Lady McFaraway was modelling on a club night at 244 Studio. Wearing an array of costumes and working with a suspended hoop along with various props. For fun I rolled a oil heater onto the stage and in less than a second she worked out a series of poses that brought the prop into the story.

Highly recommended, she moves and poses with such elegance it is hard to remember to take pictures.

Met this wonderful lady for the first time and what a delight this was at the 244 studio club night and in the dinner upstairs we did grease theme rock and roll red and black outfit then amazing 1950s dress in the dinner and kitchen area every shot was a winner and Steph was one of the best models I have worked with and I learned a lot in the couple of hours shooting and really look forward to working with her again 🙏🏿♥️

We asked Steph to model at one of our club nights. We had very good pre shoot communication and she knew that she would be shooting upstairs only so brought outfits that would fit with the sets we have. She pulls of poses with ease and was very popular with our club members.

If you get the chance to work with Steph, grab it. Excellent model and lovely human being :-)

Had an amazing shoot with Steph this week. An amazing model with loads of ideas and a great sense of humour. Wonderful images and highly recommended.

And now for something different...

Estefy and I have worked on many a wacky concept over the years, however, this shot was the first time that Estefy worked with both myself and the fantastically talented Kasia, @skinny_red_art. Kasia both rigged the shoot and styled the set!

Pre-shoot communication was, as always, was a breeze, especially given the nature of the concept the bits and bats were a little more involved than usual.

Estefy fitted into the 'team' effortlessly with creative suggestions, bouncing ideas off each other, and as a result a set of fantastic images.

The day flew by, helped by lashings of tea and cake as well as fun and hilarity between set-ups and serious and focused when "action" was called.

Without wishing to sound like a broken record, highly recommended.

We had Steph in for a sold out studio day using our hoops. She is excellent and was a pleasure to work with. Excellent pre shoot communication and the shoot was a lot of fun. She pulls off so many different looks and shapes. She is very versatile too

Highly recommended to others

Had many shoots with Steph who is always such a pleasure to work with and this time was no exception.

Steph stepped in at the last minute due to having had a cancellation. Came prepared as always and I was able to do the shoot I had originally planned.

Steph is a joy to work with and super easy to gey the results you want.

Thanks again for working with me.

Estefy and I have worked together countless times over many years, and this weekend saw the 'old team' back together after a bit of a gap!!

As always, pre-shoot communication was spot on, with a simple concept that allowed for a number of variations to the look. Estefy has the ability to bring characters and themes to life, and it is the little touches like that that elevate the final images.

The variety of images speak for themselves, and for me, it is always fun to be able to play around with my lighting set-ups.

Needless to say, we have already got a couple of 'big production numbers' in the planning.

For all photographers out there, if you get the opportunity to work with Estefy you should jump at the chance, your portfolio will thank you for it!

Highly recommend.

I have worked with Steph on lots of shoots and can highly recommend her to photographers and creatives. Her communication is always excellent and during shoots she is professional but also has a great sense of humour. She will assist with poses and takes direction very well. She is a natural in front of the camera. Highly recommended

I’m delighted to provide this testimonial for an exceptionally talented model following our recent collaboration, and her first experience of shibari rope suspension. As a seasoned rigger and photographer, I have had the pleasure of working with a variety of models and Steph (@Lady McFaraway) stands out as a remarkable individual in every aspect.

From the outset, it was clear that she possesses a rare combination of curiosity and courage; displaying throughout a blend of professionalism, enthusiasm and a genuine passion for exploring this art form. Steph's capacity to communicate and respond to the nuances of rope added a unique and personal dimension to the entire experience. Her natural ability to embody the essence of each pose, and trust in the creative process, imbuing our collaboration with an energy that translated beautifully into the final images.

I can confidently say that Steph would have a bright future as a shibari rope bottom. Her positive attitude and fearlessness in embracing the unknown make her a standout collaborator. I look forward to future opportunities to work together.

couple weeks back, I had an amazing first photo shoot in Edinburgh with Steph. Working with Steph is enjoyable as she moves smoothly between poses and listens well to instructions. It was an impromptu shoot but communication was really good and she arrived on time. Really enjoyed the time with steph and the next shoot is already planned.

She's very artistic and professional. Highly recommend and looking forward to our next project. :)

I had a fabulous first shoot with Steph today on location in Edinburgh. Pre-shoot communication was excellent allowing us to develop a clear plan for the shoot and Steph arrived early and ready to shoot. The weather was rather rainy but Steph was very prepared to get wet in pursuit of a good shot which was much appreciated and we took advantage of some lovely undercover locations.Steph poses very naturally but also took direction well.

I have no hesitation in recommending Steph and am looking forward to working with her again when hopefully the weather will be kinder to us.

Just finished our 2nd shoot together....and Stef was AWESOME!! Within minutes of arrival we were shooting like mad. I ditched the flash for natural window light and we got some excellent images. Stef is such an utter pleasure to work with and she flows effortlessly from pose to pose and takes direction well. I can't recommend this beautiful young lady enough.....she is utter perfection! There will be MANY more shoots together in the very near future!

Well we finally had our first shoot, took us a little while but worth it.

Lady is a fantastic model, our communications before hand were spot on, allowing us to know what we were going to be shooting and for her to be prepared with outfits to fit the style.

She turned up early for the shoot, and right from the start we chatted away. We made great use of our time, getting lots of fantastic images.

Highly recommend and look forward to our next shoot!!

Steph was gracious to come be one of several models for me on a shoot in Glasgow as part of my college graded unit, and was generous enough to help give a lift to two other models/MUA who also came from Edinburgh. Very kind, polite, beautiful and looks fabulous on camera. Pleasure to work with and hope we will again. Absolutely recommend.

First shoot with Lady McFaraway. Professional, great communication pre shoot and during, great fun and really tries to deliver the vision. Very easy model to work with, irrespective of photographer's level (Amateur or Professional). She just works so hard at getting it right and like me, just wants to get "That shot". I am already planning me second shoot, Lady McFaraway made the whole process stress free.

I have worked with Stef on many shoots ranging from bridal to creative to body painting. Stef is a highly respected PRO model here in Scotland. She is always on time, has excellent pre-shoot comms and will get involved in sharing ideas for a shoot. She needs no direction, has an ocean of poses and will absolutely create amazing images with you. Friendly with a great sense of humour, you are guaranteed a relaxed fun shoot!

I cannot recommend Stef highly enough and will always be thankful she works with me. Looking forward to the next project!
