I collaborated with Craig over e-mail so we never actually met - I supplied self-shot images according to his brief and he transformed them into miraculous and intriguing artworks... All I can say is Craig was very easy and straightforward to deal with, no issues, and I'm delighted with the results, so I'd encourage anyone who is thinking of doing the same. A very positive experience.

Had such a fun and interesting shoot today with Craig.

His works is very unique and artistic so i jumped on the oppertunity to work with him when I saw his casting.

We shot via zoom and everything went just so smooth and easy.

Very relaxed guy and the one hours shot just flew by.

Can't wait to see the final results! Highly recommended!

Thanks again Craig :)

I had an interesting short remote shoot today. Craig looks at images in a different kind of way so I was keen to work with him to get some different type of work on my portfolio. After a few technical glitches (zoom deciding to update for 10 minutes), we were away and into the shoot. Good pre shoot comms and a nice chat. Will be interesting to see the results

I got to work with Craig for the first time recently on a remote shoot. I do not normally do zoom/remote shoots however I was really interested in his unique style so decided to give it a go.

I'm so glad I did!

Pre comms were good, Craig was very easy to work with, explained his process thoroughly and was very laid back and friendly

We got through a lot in an hour and had a good laugh. The images are abstract and unique, something you don't get very often, and I'm so pleased with how they came out

I would be more than happy to work with Craig again, and he comes recommended from me :)

I had my first zoom shoot with Craig today and it went so smoothly!

Craig is so relaxed and fun to work with. His photos are so unique and I love his creativity. He is professional throughout and a joy to work with.

Craig doesn’t give much direction when it comes to posing which is nice as then I could do free flow when posing.

I am really looking forward to seeing the images.

I would definitely recommend Craig !

Thank you very much!

I had an epic shoot with Craig recently... He contacted me and asked if I would be interested in a remote shoot and I jumped at the chance after he explained how he worked and produced his imagery!...

Comms were fabulous!

Craigs work is a lot more abstract than most photographers here on PP, but for someone who is a creative photographer herself and an expressive model it was such an epic experience!...

The whole shoot from start to finish was epic! Craig is a lovely guy, chatty and friendly. I think we put the world to rights a little too!...

But he is very creative and talented .... What he produces from working remotely is inspiring!...

Not all of his shots are 'model pretty' but he is creating work that talks, questions and is simply art.

I would certainly without hesitation recommend Craig to models either remotely or in person!...

Thanks again Craig for an epic shoot!....The results were so good!

I had an amazing remote shoot with CTB today, all by zoom which I use a lot for life modelling.

Anyhoo what an amazing guy, very chilled and laid back, knows what he wants, no pressure, made me very at easy, an absolute gem!

Thankyou for your professionalism

Craig is great to work with, pre shoot Comms were superb and the shoot was really chilled.

I love the creativity of his shoots which is what drew me to work with him and would definitely work with him on any other project as he was super respectful, funny and everything one wants in a photographer!

Craig approached me about a remote shoot and as soon as I saw his work, I was so excited to create with him! Pre-comms were clear but laid-back and Craig was so friendly and kind during the shoot. It was a pleasure to watch him work and to chat to him between shots. Highly recommended and I would be delighted to shoot again, either remotely or in person.

Craig and I collaborated on a remote shoot over Zoom; a first for me. I had seen enough of his work to trust that the photos would turn out wonderfully and I wasn't disappointed. Using textured glass and mirrors he created impressive in-camera effects whilst leaving me to roam about picking up various props and silks for added textures and shapes. I love the photos we created together, they are unlike anything I've ever shot before.

When I saw Craig's abstract Zoom art I realised "that's the sort of remote shoot I want to do". We arranged a shoot, my first remote shoot ever and it was tons of fun. It was so great to work with somebody who enjoys mystery, chaos and absurdity as much as I do. Craig was friendly and fun to talk to in between shots. The pictures are fabulous and varied. I look forward to doing it again sometime and would highly recommend Craig to other models.

I had a fantastic remote shoot with Craig last weekend. He is very easy to talk to and has a great sense of humour. Precomms were clear and straightforward. He was very patient with me whilst I got us prepared for each set. Craig had some awesome ideas for props and poses, different angles to try etc.

The edits were sent over promptly and I am really pleased with the work we produced. The images look fab; very artistic and atmospheric.

Craig is a very creative and talented photographer. I would highly recommend him to any model looking to work with him!

Thanks for a great shoot Craig. :)

I had my first virtual shoot today with Craig, and it was so amazing! I was feeling nervous as id never done a virtual shoot before, but he was super chill and explained everything to me! It was a real fun shoot, and I absolutely adore the finished results, which were edited super speedily! Thanks so much!

Firstly how can I not mention Craig’s incredible style, all his work is breathtakingly beautiful and you can feel a story in each image. I wanted to work with Craig all summer and we finally made it happen in September. Had a great fashion style shoot at the beach and he gave clear direction and came prepared with lots of ideas. He was also very friendly and I would love to work with him again in the future. Thank you!

Craig is great to work with, great to talk to and has fantastic ideas.

Highly recommended :)

Craig is by far one of the best photographers I have worked with, his concepts as well as photos are mesmerizing and is an all around lovely person! I am looking forward to our next shoot which we have already got in the works!

Had my first shoot with Craig today, and what an amazing human!

Before the shoot his pre-comms were excellent, and very professional. His professionalism remained throughout the entire shoot, which showed through the pictures.

He made me feel extremely comfortable the entire time, and provided some excellent conversation which was amazing for myself, as I talk quite a lot :P

The back of the camera shots were fantastic, and it's very much clear that he knows exactly what he's doing!

10/10 would recommend without a doubt. Thanks for a fab shoot! :)
