Adam is lovely to work with, easy conversation and quick paced shooting. This was the first time we had done a studio shoot together and he worked really well with the lights and direction there. The photos look lovely and it's always a pleasure to work together.

It's also wonderful to see someone's work improve so much from shooting with them early on to working with them after a few years. He has come on in leaps and bounds and maintained the same level of creativity and enthusiasm the whole time.

Gold stars :)

This was my first shoot with Adam. We had planned a shoot a while ago and had been talking for a while about what we were going to create together. Pre shoot comms were really great, explaining what he wanted to achieve and we got on really well. He is easy to talk to and friendly. He arranged for Amy to do my makeup and Becky to do my hair. I felt taken care of and loved my look. During the shoot we had a great time creating images together and from the images I have seen so far they look awesome! Hope to work with him again in the future and would recommend him to anyone wanting to shoot. Thanks Adam!

Had a brilliant black and white shoot today with Adam and had a fab time doing so once again!

I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking to shoot with him.

I absolutely loved the shoot with Adam today! It was our first shoot and he is very down to earth and willing to get a few scrapes and bumps or take a risk or two to get a good photo while being professional but having such a great laugh. He spent ages trying to get some of the picture ideas I wanted to do, and even showed me a mood board of some shots he wanted to do so I knew what he wanted. Anyone who can understand and appreciate my level of creativity deserves a pat on the back but he also actually helped me create a mini set on location for a set of shots and even let me get some emoutive work done like I wanted. I loved the pictures I saw so far, anyone would be lucky to shoot with you! Looking forward to our 2nd.

I had a great time working with Adam. He is so easy to get on with and is very excited about new ideas (and his own already formed ideas).

The shoot flowed very well and it was great to bounce off someone so creatively open minded 😊

I have no doubt we will work with each other again and have no problem in recommending him to work with.

His shooting style is great and there was a lot of pre-shoot communication. .which is very helpful.

I was over the moon with the end results and I believe so was Adam 😊

Excited to see what we come up with next 😊

Adam is a genuine pleasure to work with...get booking peeps 😉

Adam was an absolute delight to shoot with! And this positive process started well in advance of the shoot itself, with proactive, regular and constructive communication leading up to the shoot (as well as sorting out logistics for the shoot, exchanging ideas and understanding about each other's styles/way of working) which meant that by the time we actually met for the first time we were able to hit the ground running and make the most of every minute of shoot time we had. Adam is friendly, approachable, evidently passionate about photography and very imaginative. Not only was he brimming with his own ideas but he was willing to collaborate with me and listen to my ideas/suggestions when I got the inspiration to share them. Adam has a great manner about him, clearly giving direction (and this is reflected in the excellent shots that resulted). And Adam should also be given extra credit as we shot with 2 of my 3 children and they all worked absolutely great together! Adam especially showed how professional he was when taking on board and responding to my son's idea for a shot, which worked great on camera. We are already planning our next shoot together and I am really looking forward to it! Happy to highly recommend Adam.

Shot for the second time with Adam the other day and it was just as lovely as our first. He is a very dedicated photographer and had obviously been working hard between our two shoots! We had a great time and got some lovely shots and he is always an absolute pleasure to work with! I look forward to our next idea and next lot of random conversations. Lovely chap, great work ethic, recommend!

I worked with Adam at a group shoot at the pit studio in Nottingham. He is a lively character and has plenty of ideas. He let me have free reign to pose and wear what I had selected. Often coming up with ideas for us to try out. He is enthusiastic and sent images back quickly after the shoot.

Adam is great to work with. He's professional, fun and full of ideas. I felt very comfortable shooting with him. I thought we worked well as a team and bounced ideas off each other. I was really happy with the results of the shoot and I look forward to working with Adam again.

adam took the first modelling shots of me ever on a group shoot and i loved them. he put me at ease quickly and we had a joke and laugh whilst taking them which really helped me be comfortable. i can't wait to work with him again!

BeckyAnn

Great photographer, I'd highly recommend Adam to anyone, professional yet easy to work and get along with. Always open to new ideas. I have shot with Adam twice now and have plans for more. Made me feel really comfortable infront of the camera. Love shooting with him and hope to have many more shoots in the future

Ive shot with adam a couple of times, he's a lovely person who takes amazing images, he makes you feel comfortable and at ease and gives good direction, he also accepts advice and ideas.

I cant wait to work with him again.

highly recommended

Had a shoot today with Adam and loved every second of it. He's a really friendly and welcoming person and puts you at ease straight away. We had ALOT of ideas and tried to cram as many as possible in a five hour shoot! He works quickly and knows what he wants from the shoot from the off. He worked really well with me before hand and during the shoot bouncing ideas around and taking on board suggestions that he thought would work. I'm so very happy with the few photos i have already received (THE SAME DAY) and can't wait to work with him again. He shoots creepy things but he has a good eye for it and a golden heart to boot. I would recommend working with him if you are wanting a more gothic/creepy style shoot as he really excels in that area. A true gentleman and an amazing photographer.

Chyna Doll

Had my first shoot with Adam today, even though it was freezing we worked so well together and I felt very comfortable from the start. Adam is up for a laugh as well as being serious in poses, lighting and taking the photos. I recommend him to anyone! Such a cool guy

Hope to work together again too.

Shot with Adam again yesterday at The Pit Studio. Adam was there on time, he was well prepared and had even picked up some extra items to assist me with makeup!

We shot two fashion outfits to show off my tattoos and then went for the main concept idea which true to adams nature was weird gorey and rather creepy - not that any of those words should be taken negatively!!

Fantastic enjoyable shoot which I think we spent more time laughing then actually shooting but that always works well for us as Adam still ended up with a good 250+ images.

Cant wait for our next encounter!

FULLY RECOMMED!

I have shot with Adam twice now, the Living Dead Dolls inspired group shoot and the Candy Girl themed shoot, with loads of ideas for the new year.

It felt like I was meeting an old friend the first time we met, which shows how well we got on.

Ideas for shoots are communicated fully and his presence on social media is excellent. He replies to messages within minutes and is very organised.

On the day of shooting he makes models feel comfortable, there's a relaxed atmosphere with an 'anything goes' attitude. He works well with his models so that everyone has a say in how the shoot goes and what they want to capture.

The price he was willing to pay was well negotiated and fair as well as appropriate for the style of shoots taken.

I'm happy with the images he has taken of me so far and look forward to shooting with him again.
