Hand on heart the best shoot I ever ever done. Becky is absolutely delightful. Seriously such a lovely person and a really great photographer. So easy and fun to work with too.

Pre shoot communications were excellent and she was there waiting to pick me up at the station. Throughout the shoot she made me feel so welcome, completely at ease and looked after me so well.

Becky has the most incredible collection of clothes and a great sense of style so the styling was spot on, the locations were perfect and everything came together perfectly.

So far I've only seen the shots from the back of the camera, however they look absolutely incredible and if they're anything like the images in her port I'll be pleased as punch!

Thank you so much for today and I am genuinely so looking forward to shooting again.

I had an amazing photo shoot today with Chiaroscoro, who had put up a casting beforehand that I applied for. We discussed beforehand about ideas we could do and she had an amazing wardrobe full of clothes we could use for the shoot. She showed me the photos at breaks during the shoot, and they looked excellent. Not to mention, her horses were well behaved as well whilst we were taking photos with them! If anything looked off Chiaroscoro had no problems with telling me ways to adjust and giving me tips, which I very much appreciated, as I'm always looking to learn and improve my modelling. I had a fantastic time and would very much highly recommend Chiarosocoro.

Well, what can I say? The shoot with Becky at Chiarascoro was arranged fairly last minute, but between us there were just SO many outfits and ideas and energy! :D Great to find a photographer who is as addicted to shopping for shoot clothes as me, and has great ideas and taste! (not to mention taste in interior design!) Becky is a fantastic photographer (and stylist), and not only knows what she wants from her images (composition and overall feel), but also is not afraid to tell you what works and what doesn't! (wahey!) Feel like it was an ultra productive shoot. Highly recommended and hope to work with her again!

Thanks Becky!

Had my first shoot with Becky today.

She was an absolute pleasure to work with, she was really nice and hospitable. She gives really good direction, helped with styling and was very patient as I tried styles I've never done before.

I'm looking forward to our next shoot already.

Had a great shoot with Becky on Wednesday. I love getting involved in Beckys ideas, in which we shot, country farmer, country gent, a menacing monk which was cool. We had a lot of fun shooting that with smoke bombs :-)

Becky is really relaxed, has a good eye for image captures and is awesome to shoot with. It was a windy day, but that didn't stop us and we got some really cool shots :-)

Highly recommended.

Had the most amazing shoot with this lovely lady last week. Becky is so beautiful, warm and welcoming from the second you meet her. Providing you with a lovely cup of tea and biscuits and a nice chat to relax you before the shoot begins.

We did a romantic and fairytale themed shoot. Becky has an incredible eye and is determined to get the most out of you. She has a great understanding and attention to detail and is great at giving you direction and tips. I learnt so much from this lovely lady. I can't thank you enough.

I would recommend this lovely lady every day of the week. I can't wait to shoot with you again! Thank you again becky!

Much love!

Becky is an amazing person to work with! We had been arranging the shoot for a few months and finally managed to get our ideas together! She had plenty of ideas for the shoot, her pre-comms were brilliant and she was kind enough to meet me at the station and drop me back off in plenty of time.

Becky was a lovely, friendly, professional person who makes you feel comfortable and welcome. She also makes sure you are well supplied with coffee and tea! She has a a massive variety of outfits, headdresses and jewellery to work with and plenty of places to shoot for location. She was great with her direction and we got some gorgeous images as a result!

So happy with the images received, can't wait to see the rest! Would 100% recommend her!

Wow.. Becky.. what can I say? Well I applied for a casting that she has done and was over the moon that she'd picked me.. prior to the shoot communications were amazing and Becky was very thorough in what she was wanting to create. I arrived at the fabulous location where there are endless possibilities to create magical shots and was overwhelmed :)

I was amazed at the collection of beautiful outfits and I was spoilt for choice, Becky thinks about everything! It was a magical experience ♥

Becky was helpful and lovely making plenty of tea and had lots of biccies (extra brownie points) she was thoughtful as to how I was feeling and if I got cold to tell her and we'd stop shooting.

We went to a number of locations both at Beckys amazing home and gardens, to a location close by and fields all of which Becky drove to.. We had fun dodging bees and cars and the poses were running freely.

By the time I had got home.. Becky was already on with editing the images and I was amazed by my fairytale shoot results. I would highly recommend Becky to work with and I look forward to working with her again in the future xx

I Had my first shoot with Becky and she was such a delight to work with, so easy going, friendly and full of professionalism. Becky had endless possibilities in regards to costumes and clothing which was very exciting along with her admirable grounds to shoot in. Becky is a true pleasure to work with and with her having a professional dance background like myself we clicked straight away and new exactly what we both wanted to achieve. I loved our little chats and laughs. Such a lovely shoot and I would 100% recommend her to all models. Looking forward to working with you again soon. P.S The end result is stunning images you won't be disappointed. Hugs Skylah xxxxx

I had my 2nd shoot with Becky today and again she was such a pleasure to work with :)

She's so welcoming and makes you feel right at home and she's so easy to talk too and get along with. Becky is a very professional photographer and has a very creative eye and is also great with styling too which is always a big help.

I'm so happy with the shots we got and It generally just felt like I was having a good catch up with a friend and took some awesome pictures inbetween. Such a laugh and can't wait to work with you again :)

Well I don't know where to begin what a fabulous day shooting with Becky.

Her pre comms before the shoot were great we shared ideas and discussed clothing and dresses.

When I arrived at the shoot I instantly felt comfortable and relaxed Becky is lovely she is very caring and friendly, we went through my collection of clothing and went through some of Beckys never ending every girls dream dressing up box, together we created the costumes for the images we wanted to create.

We shot in different outfits at various locations inside and outside Beckys home, it was great to work with a photographer who is a model as she was superb at giving directions.

I am so happy with the images we have created and I will defiantly be booking a shoot very soon with this gem.

Thanks again

Pleasure

Thank you

And highly recommend x

I forgot to leave a reference for becky for November!

I can only repeat what others have said - what a lovely lady and a great photographer.

I have lost count on how many times i have shot with Becky now but it must be at least 6 times now.

I keep going back and she keeps having me back! - has to be a good sign haha

It is honestly like shooting with a friend which makes the shoot so relaxed and enjoyable. Becky always has tea at the ready which is brilliant fuel for a model - other photographers take note :D

I thoroughly enjoyed my first shoot with Becky - she is so welcoming, relaxed and creative!

On arrival we went through the outfits and accessories I had brought, discussed her ideas, she was patient whilst I refined my make-up and hair to match the styles and backdrops she had in mind, with me posing against fabulous autumnal leaves outside, textured doorways, brick walls, and inside the natural light wonderland of her home. The results looked truly stunning!

Becky was friendly and warm throughout, gave encouraging feedback, reviewed images with me as we went along, allowing me to flow through poses confidently. Her modelling experience brings terrific understanding and helpful perspective to the shoot, and her own extensive wardrobe of gorgeous clothing and handmade headdresses is to die for!

Such a lovely lady and a complete pleasure to work with. I would be delighted to model for her again and can certainly recommend her to others :-)

Just had the the wonderful pleasure of shooting with this lovely lady again! Brilliant pre comms again, she arrived at the station early to pick me up, and dropped me off at the end of the day with time to spare.

I got to spend the morning with her beautiful horse Frankie for a gypsy boho look, they may say "never work with animals or children" but I'd certainly work with Frankie much sooner than kids! He is so beautiful, with a whore range of facial expressions (when he was in the mood hehe), we got some beautiful shots under a chestnut tree to match his coat.

After an hour we decided to let Frankie take a break, so we got back in the house to warm up for a bit, before taking some awesome high fashion shots in the stables. Then moving on to some pretty ballet shots against Becky's beautiful windows.

To finish off our day together we got some boudoir and lingerie shots (blimey just realised I managed to keep my clothes on for the whole day!)

Such a fabulous shoot, Becky is still one of my favourite photographers, she's one of the most genuinely nice people (let alone model/photographer) I know, such a relaxed and fun day, and we already have more ideas in the pipeline. Seriously recommended, wonderful woman, and fantastic photographer!

Thanks for another great day,

I had a great shoot with Becky this week. We created some fashion style suited look images with her Aston Martin DB9 :-) What can i say, we rocked the look for that style.

We then captured some urbex, edgy/ fashion images in a derelict building. Throughout the shoot, we had a cracking time, with the weather being right on both locations, it was a very enjoyable and creative shoot.

I was honoured to be Becky's first male model to shoot with and i look forward to the next one.

Highly recommended :-)

Wow what a day! I had the magnificent pleasure of shooting with this incredible woman last Thursdsy! Pre comms were to perfection, and the shoot was arranged and in the books in just three messages, she picked me up early from the train station, and dropped me off later in the day with time to spare for my train home.

We worked through so many gorgeous sets starting with some lovely fashiony flowing dresses outside Becky's stunning home, and with one of the hand made headdresses she created which worked so well against my hair. We then moved on to some beauty and boudoir sets of lingerie, in one of her bedrooms, I must say that I don't think there is so much as an inch of Becky's home that's unshootable! Everywhere is just so gorgeous!

We finished the day off with some art nude/concealed nude shots out in one of her fields whilst the sun was on its way to set, which looked fabulous!

I couldn't have enjoyed the day anymore, Becky is truly fabulous, she knows how to work with natural light, every angle was perfect, she makes her own props and headdresses, with Becky also being a beautiful model she understands what a model looks for in an image as much as from the photographers side so every shot was ultimately feminine as well as strong.

Becky is so relaxed and down to earth to work with, we had several breaks on the shoot, and we're both chatter bugs so I'm surprised we got as many shots as we did. I will certainly be back and hopefully soon!

So would I recommend? In less than a heart beat! It was such a fun day, lots of giggles, beautiful shots, and the time just vanished!

Thank you for a groovy day,

Not sure what number shoot this was but I think at least our fourth!

This shoot we shot on the beach as it was unusually sunny for September! We also shot some looks around becky's home and beautiful bedrooms.

Becky is always the perfect host - with chocolate biscuits which is such a bonus for a hungry model!

Becky is such a lovely lady and I feel like we are now good friends!

110 percent recommend Becky - look forward to our next one!

I shot with Becky for the first time yesterday on an equestrian shoot with her beautiful horses.

Becky's pre-shoot comms were excellent and she kindly informed me of which bus I was able to get and offered to pick me up from the bus stop closest to where she lives. Becky is friendly, kind and so easy to get along with, which makes for a relaxed and fun shoot - she's just as chatty as I am! :)

Becky has an absolutely beautiful home in a stunning location which is the perfect backdrop for any shoot. Becky had lots of fantastic clothing and styling ideas - so many that we weren't able to fit all of them into our 4 hour shoot!

Becky is a brilliant photographer and an equally brilliant person. We're already discussing our next shoot :)

I would 100% recommend Becky as a photographer and i'm so excited to work with her again!

Many thanks,

Rachel xx

My shoot with Becky was my first with a female photographer... Wasn't sure what to expect but it was awesome!

She was friendly, relaxed, so pleasant, focused, complimentary, and she totally got me! She gave directions in a friendly manner (being a model, it was easy for her to spot what worked) and she even came up with a fantastic idea for our next shoot which I'm totally excited about!

It was a test shoot but she's so dedicated she drove out a day earlier and took photos of locations and was full of ideas and suggestions. Thanks again Becky darling! Looking forward to those next shoots Xxx
