I shot with David this week at a workshop I was modelling at. Friendly, easy to work with and our shoot flowed well.

I highly recommend him

David came to shoot yesterday at my pool with his model Eliza Watson. His pre comms was fantastic and he arrived on time! He kept the pool clean and tidy and was very respectful of the facilities. I left him and Eliza to their own devices, feeling confident they would be fine. Really appreciated his respect for my facilities and would be happy to have him again. Highly recommended.

Firstly, any apologies for such a late reference! I genuinely thought I had done this already!!!

I had my first shoot with David at Spitfire Studio in Swindon at the beginning of this year. David's pre shoot comms were excellent and it was very easy to sort a shoot with him. He came across well in messages and upon meeting I found him to be a warm and friendly person. He had stacks of ideas which we worked through quickly and with ease. We managed to get through alot in our four hour shoot.

I have another shoot booked in very soon with David at my home and I know we will have another great shoot.

Very much recommended!

Had a fantastic shoot today with David. Pre comms was great, he arrived on time and he was extremely warm and friendly. I felt at ease straight away. We captured some great shots in my indoor pool and David was fab with direction. I was really pleased with the photos we got. I would definitely shoot with David again, it was a real pleasure and honour to shoot with him. Thank you David. Highly recommended.

Looking forward to our shoot next month

Another lovely shoot with David, this time at my airbnb in Reading.

We worked out way through the various different areas there were to shoot in the apartment and from what I saw got some really nice results :)

It's always a pleasure working with him and he is really easy to chat to!

Would happily recommend him and hope to see him next time I visit the area :)

My second shoot with David at Spitfire studios yesterday was amazing! He was my second shoot after having my baby 7 months ago so I was a little nervous & not as confident as I was before but that soon changed. We got straight into it, worked through so many sets in the 4 hours & time flew.

David had lots of ideas, set ups & items to wear which worked really well with each set. He was chatty throughout, made sure I was okay, allowed breaks & showed me the back of the camera each time so I knew what we was getting.

So pleased with our images so I'm really looking forward to seeing the final edits & who knows maybe I'll get to work with David again in the future.

Lovely guy, highly recommended to all models :) x

Had a lovely second shoot with David at Spitfire Studio Swindon. This time, we shot lingerie and then bikinis in a fitness style. As before, can highly recommend him.

His pre comms were great and he endeavoured to send me photos of all the different outfits he'd like to use on the shoot so that he could ensure I was comfortable. He came well organised with all the different pieces to wear, and was considerate to make sure he'd turned the heating on well prior to starting so that I was warm enough.

David is so easy to chat to and a genuinely nice person, and this really makes the difference in a shoot - it made the whole time feel completely relaxed and fun, and time flew by.

David knows his way really well around a studio, and can manipulate lighting with ease to get what he wants without fuss. He effortlessly switched from a soft style for the lingerie, to harder more intense lighting for fitness, and we got some beautiful images in both genres that look completely different!

David doesn't 'flog a dead horse' when it comes to ideas and outfits, he shoots only til he's got the best out of a setup and outfit and then moves on. I like his approach as it keeps it fun and varied, and we ended up with a whole bunch of different sets!

Really love the work we produced and had a lovely time. I'd definitely recommend David!

I had a wonderful shoot with David. Excellent pre-shoot communication led to a productive session. David is a consummate professional - easy going with a great sense of humour. Time passed all too quickly. He comes highly recommended - don't hesitate if you get the chance to work for him.

Wow...had my second shoot with David last week and it was even better than the first shoot. Loved the fact that David shared his ideas and concepts in advance of the shoot to achieve amazing images. I was so excited looking at the back of the camera and couldn't believe what he had captured let alone the experience of seeing the darker, more mysterious side to me - stretching my imagination. Loved it!!!

Thanks David for a fantastic shoot and again the great comms and can't wait to see more of your images.

Highly recommended to work with David.

I've worked with David for many years now and each time we shoot it's still the same old banter.

David is super organised, always polite and chatty.

Was shocked David came out of his Comfort zone today and tried a little more moody Lighting. Loved the shots!

Highly recommended as always.

Much love

Had a great shoot with David at Spitfire Studio. The time flew by as David made the most of the time available, swapping lighting setups, backgrounds and styles and creating entirely different looks all within the same space. He was apt with setting up different lighting to create various different effects, I particularly loved the strong fitness lighting and also the softer moodier feel. He also was well organised bringing props to complement my outfits as well as all the necessities when using baby oil and water. His Pre shoot comms were great, he was there on time, and knew his way around all the kit in the studio making for a really smooth stress free shoot.

He communicated his ideas really well, and often checked in showing me the back of the camera so I could adjust posing and get a feel for what he was creating - which I loved! As a person, David was relaxed, easy to talk to, and respectful at all times. Would absolutely work with him again and am looking forward to seeing the results of our great shoot!

Had a brilliant shoot with David yesterday! It's the first time of shot with David on location and it was so much fun. We used a pool for the shoot, and David worked like I had not seen him do so before!

Of course there natural limitations of any indoor location such as availability of light and sometimes space, but this didn't hinder David at all.

He knows how to manipulate light really well, and was very adaptive, knowing the best way to set things up for the location. David is also really productive on shoots, not overshooting once he's got what he needs from a set. I love working this way as time flies by and I get loads of variation in style and pose.

David is also a brilliant stylist! He brought outfits specifically suited to the location which I loved wearing. We worked from fitness looking bikini, to lingerie to some soft implied shots. Each set David knew how to capture the most flattering angle for the style.

As before, David is very organised and comes well prepared for every shoot. His pre and post comms were brilliant, and I feel totally at ease in his company. He's lovely to chat to between sets and is very respectful, allowing you space to change and do makeup and hair when needed.

Great shoot David, thank you!

What a lovely gent and talented photographer

David and I got some amazing shots today I actually loved the majority of them, can't wait to see them!

Covered things I've kit covered before and pre Comms were just fab.

Had fun, had a laugh and got some great shots. David brought along props, which was amazing and he sent me enough info on where to go and how to get there aswell as what to pack!

Amazing day. I would highly recommend David and if he would work with me again I know I certainly would work with him 😊 thank you David x

I had a 2nd shoot with David at Spitfire Studio. Good communication and pre comms. David gave me a list of his idea's before the shoot, this helped me pack the outfits for the chosen styles for the shoot. David was full of great idea's for the shoot. David is great to work with, friendly, chatty and easy to get on with. David showed me the images he had taken on the back of the camera, and he produced a lovely batch of images. David is professional and respectful. It was a great shoot, and I highly recommend David 100%.

Thank you for a lovely shoot. :-)

I had my first shoot with David yesterday and it was fantastic. I had an incredible day working with David at Spitfire Studios in Swindon.

David's preshoot comms were great and very helpful from the details on the location of the studio and what to take and also the ideas he had for the shoot. Made it very easy from the start to the finish.

David has a fab sense of humour and I did and, do apologise for getting the giggles.

We worked through so many ideas the time just flew by.

The back of the cam images surprised me and was very impressed (couldn't believe they were me :-)) - David really knows his techniques and use of lighting.

Love David's work and certainly hope to shoot with David again. I highly recommend working with David, a great photographer and person to work with.
