References for Monsieur E

I did a super fun cosplay shoot at comic con with Monsieur E few months ago.

He is the nicest person to work with. Not only is he incredibly handsome but the camera loves him, he’s professional, poses with ease and works well with other models.

On top of that his pre comms are excellent, he’s organised, reliable, friendly, relaxed and overall a joy to be around.

I very much look forward to working with him again and I highly recommend him to all photographers and fellow models who wish to have lots of fun shooting with a top class model!

Want to shoot a big, black, strong fella with the demeanour of a perfect gentleman ?

Look no further than the iconic Monsieur !

This was my second couples shoot with Efe, this time in a Lighting Workshop/shared shoot with Wavepower and the irrepressible Keira Lavelle as our female counterpart to the monumental Monsieur.

Efe communicates well, arrives on time, has no perceivable hang up's and has a powerful physique. The two female models I have paired with him loved the experience and both told me they would work with him again - to me the most important reference any male model could get.

I would certainly work with Efe again.

Unreservedly recommended.

Wavepower

Monsieur E was chosen to be the male subject of my first male nude shoot, my first male / female duo shoot and my first shoot of someone with black skin - all these rolled into one shoot - and what a good choice he was too. These were all things I wanted to achieve during a part workshop / part tutorial / part shared shoot with Carl Grim, Keira Lavelle and Efe - designed to broaden my experience and comfort zone.

Right from our first meeting Efe, struck me as affable, thoughtful and professional; a real gentleman in the traditional sense - and so it proved the shoot through.

Efe has the powerful, toned physique and good skin perfect for photography and was a wonderful contrast in a male / female nude duo with Keira. He is clearly at ease when naked, which helped to put me at ease too (not having shot a naked male before). Physically strong, he coped well with lifting Keira and her scrambling over him and hanging off him. He listens carefully to ideas, is thoughtful about how to best achieve them and both accepts guidance on fine tuning the pose and readily presents his own well considered suggestions. He also benefits from a first rate sense of humour, a bright smile and flashing eyes which all help to brighten any shoot.

Oh and I should mention he well appreciates good quality cookies.

Unreservedly recommended, you will enjoy any shoot you book with him.

I much enjoyed our shoot Efe, thank you for all that you did and I hope to repeat sometime.

Omg! What an amazing model this man is. Not only is he beautiful and a great model to work with, but he was also really kind and respectful in every way. The conversation flowed and we laughed a lot. Monsieur E was full of great ideas for our shoot and the time just flew by. I can't wait to work with him again. A real gentleman. Highly recommended!!

Yet another shoot with this guy.To be honest I have already said everything about him that needs to be said so I will just say that he is one of my most favourite models to work with, a gentleman and a very good model who can turn his hand to any type of shoot.

It doesn't need to be said really but HIGHLY recommended and well worth adding to your port.

When is our next shoot ?

I did my first duo shoot ever, and I'm so glad it was with this amazing guy. I was a bit nervous since it was my first duo, but as soon as I met him I knew we'd have a great time. On our way to a beautiful penthouse, we talked like we'd known each other for long.

I was simply amazed how professional he is. He took charge of the whole shoot with never ending ideas and he clearly has a lot of experience considering posing, lightning and cameras. We had an amazing connection and I truly hope it shows in the pictures too. He is so handsome with a great body and eyes to die for, and he handles woman with care and grace. He made me feel really comfortable, always making sure I'm ok (we did some shots in the balcony while it was cold and raining). I'm honored that I got the chance to work with this great talent, and forever thankful for him to arrange this shoot with me. I would love to work with him again, as soon as possible!

Sel is a fricking awesome guy, and a great model - obviously from his portfolio :) We were both booked to do duo up to nude levels, and I was looking forward to meeting Sel having chatted to him a few times online. He is a really kind and friendly person, very respectful to work with and was always considering my comfort. He is great fun as well and has hilarious stories, had me in stitches! Still owes me that skype chat via dial-up though ;) Highly recommended by me, and I really hope we can shoot together again soon! Thanks Sel you're a star!

Phoenix Winters Model

Amazing guy!!

I casted this lovable model for a recent project of mine and I couldn't imagine anyone more perfect for the role.

He was early for the shoot and well prepared, he took direction beautifully and was a pleasure to work with.

I can't put into words how professional and talented he is as a model.

His eyes are the most beautiful iv ever seen on any model and he looked like a dream in his body paint.

We had such a laugh working together and he even turned up with cookies and haribo for the team.

Such a stunning model and a heart of gold to match.

I highly recommend him to anyone and look forward to creating more stunning images with him xx

This guy is a legend.

Professional is an understatement, throws shapes like no other male model i have ever worked with. He is punctual, polite, and so much fun to be around, we hit it off straight away without any hassles at all. He nailed the shoot in record time and even brought cookies to keep the team happy :)

1000% recommended. If your after a male model? you have no need to look any further, you will have all you need right here!! always welcome at castle darklens. Already planning our next shoot. Really looking forward to working with you again dude. Dx

Where shall I start with Selucus?! So professional, super talented, very down to earth, super funny and so genuine. We had a duo shoot on my recent London tour. This was my first ever shoot with a male model and I am so glad Selucus has offered me to work with him - he is a perfect model if you would like to have a duo shoot. He kindly offered to meet me at the station on the day as he did not want me to get lost in London! He also offered me to get lunch and brought some cookies with him! If you are on a shoot with Selucus, dont think you will get away without eating a cookie! We had so much fun on a shoot and the time flew by! I feel like I made a friend for life and cannot wait to work with this legend again! Selucus comes very highly recommended by me!

Charlie Barr

Absolutely lovely guy. Had the pleasure of doing a duo shoot with selucus yesterday for CRMC clothing and he fully rocked it! So genuine, down to earth, funny and so enthusiastic! He even brought cookies!! I can't wait to work with him again, heart of gold! Xxx

Lolita_Ward

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Selucus earlier this month in a couples shoot - my first couples shoot!

We bumped into each other on the train ride over and he made me feel very relaxed. I'd expressed that I was quite nervous about whether I would perform well, and the whole day he was very gracious in making sure I was okay, that I was comfortable and most importantly, that I had fun :)

Selucus creates a really chilled, happy enviroment and you can tell he is dedicated to getting the best images possible.

I highly recommend him to anyone - he's a babe! ♥ Hopefully we can work together again soon! Thank you

I am so glad I finally got to shoot with Monsieur E, what a guy!

It was my first time shooting with a male model and he was the perfect person to do so with. He is super creative and knows what he wants from a shoot with so many ideas whilst being so much fun. We danced and chatted away despite having just met and the time just flew. Not to mention he is such a gent, always making sure I was comfortable and it was really appreciated.

Could not recommend him enough to anyone looking to try out duo shoots, an extra bonus will be his DJ skills and all the food he brings too :P Cannot wait to shoot with this handsome guy again! :)

Thanks for such a fun afternoon xxx

Jezebelle

Monsieur E is a one of a kind gentleman who has an amazing modelling talent, with his beautiful looks and equally beguiling personality!

This dude is all kinds of EPIC - his enthusiasm is addictive, having fun on shoots is mandatory with him (I giggled throughout), obligatory dancing and his posing is out of this world!

Definitely one of the best male models on the scene, whether it's cosplay or art nude, this wonderful human blows all he works with away and I'm one of these peeps - I cannot recommend him enough to all, we are already planning our next shoot ♥

I have known Monsieur E, socially for around 24 months with us both being “raconteurs” and “socialites” around town, why it took us so long to shoot is a mystery. We have worked together now three times (more planned) and in those three shoots have covered cosplay through to erotica.

Always a pleasure to have the “mischievous monsieur E” in the studio and an absolute joy to shoot. Highly professional, bringing his own interpretation and twist on the theme of the day. Great pre shoot comms, on time, works tirelessly for “the shot” and always brings a great sense of humour and fun to whatever is required for the shoot, oh yes and cake did I mention cake…?... lol… ;)

All in all a great professional and versatile model with a massive sense of humour and fun, a great addition to any portfolio. I would not hesitate in recommending Monsieur E to other photographers and models alike. Thank you again for a great series of shoots and fabulous images and I hope to see you again at Lyon Studio very soon….. (y)…;)

Managed to get the pleasure of doing a collaboration shoot with incredible Monsieur E . Yeah had good communication through out , well scheduled and punctual.

We did a forest shoot, which was still damp due to recent weather . Also was windy at times but he was a true gent and made sure I was look after and warm , very comforting.Even shared his Wine gums and music with us.

Monsieur E is very calming and relaxing. He is very professional, has great posture , lines and physique . Also very strong.He has a great look with a beautiful stare that goes straight threw you.

Would love to do a shoot with him again sometime,had a cracking time. Lovely day.

Highly recommend him to all Photographer's and any female looking to do a collaboration shoot , girl/boy . You won't be disappointed and he will take car of you xx

Ambrosia Vanette

Had an amazing shoot with Monsieur E! Communication and planning was spot on and I knew actually what to expect prior to shooting. I had so much fun, Monsieur is a very professional, dedicated and hard working model. He was very focussed and creative throughout. This was my second couple themed shoot with a male model and I have to say he was very patient, encouraging and understanding of this. His taste in music is pretty good too! Really set the mood for the shoot. Thanks for the opportunity and enjoyable time! Would recommend! Xx

Baby Daisy

This beautiful human being... Never felt more comfortable, relaxed yet still had a fun, wild time while getting creative.

Would seriously recommend to any photographer or model out there, who's looking for some mind blowing images and a incredibly fun shoot ...

Cant wait to work with you again dude!

Love forever and always

:)

I have been wanting to shoot this incredible model for quite some time! Finally got the opportunity on Thursday! What a fabulous model & gentleman! He was one of my favorite people to model with. Pre-shoot comms were excellent. We were both prepared & the pictures are stellar.

I had the most fun dancing around between poses with E, chatting & laughing while making some fantastic images. He is a truly professional model, with those eyes & a great physique! What a star!

Love working with him - everyone should shoot this man! He has my highest recommendations & I can't wait to work with him again! Thanks for everything xx
