I had met Gem a couple of times at various events but this was the first time I had a chance to shoot with her which I was looking forward to as she has a great look that I wanted to add to my portfolio. Gem is a great model with a strong versatile look. She is very creative and understands fashion and editorial styles. I would highly recommend Gem as a model to both new and experiences photographers. I would very much like to work with her again. :)

Lovely first time shoot with Gem at Paul's Studio Manor House event.

She has classic looks with a fine figure and her long flowing red hair; she has a nice personality, very good at modelling/posing and enthusiastically engaged in creating some great photos together, especially as she works both sides of the camera and is an experienced make-up artist; she is especially suited to portraying the traditional Renaissance art nude scene which fitted well with the historic surroundings of the Manor House, however, she is also very versatile and a great model when creating other genres.

Highly recommended.

I had the privilege of working with Gem at the Manor House shoot arranged by Pauls Studio. Gem is a very relaxing model to work with and a real pleasure to talk to! We shot a couple of fashion, boudoir & implied/nude sets and I'm really happy with the results – Gem immediately understood what I was looking to achieve and was very enthusiastic as we worked through ideas

Absolutely would recommend Gem as a fantastic model and I hope I'm lucky enough to work with her again.

I'm very fortunate indeed to have spent a day creating with Gemma.

She's well known for her pre-Raphaelite looks and her classic art nude work. Yet there's so much more to her than that.

Our shoot was organised at very short notice with a fairly minimal brief - commercial but eye-catching. Pre-shoot, the ideas flowed and coalesced quickly and Gemma went to some trouble to source some highly original outfits.

Then on shoot day we chatted, we played, we listened to some tunes, we explored some blind alleys and found some fabulously productive avenues while we circled around the brief.

I can't enthuse enough about the day. She's a stylist, a set designer, a makeup artist, a photographer, a retoucher, a model and a muse. Work with her to add some instant quality to your fashion portfolio.

Recommend? Of course. Gemma's reputation as a model precedes her. With good reason. Professional and yet respectful of lesser talents she gives her experience full reign to create great images. All of this was evident at an event styled by Tabitha Boydell which I attended.

My first shoot with this lovely lady at the boardroom Derby . Its difficult too ad something new to some one who has over 400 positive references, but i would like too add how easy this lady is to work with , you strait away feel at ease with her put this with the fact that she is a superb model you can not fail to have a very productive shoot . I really enjoyed our shoot , and have no hesitation in recommending her to all photographers.

Fabulous shoot with Gemma at the Boardroom, a very interesting, pleasant, easy to talk with beautiful young lady, the 3 hour shoot flew by and we created some wonderful images.

Many thanks to Phil at the Boardroom who designed and built the brilliant classical set which Gemma complemented perfectly with her graceful beauty.

Highly recommended.

I managed to get a last minute slot shooting with Gemma on her Boardroom studio days. Since I literally booked the evening before and shot first thing we didn't have time to plan the shoot but that wasn't an issue at all as Gemma had loads of outfit options and her hair and make up was perfect for the images I wanted to achieve. I honestly feel we created art on this shoot! I would recommend Gem in a heartbeat.

I had my first shoot with Gem today at the Boardroom in Derby, she is a lovely model to work with producing effortless natural poses and I am very pleased with the images we produced. I would defiantly work with Gem again.

I was delighted to have the opportunity to photograph Gem during her studio day at The Boardroom in Derby. Communications prior to the shoot were excellent, and everything on the day itself ran smoothly with Gem being ready to start as soon as I arrived. Working with Gem was a pleasure - she is friendly, energetic and has seemingly endless poses. She has numerous outfits and many excellent ideas about to use them to great effect. It was an enjoyable, creative and productive photoshoot, and I was delighted with the images I came away with. I can recommend Gem highly, and look forward to working with her again.

Another successful studio day with Gem today. Gem arrives in plenty of time and with lots of lovely outfits that we managed to shoot a few.

So very brilliant at posing and putting together outfits that enhance her beautiful looks.

A very talented model that is so very easy to recommend.

Looking forward to her return later this summer.

Had the most amazing shoot with Gem today after she responded to one of my casting, after a couple of messages exchanged, we had a shoot booked in and all planned! She is a very warm and friendly person who is fantastic to shoot with. Her posing is flawless with little subtle changes that allow you to capture the moment! Hair and make up was also on point! We only had a quick 2 hour shoot, but I really cannot wait to shoot with her again! I am thrilled with the photos and cannot wait to share them

Thank you so much Gem it’s an absolute pleasure :-)

Fabulous shoot with Gem, been years since we last worked together and when I saw her post a casting, I jumped at the chance to work with her again.

Since it was last minute, I didn’t really have much of a plan, but we managed to put together some quick sets and time flew by quickly.

Always have a great time shooting with Gem and would highly recommend her to anyone.

Thanks for the day Gem.

A super shoot with Gem today in London. Everthing went perfectly with the organisation and a most productive session ensued. Gem was able to come up with exactly what I was envisaging in outfits and posing and we have created marvelous images here.

Gem is a most accomplished model and a very nice person to work with.

Gem is a model that I had been meaning to arrange a shoot with for many years. So when I saw her recent casting I had to respond! She is great at posing without direction and has a huge selection of clothes. Gem is an easy person to work with and I would highly recommend her.

I had another wonderful shoot with Gem today. I asked her to bring a dress or two and she brought a Hollywood Style long sparkly gown that became the focus of the shoot. She looks perfect in it. Despite looking much younger than her years Gem is an invaluable source of tips and poses to improve the pictures of togs who are sensible enough to listen. She is easy to chat to and time always flies by - a good sign in my book. Thanks Gem - you are a real gem!
