Had a wonderful day with Chris.

Safety, Dignity, Respect of the model and Professionalism are not only words for him and he applied them on all the length of the shoot (not sure if it's correctly said, lol). Had few breaks to be fed and hydrated. Chris is also a good coffee maker!!!

Communication was excellent prior and after the shoot, so was the organisation and locations.

I can't wait to see the pictures and to work with Chris again. He is highly recommended.

This was our first shoot, it was a dance and art nude style with a mix of amazing locations thanks to Chris. The shots were spectacular and we worked well together to create bold meaningful images.

He's very open to the model's ideas and the shoot was extremely easy going and we booked the next shoot soon after! (:

Chris has retouched many photos for me, and I've been delighted with the results every time. Highly recommended.

Fantastic photographer, all round great human being! Turned up exactly on time, fully prepared for the day, and with a brilliant and very warm manner. He thought of everything ahead of time! I felt completely comfortable to speak with him about ideas, how we were going to shoot, etc. The shoot therefore went very well indeed.

HIGHLY recommend this gentleman! :)

Shoot number 3 with ChrisD :-)

As usual with Chris, I expected and experienced professional treatment, communications and excellent results.

Chris is consistent, considerate, chilled out, creative and a great guy to shoot with. He's very patient with people and also with the process of shooting, which can sometimes take a while, taking great care to get just the right shot.

Sometimes it like working with a sniper! He gets everything lined up and then 'bang' - he gets the shot in one. Inspiring!

Thanks Chris - a pleasure as always.

I had my second shoot with Chris, and wowee what a shoot!

I was surprised and extremely excited when Chris mentioned the waterfall shoot at the end of our last one together, and immediately set about trying to make it work!

Chris spent a long time making arrangements for myself, Charlie Wild and another photographer to make our way down to Waterfall Country.

The preshoot comms were as ever, exemplary, and on the day Chris was a huge super star trekking across miles of land with all of his equipment, making sure that we (models) were more than ok at every step, and stepped in when hypothermia became a potential problem to make sure that I was ok, happy and healthy.

I look forward to seeing the contacts and edits, and imagine that they'll be as every bit as brilliant as Chris himself!

This was the third time i've worked with Chris and he always makes me feel very comfortable and I love working with him. This time we were doing something new to me, some rope bondage, and he and Mo took care of me and made me feel entirely at ease. Highly recommend this man, he's got an amazing eye for the perfect picture.

2nd shoot with ChrisD who did not disappoint :-)

Chris made all arrangements with our model and as expected was great with pre-shoot comms.

After collecting us both, he drove us to the location and went through his simple and clear pre-shoot checks, making sure again that everyone was clear about safety, communication, levels, respect and expectations for the shoot.

We then shot a few sets using our location really well and making great use of the changing light during the day which produced some fabulous shots.

As well as being a great guy and excellent photographer, Chris has a very relaxed attitude and great sense of fun - he's also well prepared for all eventualities, including food, refreshments and various supplies you just might need when out in the middle of nowhere!

Thanks Chris - highly recommended :-)

This was such an amazing shoot! Going out into fields to produce some wonderful images even though it was so cold.

Chris's pre-communications were amazing once again and the ideas developed last time worked so well.

Through the shoot he was very chatty which made it go so quickly!

I can't recommend working with Chris enough.

Had an amazing 1st shoot with Chris today.

Pre communications were excellent. He was very professional and respectful, making sure I was comfortable at all times. He has a natural gift for photography and the back of the camera images looked stunning.

Overall all, it was a really fun, creative urban ballet shoot and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Would 100% recommend and would love the opportunity to shoot again.

Thanks, Ellie :)

I couldn't have asked for a better shoot!

To begin with Crhis is the same as me where we both feel that strong comms lead to a brilliant shoot, and did it ever! With Chris's forsight of arranging a shoot plan that had built in contingencies I knew exactely what I needed to bring and what I needed to study in advance for ideas.

On the day itself Chris met me at the station with a big smile and a pre-brief regarding the shoot, H&S, expectations etc. despite the fact my first train was cancelled!

We then got underway to our first location, at each location we discussed the appropriate wardrobe, style and theme so that we were able to instantly start producing some amazing images. We went to a multitude of locations thereafter, with Chris's knowledge and experience proving invaluable in regards to creating a huge range of pictures.

A fabulous man who I feel 100% comfortable around, and will be rebooking with immediately!

I had my first shoot with Chris yesterday on a farm, this was with another model and fabulous rigger Ropesta, he was a delight to work with and very respectful and knowledgeable. We had fun throughout the shoot and came up with some unique ideas that have produced some stunning images!

Chris is also very thoughtful and kind, he has everything a model could possibly need - especially for a location shoot!

We all got on incredibly well so the time went far to quickly! We will have to shoot again soon :)

Highly recommended - an utter professional and true gent.

My first full shoot with Chris after many months (years!) of talking about working together :-) went very well.

Chris is a true pro - very experienced as is obvious by his thorough pre-shoot communications, on location checks for safety and suitability for our needs, and also his detailed but brief conversation with our models on the essential points for a location bondage shoot.

We had a lot of fun and created some fantastic shots, with Chris clearly asking for what he needed to get the shot just right.

Great flexibility and openness to all ideas resulted in solid teamwork and excellent results.

We have more shoots booked already... :-)

Worked with Chris again on a photoshoot at the beginning of the week. The shoot was on an amazing location, the most interesting location I have worked on, and Chris even gave a little history lesson !

Chris had a unique vision and knew what he wanted out of the location. His use of various spots on the location, excellent knowledge of lighting and his creative thinking made for many sets of fantastic images. I had a hard time trying to decide which are my favourites as there are so many strong and beautiful images that stood out to me!

Chris is professional, polite and fun to work with. He really knows what he is doing. Always a pleasure to work with.

another great shoot on at another great location...well one we had visited before but that doesn't make it any less spectacular. this time we had bit of a change of style but Chris proved his versatility and I thourally enjoyed myself. infarct, we worked so well together and came up with so many ideas that we didn't realize it had got to 8pm already

Chris is always very respectful of everyone, really knows his lighting and gives great direction when needed and is full of praise and encouragement where it is due. i also really enjoyed the fact that as well as letting me come up with ideas, he took the time to explain what he was doing and why helping me to get a better understanding of what goes on his side of the camera so that we could work together to come up with concepts and styles we were both happy with.

ps, please say thanks to Basil Brush for sweeping all the glass and grime of the ground when i cam up with my crazy ideas.

Long Ranger

Chris turned on time as usual after a long journey. He was full of ideas as he has used the location before. He was respectful of the surroundings and the fact that some things have a value and others don't, and found lots of unusual places to take shots. Chris asked if things could be moved and didn't

presume that it would be OK. I enjoyed the shoot with Aerlise and Chris, it was a fun day.

Aerlise

This shoot with Chris was great, he came with many ideas and discovered many more through the day (with was around 9 hours!).

Chris is a real gentleman and agreed any shots which may have been a little "close to the edge".

Looking on the back of the camera the images came out really well, I'm looking forward to seeing the finished product.

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Chris and I am looking forward to working with him again.

My 3rd shoot with Chris, the first 2 being TF shoots, but this one was a personal shoot creating a specific set of images and I knew Chris would be perfect for the job the moment I thought it up.

Chris was at the venue well before I got there, and I was 10 minutes early! Pre-shoot comms were thorough and he brought everything he needed to set up the mobile studio set up.

The other two models involved in the shoot had only done a couple of shoots each and Chris was brilliant at directing both them & me with our poses.

I had grossly underestimated the amount of time that would be required for the shoot (we needed 12 perfect images for a calendar), but chris had no qualms extending the shooting time. He just kept going, no complaints at all.

Chris is friendly, with a great sense of humour, but is also completely professional.

I loved working with him the first two times, and this was no different. In fact, each shoot I've done with Chris has been more fun than the last one.

Very, very highly recommended. Love you Chris! ♥
