I worked with Darryl recently at Far Forest Studio (it's been quite a while since our last shoot) and he was really lovely - easy going, friendly, professional and considerate. We enjoyed good weather and worked around the gardens, waterfall and forest, and also used the studio. Darryl brought some outfits and accessories himself which we incorporated together with my own styling, merging our ideas, creating some lovely images! Thanks Darryl, best wishes :-)

I love working with Aperture photography. He booked onto my studio day at full moon studio like he did last time. We always work really well together and understands what each other like to shoot. We shot some beautiful classical nudes with foils and props. They turned out so well. Darryl is a lovely friendly man with an amazing taste in jewellery I must say! Can’t wait for the opportunity to work with him again. I would recommend for sure.

I had an amazing first shoot with Darryl. He was at the studio in Ebbw Vale early to set up and was very prepared. Darryl had brought along with him some props and outfits to wear on the shoot. We worked together on some stand out looks and he always has attention to detail. We shot a variety from fashion to glamour and art nude.

I was shown back of the camera images going along and I am very happy with what I seen. Darryl was professional and friendly throughout. Also a good laugh! Recommended :)

Had a fantastic 2nd shoot with Darryl, after a good 6 year gap! Darryl is very creative and talented as a photographer and as a person he is really lovely, relaxed and fun to shoot with! Highly recommend and hope we don’t leave it so long next time. X

Had an EXQUISITE shoot with Darryl at a friends home studio. Darryl is really chatty, creative & very easy to work with. In fact (he will probably kill me for putting this but he is actually a secret legend... seriously ask him about the past work he has done, it may surprise you as much as it did me) Darryl is all about working different angles and experimenting with lighting and he brought a long a few items of clothing & accessories which turned out really well. He is also open to suggestions with his work so its a real team effort. Already discussing our next shoot as we gelled straight away and I'm very much looking forward to it. I love the images he created. Fantastic work & thank you for such a fun shoot :)

Amazing to work with, really professional and also a friendly person. I enjoyed my shoot, it was the second time we had the chance to work together. I was more than happy with the images, creative and directed well.

What a great shoot I had at Far Forest with Darryl along side my duo modelling partner Melany.

Darryl was so friendly and relaxed throughout the shoot and came up with some really interesting concepts which added something extra to shoot.

Thank you so much for a brilliant shoot Darryl hope our paths cross again.

Great shoot with Darryl at Far Forest with myself and my duo modelling parter Retro Rob. We had a fun couple of hours shooting indoors and outdoors and covered a range of looks.

Many thanks Darryl for the booking.

I shot with Darryl recently on my first ever Gloucestershire tour.

Such a lovely and down to earth guy. I felt so relaxed working with him, I actually felt like I knew him as he reminded me of someone back home.

We shot at the full moon studio and worked through loads of sets. Images look great :)

I cannot recommend him enough and very much looking forward to working with him again in the future.

Thank you so much for a great shoot.
