I had a good shoot with John at the weekend he's very pleasant easy to get on with and brought with him a good level of creativity.

It's clear that John has lots of experience as he works effortlessly with the model who was from the very beginning very comfortable working with him.

Despite the vast array of equipment available in our studio he brought his own small, very simple lighting rig with him, and everything was shot on a single continuous light and umbrella.

Though we have lots of continuous lighting kit available in the studio, I've mostly only used it for video work, but I'm now more motivated to start using it for still work instead. The shoot the shoot was very enjoyable lots of banter and laughs between all three of us, and John will be very welcome back in the studio anytime in the future.

Our sixth shoot together, this time John booked onto another duo event organised by myself and the amazing Irongem at a fabulous, spacious apartment in Glasgow we had booked together offering some festive styles and more.

We captured some beautiful and sensual nude and erotic images and enjoyed a nice relaxed shoot.

John was his usual chatty and cheery self with some great conversation and banter throughout our shoot. It is always a pleasure and John is a thoughtful gentleman, respectful and profressional.

A genuinely lovely guy, very reliable and great communication leading up to and during your shoot. He gives confident and excellent direction and always has some fantastic ideas.

You will have a wonderful shoot with John and produce some stunning images. ✌️

Thanks again John.

Highly recommended.

Looking forward to our next shoot in the New Year. 😁

I enjoyed another fabulous shoot with John, in a hotel room I had booked in central Glasgow doing a mixture of portrait, artistic, glamour to nude and erotic styles. Our fifth shoot together and what a cracker of a shoot it was producing some beautiful images together once again.

Arriving promptly, we had a wee chat and then made great use of the time, space and furnishings and some items out of my big case full of outfits and accessories having a good laugh throughout our shoot.

John has a professional and welcoming manner, he is always really friendly and creates a nice relaxed shooting atmosphere. He is a very respectful gent with a passion to capture gorgeous images, experimenting with different angles, ideas and styles but he also knows what he is looking to achieve.

Such a genuinely nice person and wonderful photographer to create alongside, a gentleman and always looking out for your safety. You will have a really fun shoot in great company. 😄

Highly recommend to all. Don't miss out.

Thank you for another superb shoot John,

Bring on our next session.

A superb duo shoot with John, I enjoyed my fourth session with John this time attending a weekend duo event with myself and the lovely Irongem in a beautifully styled apartment space we had booked together in Glasgow.

John arrived promptly, full of ideas and after checking out the fabulous spaces and furnishings we had in the apartment to work with we chatted and captured some excellent images together.

Always eager to create something beautiful, glamorous and artistic John is such a joy to work alongside creating a chilled atmosphere. His communications are always perfect and he is extremely reliable, respectful and always looking out for your safety and comfort.

A nice and relaxed but productive shoot with John capturing some amazingly sensual and artistic images of Irongem and myself.

I highly recommend John to all.

Such a lovely character and always eager to create something wonderful and eye catching.

Until next time.

I had a lovely first shoot with John on Friday at Mypad studio. He was really chatty and good fun to work with making me feel at ease. He had lots of ideas and we used different parts of the studio. I had a great time and would happily recommend him and work with him again :)

Had many shoots with John over the years really enjoyed working with him again. 😊

I had a second shoot with this wonderful human whilst on another little tour in Glasgow. He is honestly one of the most friendly and lovely people to work with.

John produces lovely images and creates a great atmosphere to shoot in which shows when seeing the images he captures.

I highly recommend working with him to models of all levels - beginner or pro - he happily directs with poses aswell as allowing input to try and create some great work.

Friendly, outgoing comfortable to work with and a talented man. Absolute pleasure getting to work with him a second time.

Until the third!! :P

Gosh!! I have shot with John on so many occasions that is like shooting with an old friend.

I have already used so many superlatives that I have run out...lol

Needless to say (but I will) John is such an endearing and lovely man and our shoots together are a absolute pleasure to do and our time together is never dull.

We have now developed an open shoot policy and so whenever i venture into Scotland we get together for a shoot and I always look forward to it.

Until next time X

I highly recommend working with this absolute gentleman. John was a pleasure to work with and even though our shoot was short we managed to have a great blether and have fun whilst working together.

John is very professional to work with and a lovely positive soul. He brings a wonderfully relaxed attitude with him and is great at suggesting poses and what he is after with an image - a swell as giving a little free reign to help create the best image possible.

After seeing a couple images he really does create some lovely work which would make me recommend him even higher - not only is he great to work with, he knows what he is doing after plenty of experience and perfect ability with his camera.

Had my first shoot with John today, and what can l say? The preshoot comms were excellent, the chat flowed and the images look stunning. John is relaxed, easy to work with, professional and considerate. The time flew by, we worked through a variety of genres and had a good laugh. A definite 100% recommendation from me, and l look forward to our next shoot.

This was my second shoot with this charming man. John is a very capable photographer and knows what he wants to get and how to get it, he is so easy to work with and allows you to be comfortable and yourself. I will always enjoy working with John and whenever I am north of the boarder I will definitely make an effort to try and work with him again.

If anyone has a chance to work with him then they should.

Thank you once again for a great shoot xx Sarah

I had the pleasure of getting to work with John a couple of days ago in a studio I am familiar with. John was super welcoming and communicative from the get go and made a great effort to make me feel comfortable and have fun throughout our shoot. John has some great ideas and I am very happy with the images I have seen, can’t wait to work with this delightful gentleman in the future!
