I shot with Don at a Halloween group shoot I organised through Unsane Model Management and what a lovely guy to work with! All social distancing regulations were adhered to! He introduced himself to everyone when he arrived and when it was his turn to shoot with our group, he didn’t disappoint! He talked us through how he usually shoots and made sure we were all comfortable and happy with how everything was going! Don was happy to give direction when needed and I thoroughly enjoyed working with him :) I recommend Don to everybody and I hope to work with him on a one to one shoot very soon! Plus, communication after the shoot is excellent and the images are amazing!

I recently met Don at a group UMM Halloween shoot. With the theme of our favourite horror villains, Don had some really great ideas. He was funny, professional and polite. When going through the photos it seemed like he created a storyline of sorts through the images for each different villain which was extremely creative and different from the other photographers that attended the event. Had a great time shooting with him and loved his creativity. Id love to shoot with don again in the future😁

We had invited Don to our halloween group shoot though UnsaneModelManagement (covid safe) and were not disappointed!

He worked very well with some of those in the group who had little experience, and was an absolute dream to work with myself! Lots of amazing ideas, and very open to model input when it came to shots and ideas we had ourselves

Friendly, professional, and im yet to find an image from Don that I dont absolutely adore... I highly recommend Don, and will definitely be shooting again as soon as possible!

Another great shoot with Don, and my first proper nude shoots, I felt totally at ease - he creates a very modest and safe environment.

I hope to have many more shoots with him!

I’ve worked with Don a number of times now and each shoot is relaxed, productive and a lot of fun. Our shoot last Sunday was no exception and I was delighted that Don chose to booK onto my ‘Icons of the 1970’s’ themed studio day at Far Forest Studio.

Don wanted to make the most of the bag of tricks he’d bought with him, which included a smoke machine and a bubble machine complete with UV bubble solution, so we decided to concentrate on an ‘in concert’ style of photography with Kate Bush as our muse.

The two hours flew by in a haze of gel lit smoke and giggles and, as always, I had a lovely time. Don has been kind enough to share images with me from the shoot; they’re lovely, and so reminiscent of the look we were attempting to capture.

I’d recommend Don to other models and I look forward to working with him again in the future. Thanks Don! :)

Model of 20 years experience here. Had a super shoot with Don on August 7th. Communication prior to the shoot was clear, friendly and professional. The location and studio was absolutely stunning with incredible potential for all sorts of images across all sorts of styles. Very impressive. Don was on site and ready to shoot when I arrived. Refreshment was provided and the changing facilities were clean, private and high quality. I was very impressed. Don was friendly, professional and efficient throughout the shoot. I felt comfortable and inspired. Direction given was helpful and appropriate. Lighting and photography was very professional and a very good standard, I was impressed and we created some amazing images. Images were delivered promptly and editing also very good standard. Great shoot all round, would recommend.

This was a fantastic shoot! Don was lovely to work and very easy to get on with. He was very welcoming on arrival and was happy for me to bring my partner as a helping hand. Don gave us a tour of the studio to settle us in and was open to our to ideas and suggestions. Really looking forward to working with Don again.

Had my first shoot with Don and I can honestly say he was a pleasure to work with.

Even though the shoot was short notice and not planned in advance he did not fail to disappoint at all.

He has a lovely personality and makes you feel comfortable throughout the shoot and has amazing ideas.

He gives direction but also lets you as a model have a choice and be able to free pose throughout all sets.

Definitely recommend and I look forward to shooting with him again soon :)

I had a fabulous shoot with Don last month (apologies for the large delay in getting this reference to you!)

He applied to a home casting and his comms were clear, direct and friendly. The shoot was easy to organise & he even included some moodboards to help give inspiration!

The shoot itself was a delight! The whole duration was relaxed and and creative.

We worked through a variety of different looks and ideas.

Don was happy for me to give input and make suggestions regarding the set up and environment in which to shoot the images.

I would certainly recommend Don to others. He was polite, respectful and we had a good giggle during the shoot!...

Wonderful images and wonderful company!

Thank you again Don & hopefully we will get to shoot again in the future!

Don is an absolute delight to work with, he has clear and concise communication from the beginning.

Even though the weather wasn’t on our side, he still have it his all when shooting outside.

A hugely friendly guy and a great sense of humour, I cannot wait to work with Don again in the future!

An absolute blessing to work with!

Would definitely shoot with him again.

Had a fantastic first shoot with Don today at Far Forest studio. Pre-comms were great and links were sent so I could see what ideas Don wanted to achieve.

Don is a very easy guy to work with, very professional and committed to capturing the image that he wanted to create. Can't wait to see the images...they looked fab from what I saw on the back of the camera.

Would totally recommend Don to all models, whatever their ability. He gives direction but also lets the model have input into poses and ideas.

Look forward to working with him again soon :)

Highly recommended

I met Don on 20/10/19 for a trade photo shoot. It was my first ever shoot so I needed some direction for poses that were happily given by Don.

He has alot of patience and always made sure I wasnt too cold as well as being comfortable in each location and chosen pose.

Very friendly gentlemen who responds in good time to messages. I fully recommend to anyone who is doing a first time shoot. Hopefully I will soon have a second shoot next month, if not definitely in the future.

I had an absolute amazing shoot with Don.

Instantly made me feel welcome and had snacks ready.

We had a fun and easy going shoot in which we worked together great.

Photos I saw from back of camera were gorgeous as well as getting some great artistic ideas.

Had such a great time that we lost track of time 😊
