Having wanted to work with Carla since pretty much joining PP I had no hesitation in snapping up her recent casting when she was in Birmingham.

I knew she was great from her incredible portfolio, but I realised just how good she is right from the first few shots. I remember looking through my view finder and thinking wow!

We made some awesome images that I can't wait to edit.

I have rarely worked with the same model more than once, but Carla will certainly be one of those. Simply brilliant :-)

I had the great pleasure of working with Carla on Tuesday at her home. It was a great shoot and one that I will remember. She is very Professional, hard working, friendly, approachable and is very patient. I had numerous ideas and I honestly thought I would only be able to cover half of what I wanted to achieve, how wrong was I, not only did I get through all of my ideas we managed to achieve more.

One of the things that impressed me the most was her engagement, we talked through shoots, and what I wanted to achieve and she not only nailed it, she exceeded all of my expectations.

Her home location is great to work in, not only does she have the room, she has a variety of backdrops that can be used inside and outside. I would also point out, although we didn't explore fully, there are great outdoor locations very near the home to shoot at. So if you get the opportunity to work with Carla at her home location I would strongly recommend you do so and make the most of the outdoors.

I definitely want to work with Carla again and I would strongly recommend Carla to fellow photographers. She has a great look, great personality and above all wants to work with you to get the shot you are after.

Don't delay get your shoot booked.

I had a wonderful time working with Carla on a street fashion workshop in Liverpool at the weekend. We got some amazing shots on the day. Carla is very professional, friendly and easy to work with. I highly recommend her and would definitely work with her again.

Thank you for a great shoot.

Having met Carla over two years ago and shooting with her on several occasions since, I was delighted to have the opportunity to shoot with her once again. We spent several hours at my studio and achieved what I consider to be some of my best results yet with this fantastic model. Carla represents in my eyes the totally professional and skilful model who is able to produce stunning work whilst remaining the most delightful, friendly and considerate person to spend a day with photographing.

I would recommend Carla to any photographer of whatever skill level; an absolute must work with model.

Just had another great shoot with Carla at her home in Wiltshire. Carla is an absolutely amazing model. She looks stunning, poses effortlessly, is very professional and is also very friendly and easy to work with. The weather for the shoot was fantastic which meant that we could make the most of the various locations at Carla's home, which provides a great variety of places to shoot.

Carla really is brilliant and is definitely very highly recommended.

What can I say about Carla that has not been seed a hundred times before...?

I got to shoot with Carla at the Paul's Events Wales Weekend for a brief time one afternoon and what a pleasure it was. Not only of course is she absolutely stunning but she is such a lovely, polite, kind and generous person to work with too. Nothing is too much trouble and she works so hard to ensure you get the very best images. Conditions were not perfect yet not once did Carla comment let alone complain, instead she worked tirelessly throughout.

I always love working with Carla and just wish I could do it more often. Very highly recommended as always.

This was my second shoot with Carla, and I was again impressed with her huge range of graceful poses and was friendly, helpful and very easy to work with.

I would be happy to shoot with Carla again, and would recommend her to any photographer.

Despite me turning up late for our photoshoot at Paulsstudio last Saturday, Carla worked very hard to ensure that I got the images that I required. This was the first time I had worked with her and her poses were stunning, she has a great professional attitude, very easy to work with and I look forward to working with her again in the future.

I've been waiting for another opportunity to shoot with Carla since meeting her at the Wales weekend back in May and her visit to Pauls studio gave me the perfect chance. Pre-shoot comms were done via Paul and excellent despite going indirectly so on shoot day she had all the items I'd asked about plus a host of other items which she picked a couple of bits out from as possible accessories or variations which was great.

Carla is a dream to shoot with and can effortlessly pose without direction but also listens to my input & direction and was happy to help me when I asked with feedback from her experience which is great for my development.

Beautiful, easy to work with, great poses, friendly, great outfits, the list goes on, what's not to like.

I just wish I'd booked more than the 2 hours that I did but I'd probably still be thinking something like that if I'd had the whole day.

(Still) Highly recommended and I hope to see you again soon :D

I worked with Carla for the first time at Pauls Studio Uk last Friday. I had seen her in camera magazine articles and loved her look and in real life she did not disappoint. She is easy to work with, happy to experiment and does her best to deliver the image you are trying to achieve. I look forward to working with her again in the future.

This is my first time working with Carla, and I was truly blown away by this lady. In a sentence, she is a star with that X-factor.

Her poses are breathtaking and she has a magnetic presence in front of the camera. I find it impossible to take a bad picture of her. To top it up, she has a wonderful, down to earth personality which makes it a real pleasure to work with her. Thanks for the great session Carla, and I look forward to work with you again!

I had a shoot with Carla at her home recently. Carla is an outstanding person and model and it was a pleasure and privilege to work with her. I look forward to being able to work with her again soon. Thanks Carla for an awesome day.

This week I had a fabulous photoshoot with Carla at her home. She is very professional, and able to adapt to a wide range of styles. Her posing is excellent and she is able to come up with beautiful poses time and time again.

Lovely personality and a delight to work with.

Highly recommended.

This is my third time working with Carla, each time is better than the last. She is very easy to get on with, excellent communication and works very hard to achieve the desired results. It's fairly hard to take a bad image of Carla.

Highly recommended, so much so I will be looking to work with her again when she visits again.

I did my first shoot with a Carla at a recent model day in Scotland. She works to give you great shots and is very easy to get on with. I enjoyed the session and, as is often the case, I learned a little bit more about this fascinating world of shooting models through working with her. I have no hesitation in recommending Carla especially if you are looking for a model who knows just how to interact with the camera to give you super shots. I will be shooting with Carla again in a few months and am looking forward to it.

What can I add to the already glowing references this beautiful lady has. It has already been said before and by better photographers than me that Carl is a delight to work with. The ultimate professional and you could not fail to capture a great image with her even if you were using a pin hole camera and a torch.

Carla has long been on my list of "must work with" models and I now need to create a new list of "Must work with again" models that she can be added too.

Thanks you for the opportunity to work with you Carla and I hope am given the privilege to do so again soon.

Had a shoot a week ago with Carla, a beautiful and professional model. Would strongly recommend her.

Mr Dave

I have worked with Carla a number of times now but this was the first opportunity to work 1-2-1. The shoot was at Carla's home where she was great in guiding me into the world of fashion. It was a very relaxed shoot, trying a number of different outfits, chatting and drinking plently of tea and also reviewing some of the lovely images that we produced. An absolute pleasure to work with...

Will be shooting with Carla again in a few weeks time at the Wales weekend.

Highly recommended.

I had the privilege of working with Carla at a recent Kris Karl workshop.

Apart from her outstanding beauty, you really can not take a bad picture of this women! Carla was extremely pleasant and polite, and also incredibly patient with all attendees of the workshop.

I am definitely eager to work with Carla again, and her versatility makes her suitable for so may genres of work.

I would recommend Carla 100 times over to photographers of all levels! :-)

I worked with Carla at a recent Workshop run by Kris Karl.

She was an absolute delight to work with. Professional, but incredibly friendly and personable, and incredibly hard working. The stunning work in her portfolio speaks for itself, an amazing model.
