This was my third shoot with Catarina this year. Every shoot gets better and better.The setup I planned was based on the work of Nineties photographer Corinne Day - heroin chic. Catarina entirely understood the thinking and came up with exactly what I was looking for. To be honest, Catarina always comes up with what I am looking for. The result was very succesful with two stories published almost immediately. One in America and the other in Italy. I always know that when I shoot with Catarina the outcome will always be a cut above. I would definitely recommend working woth her.

Will I book her again? Absolutely! In fact, I have the next shoot planned based on the work of Brian Duffy - Christmas, tuxedo, crackers and cigars. Watch this space!

I arranged a drawing/photo session with Catarina at her home studio - conveniently located in NW London. It went very well.

Communications were good, and Catarina is an excellent model to work with. I would highly recommend her.

I had a terrific session with Catarina. Her house in NW London is a very good shoot location (with outdoor shooting available too) and she had prepared well. We flew through the material I wanted to shoot and moved from one set to another with ease as she had everything ready. She looked great throughout and I am very happy to highly recommend Catarina.

Had a fantastic first shoot with Catarina recently at her home studio.

Catarina is super talented with an amazing look and is a joy to work with. Pre-shoot comms were excellent and she had a nice selection of of clothing and lingerie that complimented my own styling.

We got through several sets during the shoot,shooting in different areas of her home studio and worked together to get images we are both really happy with. On the day I immediately found Catarina easy to get on with. She is totally professional, down to earth,and great to work with . She has a great look, confident, poses naturally without direction,but also responded to direction perfectly.

Catarina is versatile and great fun to shoot with.

I will definitely be looking to shoot with her again

Highly recommended

Had the pleasure of working with Catarina on a home shoot in London.

Excellent model (I do tend towards only working with the best these days) and turned out we had a mutual interest in certain books! Yay!

Communications were great, as is expected, and quality of work is as can be clearly seen on portfolio. If I've taken a bad shot it's because I've done a bad job!.

As it was a home shoot, Catarina's partner was present (but only because of timing and whatever) and they were an excellent assistant, ensuring that the one shot that I needed them for was absolutely spot on. It was. Excellent.

Definitely would work with again!

I had an excellent shoot with Catarina yesterday. She arrived well prepared, with lots of makeup. We shot for several hours in my home, and finished off with an hour at an outdoor location. Thoroughly recommended.

An absolutely amazing model. I booked for half a day, got so many amazing images right from the start. Even though it was a half day the time flew by. Catarina has such a versatile look and vibrant character that you can’t help but want to book again and again. I’m definitely going to book again and recommend other book also.

Brilliant model to work with. I have worked with her twice. First shoot was lovely, she waited for me as I was slightly late due to travel disruption into London, we shot around Barbican area using both analogue and digital. She has versatile look, brilliant modelling skills and incredible style.

Second shoot was shot at a local studio to me at studio 88, we did several sets in the studio and all of which Catarina modelled really well. It was colourful and cool! I am very happy with the outcome of the shoot!

Definitely recommend Catarina to anyone!

I last worked with Catarina four years ago. I didn't know it at the time but I was the first British photographer to work with her. Why haven't I worked with her since? I have absolutely no idea why. A bad decision.

I worked with her last Sunday and it was a very good decision. She is intelligent, creative, responsive, bold, looks gorgeous and is the very best fun to work with.

We worked on two entirely different setups. The first was "sexy and fashiony" the second was much more serious and "arty". She was perfect in both, knew exactly what I was looking for and totally delivered.

A lot of her work is edgy and challenging. In real life she is a very warm person and so easy to get on with.

I have just re-read the above. Maybe it sounds a bit over the top. It really isn't!

If you have ever been in two minds about booking Catarina, don't be. Book her!

Question: What do you call a person who is intelligent, charming, fun to be with? A beautiful, talented profession model? Someone with whom it is a delight to spend a Sunday afternoon? When you arrive home thinking ‘what an amazing shoot’?

Answer: CatarinaCorreia

Recommended without the slightest hesitation.

Finally got to shoot Catarina, after a preCOVID shoot didn't come to fruition.

All went well with the shoot plans however shoot day was when Storm Eunice struck, which made travel difficult to put it mildly.

We did make it to the studio, and had a great shoot. Catarina is great to work with, and we plan another shoot when the weather is better.

Considering all the setbacks the weather brought I still managed to capture some great images -- the show must go on.

My thanks to Catarina for putting up with all the transport problems, and for being such a great model.

Memo to self, when a bitg storm is coming, postpone the shoot!

Highly recommended this very creative model.

I worked with Catarina for the first time. She arrived on time, had a lot of outfits that matched the moodboard that I had created and we shot at the Barbican. Catarina is a wonderful model to work with and I highly recommend her!

Catarina is very photogenic, punctual, communicates very well, and is a pleasure to work with, very highly recommended. A credit to Purpleport.

What a fantastic posing powerhouse this model is!

No fewer than five distinct sets in three hours, all requiring different looks, different moods, and two changes of hair & make-up. Pre-comms were faultless, which is how we managed to hit all those targets with such ease. I'm delighted with the results, and hope to be able to transfer one of the sets that we did to a re-shoot on location when weather and circumstances allow.

Amazing shoot with Cat today. Another fun day , so easy to work with, so bubbly and a fantastic model, already thinking about the next shoot, book her! x

Cat has been a professional model for many years and it really shows.

Her posing is excellent and she takes direction really well, always adjusting perfectly into positions she knows will work well. Not only this but every pose looks powerful, and not at all stiff or awkward.

She was fantastic with reviewing my moodboard and ideas at length before the shoot, coming prepared with perfect makeup and executing the emotion I was looking for perfectly. Cat was very engaged and some of the best photos came from her own suggestions.

Highly recommended.

I asked Catarina to shoot for one of my projects and her pre-comms were excellent, not only is she very natural in front of camera but both fun and easy to work with. Highly recommend Catarina to work with.

We produced a lot of very high quality images so would absolutely work with her again.

Bottom line is the first time I ever shot with Cat, the images ended up in print all over our living room wall and on our website. So to get a chance to work with her again was an opportunity not to be missed.

Simple things impress me with Cat and that boils down to speed of communication, professionalism and punctuality on the day and that’s before we get to the modelling bit! As for the shoot itself - just superb. She was fun to work with, personable, highly professional, came fully prepared and delivered everything I could ask for. She is fantastic and will be booking her again.

Absolutely 100% recommend.
