Fourth shoot with Mr Miguel and as always it was a pleasure.

He is always super relaxed and we have a laugh as well as creating some epic shots.

Lovely to see you and look forward to the next one

What a lovely charming man, such a pleasure to be around. So nice to work with someone I had so many common interests with, such a rarity. It's a rare occasion that I instantly click with someone and this was certainly one of those occasions.

Mike came along with lots of ideas and equipment, a true professional, Mike is an artist and his artwork is very impressive. Easy to work with, a true gentleman and very passionate about his work. Highly recommended and I'm looking forward to our next shoot :-)

Well what a lovely pleasure it was to working with Mike again.. And he has all the studio equipment in his car too, perfect for models with indoor locations but no lighting... I like Mike, he is down to earth Yorkshireman, funny, good to work with, very creative mind and has a real passion for the artistic side of photography. He captured a side of me that is rarely ever seen, and the images were beautiful. Models I am serious, work with Mike if you want something different and elegant in your work.

I had the pleasure of shooting with Mike the other day and thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Firstly, pre comms and organisation were excellent and ran smoothly. Mike turned up full of ideas and enthusiasm which resulted in a very successful shoot with fantastic images. Mike is very easy to get along with a great sense of humour, but also remains professional and respectful. I look forward to working with Mike again in the near future. Highly recommended without a doubt.

Thank you Mike once again :)

I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed shooting with Mike on Friday. Relaxed is an understatement. Although we seemed to spend so much of the shoot getting to know each other we still found plenty of time to make some wonderful images. He is friendly, chatty very polite and a great conversationalist. While having multiple ideas in his head when he arrived, he was still very generous with the time and allowed me plenty of time for my own experimentation. He also gave me a lot of very useful of advice and I feel I took a lot more from the shoot than just a set of wonderful images. I would 100% recommend mike and cannot wait to shoot again.

Yesterday I had the wonderful pleasure of working with Mike again, what a psychopath! In the nicest possible way of course! His pre comms were perfect as usual, he turned up on time to shoot at my home again, and just as the last time he managed to bring an entire studio including an octobox, that created just the most beautiful light. Yesterday we worked on a project Mike has been wanting to do years and years, he wanted to work on 3D imagery for his clay work (as Mike is a fabulous artist as well as great photographer), it was hard work and a lot of fiddling around, but by golly we did it, as well as getting beautiful portraits, art nude full lengths, three quarter lengths, lifestyle, and high key work. I'm just over the moon with what we were able to get through and the high quality. Mike even had time to give me some hints and tips on PS, as always he's so easy to have a giggle with and swap stories. I can't recommend Mike highly enough, and I'm seriously looking forward to the next time!

Thank you for a lovely day,

I worked with Mike recently for the whole day in the Peak district. Me and mike had been speaking for a while to arrange a shoot so I was so happy when we finally got to do it!

Mike is a very knowledgable person and very open, he has lots of little funny stories to keep you entertained for the day. We had a lovely lunch together also in a fantastic pub he knew, the breaks were every often and it felt like spending a day with a friend than a photoshoot.

Of course we did mange to get some images too, Mike is a talented artist so Im secretly hoping he got some good images he would like to paint/draw.

Highly recommended.

Thanks to Mike whom I had the pleasure of working with yesterday on a variety of different styles and genres. Mike is a friendly and nice gentleman, who made me feel relaxed and involved from the very start. Mike had sent helpful briefs before the shoot and was well equipped with interesting props and equipment.

I felt involved in the shoot throughout, and we created some interesting and unique images, which I'm sure will help Mike with his beautiful artwork.

The time flew by and I hope to work with him again soon,

Yesterday I had the enormous pleasure of working with Mike, his pre comms were absolutely perfect and speedy, he turned up on time and brought with him an entire studio set, hats, moodboards, props, and his wonderful and insane personality! It was a lovely relaxed 8 hour shoot with cups of tea and doughnuts, Mike is so easy to get on with, he has a cracking sense of humour and has some great stories to tell. It was a fun shoot inspired by SinCity's artwork, it was wicked getting to play deranged characters, and then moving on to natural light nudes, and pretty pin up. This was my 4th art nude shoot and I couldn't have been more comfortable working with Mike, he's a lovely gentlemen albeit a bit crazy which just made the shoot that more enjoyable. I know we got some amazing shots, and he even got around to sending some to me today! I would and will happily recommend Mike to any model, and would love to work with him again, and again.

Thank you for a groovy shoot,

I had a great home shoot with Mike, great pre-shoot comms so i had a good idea of what he wanted beforehand. Nervously I had my first proper pin up style shoot and he was fabulous, put me at ease as it was not a style i had tackled before. He is a very talented artist as well as knowledgeable photographer so I'm looking forward to seeing any artistic results our shoot may yield. Highly recommended ;)

Brook Logan

Did my first ever Pin up shoot today with Mike! Mike is very friendly and chatty, Pre communications was good through out! Mike Knew exactly what he wanted! Gives out great advice and was professional through out the shoot!

Recommend to all models! :)

Thanks

Always a great shoot when working with mike #don

Actually this would of been my 5th shoot with mike! He always arrives on time with a smile on his face no matter what! Not only do we bounce of each other’s ideas, we always create some amazing images. A very talented man and not just behind the camera, if your lucky enough mike may well show his artistic side and paint you also!

I can’t wait to shoot with you again 🤓🤪 Xx

I had my second shoot with Mike last week (almost) two years after the first one!

We focussed on playing with new lights, cameras and getting a nice variety of shots in the few hours we had. It was a gorgeous day so we headed out into the garden and got some very pretty shots. I think we got some stunning results and I look forward to seeing the art work Mike creates from them.

Thanks Mike!

Had a great shoot with Mike! :D His communication was brilliant before the shoot very thorough and friendly :) Mike was an absolute pleasure to work with, such a lovely, funny & genuine guy. A great photographer, passionate about his work, and keen to experiment. He was thoughtful and polite, 110% gentleman. The images looked great that Mike took, he showed me them all the time, which was really nice of him! :)

Mike stayed with me and was an ultra polite house guest.....he left the place tidier than before he came! :D tehe :)

I would absolutely recommend Mike, trustworthy, sound and great fun! I would work with Mike again anyday! (y) :D

Thanks a million for a fab shoot :D x

I had my first shoot with Mike yesterday. We started with a location creative type shoot using one of my concepts and then we did some simple portrait shots at my house, Mike had a great selection of equipment which made it easy to set up a little studio at home, he was a pleasure to work with we had great fun and I would highly recommend.

I look forward to seeing you soon

I worked with Mike last Saturday morning bright and early. We shot off to do some location work and proceeded to get some brilliant images. Mike is really down to earth and loves what he does but without fuss, just my cup of tea! Thanks again Mike for a wonderful morning, great company.

Alaria

I worked with Mike today after a few years and what a lovely guy, easy to get along with which makes for a very relaxed shoot. We got some great images today and being a very talented artist I will be interested to see what he does with them. I would definitely recommend Mike and would love the chance to work with him again.
