I've shot with Claire on a couple of occasions now and she is always brilliant to work with. Friendly, easy-going, chatty, but highly professional and knowledgeable as well. I'd certainly recommend her, thanks! S x

What can I say about my shoot with Claire that has not already been said by so many photographers before me.. I will try..!

I was fortunate enough to spend the entire day with Claire, I think this is needed, Claire brings a sense of creative maturity, a wealth of experience in all genres within her expansive but 'comfortable 'levels' and is so keen to assist in achieving the image we both wanted

Claire describes herself as a 'curve' model so I will not upset her by saying that at times I was challenged to achieve the image that I believed she would be proud of and indeed I was satisfied with, I do not hide from the fact that I normally shoot with models of lesser years, but experience definitely shows and Claire can pull off the most amazing of poses which I have not experienced before..!

BUT, what a beautiful experience it was to shoot with this amazing creative, happy, positive, and I know I should not use the word 'sexy' lady but I have to, Claire is just so professional in her work but makes it so enjoyable for both, she has so much to offer and I learnt so much, it really was an absolutely brilliant day which I will not forget.!

To sum up, you could probably spend an entire week with this incredible lady, she has so much creativeness within her, and time really does slip by so quickly, should you shoot with Claire, Absolutely YES, it should be compulsory..!!

A FANTASTIC shoot, and I thank you Claire for such an incredible day, my images will follow shortly..! You were amazing..x

Just had my first shoot with this lovely lady. Claire arrived on time, we had a coffee and a chat then set about taking some fabulous images.

Claire brought several changes of clothes and lingerie. We started with some fashion shots, before moving on to lingerie and boudoir. We even got a few shots in the garden before the rain came.

Claire is so easy going and great fun to work with. She takes direction well but also has her own ideas and input. Nothing was too much trouble and the time just flew by.

Such a beautiful lady, great personality, bubbly and funny. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Claire to anyone and we have already talked about shooting again soon. Hopefully, very soon.

Thank you again Claire, I really enjoyed working with you and can't wait to do it again!

See The Best In You

I’d originally planned to shoot Claire a few years ago just before COVID, and then my year in plaster and on crutches got in the way. I couldn’t have picked a better person to start my return to photography with.

Claire’s initial communication was friendly, helpful and professional. It was lovely to arrive to a big welcoming smile and a hot cuppa was warming my hands before I knew it. Claire’s lovely hair was exactly as we had discussed and her makeup was absolutely “on point”. Conversation flowed easily as Claire put up with my admittedly terrible Dad jokes while I tried to hide my early nerves before we shot. Her open nature and humour quickly made me feel comfortable.

The shoot itself was fun and, whilst Claire posed very naturally, she was also pleased to take direction. I have to say that Claire looked stunning in the outfits that we had picked. She also had a number of well thought-out accessories to support the costumes. We captured all the images that I had planned and I’m bowled over by the results.

Claire is very much recommended and I plan to work again with her soon.

Thank you,

I have just had my first shoot with Claire. She was the bride on our wedding photography course, unfortunately she had me as her groom, sorry Claire. Claire turned up on time, ready to get started and her make-up and hair was impeccable. Claire was always smiling and very personable. She followed directions, as well as offering ideas to improve the poses and shoot. She helped the students relax and feel at ease learning how to pose and photograph the bride and groom.

Thank you Claire for making my job easy, and I look forward to working with you again soon.

Had shoot number 2 with Claire at Inspire Studios in Salisbury earlier today.

Just like shoot number one, three months ago, it was a really beautiful and fun shoot. Claire was superb throughout - always professional and very willing to try different set-ups, styles and clothing that I put her way.

It really was a lovely three hours - fun, friendly, totally relaxed with lots of laughs along the way. I came away with many beautiful and amazing images, so not just a fun three hours, but so worthwhile with so many different and lovely images.

Many thanks Claire for a great shoot - see you soon for shoot number three😃

Oh wow. Just had my first shoot with Claire and what an absolutely amazing shoot it was.

Firstly, pre-coms were so good that I felt I already knew Claire when we met.

The shoot itself was a truly wonderful experience and the images that I came away with were amazing. Claire was brilliant throughout and such a lovely person to work with - always showing an interest in the images and clearly wanting me to be happy with them, and yes I am.

Claire has a beautiful personality and is so easy to get along with. The shoot had everything, was fun and relaxed, and Claire was 100% professional at all times. Her enthusiasm was always evident and definitely contributed so much to the quality of the images produced.

A beautiful shoot with so many beautiful images.

Many thanks Claire - shoot number 2 to be booked shortly and I can’t wait

Portraits by Gus

I had a fun first shoot with Claire last week.after initial comms a few months ago, we arranged a woodland/stream shoot.

Claire arrived on time with make up done and outfits (with accessories) ready to discuss. We covered 3 varying looks, which Claire posed through effortlessly. Claire is comfortable posing, but also takes direction very well, when required.

Claire is easy to get along with and the shoot time just flew by, as it was fun and relaxed. We ended up with a number of quality images, a couple of which have already made their way to my portfolio.

Glad that we finally got to work together and hope to do so again soon.

I've know about Claire for a fair time as we where both mature models but now I've stepped the other side it was fantastic to get to work with her. We got on really well and did lots of chatting. We shot at Claires House which has some nice natural light, she also went along with my ideas and had some lovely lingerie to test out. A very enjoyable shoot and hopefully we will get together again the future.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Sauvignon for the first time on a remote shoot and she was complete joy to work with. Her communication was spot on from the off and she took on the themes/ideas we discussed to produce wonderful images that suited the brief perfectly. A natural in front of the camera, I'd highly recommend her to any photographer out there and I hope to work with her again in the future as she amazing :)

I had my second shoot with Claire aka Sauvignon today. Precomms were excellent, Claire arrived on time, ready to shoot, with a selection of various outfits and accessories. It is a joy to work with a model who is bubbly and fun, yet full of helpful suggestions to enhance the shoot. Claire is an excellent model who responds to direction and is at ease with free posing.

I would recommend working with Claire to all photographers.

Thank you Claire I hope to work with you again very soon.

I have worled with Claire aka @Sauvignon for many years. Today was my 5th Shoot with her in 2019. As usual Claire was top class. Her communication was on time, Brought along good variery of outfits and accessories.

A gorgeous model, needed no direction and took it well when suggested.

Being the seasonal time of the year we made also made it a fun shoot with a touch of Ms Clause.

As usual our time just breezed past, all good sessions came to and end.

Thank you @Sauvignon for many of our past shoots. Now looking forward to our 2020 sessions.

Another great session with Sauvignon who came to the shoot with a wealth of outfits i.e lingreies, bodysuits, corsets, stockings, shoes and accessories.

Her curvacious figure complimented whatever she wore which past the time so fast and worked my camera into overdrive as she posed boudoir

Absolutely fabulous in every way, the images captured will be added to some of my best collection taken also exhibited to the sauvignon album.

A great model with style, class, fun, great attitude and the ability to be flexible during a shoot, then look no further.

Claire has some great ideas, knows how to pose and always happy to offer suggestions to enhance a set or situation.

A pleasure to be around, we had lots of laughs along the way, the pics are fab and I look forward to the next session.

Worked with Claire many a times and hopefully will again very soon. Beautiful, stunning lady so who just makes shoots fly by. Such a great personality, incredibly funny and so creative - take on any ideas she has during a shoot, you won’t regret it. Highly recommended. Absolutel Gem! X

Great working with this incredibly talented model again. Communications spot on as always, punctual, arrived with great outfits and looked amazing in every one. Amazing company & a consummate professional. Looking forward to shooting together again soon x

First shoot with Claire was an absolute blast, and one of the most enjoyable.

Communication beforehand was all positive, Claire had found a great location to shoot from and the whole thing was over far too quickly and we could have shot for hours more.

The good thing about that is we are already planning a second shoot, and i'm sure there will be many more with this lovely lady.

Claire has lots of ideas, takes direction well, and more than happy to try bring some spontaneous scenarios and ideas to fruition - great fun all round with a lot of laughs as well

What else can I say, but look forward to the next shoot! x

Amazing shoot with Claire today - I can honestly say it has been one of my favourites in a long time. I had been searching for someone with a look similar to hers for a long long time so was delighted when she agreed a shoot with me, and the shoot was definitely worth the excitement - and then some. :)

Her communication prior to the shoot was great and she arrived early and well prepared. She had not worn latex prior today and wanted to give it a go, so we shot a few outfits and ended up loving the images so much that by the time we were halfway through our second set, we were getting a little bit carried away by planning a second shoot already!

She has a very friendly and cheerful personality and I feel that we almost instantly 'clicked' on a creative level and it took her no time at all to get into the flow of things. She has the energy, looks, and creativity of many models half her age, and evidently keeps herself in a great curvy shape - the aim of today's shoot was to prove that latex doesn't just have to be for a twenty year old with a slim figure, and I would say that we definitely proved that, with Claire looking and posing amazingly in all of the outfits that I brought along.

She was happy to pose freely with little input and came up with some great ideas and poses, but also took direction very well when I had a particular shot in mind. She was patient when I had a few issues with my lighting setup and all around the shoot just flowed super easily and we got some fantastic images.

I would have no hesitation in recommending her to other photographers and definitely hope that our plans to do a second shoot work out!

Slight Exposure

Had my first shoot with Sauvignon yesterday, Coms before the shoot worked very well.

To say I enjoyed the shoot would be an understatement. This lady is a total Professional she arrived with loads of outfit and we worked for the 4 hours solid.

Sauvignon is a lovely model to shoot with and hopefully she will be happy to arrange a second shoot sometime soon.

Thanks Sauvignon X

I recently had the great pleasure of spending an afternoon shooting with this wonderful lady. Pre-shoot comms were great and we both knew what to expect and what to bring. Sauvignon arrived on time with her make-up and hair done to a high standard. She had no issues with the trek through chest height ferns to get to the location...in fact later on she initiated exploring through more high vegetation and climbing a tree to get a shot.

Sauvignon is so easy to get along with and relaxed that we were soon chatting away like old friends. She took my occasional direction in her stride, but otherwise she posed confidently and flowed into a new pose after each shutter click.

A classy lady, with a cheeky side that I would highly recommend to all photographers and I look forward to shooting together again soon.
