I shot with Elle for the first time back in September when she did a studio day at Splashpoint Studio in Rhyl. I found her and her mom (who was there as Elle's MUA and assistant) to be very welcoming and friendly and got on well with them, finding conversation easy throughout the shoot and the whole experience to be relaxed and enjoyable. Elle is a fantastic model who is full of confidence and great at her posing and who takes direction very well as well as coming along with a vast array of stunning dresses covering a range of different looks. We shot four different sets during our two hours, with some stunning results. I would definitely work with Elle again and I very highly recommend her.

I have been wishing for a chance to shoot with Elle for at least a year and finally managed to meet her on a touring day over at Splash Point Studios Rhyl, thanks to Russ. You couldn't hope to work with a more professional and accommodating model / Makeup artist team than Elle and Jacqueline. I only wish I had the chance to work with them for longer than I did.

Elle is adorable in both image and personality. She is soft, yet has those chiselled fashion cheeks, is quiet, but is easy to talk to, and she's also aware of her key lights, yet she listens to direction.

Her pre comms were great, and on the day she was happy to chip in with ideas of images she's like to try while we shot different sets. In the end we got a mixture of strong images with a few quirky and commercial ones thrown in too that either of us may not typically otherwise shoot, adding something new to our portfolios while exploring parts of the house and props i've not used before.

When Elle popped up on my radar, I knew it was a no brainer and that I had to work with her.

Elle is quite possibly the prettiest girl you are ever likely to photograph! Her beauty speaks for itself she works very hard to get you the images you want and sets standards to which all models should aspire too.

Today was a fantastic shoot to be remembered for all the right reasons, Gorgeous images,great company & a lovely personality too

I recommend Elle very highly, She is the total model and is someone I will always feel immensely privileged to have met,let alone been able to take beautiful photographs of her

If your lucky enough to be in a position to book a shoot with this gorgeous girl,you must do it

Thankyou for another really enjoyable shoot today Elle,see you again soon

I had the privilege of working with Elle this week. I have wanted to work with Elle for some time, but lock down got in the way. To make the most of a long drive, it was a full on day shot with a packed itinerary.

Despite her age Elle is a very experienced and professional model, hard working and has fantastic attention to detail. She is confident posing in a wide variety of styles, although anyone who has seen her portfolio will note her passion is fantasy, and that is where she really shines. Throughout the shoot she was commited to ensuring we got the shots I was happy with. Elle has a huge wardrobe and vast selection of props.

Elle’s home is perfect for shooting, her mum a talented MUA and I cannot thank them both enough for their kindness & hospitality. Needless to say the images speak for themselves and Elle has a very friendly and delightful personality, so the day flew by.

Thank you for a great and fun shoot, and all the tea. Would definitely recommend, cannot wait to work with Elle again.I would encourage amateurs like myself to work with someone with Elle’s calibre it will do no end of good to your portfolio!

Enchanted Evermore Styled Workshops

Elle kindly stepped in at short notice to model for one of our half day workshops "Fool's Mask" and I'm so glad she did. Elle is stunning looking, a lovely person, very professional and a great model.

She worked very well with the photographers and the team and she was enthusiastic and passionate throughout. Many of the photographers commented to me during the workshop about how good she was and I got to take some photos of her myself, any of which I could use in my portfolio (so it will be very hard to choose which to edit).

I'm so glad Elle modelled for us and I really hope she will come down again for other workshops. I wish she lived nearer to us! Very highly recommended!

I've wanted to shoot with Elle for absolutely ages, but unfortunately she lives far from me, but last weekend she kindly came down for one of our workshops with Enchanted Evermore and I also got to do my own own shoot with her the morning after.

Elle is a dream to work with. As well as being stunningly beautiful, she's polite, friendly and a lovely person. I'd waited for ages to work with her and it was definitely worth the wait! I could use any of the images I shot with her for my portfolio as she models so well and with consistency. She puts expression into every pose, poses well without any direction and takes direction very well. Elle's mum Jacqueline is also lovely and very helpful and supportive.

I can't wait to edit the photos from our shoot and I really do hope I can work with Elle again in future. Very highly recommended!

I was part of the Enchanted Evermore group on Saturday in Lyndhurst and I was very fortunate to work with Elle. She is a great model as well as being a lovely person with whom to photograph. She is attractive and her make up was perfect. Her posing was good and needed very little direction. Thanks again for a really enjoyable shoot.

Deuces Wild

Elle was our model for a magical Enchanted Evermore themed workshop in the New Forest. Elle was a joy to work with. Her poses and look to camera flowed easily and effortlessly and she immediately understood what I was trying to achieve with the natural light available in the Forest. Adaptable, professional and wonderful to work with. Very highly recommended indeed.

I have been wanting to work with Elle. She has a beautiful face, hair and her skin is lovely with the nicest smile . She is perfect model for any decent shoot. Very sweet and polite. Her mum( Jacqueline) is so amazing she very organised and created some amazing costume and accessories, props for the shoot today.

It absolutely worth of waiting to work with these beautiful people. Love every minute working with Elle and her team..

Excellent shoot with Elle today. Elle was well prepared for our first shoot together with hair and makeup immaculate and her case full of top outfits to choose from. Elle has a great range of expressions and posing options in her locker. I have no hesitation in recommending her to any photographer experienced or novice.

Looking forward to shooting with Elle again soon.

Elle, the garden, the outfits and, certainly not forgetting, Elle's mum, Jacqui, who was on hand to provide expert styling advice and general assistance (smoke machine operative extraordinaire!), the whole package was well worth the 5 hours total driving time and full day shoot.

Would I recommend Elle, PP's reference system asks... Damn right I will! Strongly and enthusiastically. The only thing lacing was enough hours in a day to accommodate all the potential available. So yes, another shoot will be forthcoming.

First off, Elle's pre-comms were excellent with a good back and forth of imagery and concept ideas to ensure everything we wanted to do was ready before our arrival. 'Our' arrival? Yes... Elle was also gracious enough and enthusiastic in accepting my teenager daughter who came along for her very first experience as a make-up artist on a shoot. Her first experience doing make-up on someone else actually. This already classifies Elle as a lovely person, and so she proved to be in person. I didn't speak to her as much as I normally do a model, mainly because my daughter was hogging her ;) that's alright though, I had Jacqui to talk to who proved to be equally as lovely (she made us sandwiches).

As for the modelling... with so much to think about with sets, outfits and running about trying to set up multiple lighting set-ups and shoot in the garden before any threatening rain came down and caused things to blow up, I needed a model who knew what to do, knew how to read the set and lights and concept and pose and express accordingly with little to no direction from me. I got just that. An absolute consummate professional.

Great model, awesome family (Elle's dad even cleaned off our muddy shoes so we wouldn't traipse dirt into the car... I mean, 'com!) and an overall fun and fantastic experience. My daughter now understands why I can't stop doing this stuff, and it's for days like these.

Thanks Elle, thanks Jacqui... until next time :)

I do like lovely dresses. Lots of models have nice dresses. But Elle has dresses that are really special. And I had the delightful pleasure of photographing her in three of them. And with some interesting props which she brought along too. With Elle you certainly get photo opportunities that you might otherwise struggle to find.

And Elle has enthusiasm too, something I always like to see. Her pre shoot messaging was excellent. She is clearly interested in pictures. It was nice of her for example to comment on other pictures in my port.

I give Elle a very high recommendation indeed.

The Beautiful Ones

I was lucky enough to work with Elle at a group shoot at Montrose Studios.

Elle is an incredible model! From her look to her composure in front of camera and then her pose. Easy to direct and easy to work with. There is really nothing more I can say about Elle, she was just fantastic.

Hopefully I will get a chance to work with Elle again soon.

I shot Elle for the first time at a group shoot and had about 25mins with her, she's natural model and a lovely girl, I dont think it's possible to take a bad picture of her. It was a pleasure to meet her and I had so much fun working with her, I highly recommend Elle and hopefully will get to work together again in the future!

Lyndon - the photographer

Enjoyed a quick shoot with Elle on a recent group shoot. Elle is elegant and very professional, easily adapting to last minute set changes and ideas.

She poses with easy and elegance which made the shoot easy.

Fully prepared for the shoot, she came complete with a huge array of outfits and even a stylist!

Would love to shoot with her again, thoroughly recommended.

I had the pleasure of meeting Elle recently at a group event, what a brilliant model! She is so lovely and has such an extensive wardrobe and the ability to pull off any look she tries. Everything about Elle is just perfect and I would highly recommend her, if anyone is thinking about shooting with her then you really should! I am looking forward to hopefully getting to work with her again one day :)

I shot alongside Elle for the first time at Montrose Shoot Out organised by myself and Ellie. Although I was so gutted that I never actually got the chance to shoot with her, I was immensely impressed by brilliance! Elle is just a natural, she doesn't even need to try, Elle could have a photo taken while asleep and still get a FPI lol. Seriously speaking, Elle is a great model, she turned up to our event on time and was professional throughout the whole event, very creative in her own right and not afraid to add her spin to things. highly highly recommended! Elle was so good at the first event! we just had to bring her back again for the second time!

First shoot with lovely Elle. Prior to the shoot the comms were very focused and efficient. Elle turned up on time with make up perfect and the shoot in Lincoln went very well despite a rather strong disruptive wind. Images look great and i have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Elle. She is a lovely, communicative, confident young woman who poses with style effortlessly.
