I had yet another shoot with Darryl at my home today. It's always great fun working with him, shoots are relaxed, enjoyable & fly by!

Darryl is always full of ideas and ensures you are comfortable throughout! Already planning our next shoot. Highly recommended.

I had a fantastic shoot with Darryl today. Our theme was the 1960's and I think we pulled it off really well!

Darryl's communication was excellent, We met up for a coffee before hand to discuss Shoot plans and I am really glad we did because I got to meet him and it meant we were very organised for our shoot.

Darryl is so friendly and nice and easy to chat to. He also has some great ideas to try on the shoot, it was very easy to follow his direction

.

I am really looking forward to our next shoot and I recommend him 100%

I had an absolutely wonderful time shooting with Darryl last week! His pre-shoot communications were great, we arranged the shoot well in advance and from the off set Darryl was very informative and good at keeping in touch with me, making sure all the arrangements for the shoot were properly arranged and keeping me informed of the ideas he wanted to work on on the day!

Darryl turned up right on time and from the work go was friendly, chatty and very fun to be around! It was so easy chatting to him and I thoroughly enjoyed his company throughout the entire day! His happy and easy going attitude instantly puts a model at ease and makes for a calm and yet very productive day!

Darryl is very skilled with both natural and studio lighting, he flowed effortlessly between a whole host of styles/lighting/ and prop set ups without the bat of an eyelid! He shoots very efficiently but is also highly creative, always trying to think of ways to make the shot better and get the best results from the model he working with! All of this adds up for a great combination, meaning a great range of beautiful and creative shots are created!

It was a wonderful days shooting, Darryl is as great a person as he is a photographer, you cannot go wrong working with him! :)

Well well well what can I say!! Darryl booked me for a second shoot down in South Wales yesterday! We had sooooo much fun! I think he's a legend! Really nice guy with loads of enthusiasm and a willingness to try new concepts and adapt his photography to my style of modelling. He listened incredibly well, communicated well and went away with some exceptional images that I can't wait to share. Highly recommended and can't wait to work with him again soon!

Well what can I say .. I have shot with Daryl several times now and I can honestly say what a gentleman he is .. His pre shoot comms are A++ he always has time to chat and help everyone relax ..!

I got a little lost in wales on this particular shoot, Daryl was there at the end of the phone talking me through Bridge-end.

He is patience polite and never hurries hair and make up . Daryl know what he wants from the shoot and always gets that perfect shot .. I would recommend him to any Mua creative or model for future work .. Thanks Daryl your a star .. Look forward to the next shoot . 😊 x

I worked with Darryl for the first time this week, he is a very nice guy, good sense of humour, very professional and is sensitive to the models needs. We had a great shoot and I hope to work with Darryl again soon.

Another fab day working with Darryl at Maunsel House. He sorted an amazing MUA and hair stylist, and we got some lovely images. Thanks so much :)

Rebecca Leah

I have shot with Darryl a few times now. He is a great guy, really easy to work with and creates some lovely images! Highly recommended x

Amelee Hugo

This was my first shoot with Darryl and a thoroughly enjoyable one!! In fact, we want to do it all again!

I would highly recommend Darryl, a gentle guy who made me feel totally at ease and helped direct me throughout. I came home feeling "top gun". Yet to see the images but they looked great on the back of the camera

Thank you so much :) xx

Darryl and I shot together on Tuesday 4th for 2 hours at a studio he had hired.

He made me feel very welcome and had lots of his own ideas.

He stuck to the two hour time slot and was not at all pushy in any way.

I would work Darryl again.

Recommend :)

It's great working with Darryl when he hires the studio. He is very professional and a great customer. Always welcome!

Considering I was a fill in last minute. I really enjoyed working with Darryl, the studio was great and he really made me feel at ease. Could have a laugh and a joke with him, which is always a good thing. Got some great shots and he wasn't afraid to tell me when the angles I was using worked. If you haven't worked with Darryl yet I suggest you get in touch with him you won't be disappointed, I've got some amazing shots and I'm really happy with them.

Ron Powell

I had the pleasure to have another joint shoot with Darryl to day.

Darryl and I have had many shoots together and I have found him to be the most Professional and Friendliest of People. Also one of the easiest Photographers I have worked with. He will stand back and let you set the shot up. He may then, suggest a little tweak to the concept that will make a good shot a great shot.

I have also noticed how much he is respected and liked by the Models that he sometimes arrives with. Darryl, you are always welcome at my Studio.

Looking forward to the next Shoot….

Hannah Foster

I have worked with Darryl lots of times, and did so again today at my studio day at Studio CC. As usual it was great fun, Darryl is full of ideas and is a great guy to work with. He's considerate, fun and relaxed. Darryl has a great eye for detail and is a really lovely guy.

Love working with Darryl & I look forward to our next shoot :)

Highly recommended
