When Dave agreed to shoot with me again for my clothing line I was over the moon. Today we shot a variety of my outfits in Hampton Court palace. There was beautiful scenery and energy in the air!

I absolutely loved every minute of today's shoot it was incredible! Dave was literally breaking his back and burning his thighs to get the most incredible and perfect photos. Dave shoots from many different angels we did floor poses to standing poses and much more. As I moved Dave did too. He runs around taking great photos from many levels and angles. As I did some crazy poses he kept shooting as I was posing. We kept going non stop for hours and took 800 photos. Sparking and bouncing ideas of each other.

Shooting with Dave is addictive and some of the best fun I have ever had. We worked together to create the most incredible poses with the most unique and exotic ideas. Dave is very professional and extremely hard working. By the end of today's shoot we were both absolutely exhausted with huge smiles on our faces.

I was part of a collaboration yesterday involving me Dave and a new model to purple port Adri. I was a makeup Artist, chaperone and co-director for the photo shoot.

Dave was prompt and friendly to me and the new model. He took us to a beautiful location. Dave was incredibly professional and took loads of photos from different angles and perspectives. He took my ideas and the models on board and gave lots of his own ideas and input. Some incredible images to such a high standard were produced and we had such a fun day together! I would definitely recommend Dave. he is the most incredible and respectful photographer. Once again he produced such outstanding work. That can be used for the models portfolio as well as my portfolio as a makeup Artist.

Did an outdoor shoot with Dave during my visit to London in 2016 and had a great time. Dave is very friendly and professional; no touching or inappropriate comments. Understood what I wanted. Made me feel comfortable at all time.

I really enjoyed working with Dave today. He picked me up in his car and kindly drove me to Richmond. Dave is very chatty and friendly this put me at ease.

During the shoot Dave let me go wild and do all the poses wanted. He let me be myself and I felt really confident and comfortable. Dave accepted me for who I am and let me be absolutely nothing but myself. The shoot was fun and exciting there was lots of energy in the air. We tired loads of different looks and moods.

Dave really puts a lot of effort into his photography by getting down low and shoots from different angles. Dave runs around and takes lots of images from a huge variety of perspectives. Dave is also very supportive and encouraging.

We have produced some incredible images! Thankyou for one of the best shoots I've ever had! Thanks a bunch Dave.

Reference 202!

Shot with Dave for I think the third time, after a gap of many many years. He kindly picked me up and took us to Richmond park and scouted all the best locations. His enthusiasm for photography shines through and always makes sure I’m super happy and comfortable.

The shot flowed really well and we had such great fun.

There were some definite gems 💎 of images and Dave quickly sent the images which is fantastic.

Dave comes very well recommended - we finally did a shoot after not shooting together for around 7 years which was way too long!

He scouted an excellent location and knew all the best places where the light hit best.

Over 200+ positive references tell you all you need to know about what fun Dave is to shoot with!

Dave and I had a full day location shoot in the woods and by a lake. This was the first time I had worked with Dave, but hopefully it won't be the last! His communication and briefing were excellent and I knew exactly what to expect. Dave is a such a lovely man and was a complete pleasure to work with; his zest and enthusiasm for what he does really shone though and we had a lot of fun shooting together. I would highly recommend Dave as he is professional, creative and a really lovely person to work alongside. Thank you so much for a great day!

I did a lingerie shoot with Dave in my home. He is an absolutely fantastic photographer and takes amazing photos! He loves his 'bum' shots and is a very energetic and enthusiastic guy! I thought Dave was great at directing me and at the same time allowed me to do poses that I wanted to achieve. He pushed me out of my comfort zone and I tried out new poses but I felt comfortable doing them as Dave made me feel very relaxed. He is full of fun and very entertaining. I had such a laugh working with him and he is a really decent and genuine guy who just wants to enjoy life. He is definitely one of if not the kindest photographers I've worked with and I'd recommend him to anyone. Would really love to shoot again with him in the near future!

Had a fab shoot with Dave yesterday- Dave was a very encouraging and professional photographer to work with. I felt comfortable and had a laugh as well as getting some pictures I am genuinely really proud of. Thanks for putting up with my craziness Dave!

I had the pleasure of working with Dave and the wonderful Rebecca Sophia on a recent shoot. Dave is a really warm, friendly and vastly experienced photographer. It's easy to see why so many models have left so many glowing references - within minutes of meeting him you feel like you've known him all your life! As a (nearly) new photographer it was a great experience watching and learning from Dave, not just in terms of his meticulous approach to selecting settings and composing shots, but also in terms of how he conducts himself as a photographer.

He really is a credit to the photographic community, an all round good egg and it goes without saying, highly recommended.

I shot with Dave again today with another photographer, and as always it was a pleasure to shoot with him. Dave is a great guy, very chatty and lovely to talk to. Thoroughly recommended... again!

I had another shoot with Dave few days ago... Probably it was our 50th time shooting together (I've lost count!) :)

He is a good friend of mine, and it's always fun to work with him. He is very chatty, funny, and he always has lots of ideas, so you will never be bored :)

Would definitely recommend him to any model!

Had my second shoot with Dave today, as was just as fun, if not more, than the first! He is full of enthusiasm, passion and skill. I most enjoyed the dance posing in the beautiful sunshine in Richmond Park. I think we got some great shots in long flouty fabrics and a tutu, dispite me forgetting my leotard, which he won't let me live down! Haha.

He's extremely encouraging and a great person as well as a skilled tog.

Thanks Dave! :-)

Dave attended one of my Big Group Outdoors fashion shoots last weekend, which is the 3rd or 4th one he's come to. He's always cheerful, friendly and fun to have around. He's a lovely guy and puts the models at their ease, as well as taking some great images. I'd recommend him without hesitation. He's always positive and uplifting.

Dave made his third appearance at one of my Big Outdoor Group Fashion shoots and I regularly invite him, because he always contributes so much to the shoot and to the day itself. He is friendly, fun, helpful and an all round good guy. I highly recommend him.
