I consider myself fortunate enough to have been involved with CCSW events since the outset, attending all the brilliant events put on over the past year.

I've made some good friends and connections in the industry over that time and always look forward to attending.

Professional. Fun. Friendly. For anyone who is a creative person, no matter you're level of experience with photoshoots!

These events are highly recommended.

I hope to meet more of you over the coming months at different CCSW evenings.

I've been very fortunate to be involved with this collective from day one. Lots of hard work and creative input from all involved.

The winner for me are 'egos' are left at the door and its an amazing amalgam of wanting to shine the spotlight on others potential.

Its a old cliche to say 'everyone is welcome'but regardless of experience, this is truly the case here and enthusiasm will come before experience.

I have been fortunate enough to attend a few of these events now and every single time it has been an absolute privilege to attend. Everyone is incredibly friendly and skilled at what they do. Each event has been very unique enabling everyone to gain something incredibly diverse for their portfolios.

Can’t wait to attend more of them!

I've been able to get to most of the events put on by the Collective in Taunton, each and everyone has been creatively themed which has been awesome.

They has been a great mix of models and photographers working together, some experienced other less so, always a helpful atmosphere with everyone sharing and assisting each other where required. A place where there is a sharing of knowledge, sets and wardrobe.

Very well organised and set up events which are not only productive they are social and thoroughly enjoyable.

This is now my 3rd event evening I've attended and I'm so glad I took the plunge in going to that first one! It's a fantastic event I always have a great time. It's lovely to meet so many great photographers and other models, everyone is so friendly and kind. I've learnt so much and had some fantastic images so thank you. Looking forward to attending more in the future.

I am delighted to of been involved with the Creative Collective Southwest Events. I have attended several of these events and have really enjoyed myself, the friendliness of photographers and models have always been warm and welcoming. I can honestly say that I have made really good friendships from these events.

The organisation of these events brings creative and like minded people together which can only be a good thing!

The organiser of these events, works endlessly and puts in so much effort to make each one a success. CCS has hosted a great range of themes each time, which brings exciting new ways of creating different work for portfolios.

Thank you to everyone who i have worked with it’s been a real pleasure! See you at the next event!

I've been a house photographer at six CCS events to date, through which I've had fun, designing and developing concepts for attendees to shoot, engaging with likeminded creatives, enjoying numerous collaborations to produce some memorable images both inside at evenings in Mackenzies and outside on the streets of Taunton in daytime.

Regular and new attendees at each event has kept things evolving. The instigator of these events has created something that has potential to grow and I suspect is much loved by most if not all who have attended to date.

The logistics have sometimes been challenging but have provided rewards and experience. I have made some new friendships on the way and networking at the events has led to some further shoots outside of events. I have also been able to provide advice when asked on some aspects of photography and expand my knowledge given the variety of experience that attends.

I would encourage photographers, models, make up artists in fact anyone who wants to grow as a creative to attend CCS events.

Hopefully I'll see you there.
