Had my 6th shoot today with the delightful DaryaM. We know each other quite well now so there is no ice-breaking required.

As ever, communications prior were exellent and productive so that Darya arrived at my home studio with all the outfits we had discussed and more. After a relaxed coffee discussing how we would go on the shoot worked out brilliantly and we finished up with what look like a great selection of images that I've now got to find time to edit - always a pleasure of course.

Thanks as ever Darya for you input, response to my ideas and untold patience with this still-learning tog. Whole heartedly recommended and looking forward to our next get together.

Had the great pleasure of working with my good friend Darya on another fun and productive shoot.

Once again theme and location were agreed well in advance and she turned up on time ready for our first theme. Always happy to add her own input which I feel is one of her many strengths.

Darya is fun to be around, great to chat too, an amazing, stunning, hard-working model and a delight to work with.

We enjoyed a well-deserved drink which gave us a chance to catch up and also discuss future shoots.

I cannot recommend Darya highly enough and I look forward to working with her again soon.

Thanks Darya

Fourth shoot with the delightful Darya on a walkabout round Chichester cathedral gardens. As always, pre-comms were excellent and Darya was perfectly prepared. No extra words needed really as we seem to have become friends and quite a good team. Already planning our next meeting. Highly recommended.

Had another fantastic shoot with the amazing Darya and, as always, it was a fun and productive time. Despite an awful journey for both of us she turned up with her usual smile and ready to start work... a true professional.

We managed a couple of different styles in the various locations we had picked for the shoot. Always happy to go along with my suggestions for poses she is also happy to put forward her own ideas.

Not only is Darya a lovely model but a great friend. We always have fun during our time working together, which always goes by too fast. She is chatty, hard working and an absolute pleasure to be around.

I have no hesitation in recommending Darya and look forward to our next shoot.

Thanks Darya.

Had my second shoot with Darya last weekend and once again it was a most enjoyable and productive session. Communication were, as previously , very effective and timely. Having met for our first shoot only quite recently we were quickly into relaxed and productive sets. As before, Darya injected her own delightful style into the various poses and once again was wonderfully patient with me as I continue to get to grips with this strange new world of studio lighting.

A little shy on first meeting, Darya responds and relaxes quickly making her interesting and enjoyable to work with.

Heartily recommended.

Had my first shoot with Darya two days ago and what a pleasant experience it was. I have recently set up a small home studio and wanted a couple of shoots to get accustomed to the new lights etc and Darya was kind enough to offer her services.

Precomms were prompt and efficient and we agreed some broad outlines in advance.

Darya is a charming and chatty young lady who was happy to go with my ideas as well as injecting her own. She was also extremely patient with my hesitant use of the new setup for which I was very grateful. We shot several sets, got some great images and already talking about our next shot. Heartily recommended.

First time shooting with the lovely Darya since the chaos of Covid has limited shoots all around. Darya has a natural beauty and a willingness to experiment. So today a Spanish style dress, Charleston and then brief shoot around a slightly Gothic look. Darya morphs well into all the styles that you throw at her. An engaging smile and lovely pleasant manner throughout. Highly recommended and will certainly be looking forward to future shoots with Darya in the future. Thank you.

It was great to have the opportunity to work with the amazing Darya once again, our ninth shoot.

As always theme and location were agreed well in advance and on the day of the shoot she turned up on time with a great selection of outfits.

We managed four different styles at a local wooded area and beach. She had her own ideas of what she wanted to achieve but was also happy to go along with my suggestions, however crazy they were.

Not only is Darya a wonderful and beautiful model who always gives 100% but she is also a lovely young lady who is fun to be around, chatty and a pleasure to work with.

We discussed a number of ideas for future shoots and I can’t wait to work with her again.

I have no hesitation in recommending Darya.

Spent a couple of hours with the wonderful Darya again today, this time on her first swimwear photoshoot. It was our eighth shoot and as always she was an absolute pleasure to work with.

She did not hesitate to get in the sea for some great shots and was happy to go along with my ideas as well as adding her own input.

I have said it many times before but will say it again… Darya is a lovely young lady, a stunning model, hard-working, great company and so much fun to be around.

If there is a downside to working with her it is just the fact that the time always goes too quickly 😊

We already have another shoot planned and I am sure there will be many more to follow.

I have no hesitation in recommending her.

Thank you x

My first opportunity to work with Darya, (incredible really as she and are to close in terms of distance).

It was a delightful and productive session and I would like to thank Darya for really putting a great rendition of my ideas.

Most definitely recommended ... and thank you again.

It was great having the chance to shoot with Darya at Barney's charity group shoot at the weekend. I have met Darya before at previous events but never had the opportunity to shoot with her.

I found Darya very easy to get on with, and we definetly had fun shooting together experimenting with different ideas, including playing a guitar which I don't think she had done before. Darya had brought along an excellent selection of outfits which all really suited her, and worked well with the location.

We were also fortunate that it finally stopped raining so we were able to shoot outside too.

Darya is lovely person to work with, and l would shoot with her again anytime, and I would highly recommend her.

Thank you Darya :)

Had the opportunity to work with the lovely Darya again and, as always, it was a wonderful time with a beautiful model.

Despite the wet weather we managed to capture some great images and at no point did she let the rain put her off.

Darya is not only a fantastic model but she is hard-working, professional and fun to be around. She gives 100% at every shoot and I always enjoy our time working together.

I have no hesitation in recommending Darya to other photographers.

We have already discussed other shoots and I am sure we will be working together again very soon.

Thanks Darya :)

I have worked with the lovely Darya many times and our latest shoot was another wonderful experience. She had agreed to try something new and we booked a hotel room for a lingerie/boudoir shoot. She turned up with a great selection of outfits which, along with the props I supplied, gave us the chance to try many different ideas.

Darya has an amazing figure and worked hard during the shoot to produce some stunning images. She was happy to go along with my suggestions as well as putting forward her own ideas and her confidence in tackling a new style shows in the results.

She is talkative, fun, great company and an absolute pleasure to work with. Oh, and did I say she has the most beautiful smile.

Can’t wait for our next shoot.

Thanks Darya x

My fifth shoot with the lovely Darya and once again a wonderful experience. We had been in regular contact and she was happy to go along with my idea of a rebel schoolgirl. What I didn’t expect was the great outfit she bought along. Rather than the typical look she went for her own take on a traditional Latvian/East European school uniform, and she looked stunning… and naughty 😊 She was happy to go along with my suggestions and we were both pleased with the results.

Darya is a beautiful young lady with a gorgeous smile and great personality. She is fun to be around and works hard throughout the shoot to create the images we were both after. I am sure we will be working together again very soon as we have discussed other ideas. I can’t wait.

I have no hesitation in recommending her.

Thanks Darya 😊 x

I had the opportunity to photograph the lovely Darya when I was mentoring another photographer who set up the photoshoot. Darya was obliging, enthusiastic and patient; and she takes direction well. Darya is an absolute breeze to work with, and on top of that she has the most beautiful smile! I do recommend her to other photographers!

Third shoot with Darya. Again an excellent shoot with this lovely lady. Darya was patient as I was being mentored at the time so the shoot was slower and less flowing than I had done before. Darya is happy to go along with the ideas that I have given her every time and has looked great in all the images that I have produced. A wonderful model with an engaging smile and positive attitude to her work. Will be working with Darya in the future. Until the next time Thank you.

Great first shoot with Darya to. On time and so much done. Was a pleasure to work with/

Just finished clearing up the studio and backing up the images from my fabulous first-time shoot with the delightful Darya. In addition to being very attractive, Darya is a very gentle and considerate person. She is also very keen to learn and highly suited to my style of vintage pinup work.

She is a very hard-working and enthusiastic sort of girl. She actually read the shoot plan, researched the genre and even practised some poses before the shoot. She came well-equipped and took care of all those little details right down to having matching lips, fingernails and toenails. She even bought a waist-training corset specially for the shoot – which looked fabulous on her petite but curvy figure.

Despite having given birth to her second child only seven months ago, her figure is remarkably trim. This is enhanced by her excellent posture. Fortunately for me she lives reasonably close to my studio. We’re already planning to do a series of pinup-orientated fitness shoots, charting her progress as she continues getting back into shape after her pregnancies.

Lovely model, lovely person – and very highly recommended.

Second shoot with the lovely Darya. Again delightful to work with and really responsive to the wacky ideas that I had for her. Darya has proven track record and has an engaging smile. Great company and good fun with it. Darya is very photogenic and a great model. Will certainly be working with Darya again in the future. Highly recommended to all photographers. Thank you.

Peter Lewry

Had the chance to work with Darya again and it was another amazing shoot. We discussed themes and locations well before the shoot and she turned up on time, ready to go with a great selection of clothing.

Darya is fun to be around, hard working and poses well with little or no direction and was happy to go along with my suggestions.

We have discussed more shoots and I am sure we will be working together again very soon.

Highly recommneded.

Thanks Darya x
