I hadn't worked with CTE for a couple of years and it was great to work with her again. Out of all of the models I've worked with i find that I'm at my most creative best when i'm with Chiara!

We shot at her home on the south coast which has some really cool sets to explore. We also made use of the local beach for some awesome sunset bikini shots.

Always a pleasure to shoot with Chiara. Since we both were going to be in London for the PP social, I arranged to have a shoot with Chaira in the afternoon beforehand as I'd got a new bit of kit, a camera flash as I want to improve in this area, and I couldn't have thought of a better model to try it out with as there wasn't any pressure to produce any images and if I didn't get any usable results on my part then it was a fun shoot to have and catch up with Chiara. After testing the new bit of kit, we tried some beauty dish work with the studio flash kit as Chiara is always full of creative ideas and we got some amazing shots in a shoot that was fun and creative as always with Chiara.

Showed up and didn't get her knob out. Recommended.

Also, created some fabulous images with me and as always just snaps into poses like she was born to it. Chiara is an accomplished photographer herself so she is always happy to suggest improvements to the set up and lighting that help enhance the shoot,

I'm not sure if I love or hate this woman. Anyone who can take selfies that are better than my shots really gets my goat!

Seriously, I was SO lucky to work with Chiara again, this time at Studland shooting her & Natural Happy Woman together. We also squeezed in a few one to one shots, & I'm so pleased she was out of her "retirement", for a while at least.

She is still patient enough to give me even more pointers on how to improve my work, & I feel I owe much of my skill (if you can call it that) to her.

Unable to recommend highly enough.

This was my first shoot with Chiara at the wonderful Studland Bay House, my second visit to the location. I had been keen to work with Chiara ever since we both attended a Walter's Wardrobe event.

Chiara is a hugely experienced, naturally creative and imaginative model, but also a retoucher and photographer and her broadly based talents shows so clearly in her professionalism and her work.

Our exchanges before the shoot were all were fun, friendly and supportive. Chiara was already at Studland when I arrived, all prepared and ready to go. Chiara's lovely, bubbly personality makes the shoot both fun and productive. She is also highly supportive, offering ideas and suggestions if the photographer is receptive.

I am so glad I was able to work with her before she stops modelling completely. I have no hestitation recommending Chiara and if you haven't work with you yet, you should.

Thank you for a much enjoyed morning Chiara.

Cheryl stepped in last minute for a shoot after my model pulled out. She is still as amazing as ever, absolute diamond. Helped with styling ideas as well as being a perfect model. Thank you again bird xx

Just had another great shoot with Chiara, I can't recommend her enough to everyone. She knows instinctively where the light is and how to twist and turn that little bit here and there to get the best out of each pose. Every time we meet up we have such a laugh throughout the shoot and I always learn so much from her.She has already edited some of the shots we took which I find amazing as I am still looking through them trying to decide which to use. She is having a break from modelling but when she feels up to shooting again I will definitely be one of the 1st in the queue to work with her again.

I had worked with Chiara at a lighting workshop and had wanted to do a 'proper' shoot with her ever since. She is totally awesome as a model and as a human being and I'm very proud of the work we produced together and of our friendship.

I will certainly work with her again and can recommend her unreservedly.

Thank you for a fantastic afternoon :)

I have known Cheryl for years and have socialised on many occasions causing total havoc wherever we went!

I have always wanted to shoot this girl, who I must say, is totally A-MAZING!! Cheryl has a body to die for, knows how to pose without any direction and creates image after image.

Our two hour shoot turned into an all day shoot with so many amazing ideas, they just kept flowing.

A very creative lady. I can not recommend Cheryl highly enough. I am sure we will be working together many times again.

Big love and you nailed it bird :) xx

I had the pleasure and privilege of working with Chiara on an outdoors shoot in Sussex.

Our communications beforehand were prompt and courteous, and on arrival she presented me with an appropriate selection of clothes, from which we chose outfits together. We then headed off to a small village, located on the South Downs; where we strolled about, finding suitable backdrops and opportunities using the natural light.

Chiara is a very accomplished model and photographer, and one of the true greats. She’s also a modest, down to earth, all round lovely person, and we enjoyed a good rapport.

She’s a great teacher, imparting many ideas and pearls of wisdom, including the best use of light, for which I am truly grateful. I had an issue with a default setting on my camera, and Chiara even took the time to research it and find the solution!

We had a lovely shoot in a beautiful location, resulting in many great images. Thank you and best wishes.

I really don't know what to add that has not been said before about this wonderful creative lady.

Chiara is so full of ideas that working together on a shoot with her becomes almost instinctive.

We had discussed some ideas for our shoot well in advance and everything fell into place creating some, I feel wonderful images on the day.

Work with her while you can. Nothing less than a 100% recommendation.

I had an excellent shoot with the amazing Chiara, who is a model at the top of her game, also a photographer and general creative genius. To say she's professional is an understatement, if you work with Chiara with are guaranteed to get everything you needed for the shoot, and so much more. She does poses, expressions, helps with angles and lightning, framing, and even hunts for spots where you might get natural lens flare. That plus the yoga and chats about Rachmaninoff make it the full experience.

This shoot was at the perfect Hacienda Studio London which is pretty much my 1st choice work destination from now on.

Yesterday I had the pleasure of having a couple of hours of fun with Chiara...

there’s no need to say anything about her professional approach and capabilities, she’s tops at what she’s doing full stop.

I am glad that she accepted to take part on one of my crazy ideas, and as soon as we started it was difficult to establish who was more into it pushing each other full on to make it happen...

Thanks again and we will definitely do it again with a full team.

What Can I say that hasn’t already been said hundreds of times. Chiara is the consummate professional in all that she does. She is generous with her time, and if like me you need help from time to time she is patient and a fantastic teacher. Photographers and new models alike could learn so much from working with this wonderful lady. What more could you wish for, a stunning model, stylist, make up artist and to cap it all a fantastic photographer in her own right. I would encourage anyone to work with Chiara, as you will have a blast, meet a wonderful human being and get some fabulous images.

100% highly, absolutely, thoroughly recommended. Just fantastic.

I had a fantastic shoot with Chiara at the Hacienda, she is a stunning person who is full of laughs and good ideas. Her dresses are awesome, and since she's a capable photographer as well she's very helpful with lights, suggestions and feedback. This made it a very productive session indeed. I had a great time and will definitely try to arrange another session with her. Thanks Chiara!

Had a fantastic shoot with Chiara last week at The Hacienda. She is a wonderful model and poses beautifully. She is very generous with her knowledge and experience and I learnt much from her about working with a model and different sorts of lighting. We had a great time and we produced some images I am very proud of. I am looking forward to working with her again.

Wow! What an amazing woman! Cheryl happened in London and I snapped up the opportunity to be shot by her last-minute. Everything from pre-comms to the shoot was smooth and perfect. She was so incredibly organised - her moodboard also consisted of a full blown, play-by-play schedule and outfit/ hair/ makeup description - the most organised moodboard ever! It was amazing :)

The plan was street fashion shots on the streets of East London for possible publication - and that's exactly what we did! Cheryl arranged for the lovely HMUA Gem to join us and for us to get ready at the Hacienda studio; everything was thought of. When we made it to the streets, perfectly styled in th outfits Cheryl had picked out, and she was so wonderfully considerate of the biting cold her models were experiencing in them... But it was all worth it when I got to look at the back of the camera, because the shots were stunning - I cannot wait to see them after they have been through Cheryl's post-processing magic!

Cheryl herself is an amazing, bubbly, creative person whose work (both as a photographer and a model) speaks for itself. She is absolutely brilliant and I highly recommend her.

I am so blessed to have gotten to work with Cheryl! I hope to do so again, maybe next time in a duo :O

Thank you for inviting me to work with you, you legend!

First of all I must appologise for a very late reference I have now worked with this beautiful young lady on 5 or 6 occasions and every time we produce images I'm really prowd of. I just love her input on shoots and the hard work she puts in to every shot. I just wish she lived a bit closer to me so that I could shoot with her more often, but hoprfully we will get to work together again soon

I had the great pleasure of working with Cheryl on a waterborne shoot.

Throughout she was a true star - the weather wasn't optimal but she delivered excellent images nonetheless.

Cheryl is bright, intelligent, poised and highly professional with a great physique, lovely hair and glowing skin - the camera simply loves her and it is probably very difficult to take poor shot of her.

Able to pose freely or take direction well, I highly recommend her to all levels of photographer
