Carla is just enchanting, I have no doubt that I will be shooting with her again soon. 100% versatile and just on point with everything she does. I don't think I could of invested 3 hours any better way. Thanks again Carla for all your hard work and time.

What a wonderful hour spent with Carla this afternoon. I got some of the best shots that I have taken. She moves from one pose to another with no problem, also takes ideas on board and improves on it.

Thanks for everything, and your hard work. John

I had a very short but extremely productive shoot with Carla today at Fine and DanDee Studio. I have wanted to work with Carla for quite some time and I wasn't disappointed. She is a fantastic model to work with, very talented and professional and absolutely stunning so I have achieved some great images. Carla is easy to work with, and really helped me to achieve the style of images I wanted.

This was my first shoot with Carla, but certainly won't be my last. I would highly recommend her to all photographers.

I had my 1st shoot with Carla today at a Studio day at Fine and Dandee.

Although it was a short shoot, I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Carla is very professional, naturally beautiful and very easy to work, and chat with; she works very well with or without direction.

With a quick look through the images, I know I have got the shots I was looking for!

Would love to work together again sometime!

Totally recommended by me!

Thanks Carla!!

We had a planned shoot at Carla's home studio last week. Pre-shoot comms were excellent and we discussed ideas and thoughts for what we were going to try to achieve.

When I arrived I was provided with a lovely cuppa and Carla was fully ready and had done her hair and make-up perfectly for the looks we were shooting.

As usual I wanted something slightly different and the looks were not necessarily Carla's 'normal' style and involved her acting somewhat to get the shots we were after. Needless to say, Carla is a consummate professional who took everything easily and effortlessly in her stride. She is a chatty, easy to get along with person who's happy to give her ideas and understands the 'look' required really quickly.

We got the three shots we were after and threw in a couple of beauty shots as well. I'm really excited to get processing the final images as the raws look amazing!

Will definitely work with Carla again, she is fantastic, warm, friendly and of course, beautiful. Thank-you for being ace Carla! Till next time!

Had a shoot at Carla's home. Carla is such an easy going person, great to work with and stunning to shoot. Pre shoot communication was really good and the whole shoot went smoothly.

It's a good location with some really nice natural light options. Just gone through the first edits and there are some real gems!

Carla is a fantastic and professional model, thoroughly recommend her and hope to shoot with her again.

I had my first shoot with Carla a couple of days ago at Coco Studios, why did I wait so long??

Carla is a wonderful model, very easy to get along with and helped create a relaxed atmosphere for shooting in, something I always hope for. Her portfolio shows how versatile she is and she seems to have an inexhaustible range of poses to suit whatever style you're shooting.

I am happy to recommend Carla to any photographer, our first shoot definitely won't be our last.

worked with Carla on her model day at Co-Co studios. Beautiful model with flawless skin tones and an excellent arrangement of natural poses needing no direction. Looking forward to working with Carla again. Highly recommended.

My first, and hopefully not my last time working with Carla confirmed my thoughts that she really is a top class model. She poses effortlessly and easily brought my sketchy ideas to life. Professional in every way Carla is also fun to work with and is always ready for a laugh. If you’re looking for an exceptional model then your search should stop here! It is impossible to recommend Carla highly enough.

Carla is probably one of the best models I have ever worked with. She is what I would describe as a true professional. I cannot speak highly enough of her but suffice to say all photographers should have a Carla Monaco image in their collection!

During a one on one workshop Carla was a dream to work with. I've admired her work for years from the US and during my recent trip to the UK FINALLY got a chance to shoot with her. An amazing experience and a wonderful addition to my portfolio. Thanks, Carla!

This was my forth shoot with Carla, this time a studio shoot at Upper Mills Studio. The pre-shoot communication was excellent and Carla was already at the studio with a great range of outfits when I arrived. Carla is a beautiful and highly experienced model and delivers fantastic pictures. She has fantastic poise and a great range of expressions for stunning portraits. Carla is professional and gives her all to each shot. I found Carla to be thoughtful and constructive when reviewing a set of pictures, she is fun to work with and the time flashed by. I am looking forward to a future shoot and highly recommend Carla.

Thank you

Definitely very highly recommended and I certainly hope to work with her again..

I had a fantastic shoot with Carla Sunday and came away with so many beautiful shots. Carla is a fabulous model who takes direction well but also works very well without direction. On more than a few occasions she adjusted pose just as I was about to suggest it. I would definitely recommend Carla as a great model to work with and would hope to work with her again in the future.

It has been an honour to work with such a super model. I really hope our paths cross again.

A very good shoot with Carla, a highly talented model, versatile and adaptable, able to take direction and bring my ideas to fruition. Fabulous figure and wonderful portraits, One of the best models around.

Carla is on that list of models that you just know is going to do an amazing job. I had also shot briefly with Carla at a fashion event last year. I don't normally arrange shoots "on-spec" however when Carla let me know she was up this way, I knew it was a great opportunity to try out some of the more complex ideas I have in my backlog.

Carla is every inch the hard working professional, completely down to Earth and easy to engage with, and has a tonne of experience. She instantly understood each look I was going for and executed the costume and make-up to suit. We packed a load of different things into a 5 hour shoot and this is only possible if your model can pose with ease. Carla can rattle off poses around the basic direction, faster than I can shoot them :)

I had a great day working with Carla and wholeheartedly recommend her.
