This was my first time to meet the lovely Cariad on a Artemisian event out in Tuscany. I have to admit I really didn’t know anything about her only that they would only pick the best models for the trip. And I have to say Cariad was no exception and has to be the nicest and most friendliest person you are likely to meet.

Her posing and skills as a model was pure poetry always working hard and always had that little bit extra time if I didn’t get it right the first time. I new it was going to be a fabulous trip but Cariad made it epic.

Highly recommended

I worked with Cariad on an Artemesian event in Tuscany. She is lovely to work with and be around. When you're on an event like this for a few days, it's always a bonus when the group get on and you have a laugh together. Cariad is easy to shoot with, she brings her own ideas to a situation and communicates well, especially listening about keying to a directional light. Hope we work together again :) Highly recommended

I met Cariad for the 1st time on the recent Artemisian event in Tuscany and she was a pleasure to speak to as we had plenty of time to during the meals and long evenings. She was great to work with being a very experience modeland helpped me get some great images. Highly recommended

I've had the pleasure of working with Cariad twice now, most recently on the Artemisian event in Tuscany.

Cariad is a terrific model and great company. Although she feels most comfortable as an artistic nude model, Cariad has a great complexion, good cheekbones and a wonderful sense of style that means she can also deliver stunning portraits and fashion images. Thank you for making our 4 days in Tuscany so enjoyable and productive. Hopefully we'll get the chance to work together again in the future.

Way back in September last year (so sorry for the delay!!) Cariad worked super hard throughout the entire trip we hosted out in Tuscany.

She helped produce so many amazing images and was lovely to spend time with. There have been so many striking images of Cariad going up- I really regret not taking more of her myself due to lack of time :(

I adore the images I have seen from the trip- both the duo images and the unique trio images were super successful and I'm so pleased I asked Cariad to join us. Lots of great memories from the time out in Italy :D

Thank you so much :D :D

I had the pleasure of working with Cariad for the first time on a 5 day day Artemisian event in Tuscany. We shot many different styles over the course of the trip, and she nailed every one. She's an extremely versatile and professional model, full of ideas and poses. She really knows what she's doing and looks incredible in the process. She contributed ideas to each set of images and I really welcomed her input. The wardrobe she brought was carefully considered and worked beautifully to compliment every scenario we shot in. We had so much fun whilst shooting and socialising at the end each day. I can't recommend Cariad highly enough, and look forward to working together again in future.

I worked with Cariad for the first time on a recent Artemisian event in Tuscany. Over the four days we shot in a wide variety of styles and themes and in every one we created some great images. Cariad is an experienced and versatile model as well as a creative photographer and she really helped me get the most out of our time together. I hope to be able to work with her again soon!

I had been kindly invited, and then received such a warm welcome from my wonderful hosts and true and treasured friends KieranDahl and Cariad, the latter whom I had come to shoot with for my first time in their small but very beautiful Derby home. During my stay with this lovely twosome, they did everything to make sure that I was looked after. They prepared the most exquisite vegan dishes and went out of their way to provide me with a very comfortable room for the night.

Having worked with Cariad thirteen times to date, I feel that she has become an integral part of my portfolio and has helped to give it a personality of its own. I always feel completely comfortable with her both on and off set. Just as importantly, she is always deeply respectful of me and mine.

Upon entering the house, I felt that I could have happily photographed every inch of the place. It is that wonderful and inspiring.

During our most recent pre shoot correspondence, Cariad suggested that I only bring a couple of dresses with me as she had plenty of her own to work with. I quickly discovered that her wardrobe was simply colossal!

Once again, Cariad and I hardly stopped during our eight our session. She and I kept the ideas coming while we had very beautiful September light. She was true to her word when she told me how wonderful the natural light is in her dwelling.

I felt so happy to have shot here, and I do hope to make a return visit in the very near future.

Thank you so much Cariad (and Kieran). This one was a truly magical experience. See you real soon.

What an absolute pleasure it is to work with Cariad. I have admired her fine art nude work in particular for some time, so was very much looking forward to working with her when I travelled up to the Derby area recently.

Cariad is a very professional and experienced model, who produces interesting and creative poses with apparent ease. Not only this, but she works really hard even when, as on our shoot, it is a long day shooting outdoors at some arduous and demanding sites.

Cariad's pre-shoot communications are impeccable, and I was also looking forward to meeting her partner Kieran, who helped throughout the day with great knowledge of some wonderful locations, careful driving, interesting conversation and a wonderful talent for producing food and hot tea when most needed!

All in all my shoot with Cariad was very productive indeed, producing exactly the sort of images I had hoped to create with her.

I certainly very highly recommend working with Cariad to other photographer! 😊😊

I had a second time shooting with Cariad Celis recently, this time at her home studio. Nothing was too much trouble and she was happy to move things around to accomodate the various parts of the shoot.

Cariad is completely able to pose herself and definitely works well with a photographer. Added to this she is a very pleasant and easy person to work with and the time flew by quickly.

I was very pleased with the results we got from the shoot, I would gladly recommend Cariad Celis to all photographers and would be very happy to shoot with her again at a future date.

Her partner makes an absolutely marvellous cup of coffee too :)

I was really excited to get another chance to work with the wonderful Cariad. We worked at her new home studio. She has put a lot of effort into making it a great space to use and she always has great ideas to make the most of the space, the props and the light. In fact, the natural light was amazing and we used it to great effect for our first set on the day.

Cariad is one of my favourite people to work with. She is everything you would hope for in a model and then some. Most of all, she's a lovely person and working with her is very rewarding.

I couldn't be happier with the images we created and having worked through them, I'm really chuffed with the way they've turned out.

If you haven't worked with Cariad yet, you're really missing out. She is simply awesome!

Thanks Cariad for a great shoot. Already looking forward to the next one :-)

Last month I had a great shoot with Cariad.

During her tour in Europe, she was also in the Netherlands, so I was happy to book this lovely looking woman again. It was the second time I booked her!

The shoot itself was a real pleasure like the first time.

No need to say Cariad is very photogenic and beautiful! Her acting and posing professional!

Besides that is is a great person, charismatic, kind and engaging.

I can really say that it was a very successful collaboration. Have been able to take many beautiful photos.

Highly recommended !!!!

James Box

Arranged a last minute shoot with Cariad while she was on tour recently.

This is a very professional and creative model, stunning beauty, and fun to work with.

If a model is full of creative ideas like you, well that is fantastic, and that was definitely the case here.

Someone so dedicated to what she does, that is a joy to work with.

Needless to say I can highly recommend Cariad, and given the opportunity

would work with her again.

Dirk Colaert

I had a very productive and fun shoot with Caz. She is a very nice person and easy to collaborate with. She thinks together with the photographer and I really appreciated her suggestions. I hope I'll be able to shoot again with her !

Always a pleasure to work with Cariad is an amazing experienced model who can also offer advice when required on camera angles and lighting that best accentuate her body especially when shooting artistic nude images.

For our latest shoot we used Sandon Studio having the run of the whole building. This gave way to a myriad of designs inspired and created by Cariad all with the usual attention to detail to capture stunning images.

Cariad needs no introduction she is a very experienced and talented model who excels in all poses and is outstanding in artistic nude.

We had a full day shoot and as always the ideas and inspiration for numerous sets flowed which are precisely created by Cariad to give awesome images.

Thanks must also go to Kierandahl who assisted us on setting up sets and lighting to make everything work as we wanted.

Cariad is very professional model, fun to work with and a beautiful person who I highly recommend.

I'm looking forward to our next shoot and can't wait to see what ideas transpire next!

Always a pleasure to work with Cariad who is a beautiful person and amazing experienced model who can offer advice on camera angles and lighting that best accentuate her body for the awesome poses she is able to perform especially when shooting artistic nude images.

For this shoot we used the newly completed Home Studio that Cariad and Kierendahl have built to great effect. A number of designs were used created by Cariad with attention to detail to capture amazing images that complemented the poses

Our shoots are aways imaginative which is the result of Cariad's creative imagination that transpire to the final image.

Working in the Studio is conducive to creativity and a number of rooms and garden can be used,

Cariad is fun to work with and very professional and I highly recommend her.

good be working with her again she is one of those models that you just cannot fail to get good images from, lovely poses, brilliant expressions.

already looking at another shoot, 100% recommended, everything about her is 100% + Thanks again Cariad.

When, just a few years ago, I first saw Cariad's portfolio, I knew straight away that she would be one of right models for me. What I never expected however, was for her to become such a true friend.

Since I first met Cariad, she has shown me nothing but kindness, and has always supported and encouraged me as a photographer greatly.

Our most recent shoot, which we again spread out over a couple of days, seemed to feel more like an informal gathering . We found ourselves in the illustrious company of both my mother and the lovely KieranDahl.

Once again, we were blessed with fine weather, and so we shot in the back garden as well as the nearby park in addition to the indoor space.

On set, Cariad is one model whom I can trust implicitly. She never needs any direction. In fact she always comes up with many magical ideas of her own.

Thank you so much again Cariad. See you real soon.

So pleased to have modelled with this absolute gorgeous girl!

It’s been a long time running I have wanted to work with her so as soon as I had an opportunity to offer her a paid collab I snapped her up!

So glad she wanted to work with me and the photographer too, she travelled such a long way to model with us, and I appreicate her efforts!

I really enjoyed her company, she made the shoot a total breeze! She’s very welcoming and chatty, she knows her lighting and lenses! Which is so handy for a newbie photographer or even an experienced to make sure we get the best results ! A team player on every level!

I’d like to continue recommending her to all photographers, muas, models in the industry!

Highly recommended and hoping to work with her on bigger and better things in future

Thanks

🤩

Now this is what I call a perfect shoot! Cariad was superb with pre-comms, creativity and ideas. And I definitely felt like we gelled and shared the same end visions. She's lovely to hang around with, and of course is fantastic infront of the camera. Her home studio is definitely worth shooting in by the way - and it's only going to get better and better!
