Had a brilliant first shoot with David at his studio. Shooting with David is a breath of fresh air. His style is refined, elegant, and understatedly stunning. He has this talent for seeing the tiny discrepancies in angle and pose that separate a good image from an incredible one.

Tony's pre-comms were great, he provided detailed instructions to his studio and was mindful that I didn't get lost. He also communicated clearly what he wanted from the shoot, which helped me pack and prepare.

When I met David I was instantly at ease in his company. He is an up front, what you see is what you get kind of guy, which I really appreciated. The fact he has been in the photography industry for many years was evident - he didn't shoot anything for the sake of it, nailed the shot within minutes, and moved on.

From the first few shots, I knew I could relax and not worry about anything except my ability to pose and take direction, knowing full well that David would capture the most flattering angle and pose whatever I did.

Shooting with David is engaging, educational, and truly something different to what a freelance model might be used to. Work with him if you get the chance!

Had another fabulous shoot with David recently. David once again welcomed me to his beautiful home/studio, made me feel comfortable, was friendly, had a great sense of humour and generally a nice person to be around.

Whilst shooting David gave excellent directions and was creative. From what I have seen the results are going to be great.

Hopefully this was not our last encounter and I can whole heartily recommend David to anyone.

I worked with David at his beautiful home on a recent tour and had such a great time! It was our first time working together, so I am always a little nervous, but neednt have been as the shoot was full of laughter and banter from the offset!

The studio room of Davids house was a fantastic space and David is great with lighting and likes to give good direction throughout the shoot. I would love to work with him again, but may give him a cheeky slap for liking me to a young podgy Kate Winslet! :) However, he did make me laugh ALOT and I had an enjoyable shoot- I hope we work together again and can recommend :) Helen x

I had a great first shoot with David on Tuesday. His pre-shoot communication was good and so the shoot ran smoothly as I knew what was expected of me. The shots we got look amazing!

I'd happily recommend David and look forward to shooting with him again. :)

A brilliant photographer!

I had a shoot with David during a trip to London and he is very clear what he'd like to achieve and knows when he's got it then happy to move on. Very productive, great communication, he's organised and professional. Undoubtedly produces excellent images. I'm pleased I got the opportunity to work with him. Highly recommended :-)

Had the great opportunity to work with David today. It went very well, David was very clear about what he wanted for the shoot, he gave me clear direction and it felt comfortable to work with him. He has a fun personality, a great character! The communication prior the shoot flowed very well, I had to cancel our first date but with enough notice and he didn't give me grief for it. I would happily work with David again.
