Had an amazing time shooting with Andy at my 2 day studio shoot at his studio Kempston studios.

Andy is a lovely professional hardworking photographer and studio owner and took care of me over the 2 days I worked there.

We had a shoot at the end of my first day and he made some really beautiful sets and had cool ideas such as the fan blowing and we even tried a Marilyn monroe type pose , it was super fun.

Andy made me feel comfortable and is great to chat to and work with and I give him my highest recommendation to any models either expirienced or just starting out! He’s a star!

This was my first time working with Andy at his studio in Bedford, we worked on various ideas but my stand out favourite was the 'artist painting herself' set! He booked a slot on my recent Kempston tour and boy did we pack in a lot, Andy was chatty, laid back and had a clear idea of what he wanted to achieve. Very much looking forward to working with him again, highly recommended!

I shot with Andy again recently, while visiting Kempston and he was kind enough to pick me up from Milton Keynes Station.

He also picked me up a mountain of fruit to have for lunch, which is very much appreciated as well as oat milk for my coffee! Always a pleasure to work with and chat with.

He set up a lovely Moroccan style set, with different fabrics and props. You can tell that Andy is just naturally creative, as this isn't a set in the studio usually and he created it himself quickly which just shows how much there is to work with.

Using an old plant pot as a drinking bowl etc, we got some really lovely images as well as some portraits afterwards.

Andy has a great, laid back approach but also knows what sort of images he wants to produce and I would definitely recommend him 100%. :)

I had a great shoot with Andy at his studio. He is very warm, friendly and easy to get along with. He made me feel at ease straight away and I loved his creativity. He was very helful at suggesting new ideas and different things to try which I really liked. He also was so easy to talk to and the shoot was really enjoyable. He is very professional and is very knowledgable about many aspects of photography and clearly passionate about it. I can't recommend working with him enough and I would love to work with him again soon.

Thank you

Angelheart.

Worked with Andy again recently at my studio day at Kempston Studio and it was a bit trial and error with experimenting with lights and ideas he had in mind but all very creative with light movement using gels and even some light up fairy wings which was very cool!

Andy has a keen eye for detail, and is very respectful of the model throughout. We had a good chat throughout and some laughs too as you just can't be too serious in this type of work can you!!

The time honestly flew by and the images I've seen are just awesome!!!

Highly recommended from me, and I very much look forward to the next time we get to shoot together.

Andy is an open heart! I feel so welcome every time I go to his studio. Andy is always happy to try new ideas and is a wonderful mentor with who you can share concepts and ideas about modelling. Always happy to make you shine! (yes, it's easy to feel like a Princess I must confess). I arrived and everything was ready for me and another model, Andy bought us some clothes specially for the shoot. I'm very pleased with the results. Recommend Andy 100% as a professional and as a friend!

Another lovely thought out shoot with Andy, after three days at his warm studio doing studio days we had a make up artist ( lovely girl highly recommend her too!) and with everyone's input we got some amazing shots.

Andy has become one of my fav people to work with, makes a good tea and has great ideas on what to shoot and will work hard to achieve.

Highly recommend Andy

I worked with Andy for the first time at Kempston Studio and it was an absolutely fantastic shoot! Andy was professional, respectful, polite and easy going from start to finish. He had lots of ideas that we worked through and he was also willing to hear the models ideas too.

Throughout the shoot Andy showed me the images we were getting and they were absolutely fantastic! He really knows his lighting and how to take a bloody good photo! The shoot flew by with lots of laughter and chatting and of course images being taken too!

I thoroughly enjoyed my shoot with Andy he is one of the nicest photographers I have worked with, I would without any hesitation wholeheartedly recommend him! And I truly hope I get to work with him again. If you get an opportunity to shoot with Andy don’t miss it!

I had a wonderful shoot with Andy! He was very welcoming and had a lot of knowledge about set and lighting- I loved how passionate he was to get the best results for each photo. He was very open to my ideas and he even helped develop them. I absolutely love his work and was so excited to work with him and the images he captured were amazing. 100% recommend working with him, a very talented photographer who I look forward to shooting with again in future :)

Andy is a fantastic photographer as well as studio owner at Kempston Studios. His passion shows in his commitment to each set and the ideas he brings to the shoot. We ended up doing some really fun wedding/bridal work and then also some portraits with gels and smokes and also some creative body shots too!

Andy is a pleasure to work with and made me feel so comfortable and at ease and we got some amazing photos! I definitely hope to be able to shoot with Andy again soon on my return to Kempston studio😊

I had another amazing shoot with Andy recently for a Black and Gold themed body paint shoot. I can't recommend Andy enough, not only is he a lovely person but he is so good at photography and direction also.

I had an incident where I got paint in my eye (not Andy's fault) so he assisted me and guided me to the toilets to help me get the paint out and ensured that I was okay. I therefore trust that Andy will always look after Models on shoots and put their safety first, hoping to work with Andy again soon!

Had a amazing time working with Andy in his studio. Not only he is a great photographer, professional and with a really good eye for his craft, but he also a lovely human. Fully recommend him!

I had my first shoot with Andy at his studio yesterday, a dynamic studio full of brilliant sets, props, and equipment. Andy has a great eye for detail, a wealth of knowledge to provide, and ensured the whole experience was relaxed and comfortable for me. BOC photos were shown throughout the shoot, which I found very helpful to fine tune the desired shots.

Andy is full of ideas and we discussed concepts for shooting with each other in the future. Towards the end of the shoot, I expressed my interest in bodyscaping and Andy was happy to shoot right then and there. The images are absolute perfection! I look forward to collaborating again - highly recommended!

Ive really got to know Andy over the last few months as he is my local studio ( 8 mins up the road from me!! )

Andy is a very kind and friendly guy, full of so much creative and photographic knowledge and makes a brilliant cuppa t! - which is essential...

Andy always looks after the modes when they are shooting with himself or in the studio shooting with others.

I have no issue recommending Andy and Kempston studio to other models and photographers.

Andy is brilliant to work with. We shot for 2 hours on a 2 day event we were running at his studio. Had great ideas, let me pose and give ideas of my own as well as plenty of tea and chats. Knows how to light a model and scene and takes fab shots. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

Emma Starmore-Smith

I shot with Andy last Thursday and the photos we produced - from what I saw on the back of the camera - looked amazing. We used multiple sets and lightings and were able to experiment together.

After having a great shoot, biscuits and tea were supplied which made it perfect in my books!

Looking forward to getting the next shoot planned with Andy, and can’t wait to see the final products from this one!
