Catherine was absolutely fabulous to work with!

Her pre comms were amazing prior to the shoot, I was aware of everything I had to bring and what look we were going for.

Catherine was lovely and friendly straight away, which put me at ease through the whole shoot. We just kept talking and the shoot went so quickly!

Catherine is such a multi talented lady, absolutely brilliant at photography and had some amazing ideas.

I would definitely work with Catherine again and recommend her to anyone.

This was my 1st shoot with Catharine as part of a group shoot at Nikonrich's studio in Kent.

The studio is very professionally set up, I was welcomed with a lovely frothy coffee. I was made comfortable throughout the shoot, being offered food and drinks, and that I was comfortable in my poses etc

The shoot with Catharine was very relaxed, she knows what she wants to achieve in a photo and I love her style of editing. I didn't feel uncomfortable at any point at all during the shoot, I felt looked after and at ease throughout. I can't wait to see the pictures!

I would certainly recommend Catharine to anyone :)

Catherine is just simply amazing. From the start / pre coms to the final good bye she was on point with everything. Pre coms were amazing and I was sent inspirational images to help me pack for the shoot, all VERY creative and original concepts - then when we were at the studio she layed out what she wanted me to wear in order and with what jewellery so the changes were super quick. Catherine let me pose on my own and also gave great direction when needed or when she had a cool shot / pose in mind.

Super friendly and chatting throughout I felt totally comfortable and at ease.

Very highly recommended.

I really enjoy shooting with Catherine yesterday, it was a great pleasure for me!

She was easy going and had a brilliant sense of humour, yet she was fully professional at the same time. She helped me to choose the outfits which worked amazing, I could count on her directions and tips. We didn't have much time to shoot together, but still was able to create something really awesome!

I'm looking forward to see fully edited images.

Highly recommended! :)

Catherine is a star! I had the greatest pleasure of shooting with her yesterday. She is extremely fun to work with but also very professional. From the moment we started talking to the very last minute of our shoot she done everything in her power to make me feel at ease. She sent example images and tips on how to pose correctly before I even arrived, as I am just starting out. She guided me through the entire shoot and made sure I was happy with the results we achieved. I cannot fault her in any way. Just wish we had more time! Thank you for a great day. I would highly recommend her and I hope we can work together again in the future. Can't wait to see the final images! X

I worked with Cat on a shoot last week, and she was lovely! So easy to get along with which made the shoot so much more enjoyable.

We got through a lot of changes and I think we got some really good results!

I have met Catherine a couple of times before on various shoots and was very impressed to see how she directs the models she works with to get exactly what she is looking for. I was fortunate enough to work alongside Catherine yesterday and she was a pleasure to be around. She is one of the nicest people you are ever likely to meet in this business and a true professional. I can highly recommend Catherine to any model and hope to work alongside her on future shoots.

Thank you Catherine x

Fantastic shoot with Catherine the weekend just gone :) we were introduced via a fellow photographer and I'm so glad they did. We were shooting boudoir at my home and I don't think I've ever laughed so much on a shoot! Catherine is professional and diverse and a really great photographer to add we got some awesome shots! Thank you so much for a brilliant day and looking forward to next time :)

I worked with Catherine, shooting with Maria Emberg at Chinastar's place in Kent. she's a bundle of fun, a good laugh and knows what she wants from her shots. I haven't seen the pics yet but I imagine they'll be good ones. :)

I had a fantastic two hour session with Catherine at a London studio last year! I loved working with her and found her full of joy and enthusiasm even though she had just started out with photography. I can happily recommend her to other models without hesitation. I'd definitely work with her again.

Poppy Haskell

I LOVE Catherine! We had a lot of fun on our shoot and she was so easy to chat to and I actually loved the female company! I was already excited to shoot with Catherine after seeing her port and I am so excited to see the final images because we got some stunning stuff! She is beautiful and very talented and I would love to shoot with her again xxx

Catherine and I had messaged a number of times about doing a shoot together. And today we finally got together for a studio shoot. Although it was our first meeting, we got on superbly sharing ideas and I even loaned Catherine one of my L lenses. Catherine is a very warm and friendly person, who has been known to get in front of the camera too. It's also great to shoot with a female photographer with a female's eye too.

I hope we don't leave it too long to shoot again.

Highly recommended :-)

Catherine came to one of our studio events today for a shoot with Poppy Haskell and Esi. Catherine was full of enthusiasm and has a very keen eye, having done some modelling herself in the past. We certainly had a very enjoyable time throughout and hope to see Catherine at another of our organised shoots.

I had my very first photoshoot with Catherine, and the results I got was amazing! We both worked really well she input her own ideas as well as I. We managed to do everything we both wanted due to her quality photography hope to have many more photoshoots with her in the future :-)

I had a great shoot with Catherine near St Pauls tube station.

She was friendly and fun but once she puts her hands on her camera, she was very professional and gave me specific directions of how she wants me to be in the picture.

Overall it was a pleasure working with her and I can not recommend Catherine enough and could not have been happier with the shoot! I am very much looking forward to doing a shoot with her again in the future

Had another two amazing shoots with Catherine last week, one on Tuesday and one on Friday (she never stops!) Despite having a fever she turned up on Tuesday like a trooper and still did a fantastic job and was great company as usual.

On Friday she was equally fab and managed to help keep a big team in order and get amazing shots. (Probably actually two of my favourite shoots to date) Catherine always does such a great job of making all the models feel comfortable and welcome and is not afraid to give her opinions which I love. She also always makes sure everyone gets what they want out of the shoot and of course shows off my designs perfectly!

I had a lovely shoot with Catherine last night and would recommend her without hesitation as a creative and talented photographer and a lovely fun, friendly and warm person! Pre shoot communications were impeccable, and Catherine booked a great studio and a fantastic MUA - we shot a quite a few looks efficiently in a short space of time and the pictures looked fantastic on the back of the camera - excited to see the final version! Till next time xxx

Unfortunately the idea we had for the shoot didn't go ahead due to the female model I arranged not being able to show, we still managed to have a great shoot. It was a warm welcome and made to feel very relaxed. She gives great direction and is a great photographer. I'm looking forward to seeing the pictures from the shoot after we had to pretty much make ideas up on the spot lol! Look forward to working with you again soon as we have already planned a few other ideas for future shoots.
