References for Dean M

Arabella

It turns out I hadn’t left a reference for Dean and how terrible of me!

It certainly wasn’t a reflection on our shoot! As that was epic!

Dean booked onto one of my remote events that was themed. Moroccan styling.

I thought Dean was lovely! He was friendly and chatty! Making the shoot relaxed! It absolutely flew by!

But the main thing is we got some absolutely beautiful images!

Highly recommended both in person and remotely!

Thanks again Dean & I hope we get to shoot again in person or remotely!

I shot with Dean for the first time today at a group shoot organised by Martin Newton. Dean is very kind and polite with a great sense of humour. The images he captures are superb and I was very impressed with just the raw images from the back of the camera. It was a pleasure to work with him and I hope to do so again soon!

Summers Abroad

Dean joined our B.E.A.C.H event for the full weekend and we had an absolute blast!! It was our creative collection event of the summer so we had multiple themes all under one roof; Sci-Fi, 70’s, Copa Cabana, Arabian Nights, Venice Beach and Movie Night. And of course as he was booked on the weekend we had a wrap party on the Sunday night in true Summers Abroad style haha!!

We always love hosting Dean on our events, he gets on with everybody really well and is an event organisers dream!

Highly recommended by us :)

I recently had my first in person shoot with Dean on a duo event at NLS with Carla Monaco.

In the four hours we had we covered a large variety of genres and styles. The shoot was relaxed and chatty but we got a lot done.

Images so far look lovely- looking forward to seeing more from the shoot and hopefully working with Dean again- in person on 1-2-1 shoots or events, or remotely. :)

2W Location

Well what a lovely guy Dean is - his first visit to Two Wei and we must have done something right as he's re-booked to come again - FOUR times!

Dean is very easy to get on with, chatty with a good sense of humour. He worked exceptionally well with his model and we're delighted to see a reflection of his time here through the images he's captured of Ellie.

Dean is enthusiastic and professional in approach, respectful of his model and above all clearly wishes everyone to have a great experience on his shoot.

We're very happy to recommend Dean to anyone he wishes to work with and look forward to welcoming him back very soon.

Had such a fabulous shoot with Dean!

We'd worked together previously at a workshop, after which I knew we absolutely had to work 1-1. He's such a lovely guy to be around and chat to and I was always made to feel comfortable.

We worked together super well, and our ideas blended together perfectly. I love how passionate he is about creating awesome images - something we have definitely done (an FPI already!). It was a very enjoyable shoot.

I'd recommend working with Dean without question and I can't wait to work together again in the future!

Thank you again :)

Had a great shoot with Dean, as always, at Splashpoint studio, a first for me! It was soooo worth the trip! Shot some great concepts at the brilliant sets at the studio, some were my ideas some were his some were spur of the moment visions. Had so much fun, got some fab BTS content and our first ever selfie! We had a pizza FEAST which was ace! I love working with Dean and have so so many ideas and concepts I want to work on together, someday.. (soon hopefully!) thanks Dean!

Dean and I have worked together on a few occasions now, albeit remotely. He's such a pleasure to work with, ever so caring and always checking if the model is okay - he's incredibly accommodating. His pre shoot communications were excellent and well thought out so we had a vague plan before we headed out into the heat of location work. Despite battling 8 hours worth of traffic, he was raring to go and his enthusiasm for photography is clear to see.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dean and wi contained contained do so, he's a perfectly gentleman and so kind.

Thankyou for a fab shoot!

Finally shot with Dean in person after many remote shoots and it was lovely! Dean is a very approachable and nice photographer to shoot with, he is very involved is the modelling & photography community and is so enthusiastic about it all the which sets up for a great shoot.

Dean is really easy going,we had no set plans for the shoot but alongside catching up we managed to fit in a few amazing outfits which Dean captured so nicely! Excited to see the finished results! I’d absolutely recommend shooting with Dean and I look forward to working with him again soon.

Had a wonderful shoot with Dean at my home studio! We spent most the time battling background and chatting as always haha! But managed to get some lovely images too!

Dean joined me and my husband afterwards for a meal out and it was really lovely catching up :)

Happily recommend!

Wonderful shoot with Dean! We shot briefly at Tabitha Bowdell’s event however he booked me for 1-2-1 half day and it flew by! I’m so glad he booked me again as we got on so well at the event. Dean is very chatty and will have lots of interesting stories to keep you entertained throughout the day, but he’s also very hard working and focused when it comes to getting the shots. The images turned out amazing and I already can’t wait to work with Dean again in the not so distant future.

Highly recommend!

Thank you!

This lovely chap who's name is Dean booked a whole 6 hours on my studio day at the Boardroom and it's possibly the most fun I've had!

Dean has allowed me to shoot according to my plan and ideas I wanted to try. I'm so thankful he trusted my direction and we've got such a variety of looks in within that time :) Dean also was very kind and documented plenty of BTS for me to use on my Instagram.

Really enjoyed this shoot - I would be keen to shoot what we've briefly discussed next, let's keep in touch about it :)

100% recommend

It was a pleasure to finally work with Dean on Tabitha Boydell’s events. Dean was amazing to work with, very professional and chatty which distracted me from the cold!

We didn’t get long to shoot as there were other photographers too but we have now our first 1-2-1 booking in the bag!

Highly recommend Dean to any model new or experienced!

Finally got to shoot with Dean again in person, been talking about it for so long and doing remote shoots to keep the creative juices flowing but it was so great to get back in a studio and have a good catch up and get creative. The shoot was great- we have some fab results! Can’t wait to work together on our many more ideas and projects... thanks Dean!

Dean and I had a fabulous shoot together at Vines Art House studio

We got through soooo many sets, it was awesome to go through the images straight away on the way home via his iPad

Dean has ideas before and during a shoot, that's just one of the awesome things about shooting with Dean

For example, I was in my denim jacket just to cover up to nip to the loo and Dean had ideas to shoot me in the jacket and the images came out awesome! Probably my favourite images from the whole day

We have so many ideas for shoots together, I'm so excited to continue on this photographic adventure, it's already been amazing I know it's going to get better and better every time we shoot which makes it sooooo enjoyable productive and fun!

Thanks for an amazing day and for always making sure I'm well looked after and get to and from our shoots safely

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!

After many remote shoots I finally got to work with Dean in person! He made an effort to take a detour as he was taking a long drive down south for work and I was in Surrey for photoshoots over the weekend. Dean took the opportunity to arrange a shoot whilst we were both down south.

Despite his early morning long drive he seemed to be his usual cheery chatty self!

Dean was happy to go with my suggestions of the location and we did a little walk about shoot around a park and into town and back again.

Dean bought along some gadgets so as well as shooting on his camera he also took some little gopro snaps so he was getting some little videos for social media as we went! Super useful haha!

Was great to meet and shoot in person. Would happily recommend Dean.

Fun and Flowing Shoot at a stunning Cumbrian coastline (beach, mountains and a golden sunset).

I had the pleasure working with photographer Dean and model Lola last Wednesday evening. We had so much fun and were at ease with each other's company from start to finish.

Dean was punctual, courteous, knowledgeable and full of ideas. He regularly checked if we were comfortable and happy with his ideas and therefore it was easeful and joyful to collaborate with him.

He also checked our welfare throughout the shoot and I felt looked after.

Dean is a great photographer to shoot with and I definitely recommend him. The pace was great, not too rushed or slow and there is plenty of time and space to evolve with each frame.

I look forward to working with Dean again and with photographers with similar ethos as him.

With gratitude,

Joanah

Splash Point Photo Studio

After lurking in the shadows of social media and threatening to come to Splash Point, I finally met Dean at a weekend with Ell Mae. Chatty and cheerful throughout, Dean was generous with his time and even bought some Pizza! Anyone who does Pizza and/or tea is a winner in my book.

Lo la

Had a superb shoot with Dean on location in Cumbria.

We were blessed with nice light and good weather. Dean is a great photographer so I can't wait to see the images we took, we got some really amazing shots!

Pre coms were excellent and I was made to feel very comfortable and at ease whilst shooting. He's always making sure you're happy, warm and we stopped to have breaks often.

Really enjoyed the banter and trying to hop skip jump over the bog (with hilarious results when one of us didn't quite manage it!)

Thoroughly recommend working with this man, especially if you wanna have a good fun time!
