I had my first shoot with Darcie at a superb event organised by Spire photography studio. The shoot took place at Ledston Equine centre Nr Weatherby with Darcie's beautiful horse Gracie, who also posed beautiful throughout the morning.

Darcie, ably assisted by Mandy had prepared and organise a superb shoot which progressed throughout the morning in a very organised manner. A few short breaks to allow Darcie to change outfits and allow the photographers short breaks allowing for a coffee and snacks worked well. The snacks were a league above any other I've experienced on one of these organised shoots with a great rage of biscuits, crisps, fruit and cakes.

My fist shoot with Darcie and it was a pleasure, happy and chatty throughout she was a pleasure to work alongside. Darcie poses effortlessly and is very natural in front of the camera, she needs no direction at all. Her hair is just so beautiful. I just hope my images do her justice.

Mandy, Darcie's assistant was so knowledgable with the horse Gracie, she helped control the overall event which worked and allowed Darcie to concentrate on the modelling.

Overall a superb event, well organised and well executed. Hopefully I'll be able to attend another of the events in future.

Thanks Darcie, Mandy and of course Gracie for a wonderful morning.

100% recommended.

I had the pleasure of shooting Darcie on Sunday.

A beautiful natural model she poses with ease and needs no direction at all.

She is friendly, chatty and quite chilled throughout the shoot which helps new or inexperienced photographers relax during the shoot. Darcie can also take direction and instantly change positions and moods with ease.

During an equestrian shoot not only managing her own modelling she controlled the horse superbly and she gave the photographers the confidence to get up close and personal even when the horse was carrying out movements including in the trot and canter.

Darcies outfits for the day were perfect and contrasted the scenery and horse perfectly.

Can't wait to book Darcie for perhaps a more traditional modelling session. A true natural beauty.

Thanks Darcie for a marvellous first shoot.

I owe Darcie a few references and I'll write a very quick one now :)

What a lovely model. I had the pleasure of working alongside Darcie as a model, photographing her in front of my lens, and hosting her shoot with CerithMJ at Zavod.

I am so excited to see her do so well in the industry, although she is fairly new to the photography scene. This girl will go far, I know it. Can't wait to see it happen and will always be her biggest cheerleader :)

Highly recommend working with Darcie.

All the best,

Xenia

Had my first shoot with Darcie at AURAphotographic. She came with a great selection of outfits, although we stuck with floaty dresses and shiny clothes!

She was very happy to come outside and get some shots by some industrial style buildings, and she threw in some creative ideas, which is always appreciated!

Darcie is a great model and fun to work with. We had a good laugh and got some great shots!

Thanks for a great shoot Darcie! Highly recommended to photographers of every level!

I had a remote shoot with Darcie at Aura Studio the other day (thank you Emily for assisting) and it was wonderful. Darcie was fun and amiable and lovely through the shoot. We had great communication before it and I was so happy during and after when I was looking at our pictures. Remotes can be tricky but she was terrific. I recommend her without question and look forward to our next shoot. Thanks again Darcie.

Had a fantastic shoot with Darcie today.

Pre shoot comms were excellent as we settled on ideas for our shoot. Darcie arrived on time (she got there before I did!) and came prepared with an abundance of outfits to suit what we were shooting.

Darcie is great to work with. She's professional, friendly, charming, engaging, needs little direction, and is just generally fun to be around. I haven't edited much from our shoot yet, but what I have edited are, frankly, the best shots I've ever taken. I'm so happy with them.

100% recommend Darcie, and would gladly work with her again.

What an amazing shoot last night with Darcie at PGD Photography, extremely professional throughout, a great range of poses, but also took direction and ideas as well. Fully recommended and look forward to working together again in the future! If you have the opportunity to shoot with Darcie - do not miss the chance!!

I had the pleasure of working with the amazing Darcie Louise for the first time on a 1-2-1 shoot at my Darwen studio. Pre shoot comms were perfect, Darcie arrived on time as planned and very well prepared with a super selection of outfits that fitted her style and our discussions perfectly.

Darcie is genuinely a lovely person with so much talent, creativeness, enthusiasm, and passion about her craft. Throughout the shoot Darcie was full of positive energy putting 110% effort into every idea and shot ensuring she brought my concept to life with an amazing Wow factor.

If you are lucky enough to work with this fantastic young lady, then you’re in for an amazing shoot. So very Highly recommended.

Thanks for your patience and a great shoot, looking forward to the next time very soon :)

Had the most epic shoot yesterday with Darcie at Victoria Baths in Manchester. Darcie is an absolute joy to work with- fun yet professional, creative and inventive. A real talent. We never stopped talking and made some amazing images. If you haven't worked with Darcie...you need to. I am looking forward to our next shoot!

Second shoot with the very talented Darcie Louise. Loved it from start to finish with extra time too. For this shoot we went to Silkwood Studios in Cleckheaton. Awesome time there lots of great outfits and images to edit. Highly Recommended is Darcie and Silkwood Studios if you are ever in that neck of the woods.

A lovely shoot with Darcie at Hardwick Hall and gardens. On time, dressed ready, make up done, Darcie is so easy to work with. Lots of really nice images when I get round to processing. Thank you Darcie.

Patrick Charlie Barnett

Awesome shoot today with Darcie. Lovely personality, professional attitude and great sense of humour. Time flew by - looking forward to the next shoot together.

Many thanks - just touch up on your pop music trivia for next session.

I had my 2nd shoot with Darcie, this time with her horse Hugo at the stables.

This was a good day as working with a model and a horse makes a change and especially with the help of her sister to get Hugo's attention. Hugo is a very nice and well groomed horse, and was very good with other people around him.

Darice is a very talented model and had a nice selection of outfits.

Thank you again Darcie and Hugo and of course your sister for helping out and the owners of the yard.

Darcie has everything you need in a model. She has excellent communication, she’s reliable, enthusiastic and smart. This makes her a great collaborator. I wouldn’t just recommend her, I’d happily shoot with anytime. Thanks Darcie, we shot some great stuff and I’m sure there will be other opportunities to do more.

I was so disappointed to miss Darcie on her last London visit but, fortunately, I did manage to get to work with her today.

Darcie is thoroughly professional in her approach whether it is arrangement and pre-shoot communications, the way she presents herself on the day, the preparations she makes and the efforts and abilities she shows throughout the shoot. Darcie poses easily, needing no real direction but quickly understands what the photographer wants to achieve and reacts accordingly. Her images can obviously show her incredible beauty but beyond that, she is articulate, intelligent and has the most wonderful personality. Darcie is an absolute joy to work with and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Thank you, Darcie, for a fabulous shoot. I hope to see you again soon!

Darcie came to London and I was very happy when she agreed to shoot with me. Having followed her unique look for a while, I was certainly not disappointed. A lovely, friendly and cooperative model, she was really positive, despite a few upsets that didn’t go to plan on this shoot! My ideas proved difficult to instigate after the venue closed on us, a security guard questioned us and the unwanted attention from some of the locals.. None of which fazed her at all. Despite these interruptions, we ended up with a few really cool images which I’m very happy with. Thank you Darcie. I Promise, if we get to shoot again, I’ll be more organised! Great communication from her and I would definitely recommend shooting with her, 100%! KJ

I had the pleasure of a four hour location shoot with Darcie. It is easy to see why she has become so popular on PP. Excellent pre shoot messaging, very photogenic looks, professional attitude, knows how to pose.

Throughout the shoot she happily followed my various suggestions. I ended up with two cards full of images, which I've never done before. That says something I think.

Highly recommended and Thank you Darcie.

Dan Photography

Had an amazing shoot with Darcie.

Darcie came well prepared for the ideas we wanted to shoot together. She moved through poses and styles really well.

Great fun to work with, would recommend to anyone, hope to work together again soon.

10th May 2023. Shot with Darcie Louise at her model day at VauHaus HQ\. Pre-shoot coms were excellent, Darcie and studio manager were ready and waiting when in arrived, parking outside was easy. Manager made coffee and showed me around, well maintained and very well decorated Edwardian house over three active floors Very well decorated in terms of finish and in terms of style, with plenty of ornaments, paintings, mirrors etc, many of which could be moved around to suit. We shot on two of the three floors, in all except two rooms during a two hour shoot. Darcie had a variety of very suitable outfits along the 'high fashion'/evening wear genre we had previously discussed. Darcie posed extremely well with very little instruction needed from myself, and I was left free to faff about with the lighting. We produced some excellent image sin my view, I just hope I did justice to Darcie's outfits and poses and did justice to a splendid location. Both are highly recommended !
