David was the first photographer I worked with on my studio evening at Studio-R3.

When I turned up he talked me through his ideas and plan for our time together, was super organized and knew exactly what he wanted to achieve.

David was very friendly and I instantly felt at ease in his company, we got through all his ideas at a nice relaxed place and had a good natter in between shooting too.

I really enjoyed meeting and working with David and hope to do so again in future!

Happily recommended!

After multiple shoots and trips to Scotland, David has become a friend as well as a trusted (and fun) creative to work with.

For our third shoot, we covered a range of David's ideas (with my input too of course) from American flag fashion & implied nudes through to a WILD idea that you'll just have to wait and see...

Studio R3 is always the perfect setting for both our natural light, no make-up looks but also can suit any big idea. David created a cool backdrop for us to really explore a big idea, complete with latex and glitter.

Also great to see the Barbie Box come to life and put on some amazing props and outfits to shoot in it.

David is a lovely, kind and chilled creative.

Thanks for always making me feel at home & keeping me safe with transport (and dry with an umbrella!)

Second shoot with David now and it's always a pleasure!

I love that David always comes with some really strong ideas and themes to shoot, but is also happy with whatever we get out of the shoot. We started off with a natural light, no makeup low-key casual fashion idea, moving onto shooting in a cool fluid poncho and finishing off with some high-fashion shots on the paper.

Having shot over at the old studio, I must admit I enjoyed the added space of the new studio and being able to access props/outfits to shoot in.

As a side note, David was also on hand as an R3 studio owner to assist with a couple shoots I had out of the studio later that day. His knowledge is second-to-none and I'm very much looking forward to our third shoot next month!

Ps thanks for bringing me a bowl so I could make my breakfast :)

See you soon!

Had the pleasure to work with David during a latex themed event. Fantastic pre shoot comms, outfits were planned and agreed in advance.

David is a great photographer with excellent model direction skills and he nailed the shoot all the way through.

Excellent images and surelly a photographer I hope to work with again!

David booked me for a studio day at his studio in bridgeton glasgow, studior3,communication with david was great and after picking from the array of outfits i brought along we started shooting! David kindly showed me shots from behind the camera as we went on and our time went by very quickly! He is a true professional in what he does and model safety was definitely important to him, i felt both safe and comfortable the whole day. He was even kind enough to drop me back off into glasgow central after our shoot which i really appriciated. i would definitely work with both him and the studio again and recommend him to any model. Thankyou!

Had one of the best shoots I've had with David over at R3 last week.

Really, really lovely bloke and good eye for capturing the perfect shot.

It's always nice to feel extra comfortable around a photographer as I did with David - plus the professional studio is a dream to shoot in!

Looking forward to seeing our photos and shooting together again soon!

Thanks again

Shot with David for the first time last week! Lots of chat before hand. Lines of communication kept open right up to arrival! Good chat on the evening, kept morale up and the shoot was a breeze! Can't wait to see what else we can come up with!

First time shooting with David a couple of months back, when restrictions allowed. We approached this shoot with a couple of very loose ideas, we managed to achieve those ideas and so much more! The flow of the shoot was completely in David's hands, which allowed us to achieve so much, so comfortably as well.

I felt I was given the utmost respect from David, above and beyond most photographers. He made sure my safety and input was put first. This professional approach shows in the images as he has managed to capture such powerful results from our shoot.

Thank you so very much for the opportunity to work with you David 😊. Hope we can plan for another one when restrictions allow.

I had a pleasure working with David during my recent studio day in Glasgow. David is not just a talented photographer but a true gentleman and a lovely person to be around. We got on really well and the time flew by. The images looked amazing from the back of the camera and I cant wait to see the finished result. Thank you so much for the great shoot and I hope we will get to work together again very soon.

I first worked with David after taking part in a studio day at a local camera club that David organises . David’s communication and organisation was excellent . He gave myself and another model working that day plenty of info on what to expect , what outfits to bring and a full break down of the day . I like to be super organised so this was really helpful for me . On the day we arrived and paired off with one tutored group and then swapping over with the more experienced photographers . Everyone I met was welcoming and great to get along with . David made sure we where well looked after throughout . The pics I have gotten back from David and a few others on the day have been brilliant and I was happy to post these on my page . Great guy and club to work with and I would love to work with him again . Highly recommend .
