I had a fantastic first shoot with Ani last week.

We were working from his Airbnb and got a lovely range of shots working with natural light. He was very respectful at all times and easy to work with.

I was really impressed by his portfolio on here and I loved all of the photos we got from what I saw from the back of the camera.

Would absolutely recommend and would happily work with again. :)

Second shoot with Ani!

His photography and editing are truly improving with every second. I can't actually quite believe the leaps he has been taking as it is clearly his aim to become the best in beauty & editorial.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Ani for the second time. Although this time the shoot was more impromptu, I suggested the studio as he and I happened to have a free date last minute and I knew we would be onto something amazing - I just fully trusted that he will deliver. He did.

I wish you all the best Ani - and thank you for leaving me a reference again. Can't wait to see how our images turned out :)

Ani gets my highest recommendation possible.

Hopefully until next time,

I have had a wonderful shoot with Ani! Pre comms were great as he presented a detailed mood board full of fashion / editorial ideas. He was very easy to get along with, all whilst having a professional attitude. His work is incredible and has a high attention to detail knowing exactly what he wants from an image with a clear vision. He has excellent knowledge on lighting which I was thoroughly impressed with and the images just speak for themselves! I cannot wait to see the end results! I would definitely recommend him and hope to shoot with him again sometime in the future :)

I shot with Ani yesterday, alongside Claire a talented makeup artist in the Barbican area of London. We had a really fantastic shoot, with several locations and outfits. Ani presented skills that a professional photographer has, good with set-up, lighting, creativity, technical skills, attention to detail etc. I'm happy to have worked with him on this potential magazine submission, I hope to work with you again soon! xxx

Worked with Ani for the first time yesterday as he booked the studio in London and arranged for me to travel down for a day.

Oh wow, it was definitely worth it!

I knew that it would be, the range of work that I have seen in his portfolio demonstrates his experience and talent. I especially like the direction in which his most recent work is going in, editorial, fashion, and beauty - he is smashing it. Forgot to mention excellent pre-comms and beautifully presented mood board for inspiration.

Absolutely recommend working with Ani if you get an opportunity, I would definitely travel anywhere for him to shoot next time, doesn't matter what it takes :)

Phenomenal.

I had a lovely shoot with Ani last week in the beautiful Wiltshire countryside.

Ani booked on to one of mine and Adrian's assisted location shoots, we picked Ani up from the station and drove him to several locations throughout the shoot.

Ani was brilliant to work with, easy going, professional and a great photographer, images looked amazing on the back of camera.

We had a beautiful sunny day and it was so nice to be able to work outside again in the warm :)

Thanks for a great shoot!

Best

I worked with Anil about a week ago in a location he rented.

We shot fashion / fashion nude and the photos he took were already stunning without any modification, I can't imagine how good the final results will be!

In addition to being a very welcoming person, he is an exceptional photographer with incredible editing skills.

Highly recommended, I personally really enjoyed working with him!

Thanks Anil, see you soon!

It has been a pleasure to meet Anil. To begin with, he was very good at pre-communication and he was understanding on the day when I had to move the time slightly due to an unexpected event.

Anil was professional, warm, and encouraging throughout the photo shoot. It is a great skill to intuit the best scenario for the model and to direct the content in a way that brings out the best in the other person. Anil was that, a good host and an artistic collaborator. I thoroughly enjoy meeting people who see the beauty in life, and I hope you too can have a similar experience with Anil.

I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Anil for the first time at his home studio.

What a fantastic shoot!!!

It was really refreshing to work with somebody with such attention to detail, and clear vision. A perfectionist!

Anil is super professional, hard working and a joy to work with.

I love the images that I was shown, and cant wait to see the results.

Cant believe that we are so local to each other and hadn't crossed paths before!

Highly recommended by me.

Super knowledgeable, great style, a good host and overall lovely person!

Thanks for having me.

Cant wait until next time!

Had an amazing shoot with Anil today!! I knew we were going to from the beautiful moodboard and fantastic pre communications. We both have an eye for editorial, and the results were epic.

Anil was a total professional with an amazing eye for lighting and pose. The best shoots are the ones that feel easy and we both just did our jobs and the photographs flowed beautifully. I’m really excited to see what becomes of our images!!

I had a fantastic first shoot with Anil today, shooting from my home location.

Anil’ pre shoot comms were spot on and he came prepared with a good idea of what he wanted to achieve in the 6 hours we had booked.

He was friendly, professional and made me feel at ease. The shoot was relaxed, yet structured and productive. Anil was incredibly easy to work with and was able to direct me where needed.

Anil has a great eye when it comes to concepts and photography, his passion really shows on a shoot. I liked that he choose concepts I wouldn’t typically shoot and had lots of creative ideas.

The shoot absolutely flew by which is always a good sign. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and can’t wait to see some of the finished results.

I would recommend Anil without hesitation.

I look forward to our next project!

Thanks again,

Serenity~x

I had a wonderful shoot with Anil today at my flat. Pre comms were great and Anil had plenty of ideas to work with. He adapted to the space and light available very quickly and is helpful with creative ideas for wardrobe and posing.

Anil was polite and courteous throughout our shoot and was lovely to chat to.

Highly recommended, thank you for a brilliant shoot!

Another great shoot with Anil today, in London's streets. Anil answered my casting call and we managed to create amazing images though different locations I've pre-selected. Anil is clearly passionate about photography and gets better and better. Great company as well, very relaxed. I am looking forward to our next shoot. 100% recommended.

Recently I had my first shoot with Anil which was an absolute pleasure and total fun! :)

I enjoyed Anil's positive/ creative energy throughout our shoot and was so pleased with his eagerness to achieve those best shots!

Anil is very well orientated with lightning which I find truly impressive! He's up for trying new creative ideas and also high fashion end style.

He's very professional, pre comms were spot on! and he's such a pleasure to be and work with! :)

I enjoyed each moment of our shoot and couldn't be more impressed with results we have achieved!

Thank you once again for wonderful collaboration and definitely recommend to all 100%!

Hope to work with you again in the future :)

All the best

I cannot recommend Anil highly enough :-)

Absolutely lovely person, very polite and professional throughout all our pre-shoot communications, and I was really exited to work with Anil from the get-go.

We shot a range of different styles, edgy fashion through to some nude ethereal shots in the bath, and Anil made me feel completely comfortable being nude around him the whole time, he was great company as well, very relaxed, kind, fun and intelligent, just a very easy person to talk to, which makes my job incredibly easy :-)

Aside from having a lovely afternoon with Anil, he is also very talented and passionate about photography, he didn’t take millions of photos but instead made sure that each photo he did take was great and what he wanted, so I just hope he is as happy with our shoot as I was!

Thanks Anil for a lovely afternoon! Very highly recommended and is welcome back any time!

Really glad I finally nailed this wandering photographer down! We had a blast getting-to-know-you shoot at his rented flat in Reading. He picked me up and dropped me back off at the station like a proper gent. Moreover, Anil is very talented photographer, especially considering how long he’s been shooting for. In the small space he had, Anil was able to get very creative and try out a few super cool editorial styles. Working with him was awesome and I hope to do so again very soon!

Another productive and enjoyable shoot with Anil.

Third time we worked together and probably not the last. I love working with Anil.

That time I had the chance to organise a quick shoot with him before he went back to Bangkok. We've been shooting in a fabulous location called Elan Cafe in Mayfair and then, 2h in the Clock Tower. Always a pleasure to work with Anil who is truly passionate about photography and gets better and better all the time I meet him. He's a bit of a perfectionist like me and I bet this is why we work so well together :-D

Can't wait for our next shoot.
