Basford Hurst Cottage Photography Location

Ell came to Basford Hurst Cottage to shoot with Gary Stuart for the afternoon. Having spoken to Ell a number of times, and organised a studio day with her later in the year, it was a pleasure to finally meet her and welcome her to our location.

Ell arrived on time with Gary and after a chat and a cuppa she was quick to get to work shooting. During her short time here at Basford she worked through a range of sets and wore lots of incredible outfits including some stunning dresses which really worked for the location!!

Ell is lovely to have around here at Basford, she is easy to talk to, polite and a good laugh!! She is clearly a very established model and poses effortlessly to produce stunning results!! We would have no hesitation to reccomend her and look forward to seeing her again soon! Thank you Ell!!

Another brilliant shoot with Ell today - they just keep getting better! Everything was just as you come to expect of this consummate professional. Comms spot on, arrival on time and raring to go.

We decided to work with natural light so far as possible, and Ell's skill and "feel" for light really came to the fore and we got some fantastic images in somewhat challenging conditions.

Ell was, of course, her usual lively self, and a joy to work with, as ever. Thoroughly recommended.

Just got to catch up on the editing and it'll be time to go again!

Thanks for a great shoot, Ell, I'm looking forward to the next one!

This was my second shoot with Ell and like the last time such a great shoot.

Ell is so friendly and down to earth and is a joy to photograph.

Can pose naturally without any prompting but will listen and try things you may suggest.

2021 was the last time we shot together and i don't know why i left it that long.

Would love to shoot with Ell again and would highly recommend taking the chance to work with her.

Thanks Ell and Mick Payton Studios.

It was an absolute pleasure to shoot with Ell! Fantastic model, which I'm sure by now everyone knows that - great range of looks to shoot but my favourite bit was how much she brought to the shoot from a creative point of view. Incredibly knowledgable not just about what she does, but the camera and lighting side. Easy to bounce ideas off of, including some about how to use my space in different ways to shoot which I cannot wait to try!

The best experience working with Ell! We made a pretty last minute arrangement but she was super at being on it with public transport and keeping me updated with travel progress. Really amazing communication. During the shoot she was professional, friendly and full of ideas which was amazing! Her posing is top notch, we flew through set ups and poses effortlessly and I got sooo many incredible images.

I've worked with various "models" before however Ell has really opened my eyes to how different an experience is it to work with someone who knows what they're doing. She's worth every penny and you need to book her immediately.

I see big things for this girl in her career!

Had a fantastic shooting with Ellie in my home studio.

The pre-shooting communication was nice and quick.

She arrived on time with a suitcase full of clothes and with perfect make up.

Ellie is not only very beautiful, but also funny, professional and easy going.

4 hours flew by and we achieved stunning images, I really enjoyed the time together

100% recommended and hope to work again with Ellie in the near future

Thanks again

Another chance to enjoy the pleasure and privilege of shooting with this fantastic model. The shoot was tacked on to the end of Ell's studio weekend at Splashpoint in Rhyl. Comms were spot on as always, and despite a hectic weekend schedule, Ell was on the starting grid when I arrived, fully made up and ready to go.

Ell was, as ever, an absolute pocket dynamo of energy and enthusiasm, and had plenty of ideas as to how to use Splashpoint's unique features to best advantage!

Our time flew by in an instant and a huge number of pixels were harmed in the creation of numerous excellent images!

I really can't recommend this young model highly enough; she's an absolute trooper and a total delight to work with.

Here's to the next time! Thanks, Ell.

Last month I had the pleasure of once again shooting with Ell during her latest studio day at Splashpoint Studio. Lately I have been getting very experimental with gobo lighting and I was keen on trying out some new ideas with her, which she was very game for with us producing some very different images from when we've shot together previously. We shot a couple of shiny dresses, combining my gobo lighting ideas with some old school Hollywood glamour styling to create some stunning and distinctive images that I am very pleased with. Additional to this, we shot a swimwear set in the studio's swimming pool with me using a tropical themed stencil for effect and Ell choosing an outfit that perfectly complemented it with more stunning images. Ell's posing was excellent throughout with her being a natural and not requiring direction but also open to suggestions. We produced some fantastic images and I am very happy with the results. We were able to converse well throughout with the shoot feeling laid back and enjoyable and the time flying by. I am glad I had the chance to shoot with Ell again and hope to shoot with her again in the future. Very highly recommended!

I've shot with Ell several times and see no likelihood of running out of ideas for many more shoots to come.

As always, she came well prepared with lots of outfit options and excellent ideas for mixing and matching those with my own options. We got through a good variety of looks with both studio and natural light, and as ever she needs no direction, moving smoothly and quickly between poses and ensuring that we got the looks I was looking for quickly.

Always recommended.

It was so great to shoot with Ell again, this time at Splashpoint. What can i say, Ell, was truly amazing. In the 2 hrs that we had. We managed to get through 7 different sets, ranging from 60's fashion, high fashion swimwear, and lingerie.

I came away with so many great images, it is going to be hard to sort through them. If you have never shot with Ell before, then do so, you won't be disappointed, and you will have a great laugh too

Shot for two hours with Ell along with two photographer friends at Splashpoint. The time flew by and we got a whole range of looks and styles with all three of us getting different and diverse images we were very happy with. Ell communicates clearly and picks up ideas quickly, producing a range of creative poses to match the brief. She is versatile, had some cool outfits and clearly cares about the quality of images produced.

Ell is such a great model , every pose is on point she just flows and you end with with way too many great images to chose from

her wardrobe is 100% quality , with top quality lingerie and fashion that really suits her style and also fits her perfect

her work output is impressive as she can go for 9 hours and the last pose is just as good as the first

Ive photographed Ell quite a few time now and never disappoints hoping for another session soon

It had been too long since I had worked with Ell Mae so it was great to shoot her again for a duo shoot with Caitlyn J. Ell made the trek down south and arrived with hair and makeup ready to go and with a bag full of the clothes I had asked her to bring.

We shot some latex and some lingerie and Ell was great to work with as usual - especially working with another model and bouncing ideas between the three of us. She's friendly and fun to get along with, but not afraid to work hard to get the image you want.

I had a great time shooting Ell and love the images we created together - if you book her, you will too!

I have worked with Ell, so many times and the shoot is well into the 20's. Love working with Ell and enjoy our catch ups.

Ell was already at the Mainshoot studio, in Brighouse, when I arrived, armed with the usual suit case packed with more outfit changes than you could imagine.

Ell is a great model, no doubting, and her professionalism really shines.

For the 20 somethingth time, Ell is recommended by me.

I picked up Ell from the railway station, it was so lovely to see her again and catch up on her news. We are now old friends and feel very relaxed in each others company.

There is no doubting Ell's model looks and a great personality to match.

We were shooting at Fareham Studio together for the first time. All previous shoots were at the much loved and equally much missed Inspire studios.

We started our shoot with Ell wearing an incredible full length, all in one bodysuit, which suited her so well, you would think it was bespoke. We were hoping to do a few sets using purely natural light, but the rain was torrential, providing a very dull day. We therefore used a combination of natural and fill light.

We then hit the studio with lighting. My good friend Tony Nutley, was on lighting duties at the studio and brought a beautiful Elinchrom light and huge soft box with him.

This proved to be a game changer and I used the same set up for the rest of the shoot, but changed the backdrop several times.

Ell was as magnificent this time as she always is. She brought a months worth of outfits with her and her perfect form set off every single one of them.

I adore this young lady and by the fact that this was our 7th shoot, you do not need me to say whether I would recommend her. Now planning our 8th...

Thank you Ell, you were great... 🙏🌹❤️

Absolutely amazing- had my first shoot with the wonderful Ell Mae, and what a shoot it was.

In my opinion, Ell is amongst the best models I have ever worked with - she is incredible in so many ways.

She is such a natural in front of the camera that I could have clicked all night - I didn’t want the shoot to end. We covered a number of styles and Ell excelled with all. She needs no direction as she has so many wonderful looks and poses, but is equally happy to be directed and try any prop I put her way.

The shoot was totally relaxed and was fun all the way. Not only is Ell one of the best, she has a wonderful and friendly personality- a truly lovely person.

I am so happy with the shoot and with all the amazingly beautiful images that I came away with - so many and such a fabulous variation of images.

Ell it was a joy to meet you and shoot with you. Many thanks for all the wonderful and beautiful images.

Definitely need another shoot to produce more magical images

Had my very first shoot with Ell yesterday at TBG Studios in Newmarket. Ell was a complete pro and a joy to work with. I was happy with what I viewed on the back of the camera but having uploaded them this morning and had a quick look on a bigger screen I'm over the moon at what we achieved. Loved working with her and look forward to working with her again.

Thanks Ell.
