I had a very enjoyable and productive first shoot with Nigel at his home yesterday.

We covered a wide range of genres, from portraits to BDSM/shibari. Nigel was receptive to ideas that I put forward and was very easy to direct. He also contributed his own ideas and posed freely without direction.

We had extensive communication in advance of the shoot and we had a good pool of ideas to draw on. Although we had never worked together previously, we seemed to be on the same page almost straightaway. Nigel interpreted our ideas very effectively for the camera which made my job much easier.

Great comms, great hospitality and a very versatile model. What more could you ask for?

Highly recommended!!

Thank you Nigel.

I had my second shoot today with Nigel, almost exactly 1 year since we shot last time. Even though it has been a while since we last shot together, it was just like walking into the house of an old friend and chatting away like you only seen each other last week.

Pre-shoot comms were great and Nigel was ready to go when I arrived. Nigel is very creative himself, and so shooting with him becomes a real collaborative exercise - both throwing in ideas as we go.

Nigel is an articulate, thoughtful and kind person - there is absolutely no bravado or macho side at all. This make for a relaxed, calm and successful shoot.

I really enjoy shooting with Nigel and would recommend him to any photographers - especially if you want to work in a collaborative and creative environment.

I hope we can do it again soon.

Vision – how do you as a photographer meet up with a model’s vision?

This was the challenge that Nigel set me in a casting call, he wanted a photographer to paint him nude with gold paint, then take photos of him adorned with horns, posed with a bow and arrow.

Communications were excellent both before, and during the shoot. Nigel is a very talented model, a true creator, so easy to work with, and it was an absolute pleasure working with him on this project.

Thanks Nigel, for a completely different photoshoot that challenged me on so many levels. Nigel comes highly recommended, and I would be happy to work with him again next time he has a quirky idea!!

Had a great suited and booted portraiture shoot earlier today with Nigel and really enjoyed it.

Nigel is a very charming, hospitable and easy going, the shoot felt very relaxed and we got great images from it.

I highly recommend working and shooting with Nigel, he has a very natural posing ability, very receptive to ideas and direction although to be honest, doesn’t really need any direction and maintained great communication leading up to the shoot, so we were both on the same page and eased straight through the shoot…

Certainly will shoot with Nigel again. Highly recommended!!

Thank you Nigel

Regards

Nigel was waiting for me when I arrived at the meeting point from there we took a short walk to a wooded area Nigel had already scouted. The shoot was at Nigel's request for out door art nude. He was well aware that this would be my first venture in to shooting male art nudes. He did agree to done my medieval archer equipment which is heavy and very hot when the temp was in the 20's before putting the kit on. He endured this also me constantly changing the camera setting to match the light with out complaint. When went on to shoot the nude pictures as he requested the shoot in the first please I followed his lead with him listening to my suggestions. He was happy with the shoot despite the tech issues I had which was very important to me as I was working for him rather than the other way round. He has experience and passion in plentiful supply . I would happy to recommend and work with him again in the future

I had a great shoot with Nigel, he was ready to shoot as soon as I arrived, so, after a coffee and catch up we got some great images. We had discussed some of the images that I would like to achieve, and Nigel did not disappoint! We used a window, mirrors and a specialist sideboard to help express our creativity with great effect.

I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Nigel to photographers who want to achieve shots that are unique.

Thank you Nigel for an awesome shoot.

Nigel turned up on time, Was friendly, easy to work with and a really nice fellow particularly as I have not worked in the the nude art genre before. Hopefully the images will do him justice. Would absolutely recommend Nigel and may well shoot with him again .Thanks mate.

This was my 5th photo shoot with Nigel. He wanted to try something different and being a novice I was happy to experiment. very pleased with the results and very different from the photos I usually take. Nigel is a great model to work with and has some great ideas Im looking forward to the next shoot

Second shoot with Nigel although previous was a few years ago. As usual comms were great and after a coffee and a chat we got on with various scenes at my studio including some outdoors. Brilliant human as well as a model and easy to direct and with his input as well. Highly recommend Nigel to anyone looking for a male model with so many looks and ideas.

Great to have Nigel doing his first shoot here today, even though I only got chance to say hi!

Got on really well with his photographer, after reading the highly positive reference that he received.

Nigel treated studio spaces and props available respectfully. Hopefully I will get an opportunity to have a chat with Nigel in person on another shoot and I'm happy to recommend!

My first shot with Nigel today, and I wasn't disappointed. He kept in touch with ideas and suggestions right up to the shoot, he was punctual and ready to start on arrival. He came along with a selection of outfits and hats and really looked the part. He took direction without hesitation (Not that I had to give much)and had some valuable ideas throughout the shoot.

We managed to discuss some future shoots which I really look forward to.

A really easy going guy, eager to get the results we were both looking for, I cannot recommend him highly enough

This was my second shoot with Nigel and as before it was a really good one.

We started outside and as agreed Nigel was suited & booted – the locations he took us too were ideal and I am very happy with the results. Nigel needs no direction and posed intuitively in the locations we were went to. The same can be said for the natural light shots we did inside during the second half of the shoot.

Nigel is good company and the shoot just flew by – I can highly recommend him to any photographer…

Nigel was great to work with.

Communication was quick and polite.

Nigel was extremely polite and immaculately prepared, has a professional attitude, very easy to work with and a great guy. Therefore, I highly recommend.

Robert Wisken

Nigel was fantastic from the moment we spoke to the day of sending the final images. He really helped me get some amazing shots and being my first shoot of this style made it much easier than I first thought.

Communication was top, the willingness to try new ideas and being a creative person himself all contributed in a very successful shoot.

I am already thinking up new ideas and would not hesitate in using Nigel for any future photoshoot.

Thank you again Nigel, 5 out of 5 from me!

I have just had the pleasure of my first shoot with Nigel. pre-shoot comms were excellent, we discussed options and what we were looking for from the shoot and quickly had a shoot date in the calendar.

On meeting Nigel, he was immediately warm and friendly and any nerves I had vanished quickly. We chatted as I set up and once a cup to coffee was had, we worked through the shots really quickly - the day just flew by.

Nigel was great with poses and took direction and tweaks well. He was very patient while I got lights in the right place... quite a few times... for the same shot :)

We have a great bunch of shots to process and had a great day to boot. I would not hesitate to recommend Nigel to amateurs and professional photographers and I would love to work with Nigel again.

Chris Alias

Had the absolute pleasure of my first PP shoot with the creative & charismatic Nigel. Pre-shoot comms were excellent & he arrived punctually & looking incredibly sharp.

Nigel is relaxed, approachable, enthusiastic, charming, open minded & articulate. He posed effortlessly with very little direction required and contributed an incredible positive vibe that drove the shoot along.

We started with some tight headshots quickly moving on to full length portraits before a darker BDSM/Slave/Erotic vibe incorporating several of my custom made props.

His persona switched with outfits, he's a great laugh, showed patience whilst I switched out the props/set & his love of the art absolutely shone through.

I have no doubt we'll be working together again and would not hesitate to recommend.

Well another great shoot with the lovely Nigel. As always Nigel was immaculately turned out and in the style we discussed prior to the shoot.

The shoot was very focused on a particular look I was after which we achieved very quickly, then we had a bit of a play just for the fun of it.

Nigel is an extremely versatile model, takes direction well and always keen to input to the end look.

I couldn't recommend Nigel highly enough, so guys looking for a great model with many looks then Nigel is most certainly your man.

Mothy

What a fantastic shoot with Nigel, even though we had been chatting on line via PP for a while nothing quite prepared me for actually meeting Nigel. All was discussed and planned on line prior to my arrival, after a coffee and a chat we got ready for our duo shoot which was part clothed and part nude. His wardrobe had been bought specifically for the shoot and he looked great in it, well chosen.

We moved through several sets working through to art nude and mild erotica.

The back of camera photos looked amazing as Nigel just has that way about him to pose naturally artistic, almost as if he doesn't have too try hard.

A very definate recommendation from me and on to the next, please. .. .

After we'd been fav'ing and commenting on each others pictures for a good few months, we managed to get a date sorted for a shoot. While we both love working outside, frosty January day's are not the best for location work so an indoor session was arranged at Nigel's place.

Nigel's preshoot communication was at another level compared to most, we discussed and agreed exactly what we were doing in the days prior to the shoot.

His place is warm and welcoming and the coffee hot, he helped me carry gear into his place (why did I take so much?)

The shoot it'self started with Scotish favor fashion in his lounge and progressed through to art nudes in the bedroom, Nigel has a great sense of fashion and has his own look, which comes through. He has a very good look and a way of posing which comes across as natural, at no time did any of his poses look un natural.

It was a really good shoot and created so many great photos, a very definate recommendation from me, we will be arranging more shoots especially when the weather is more favorable, roll on spring and the next shoot.
