or to recommend him to other models. If all photographers on the internet were like him, I'd love my job even more than I already do :)

I worked with James all afternoon and it was great, he has specific styles he wanted to work with and then gave me the reins to make of it what I want, which was amazing and after already seeing some of the results I can safely say they were fabulous ideas. James is a really lovely guy, albeit a bit clumsy and I must say you definitely need to keep you eye out when he's on a step ladder!!! I would recommend jams to anyone, he truly is a lovely guy with excellent ideas and the talent to carry them out. Great shoot, wonderful guy and holy recommended

James and I worked together at Eye for an Image in Banbury, it was duo day with Autumn Saphire.

James was perfectly lovely, no ice breaker needed, we got along instantly, great sence of humour! Idea's were flowing back and forth, professional in everyway but totally laid back too. An all round nice chap :)

100% recommended.

A star for Calm Nudes ;)

James came to Firesecret's and mine studio day at Eye for an Image. James was lovely, already and prepared with ideas for our session. Not a photographer who is afraid to get the shot, James was constantly moving making sure that he wasn't going to miss any opportunity for the right image. He was really vibrant and I felt really at ease working with him, we created some beautiful images and some that really say a lot more than words could. I was very happy working with James, and recommend him for other models too.

Working with 'Calm Nudes' was a calm experience. :-) I was modelling alongside Ivory Flame and we did some lovely stuff, with him being courteous and friendly throughout. I'd happily recommend this photographer as being someone pleasant to work with. Thank you! :-)
