Shadowlight Portraits New

OMG what a model and what a shoot we just had at Southbourne Beach!!! Elle delivered in spades, can't wait to get editing them. She was able to give so many different vibes and was happy to flow with my essentric ideas and nervous energy (apologies Elle). Elle really got involved in my ideas and helped bring them to life.

Bonus Mum and dad happened ro be about and helped out grabbing some behind the scenes and help me heft my gear about which I am forever grateful for their support. A1 model, can't wait to shoot again next time your down South :)

Beaux Visages

Wow! Impossibly beautiful - Elle has a rare mix of stunning and exquisite fine features I left the shoot reflecting on how unfair life is - how one person can possess so much beauty and whether I even captured 10% of it.

Elle had been on my to shoot list for more than 2 years and our brief 2 hour sessions at Inspire Studios was everything I could have hoped for, she is a really lovely girl with a great attitude. Her hair and makeup were perfect.

A true beaux visage - one in a million - exceptional. I would be honoured to work with her again at any time.

Thank you Elle.

An Eye for Beauty

I was delighted when I saw that Elle was having some studio days at Inspire, my 'local' studio, and the two hours was a joy from start to finish. I arrived somewhat stressed, but her quiet voice and modest confidence brought peace to the proceedings. I had brought some costumes to begin one of my current themes of fairy stories and nursery rhymes, and she soon became Little Miss Muffet and Little Red Riding Hood. A very good start!

She also modelled a couple of other outfits I had requested, and two swimsuits for my 'fashion bikini' project - a lovely petite figure. And we ended with a very fine long green dress, shot against a darker green b/g for my 'rainbow' theme.

Elle is petite in every sense with a beautiful, finely featured face. I could have shot her for hours, and certainly hope to again when, as I am sure, she comes to the south west again.

Thank you, Elle, for being so charming and helpful, and for all the lovely comments about my work. You will be a great addition to my portfolio; and I look forward to another encounter with you in the future.

Well at long last I had the chance to shoot with Elle yesterday - she was top of my list to shoot with and was definitely worth that billing. The shoot was on her studio day at Inspire Studios, Salisbury.

From the first to the last click of my camera, wonderful images just kept coming along. She is so good in front of the camera and happy to try whatever I threw at her. We focussed on portrait and a number of different fashion styles and lighting set-ups, all of which Elle posed superbly throughout.

Elle is so lovely to work with - relaxed, fun and a beautiful personality. It really was a great couple of hours which produced so many truly beautiful images.

The two hours flew by and I wished I had booked more. I definitely need more time and more shoots Elle, so come to the south again soon

Many thanks for all, Nick

I shot with Elle at @inspirestudio during her tour down south

I have some beautiful pictures that I'm so happy with!

Elle is amazing to work with and I cannot wait for her to return down south so I will hopefully have a chance to work with her for a bit longer next time!

Lovely to meet you Elle (and parents) Thank you for your time and See you Soon!

Just spent 2 and a half days in Elle’s company while she was shooting at Inspire with a number of photographers and wow what a really lovely young lady. She was fantastic with each and every photographer she shot with tailoring her outfits and posing to their style of photography and taking a genuine interest in them. She clearly has a fantastic work ethic and enjoys her modelling too.

I managed to get a quick shoot in with her and loved every minute of it, such a joy to work with and we got some stunning portraits so thank you Elle!

Looking forward to her next visit and would highly recommend working with her…….that doesn’t really say enough…….she completely smashed the time she was at the studio and is now on my top model list!

I contacted Elle, many months ago to let her know that a few photographers could fill a whole day for her, if ever she planned a tour in the south. As luck would have it, both Elle and the wonderful Siaran at Inspire Studios wanted to arrange a studio day(s). Therefore, we set the wheels in motion.

I was first up for a 3 hour shoot in the morning and greeted by Elle, in full make up looking absolutely beautiful and with a lovely smile.

We chose some ball gowns, casual wear and a lingerie set. We also used one of Siaran’s own creations, a beautiful gown. Elle has a lovely, petite and slender frame, I reckon she would look great in any attire.

Elle, is so lovely. Dead easy to talk with, looks great has a lovely personality and perfect for modelling.

I thoroughly enjoyed meeting and shooting with Elle. The three hours flew by in what seemed like no time at all. The images created with her are stunning.

It really is a joy to work with her and as such, I would have no hesitation in recommending that photographers should work with her, if they get the opportunity.

What can I say about Elle that has not already been said by so many others? Well, here goes….

I stumbled across Elle on West Yorkshire Models and the images that she created were just beautiful. It was at that time that I knew I had to get in touch for a shoot. However, this would be the very first time that I would get to photograph someone who knew what they were doing and this made me a little nervous, but excited at the same time.

Meeting Elle was fabulous. She is such a quietly spoken young lady with a subtle confidence that allowed for a really straight forward and enjoyable shoot. For me, I was astonished at how easy it was for her to create different shapes and subtle movements that meant each image I took was just amazing.

Elle is definitely someone that I would love to work with again as I learned so much from her. Thank you, Elle, for making my time with you fun and productive.

I had shot with Elle a couple of times remotely during lock down, this was my first face to face shoot and Elle did not disappoint she turned up on time with a bag full of outfits all spot on to the brief.

She is a lovely young lady always smiling happy to try out different ideas. Takes direction well and also works well with out.

We got some amazing images and I'm looking forward to working with Elle again in the future.

100% recommended.

What they say about Elle is true - she is so incredibly lovely!

Even though I feel like I have met her already because I have seen so much of her work, this was actually my first time. She looks as beautiful in person as she does in pictures. Flawless!

She worked with photographer very well and was able to suggest useful changes and provided gorgeous fashion outfits throughout.

Absolutely recommend.

Hope you will be back soon! Lots of love,

Xenia at Zavod

Mick Payton Studios

First let me say what a lovely, intelligent, happy girl Elle is - and it's contagious, she makes everyone happy! Very professional, hard working, very beautiful and a great model! Everyone on the weekend of workshops requested a return - which sold out immediately! She listens, helps and gives great feedback, the full package, so If you haven't worked with her you are definitely missing out guys. Also has excellent support from her parents which is so welcome and important, see you again soon Elle!

I had the greatest pleasure in meeting and working with Elle for the first time today at Mick Payton’s studio in Presteign. I have been aware of her profile on PurplePort for a while, but as she lives on the opposite side of the world from me (North Lincolnshire is a long way from South Wales), I held little hope of shooting with her. So when I heard she was coming to Wales for a couple of days I jumped at the chance.

Not only is Elle a beautiful, elegant, graceful and hardworking model, she is also a very warm, chatty and charming person; and an absolute delight to work with. She poses effortlessly and takes direction well, and although I think we pushed her out of her comfort zone in terms of modelling style (messy hair and sassy attitude) she completely nailed it, and we got some great images.

It goes without saying that I would recommend Elle to any photographer or studio and I really hope to work with her again :-)

Thanks Elle, you are a star… 🌟

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Elle for the first time at Mick Payton Studios. Elle was fantastic, a very genuine, hardworking, professional and intelligent person that made for a thoroughly enjoyable shoot. The style of the shoot was very much messy hair and a bit of attitude which Elle excelled at.

I would highly recommend Elle, a pleasure to work with. Already looking forward to the next shoot.

I met Elle at a group shoot and immediately knew that I needed to shoot with her again, and today this was possible. We had arranged to work in Studio3bySevern and try to cover many styles to get to know each others styles. Pre shoot communication was spot on and I had a very clear idea of what we would be doing.

Elle turned up early and with absolutely everything we had discussed and much more.

Her energy and enthusiasm just shines out and her radiant smile is enough to bring sunshine into the room. She engages so well with the people around her, she is relaxed and confident, she is just an absolute delight to work with. She poses without the need for direction but is also happy to listen to direction and produces stunning images.

The time disappeared on us but it was a dream shoot. She is kind and considerate, polite and generally just a joy to work with

I cannot recommend highly enough. A great day was had

THANK YOU ELLE

I shot with Elle twice this week – Two Four Hour Session at the Lincoln photography studio – Thursday 2nd and Friday 3rd June 2022 - Both shoots were wonderful.

I highly recommend working with Elle and look forward to shooting with her again.

If you wish to add some Audrey Hepburn look a like images to your portfolio – Elle is your model – she has lots of outfits and definitely has that Audrey look.

Elle was a superb model for the two days of 1-1 bookings at the Lincoln Studio. She has that natural talent for posing to the camera and is blessed with an incredibly beautiful face and smile. Coupled with her easy-going pleasant personality.

A top-class model and person – along with her Mum and Dad who I met for the first time on the Friday.

This is the second time I have had the pleasure of working with Elle & if I have anything to do with it, it will not be the last. This time we were shooting at Allerton Castle. It really helped that Elle had worked there before she knew the lay out, knew which part of the rooms worked best & was very helpful. The outfits, dresses she brought with her were out of this world, but it’s not just the dresses, it’s the attention to detail, the accessories she brings, tiaras, gloves, handbags, I could go on. Then there is mum. Now as soon as a model says she is bringing her mum some photographers start to think oh no! Whatever you do, don’t. Jacqueline is brilliant & she brings so much to the shoot. She wants her daughter to look her best & she sees things you don’t always notice, a ruffled up part of the dress, gloves not quite right. We had a fantastic day.

I have no hesitation in highly recommending Elle. Thank you. See you again soon I hope. ❤️

An outstanding shoot at the Lincoln Photography Studio today.

Elle was brilliant in all respects, full of energy and brimming with talent.

A pleasure to work with her again.

Highly recommended.
