I had my first shoot with Carla today at her home location. It's a great set up with plenty of lighting and modifiers.

Carla's pre shoot comms were excellent.The shoot was only for two hours,but we managed to pack lots in.We shot beauty and Carla changed her look several times for a good variety of images.We then shot some nice natural light art nude style.

I am very impressed with the images we created.

Carla is a joy to work with,and I will definitely be booking her again soon.

Very highly recommended by me.

Thank you Carla.

My second shoot with Carla at home, and once again a delightful experience. Carla's fabulous looks and fluid posing style are a given (500+ positive references are well deserved!) - she knows how to use every space and angle to get the perfect pose, whether nude or wearing something from her beautiful wardrobe.

Always a pleasure to shoot and to be with. Highly recommended to all - thank you, Carla. With a warm welcome also from Adrian, Wicket and Stumpy, what more could I want?

Look forward to next time...

An Eye for Beauty

My 7th shoot with the lovely Carla, who is well established as one of my most favourite models. Again we shot at her place, both outside with apple blossom at its most profuse, and inside - concentrating on beautiful soft and gentle images, one of her many genres. Always welcomed with open arms, it is a joy to work with Carla, and to meet up with Adrian, plus the cats who each managed a photobomb! After some beautiful work together we joined with Nicky Phillips - I had already had a shoot with her - and did some simple nude duo work framed in the front door. All in all an excellent shoot. I will be back, Carla. Thanks again. x

Had another great shoot with Carla yesterday.

Did a location shoot in a nearby Bluebell field. Carla had a variety of outfits and was amazing as usual. More than capable of posing on her own undirected and always ensures she creates the right poses for photographer.

Cannot recommend Carla enough and have already discussed another shoot.

Highly recommended and thank you x

Just back from shooting this fabulous young lady again! This time in Barcelona, where she managed to keep a small group of us happy for 48 hours, dodging dodgy weather and getting us some great shots in the process! An absolute star, totally recommended!

Thanks, Carla! Here’s to next time… again :)

Another excellent shoot with Carla! I wanted to do more natural light and outside shooting and Carla found some wonderful locations complete with bluebells in season. A great shoot with some stunning results, share-a-shoot to follow. I cannot recommend Carla highly enough, very strong poses with minimal direction, very professional and easy to work with. Also had time to fit in some fashion location shots around her home studio. Thanks also to Adrian for helping with the logistics and general advice.

Highly recommended.

I worked with Carla on a commercial shoot last week. It’s been said before but she is a super talented model and a pleasure to work with. Lovely personality, looks great and all combined with a fantastic work ethic. Using a model this good is like cheating :) Very much looking forward to working with her again soon.

My second shoot with Carla on Friday April 7th. she's simply the best. Professional, easy going, hits every pose on the nail, and most importantly so much fun to work with. Thanks Carla - can't wait to do it again

A second duo shoot in 3 days with Carla. This time with CharlieeRose at Carla's home.

Every time I work with Carla, she goes up in my estimation, both as a model and a person. Charliee is relatively inexperienced and hadn't really shot a duo like this before. There were ome signs of nerves, inevitably, but Carla was brilliant, making her feel welcome and bringing the best out of her with gentle encouragement all day. The two of them together were magical and the images are fabulous.

Carla, thank you so much for making this a really successful and enjoyable day. Hope to shoot again soon!

Every time (which is not often enough) I shoot with Carla I just want to pack her in my camera bag and take her home with me at the end of shoot. She's just so lovey! This time we shot a duo with Artemis Fauna @ the Natural Light space. A combination made in heaven! Our time flew by and I can't wait to shoot her again. Carla's also a good navigator: I still don't know how you found that petrol station Carla :)

This was a two hour duo shoot at the Natural Light Spaces, with Carla modelling alongside Artemis Fauna. Pre-shoot comms were good, with a couple of ideas bounced around and fleshed out. The shoot itself was very productive; Carla has a flowing posing style requiring very little direction, she has a great understanding of working with light, and she gave each concept 100%. I look forward to the opportunity of working with Carla again! Fully recommended.

DaveEdwards

Another brief but enjoyable encounter with a model I never tire of shooting - the one and only Carla! As usual, Carla was on great form, working a duo day with Artemis and also as usual, far too many great images were created!

Totally recommended by me! Thanks for a great shoot, Carla! Here’s to next time :)

Artemis Fauna

Three days with Carla- oh lucky me!

What a joy spending time with her can be.

She is one of the nicest people you could find

Listening patiently to me while I talk about what's on my mind.

She is a superb model, don't you know!

Booking her for a shoot will be no blow.

Stunning beauty, elegance and grace

Oh boy, have you seen her pretty face-!

She is one of the best

I really do feel blessed

To call her my wonderful friend

From now until the end! :)

In my opinion, the most classically beautiful model on PP, with the talent to guarantee fabulous images anytime, anywhere, but it is her enchanting, engaging and calming personality that makes Carla such a joy to work with. If she's around, the world is just a great place!

A super duo shoot with the amazing Artemis Fauna at Natural Light Studio.

Working with Carla is a dream. Easy, no fuss, chatty, positive, professional and patient. All elements which contribute to a stress free session and this combined with a lovely personality, makes the time just fly along. Looking forward to our next session and some really dramatic landscapes later in the year.

Top10 charming,brilliant model. Already on my "got to work with again soon" list.

I worked with Carla for the first time yesterday in her home and in woods nearby, a mixture of implied and nude work in natural light, which I am not so practiced in.

The shoot was easily organised and her directions to her home spot on. Carla certainly lives in a delightful part of the country.

Right from our first meeting, Carla was friendly and relaxed and quickly put me at ease while we discussed our plans seeing the promised sunshine (and warmth) had not yet materialise. Carla was keen to understand what I was seeking to achieve and we worked easily and collaboratively together to get the best out of our shooting time. She is a delight to work with and talk to.

Carla is one the world's true natural beauties, in the classical Hollywood sense. Her experience is obvious the moment you start to work with her. Her posing seems effortless, you learn quickly that with each click of the shutter next pose is already planned and ready in an instant. The shapes she produces are divine.

As has been said in other References, Carla is so professional that it is only the photographer's own mistakes with the camera that stop every picture taken being a delight.

Total recommended, Carla well deserves to be on everyone's 'Want to Work With' list.

Carla thank you for making this a most enjoyable and productive shoot.

477 positive references! What can I say about Carla that has not already been said.

I met her for the first time when she held a studio day at Sandon Studio I had a few ideas on what I wanted to achieve and Sandon was the perfect place. Carla did not disappoint a true professional and stunningly beautiful if allowed to add.

Would I recommend? Do I need to just look at her work above! So yes 100% and I hope personally that I get a chance very soon to work with her again.
