I think Carla's amazing modelling ability and work ethic needs very little explanation with the wealth of great feedback and stunning images she has. A true professional!

It was an absolute pleasure to have you in the studio and see the way you worked. It'd be great to have you back someday!

I worked with Carla again yesterday at one of Mick Payton's events and what can I say that her images don't show and 722 references (all positive) haven't already said? Simply one of the very best! Thank you Carla ..... I feel a trip to Swindon coming on! :)

It was a so lovely to see Carla again yesterday. We shot for a few hours in the New Forest with another photographer (Sue Sibley - not on PP) and the results are stunning!

Carla has this wonderful ability to read a location and adapt her modelling so as to bring out the best in it :-)

She is always a delight to spend time with - pre-shoot comms excellent, punctual, great company, lovely shaping, beautiful outfits.

I always wonder after a shoot with Carla why I don't work with her more often! She is a 'top drawer' model and very highly recommended.

Thank you Carla :-)

Had the opportunity to work with Carla today at her guest day at The Hacienda. It was great working with Carla on several different outfits and locations within The Hacienda. Carla had a great selection of outfits, suggestions for outfits and produced some amazing poses as well that we captured. It was a relaxed and fun shoot that went by quickly, but we still had time to review images on both the camera and the laptop during breaks.

I can highly recommend Carla and hope that I get to work with her again in the future.

My second time working with superb Carla & what a truly fantastic afternoon's shooting. Carla readily adapts from one theme to another, utilising her extensive wardrobe & moving effortlessly from one pose to another, needing little or no direction. I really appreciated Carla's ideas & throughly professional input into the shoot. In summary Carla is a true delight to work with, being relaxed, chatty & funny & I cannot recommend Carla too highly-simply fantastic & exceptional.

Had a wonderful relaxed shoot with Carla recently in Manchester. We did a 60's theme and I thoroughly enjoyed my brief time with this lovely lady who certainly knows what she's doing in front of the lens.

Carla is very professional and has an eye for detail as well as being good fun to work with. I would certainly love to work with her again on my next trip to the UK and hopefully it won't be too long in the making.

Highly recommended and don't let the opportunity slip by if you get chance to shoot with Carla. Thanks Carla!

Another amazing weekend with this beaut!

After much success from the last Carla organised another sixties weekend where i was the second model. Flattered that she asked me again, i jumped at the chance and would do it over and over. She is one of the nicest people i have had the pleasure of meeting and working with in this industry and her kind nature and infectious personality shows she is just as beautiful on the inside as on the out. Modelling to her looks effortless and you cannot get a bad shot of her. If you have not had the chance to work with Carla yet i strongly recommend you get booking as you'll be hard pushed to find anyone better. Thank you for another amazing weekend. I loved it! x

There is very little that I can say about Carla, that has not been said by better photographers than me.

I shot her as part of her second group shoot of the day, she retained her energy, her willingness to work hard for the required image and she is a model I would love to work with again.

I had the delightful pleasure of shooting with Carla at the NGCC photographic studio in Dublin.

Carla is the most professional and friendliest of models. (Deserving of her superb reputation.) She worked closely with the team to ensure we captured the images we sought - truly fantastic.

I look forward to getting the opportunity to work with Carla again. (Soon I hope!)

Carla came to our studio in Dublin for a weekend of small group shoots and a one-to-one with yours truly.

I'd followed Carla's work for quite a while and when I finally got the opportunity to work with her I wasn't disappointed!

She's a top professional, great to work with and really knows her stuff. She certainly makes it easy to get good photographs. Carla pulled off a great variety of looks and managed to give everyone who attended over the weekend something unique.

I was certainly delighted to have had the chance to work with Carla and am happy to recommend her without hesitation.

This being the 708th positive reference for Carla, it is hard to say something that hasn't already been said. So I will go with this. Carla has is an internationally published model with hundreds of references and a fantastic reputation for a reason.Stunning look, fantastic modelling ability and lovely to work with.

I'll leave it there.

My third shoot with Carla at Map was just as enjoyable as the previous two. Carla is very easy to work with and has the highest levels of professional modelling skills. This time we shot some 35mm film and Carla worked well with the slower workflow required but as soon as I swapped to digital she adapted straight away and went back to a faster workflow.

Carla can work with any level of experience and if you are new or want to improve your model photography then she is particularly recommended.

Highly recommended

Carla is one of the best models out there. Super positive, easy to get on with and gets the best out of a photographer.

This was my second shoot with Carla and we worked on some fashion & fashion nude. The results are exactly what I had hoped for.

I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Carla again.

I had the privilege to work with Carla for the 2nd time.

Last time I shot Carla was 3 years ago, why I left it so long I have no idea.

Carla had a studio day at Map Studio's and was kind enough to stop behind for a 3 hour shoot we me.

Carla is so beautiful and figure is awesome very hard to get a bad shot.

We worked through portraits to fashion, fashion nude, art nude and finally lingerie.

Carla's makeup and nails were done to professional standards, she poses effortlessly and also takes direction well. Our banter continued throughout the shoot.

A complete pleasure to work with, hoping to book in another session soon.

Thanks Syd

Ahh the delightful Carla - a mix of Amanda Holden, Brigitte Bardot, Jean Shrimpton.. all in a unique Carla blend!

Tried an experimental (for me!) technique, and Carla made it work really well. So comfortable to work with her, she is everything you could want in a model, and looks terrific.

five stars, full marks 10/10

Having thoroughly enjoyed my tutorial with Carla and Adrian in early August, I was very fortunate to squeeze in a second session with this phenomenal couple.

This time we worked through more examples of single lighting, Adrian making the subject so easy to understand and execute, whilst having the joy of having Carla as my model! Sheer perfection!!

The chemistry between this duo is infectious, there is such a massive respect for each other’s skills that the whole experience is beyond real description, other than a must to do.

I’ve just returned from a shoot, putting into practice, doing my homework so to speak, my confidence was greatly enhanced and the results were regularly praised by my model.

I can’t thank the team enough for their superb hospitality, for making me feel so welcome and above all for teaching me so much.

Had a wonderful themed event shoot with Carla today. As I had wanted to work with her for a long while, I was really looking forward to it. Carla was excellent to work with, and made my work as the photographer as easy as it can be. The event was well organised, we had plenty of time wo work with Carla in each set, and the props, clothes and makeup we excellent for the theme. I could not fault anything in the whole day, so thank the team for making it so good.

As a model Carla was so easy to work with, we discussed how and where, I asked for a few poses which Carla did superbly, and the rest was getting a rhythm with Carla providing great poses, and me trying to mess up my side and capturing them.

Highly recommended the event and Carla as a model. I am looking forward to our next shoot.
