Working with Doug recently was a very overdue experience.

Before the shoot he kept great communication and was kind enough to collect me and take me to and from the studio.

He gives great direction and is very encouraging.

I would happily recommend him to any model wanting something different in their portfolio !

I had the most wonderful time shooting with Doug yesterday. I saw his fantastic portfolio on here and I wanted to work with him immediately. He is extremely professional and I think his photography is amazing. I feel so honoured and lucky that I have been able to work with him I would recommend him 110% and I would jump at the chance to do it again. Thank you so much for having me :)

FBW is just wonderful. Always creative, always humble (TOO HUMBLE) and just brilliant. I've had the pleasure to attend his studio on a few occasions for workshops and get-togethers and he's always very accommodating, has NO ego and has a no-nonsense approach to producing stunners time and time again. Can't wait for my next shoot with him in his studio.

I had the pleasure of working with Dougie today for a portrait shoot. Dougie was very professional and polite. Bearing in mind that I am a newbie to modelling, he made me feel at ease and explained everything in detail. The studio was well equipped too. Thank you for a lovely shoot and I look forward to seeing the end result.

Dougie is an absolutely fantastic photographer and an equally fabulous host!

I've admired his work for some time so as soon as the opportunity arose for me to work with him, I snapped it up.

Knows what he wants, not afraid to give direction where needed, friendly, professional and extremely hospitable - even going as far as to put me up for a night as I had to travel from Nottingham.

I'd recommend him to anyone and would definitely love to work with him given the chance. (=

Thanks!

It was my first time working with Doug this weekend and I was thoroughly impressed!

Due to travelling so far, Doug sorted me with overnight accommodation and went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable. On the morning of the shoot he provided breakfast and tea!

Pre-shoot communication was excellent so when we arrived on set we were ready to rock and roll straight away.

Doug is an absolute pro and I'm so glad I have had the chance to work with him! 100% recommended.

I worked with Doug yesterday in Blackpool and it was well worth the travel. Doug is creative and quick, he knows exactly what he wants and he knows how to direct the model to get it.

Highly recommended and I look forward to working with him again.

Had a shoot with Doug today and I loved it :)

He is friendly and very professional!

Helped me with poses and everything and makes sure he gets everything right before he takes the picture (which I love)

Already received an image from today and it is just amazing!

Very, very skillful photographer! Just fantastic, highly recommend of course and would work with again and again! Thank you!

Oh and he makes a good cup of coffee btw! :P

Had my first shoot with Doug at his studio. It was a pleasure working with him, very talented with loads of creative ideas. Very professional, great to work with and even collected me from the station and dropped me off after the shoot. Highly recommended!

Had an amazing shoot with Doug the end of last month and love the shots that I've got from it! Gave great direction when needed but also let me do my own thing to get the best shots. Can't recommend him enough and would love to shoot with him again

I shot at the FLASH BANG WALLAP studio this week & had a great shoot with Doug - John Farrar

along with all the other models - mua:s: - photographers we all had a great day & everything ran smoothly I would really recommend the studio & workshops

Morissa Bradnick said...

I travelled up to the Flash Bang Wallop studios for a John Farrar workshop and i can not fault Dougie for his hospitality. He ensured all of the models were accommodated for and virtually waited on us hand and foot! He was patient with us during our style changes and through our lengthy make up transitions. He has a natural talent when taking pictures and when directing the model to stand, pose or look for the photos. A brilliant photographer and an amazing editor with a keen interest to highlight your striking features; I would highly recommend any model or photographer to work with him at any experience!

I would jump at the offer to collaborate again (as long as i dont drive him crazy with the 'Teach me how to Dougie' song) ;D

Thanks Dougie
