Shot with Darren today whilst he was touring the South West, and I'm so glad I did!

Darren rocked up with a huge variety of clothing and props, and provided me with a massive selection to choose from!

We started off with Steampunk and men's fashion, then worked on some art nude, he moved from pose to pose with ease, and happily took direction when I asked for something specific.

Such a lovely, fun guy to work with, we had a laugh and chatted away merrily about all sorts. Had a great time shooting with him, and will definitely book him again when he's next in the area!

Thanks again Darren! :)

I photographed Darren for the first time yesterday, something I've been meaning to do for about the last 3 years.

Darren is one of the most professional and hard-working models i have ever worked with, dedicated and versatile. He came with many props and outfits. He is incredibly photogenic, very expressive and no direction needed. A talented model who will bring all his talent and experience to your project.

I highly recommend Darren to anyone who is looking for a Super talented male model.

Lizzie Bayliss

I had the pleasure of modelling with Darren on a duo day at Sandon Studio last Saturday and couldn’t be happier with how the shoot went.

Darren is really great to model with, having a relaxed and easy-going personality with an expressive and diverse posing style.

Darren has a great look for a variety of styles, being able to portray strong and masculine styles as well as soft and serene styles. He can pose for contextual roles as well as dynamic art nudes or images with humour. He was well equipped with plenty of well presented and stylish wardrobe options including interesting accessories and hats. His personality made the shoot atmosphere enjoyable and fun and I felt relaxed throughout the day.

I really hope to have the opportunity of working with Darren again, and if you are thinking of working with a male model, he is someone you should definitely book.

Best wishes,

Lizzie

In Search of That Perfect Shot..............

Had a fabulous shoot with Darren & Lizzie yesterday. I hadn't shot with Darren before and have to say he was amazing. I explained in pre-comms the type of shoot I was looking for and he went with the ideas. Lizzie, I have shot with a few times now, and she was awesome as ever. When given and idea she works with you and builds on the idea in her creative way to get amazing results. They worked very well together and I couldn't have wished for better. Thank you Darren & Lizzie.

Darren's skills as a model are matched by his personality - he has a fluid posing style, he takes any concept and runs with it, and he's a very pleasant gentleman. I had the opportunity to shoot with Darren as a part of a duo shoot with Lizzie Bayliss, and both were happy to fully embrace every idea that I put to them, and enhance those ideas with their own creative input. Even though the temperatures were below zero and the snow was coming down, the idea of shooting outside didn't phase Darren at all, he delivered in every single shot.

Once the shoot moved indoors, Darren continued to take on and develop the ideas and concepts, working excellently with Lizzie. He is an absolute pleasure to work with, and I hope that our paths will cross again soon! Fully recommended.

I was recommended Darren and had seen him on PP of course. Little did I know how much of the perfect gent and professional he is. Teamed up with Roswell Ivory I was able to create some amazing Body scapes at the On film Photography Studio in tamworth.

Darren was a able to creates some amazing shapes and with his experience was also able to help me with new ideas as well.

Highly recommended and I hope we work together again.

Roswell Ivory

Darren rocks- we did our second photoshoot a couple of weeks ago and posed both together and separately. He's so much fun to work with, very easygoing and can get a fantastic shot in just one take!

I'd recommend him to models and photographers wholeheartedly. See you next time! :)

Finally got to work with Darren at Natural Light Space Studio - he is great to work with - we had spoken beforehand about the type of images we were looking for and he arrived early and well prepared. Nothing was too much trouble for him and he worked hard to help achieve the desired results.

Definitely recommend and hope we get to work with him again in the future

Darren was great with pre shoot communications to discuss in full what we were hoping to achieve and make sure he had the right selection of clothing and props on the day.

He arrived early and was an absolute pleasure to work with - got a great mix of serious and some fun shots on the day and would highly recommend him

Hope we get the chance to work together again

Artemis Fauna

Yet another awesome shoot with Darren! :D

We hosted an epic film noir event yesterday night (night time-shooting) and we rocked it.

It's kinda become tradition for us to duo-up around Halloween and I hope we can keep doing it! Darren is always super to work with and such a nice guy to hang out with.

Love the images and cant recommend Darren enough! :)

John Simpson

Worked with Darren on a Film Noir event with Artemis Fauna last weekend. A real pro and a lovely guy. Highly recommended.

I had been planning a shoot with Darren for quite sometime. Finally, we shoot on amazing mountain scene on North Wales. He is friendly, easy to work with and great sense of humour. Excellent pre-communications, turn up on time and ready to shoot.

During the shoot, he was creative, always put ideas and %100 effort into it. We create some fantastic images. Looking forward to working with him again.

Highly recommended!

Sensual Art

Some models turn up and do what's asked. Not Darren.

Darren took the brief which I gave him, then not only sourced a handful of suitable locations for it but completed the style to fit within it, turned up ready to shoot, completely nailed the picture that I'd had in my mind at the outset, helping me to refine the first couple of attempts at it along the way.

And when presented with a mad opportunity to wade through a river to do some art nudes on a rock in the middle of a waterfall, went that extra mile to produce some fantastic bonus shots for my day!

Thank you Darren!

Velvet Fox

I worked with Darren today on a duo shoot in North Wales and wow what a great guy he is! Darren kindly picked me up from the station and was a pleasure to meet and shoot with. He worked fantastically and was happy to jump in the water and lend a hand over the slippery rocks to me (thank you). He is very professionally and easy to work with, I know we will got some fantastic images today. I would highly recommend him and really hope to work with him again in the future :)

Andrew McQueen Furniture

Another great shoot with Darren yesterday advertising my business in different locations, having the pleasure of working with Darren every month for most of the year he has always been very professional and never let me down at all, always giving his all. I can't recommend Darren enough for his energy and enthusiasm he throws into his craft.

Calandra

What a great guy Darren is. Good communication, knowledge, ideas and boundless enthusiasm to deliver great images. I admit to being a bit apprehensive about working with a male model for the first time and pitching in a male model with a female model he had never met. I should have had no worries as Darren is a good communicator and makes everything fun and light-hearted, whilst being professional at what he does. He gelled perfectly with our female model. We were lucky with the weather and the whole shoot was very successful. Thanks Darren. If you are thinking or working with a male model and you have no previous experience then go for Darren first!

Calandra booked Darren and I for a duo shoot yesterday in Scotland. Darren arrived early for the shoot and was really easy to get along with from the moment we met, I felt conpletely relaxed shooting with him and I think that helped us to pose tofether very naturally.

I really enjoyed the shoot (despite the cold scottish sea, but Darren helped with that by picking me up haha). He was good at communicating with myself and the photographer and really brough a lot to the shoot!

Very highly recommended and I hope to work with him again!

I had another excellent studio shoot with Darren yesterday. As always everything was perfect - communications, being there well on time, well prepared and with a sections of super outfits. This guy is just the best and I highly recommend him.
