I met Esme yesterday for an abandoned location shoot, she arrived in plenty of time ahead of our planned shot time.

She has an amazing vintage look to herself, which I only hope I have done justice to.

Esme had brought a good selection of clothing with her, all of which fitted the shoot plan that had been laid out.

She was great at posing and was happy to work along side a male model that she had only met at the start of the shoot.

I would definitely recommend her, and I look forward to shooting with her again

I met Esme for an abandoned photoshoot today. What an absolute pleasure !!

Esme has an amazing vintage look to her, she did her hair and makeup to an awesome standard!

Esme arrives at the shoot with a range of outfits and ideas to shoot in them. Esme can take direction very well and has great communication skills, it was a pleasure to just chat aswell as shoot!

I was a pain as I wanted "one more shot" when we had packed everything away, Esme was more than happy to change outfits so we could get the shot.

I would recommend Esme to photographers nationwide. I cant wait to work with her again!

Thankyou for a lovely shoot !

I had a fabulous last min shoot with Esme!

After a model cancelled Esme responded to a casting call and after working with Esme before I knew it would be a great shoot!

Esme was ready on time, up for all the photos we wanted to create and even though the weather was against us...

I cant wait to work with Esme again! Such a lovely model and highly recommended from me !!

I was delighted to shoot with Esme two days ago, she is a dream to work with, very friendly and relaxed, And I very much look forward to working with her again.

I was delighted to shoot with Esme yesterday - I've been an admirer of her vintage look for a while and she brought it to our shoot in spades! A lot of real enthusiasm and patience while the idiot behind the camera repeatedly messed up settings but we got there in the end.

Esme arrived promptly and ready to go, is fun to work with, takes directions well, gives lots of feedback too (which I enjoyed!) and is someone with whom I will certainly hope to shoot with again as my experience and skills develop.

A thousand recommendations.

I organised a Vintage Fashion & Pinup shoot for the Brighton & Hove Camera Club at my studio. I have two rooms so hired two models.

I had good communications with Esme before the shoot and discussed outfits and the look we were trying to achieve. Esme arrived on time and had hair and makeup ready to go. She is hard working and very professional. I had 11 photographers at the workshop - male and female and all enjoyed the day very much.

Esme was good humoured contributed creative ideas and vey keen to help get us the great shots.

I would very much recommend Esme and will certainly work with her again.

I modelled at a Studio workshop day on the same day as Esme in Hove at Wayne Grudy's Photography Club and met and chatted to her there. We travelled to the Studio location together, assisted each other in getting ready between sets and I enjoyed chatting and getting to know Esme. Her vintage clothing and style was very traditional and she is a lovely person, punctual, professional and I would highly recommend working with her. I hope to see Esme again at another shoot or Vintage event!

I worked with Esme today; what an absolute wonderful person. Esme arrived on time, kept in contact before the shot and worked with all ideas and suggestions.

Polite and very professional, the time just flew by; I will defiantly recommend Esma and I look forward to working on some vintage ideas very soon.

Recently did the second of 2 fantastically fun shoots with Esme, experimenting with patterned light after Esme sent out a casting call to do this with some very interesting Pinterest reference images.

Esme is an absolute joy to work with, very professional, working really easily with and without direction. She also contributed loads to the shoots creatively with great ideas for makeup and also lots of ideas for poses. For the second shoot she turned up band on time, already immaculately made up and ready to shoot, and we got some great images both times!

I really enjoyed both shoots I have done with Esme and would totally recommend working with her. I hope to work with her again in the future! :-)

I had the pleasure of working with Esme a couple of weeks ago. Pre-comms were great discussing and sharing ideas, so we both had a good idea of what we were looking to do.

Esme arrived already made-up with good outfits for the shoot. She is instantly likeable being friendly and chatty, and she still complain once about my appalling sense of direction as we rambled around fields and woods! :) She's enthusiastic, poses well but also takes direction as required.

Esme is great fun to work with and thoroughly recommended :)

Richard James Studio

I met Esme in my studio today as she was booked by another photographer; she is very pleasant, polite and came across very professional.

Esme left her area clean and tidy, watching her work with the other photography she came across a wonderful person to work with.

I planned to book her for my own session very soon.

Had the pleasure of working with Esme for the second time this weekend. She braved the pouring rain and arrived at the studio looking immaculate with a great selection of clothing.

She has a great look, poses and takes direction really well, and is full of ideas to make the most out of a shoot.

A really fun model to work with. Highly recommended!

I have worked with Esme on a few shoots, great to work with. Polite, easy going, friendly and a pleasure to photograph. Always has ideas, turns up on time, would make a great addition to your portfolio.

I had the great pleasure of doing Esme's makeup for a vintage themed shoot with ChrisD3 on 19th July.

Esme was a joy to work with and we all had great fun on the shoot. Beautiful face that suits the vintage look perfectly. I hope to work with Esme again in the future! She is a complete natural at modelling and I have no hesitation in recommending her.

I had a vintage themed shoot with Esme on Sunday the 19th of July, our mua was TanyaLouiseMUA on here :-)

Esme really got into the shoot and we all had a big bag of fun out on location, she brought along an impressive collection of period clothing, needed little direction and took it well.

Such a pleasant personality. A reliable, responsible model, very keen and competent. If you are looking to shoot pin up or any form of vintage/period style then a serious contender to hire and book is Esme.

I find it hard to believe that Esme has been modelling for less than 6 months - her professionalism in both attitude and ability make her seem far more experienced. There was no drama when I was late arriving (anybody want to buy a 2nd hand satnav ?) and Esme worked through the cold without issue. She takes direction well yet equally has a natural ability to know what's needed. Excellent comms throughout and a real pleasure to work with.Highly recommended.

Just had the great pleasure of shooting Esme for some classic pin up images. What a lovely person and so easy to work with, hope I can do the images justice :-). Excellent comms, on time and ready to work. Hope to work with her again, highly recommended.

Just going through the photos following a fabulous shoot with the lovely Esme Shard. This girl is good. Very good. She has a perfect vintage look, a fabulous figure, wonderful posture and absolutely no tattoos. Not even a small one. And she can do that wonderful vintage concave waist thing - just like pinup models of the 1940s and 1950s did.

In addition she is punctual, reliable and her pre-shoot comms are excellent.

Only trouble is that shooting with Esme somehow distorts the time-space continuum, and a six hour shoot whizzes by in what seemed like about twenty minutes. :-) So needless to say we are busy organising our next shoot.

Super model, lovely person and very highly recommended.

I had my first shoot with Esme Shard @Shutterworks Studio and it went really well. Esme has great pre communications so we both had an idea of what we wanted to get from it. The first set we did was pinup and the second a gothic theme, she had amazing outfits for both ! She really suited both looks well. She naturally finds poses that work really well with the styles we shot and I cant wait to work with her again ! An excellent model.

Excellent shoot with Esme today. Great communication to arrange our last minute shoot this morning. She arrived looking stunning, in her vintage style, and ready to shoot. She is hard working, takes direction well and has a great personality. Really enjoyed our shoot and look forward to working with her again. Highly recommended!
