Thank you Claudia, it was such a pleasure working with you, and you're highly recommended by me!!

Had my first shoot with Claudia, and must say, I was very impressed, with her detailed pre-shoot comm's, and on the shoot, she was interested, and concerned with really getting the best photos.

Claudia is a beautiful model, along with this, is very professional and committed to you working with you, thank you Claudia for a fantastic shoot!! :)

Had my first shoot with Claudia last night, shooting some urban portraits along Bristol harbourside.

The shoot was only an hour or so long but we smashed through a number of different looks. Claudia is able to work well with or without direction and is happy to roll with an idea. She's a pleasure to be around and I'd definitely recommend shooting with her.

Such a lovely person, excellent communications prior and during the shoot. Worked patiently, with and without direction, whilst we explored the lighting options and props. Claudia turned on her magic and delivered! Many thanks again.

Unreservedly recommend Claudia and will work with her again.

A very enjoyable and very rewarding outdoors shoot. A half day's shoot which I'd arranged via casting call on here - a range of shoot sets along the beautiful South Wales coast, first in woodland, then sand dunes, then coastal rock outcrops and beach. We had to rearrange for good weather and my 23 year old daughter helped hold a reflector or off camera flash when I wanted this. Claudia's pre-shoot communications were very good and she arrived on time with the lifestyle and swimwear outfits I'd requested. Claudia is a gorgeous young lady, easy to get on with and took on board everything I wanted to shoot, showing a good positive attitude. I've looked through all the images we achieved and I'm very pleased with them, some are particularly stunning and I look forward to selecting my best favourites for some editing and uploading onto my portfolio here on PurplePort. I would love to do another outdoors location shoot with Claudia some time. She's a talented model, highly recommended. Thank you again Claudia for a fabulous shoot.

It was a pleasure working with Claudia, her pre shoot communication was excellent and she arrived on time with a good selection of outfits for our morning in the forest. Claudia looks amazing and has a natural talent to pose in a given location which was great for me as I needed to give less direction and got some very pleasing results. Another great benefit of working with Claudia is that she is outgoing and we quickly built up a good rapport and chatted throughout our morning together.

I finished our half day shoot with a very pleasing collection of photographs some of which I have shared on my portfolio. Thank you Claudia for a very enjoyable morning, I look forward to working with you again soon!

Just had my 4th shoot with Claudia in about 3 weeks which really says it all. She worked really hard over 4 hours, climbing over rocks in heels without a single moan. She managed to model a large number of outfits creating some beautifully elegant shapes. Claudia is a warm, generous and caring person and I have a huge amount of respect for her. We have agreed to shoot reasonably regularly and are already planning a dawn shoot and a night time shoot. She is very competent with make up but also looks fabulous without any. She will communicate well before a shoot, make creative suggestions and is very reliable. I am very happy to recommend her highly. Thanks Claudia for all yo have done for my projects

Just had my 3rd shoot in as many weeks with Claudia which really says it all. As with the others, it was an absolute delight and she has produced some stunning images in her portrayal of the heavenly virtue of purity, the work with wine and modelling the clothes we sell for charity. This shoot was awesome and just whizzed by. She is a beautiful model who flows easily from one pose to another making subtle changes to create different looks. She is great fun to work with, communicates well before the shoot and is always ready on time looking immaculate. With this 3rd shoot, Claudia took a greater part in the planning and creative side making very useful suggestions on exact locations and nature of the shots as well as bringing well chosen accessories and props to enhance the images. I plan to work with Claudia on a regular basis in the future and highly recommend her to one and all.

I had my 2nd shoot with Claudia today and just like my first, it was a very pleasant experience. Excellent pre-shoot communication; ready bang on time with make up all done to perfection, hard working and committed to making a shoot as good as possible. This time we were out in a bluebell wood and near a stream and waterfall. Claudia gives much thought to her poses and the images she creates and her professionalism never wanes. She listens carefully to the style and type of image you are after and often will make suggestions which will enhance the concept. She is a very warm person who creates some beautiful elegant images (and other styles too!). She is quite happy to go scrambing over rocks and walk down streams to get the right image. In short she is a delight to work with and time simply flies by. If you have ever considered working with Claudia, dont hesitate any longer as you not be disappointed. Future shoots on a regular basis are already under discussion!

Thank you Claudia for an excellent shoot x

I had a wonderful shoot today with the highly talented Claudia.

Pre shoot communication was spot on throughout since we agreed to shoot so that we both knew what to expect on the day and indeed what to bring. Claudia was great company and the conversation flowed all the way to (and from) the chosen location.

During the shoot, Claudia flowed from pose to pose and took what little direction I gave very well. She showed boundless energy and gave her all throughout the shoot.

Professional, enthusiastic,creative, friendly, respectful and polite at all times. What more could a photographer want from a model ? I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending this fantastic young model to all photographers and I am looking forward to my next shoot with her (which is already at the planning stage).

Thank you very much indeed for today Claudia.

Claudia was a perfect match for our „Gone with the wind“ style photo shoot and an absolute pleasure to work with. Great pre-shoot communication and she arrived well in time. Claudia is very beautiful and hard working and takes direction well, making our photoshoot a great success. We would love to work with Claudia again and highly recommend her.

I've just had an excellent shoot with Claudia at White Horse hill in Westbury, Wiltshire. Claudia was a joy to work with and totally professional throughout! She proved willing, as promised, to hike with me from the train station to our shooting location at the top of a steep hill; then she cheerfully posed in her diaphanous white dress, in a howling wind, even climbing on top of a stone pillar for some very dramatic shots. Claudia is an experienced and talented model with an amazing instinct for expressive posing. I hope this will be the first of many shoot with her - highly recommended!

I had my first and extremely enjoyable shoot with Claudia at Bath Spa campus today. Pre-shoot communications were very good and it was obvious she wanted to do a very good job. She shot a portrayal of the sins of lust and vanity plus she modelled clothes which we sell to raise money for a local charity. She was ready on time and maintained a high energy level throughout the shoot. Claudia is an absolute delight to work with and the time flew by (as it always does when you are enjoying yourself). She showed considerable talent and creativity and came up with good ideas during the shoot. It was clear that she was dedicated to making it a success and I was impressed by her commitment. She is relaxed and chatty but totally focussed when necessary. She switches easily from one pose to another and needs minimal direction after an initial discussion about the concept. I have had an initial look at the photos and am extremely pleased with the images she created. Her hair is fabulous and provides an extra dimension to images. If I had to summarise her in 4 words it would be dedicated, reliable, talented and fun. We are already in discussion about further shoots which I will look forward to. Thank you for today Claudia, it was, as one top model would say, "sweet!". See you before too long.

I had an awesome urban/fashion photoshoot with Claudia in Bath Spa today. Claudia is a charming, fun, and pleasure to work with. The girl with the great personality and professional attitude.

Claudia arrived with a full bag of clothing. Her make up skills are just too good!

I am looking forward to our beauty shoot in my studio!

Highly recommended!

Thanks

Just got back from having an amazing shoot with Claudia. She is really easy to get on with and takes directions well, she can also come up with her own ideas. Would recommend any photographer to work with her , be it a newbie or a seasoned pro. I look forward to working again with her in the future.

I had the pleasure of working with Claudia for a couple of hours today in a pretty little local park,and what a pleasure it was.

She is warm, friendly and outstandingly pretty model and very easy to work with.

She worked really hard to make sure the shots that we wanted were a success. I would definately recommend her to any photographer looking for a natural girl with patience and that certain twinkle.

Thanks Claudia you are a star.

I was lucky enough to shoot with Skyla at the end of 2016. Make up and hair was good to go on my arrival, and we shot in the woods near her home. Skyla has massive potential as a model and was very responsive to direction. Her posing was fluid and made great use of her height and awesome long hair. For a first shoot, the images we captured were awesome.

I would definitely recommend working with Skyla 100%, and would definitely shoot with her again.
