I had a lovely shoot with Alan today. He'd messaged me several months ago expressing an interest in working with me and his pre-comms were excellent.

Alan had mentioned that he was "chatty" and he very definitely was. It's very nice to work with a photographer who really cares about you as a person and wants to capture the essence of "you". We had a great time chatting as much about life as we did taking photos.

Photography is a real passion for Alan and I really relished the fact that he gave me a lot of creative freedom. He was also very concerned about making sure I was absolutely comfortable with everything that I did. I would recommend him to other models and look forward to working with him again!

Nice to have Alan visit me again for another shoot in my home.

Always more fun with a second shoot as you understand the shooting styles of the

photographer and can add to the shoot as not possible the first time.

Had another great shoot and talked about lots of worldly things.

Alan is always welcome to visit me when he can and, of course, he is highly recommended.

Had my first shoot with Alan today in my home. He is an amazing photographer, incredibly respectful and immediately made me feel at ease. What is more, he has many exciting stories to tell!

Alan treats the photoshoot as a collaboration which creates an amazing, relaxed atmosphere.

I would highly recommend working with Alan and hope to work with him again.

This was my first shoot with Alan and it was brilliant.

Pre shoot comms were very detailed - Alan puts a lot of thought and detail into his shoots, making sure levels are agreed beforehand, expressing the importance of the shoot being a collaboration between model and photographer, location details and travel.

Alan wanted to make sure I was 100% comfortable and knew our agenda before turning up on the day, we had a four hour shoot booked at his hotel, the room was large with plenty of light, we shot lingerie and used just natural light at my request! Alan worked very well with the natural light despite it changing a lot, he also just let me do my thing which was great.

We talked throughout and share a lot of the same views on life so got on really well, I felt safe, comfortable and enjoyed the shoot immensely.

I would highly recommend Alan, he's a lovely man and great at what he does, cant wait for our next shoot!

Alan is an absolute pleasure to work with. It was a relaxed and fun atmosphere the entire time.

While shooting we were able to collaborate our ideas well and he happily took intuitive when needed. It hasn't even been a day and I can see he's already editing and pairing photos!

He's an incredibly interesting individual with plenty of stories to tell, I hope to work with him again in the future and hear more!

Thanks,

I had the pleasure of working with Alan for the first time today and had a really enjoyable shoot. We shot in a hotel in London and time went so quickly.

Straight away I felt at ease and comfortable around him as he was very professional, communicated well and easy to work with. Pre shoot comms were amazing as he stated exactly what he was looking to shoot and where, when and what time to meet him.

I highly recommend Alan and would love to work with him again in future.

I had a second fun and productive shoot with Alan during my recent trip to Newcastle. As before, he was interesting to work with and the shoot combined a range of fashion/lingerie/nude styles with a range of conversational topics. Luckily, Loud and Flashy studios was available, which was a lovely location to work from, especially as I was consistently upstaged by the owner's beautiful 4 month old Labrdoodle! The time definitely flew by and I hope to work with Alan again, perhaps in my home seeing as we've now had a hotel and studio shoot.

Asuna

I had my first shoot with Alan on Monday he travelled to me by train and got to me a little before the shoot so it gave us time to set up and have a chat.

I think we was both a little nervous as he had not really done a pregnancy shoot before and I didn't want to disappoint.

The shoot went really well and I felt really comfortable with Alan we had a really good chat about many of things. He's down to earth and I really enjoy talking to him and listening to his stories.

As he does not live near to me and this was a one off for him I hope that in the future I get to shoot with him again. The photos look great and I am very happy

Thanks for a lovely shoot Alan

Alan was a pleasure to meet and work with .

He was kind enough to show me some if his exhibition work, which was stunning. Alan has a refreshing attention to detail and quite clearly has an artistic mind. His images are made with great care and consideration, and i think it really shows through his work and his personality.

Alan was respectful in every manner and if highly recommend him to both new and experienced models.

can't wait to shoot again !!

I had the pleasure of being booked by Alan to shoot in a house he had rented out in Crewe. Pre-comms were amazing.

When i arrived into crewe Alan was already waiting by the gates for me to walk the short walk round to the house. He kept me refreshed through the shoot with plenty of coffee and the option of biscuits.

As soon as we left the station we got to talking and wow what wonderful conversations we had through out our 4 hours of shooting. We worked through different styles and levels Alan had some great pointers as well as allowing me to do my thing! He gave me a look at the BOC shots after each set and even showed me some of the AMAZING images he has took around the world (more or less con me i must go to china and japan).

I would highly, highly recommend Alan, all of his references speak truely of the person that he is. A kind and considerate yet very talented man!

I look forward to meeting again,

Thankyou very much!

I had a lovely shoot with Alan yesterday in a house he had rented in Crewe for shooting from. He arrived on time to meet me from the station and we walked to the house, which was just around the corner (he also accompanied me back to the station after the shoot, which was lovely and gentlemanly of him!)

From my pre shoot communication with Alan, I knew we would get on really well as we've messaged back and forth a lot, just chatting away.

Just as we had in our messages before the shoot, we chatted on about pretty much everything during our four hour shoot, and still managed to capture some lovely images in the process!!

Alan is very kind and respectful when shooting and is a truly lovely person. I definitely recommend him to any model and would work with him again without hesitation!

I had my first shoot with Alan this afternoon; we covered lingerie and art nude in an apartment setting.

Alan was great company and was very kind to provide me with something to eat and a couple of brews!

He is very creative with his photography and has a particular talent for portraiture.

I would happily work with him again and recommend him to others!

Thank you Alan :)

I had my first shoot recently with Alan and he was such fun to meet and work with.

Alan is a wonderful, lovely gentleman. Very polite, warm and professional at all times. I felt straight at ease shooting with him. We had a great time, chatting, laughing and shooting a great variety of ideas.

I can easily, highly recommend Alan to any model. He is a genuinely lovely man to work with and I would easily shoot with him again.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Alan last week when he has visiting the area.

From the go, pre communication was excellent, I knew that we would get on really well.

The shoot itself was excellent, Alan was very friendly and we had some great conversations and put the world to rights! We got some wonderful shots and Alan’s creativity and eye for detail really shines through.

I highly recommend Alan, he is super lovely and a diamond to work with. I very much hope we can work together in the near future :)

PS- glad to hear you enjoyed the pumpkin pie!

Thanks again

My second shoot today with Allen, despite certain disruptions the shoot went very well. It was really nice that we were both in our comfort zones and were able to chat whilst shooting. Highly recommended and I look forward to our next shoot.

I had a shoot with DrAC on Saturday morning, I was expecting him to be a down to earth photographer as he seemed very friendly and easy to speak to when we were arranging the shoot. I was not disappointed.

He was early to meet me very punctual full of energy and incredibly friendly. We worked through some of the styles that he was after and he knew exactly what style he liked and wanted to achieve.

We had a laugh and the 4 hour shoot time flew by! He was very happy to let me pose and the suggestions and ideas I had he took on board. He used the lighting that he had and made it work with ease, it is very clear that DrAC knows exactly what he is doing and I LOVE his work! I recommend that all models work with DrAC and his photography proves his professionalism and how much he enjoys what he does.

Thank you again for a great shoot!

I had a wonderful shoot tonight with DrAC. He was a fascinating person to chat with and I felt at ease throughout the shoot. It was a great hotel room to shoot in, very large with several different areas which added interest. DrAC was more than happy when I made suggestions for poses and this made it easy to be creative and relaxed. He had some great lighting and superb cameras which he used with ease. It really was a great pleasure shooting with him and I thoroughly recommend a shoot with him to any model. He suggested shooting again and should that opportunity come up I would definitely accept.

I had an excellent second shoot with Alan yesterday in my apartment.

Alan arrived on time and was very well prepared for the shoot.

It was great to work with Alan for a second time as the shoot flowed and we managed to get a few changes in different sections of the apartment.

Alan is a pleasure to shoot with and is a kind and interesting person. The shoot went very quickly as we talked through out the shoot.

He is very enthusiastic about his photography and I can highly recommend him to other models. I hope to work with him again in the future.

Thank you for an brilliant shoot!

Had a lovely shoot with DrAC last week - just catching up now, after a weekend away. After having been chatting about everything under the sun via PP for ages, it was great to meet Alan in person…. and chat about everything under the sun face-to-face instead! He worked around the sadly small spaces I have available, was completely professional and very comfortable to shoot with. Communications were great, Alan was careful to check what I’d be happy with him capturing on the day, and the images coming in are looking good.

This is one of life’s genuinely sweet & kind guys, gentle-hearted and open-minded. So knowledgeable about so many subjects and with an interesting anecdote or two for any one of them – I’d pick Alan to be stuck on a long train journey with any day! AND he takes a nice photo, too… what model could ask for more? :) Certainly a recommendation from me.
