Third shoot with Lydia. The girls a legend, what more can I say? Down to earth and friendly. A complete pro and I'd highly recommend working with her to anyone. Many thanks and hope to work with you again in the not too distant future x

Lydia arrived on time, at the MicroPop studio, with all the cosplay outfits as requested in our excellent pre-comms. Lydia was fully prepared with very well applied light makeup, which nicely emphasised her eyes. Lydia worked hard during the shoot, very responsive, we worked well together, discussing several poses, and areas of the studio to work in. The costumes she had brought with were amazing, very impressive. All together it was a terrific shoot, and I have obtained some great images, thank you Lydia.

What an absolutely superb model and a pleasure to photograph. Lydia arrived with perfect makeup and with loads of clothing for our shoot. Lydia poses freely as well as being responsive to micro direction. There was plenty of banter throughout the shoot. Lydia is a pleasure to work with, the images from the back of camera were awesome.

We worked well together, and I hope to work with Lydia again soon.

Highly Recommended

Had a wonderful time shooting with Lydia today! We were able to hit 6 looks in just two hours on three different sets (in studio). Pre shoot communications were great, we discussed concepts, ideas, and she brought it all together for the shoot. She is very elegant while posing and can free pose with style and grace very well. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and recommend her to others.

It was a pleasure to photograph Lydia at PGD Studios in Leicester as part of their 'Girl on Fire' studio event. Lydia has a seemingly endless ranges of poses and each setup flows effortlessly. She is friendly and highly professional, and I'm delighted with the images from the evening. Highly recommended.

A couple of weeks ago I shot with Lydia for the first time when I booked a remote session with her during her studio day at PGD Studios and I must say that I found her to be true joy to work with. I found her to be super friendly and extremely professional. Pre-shoot communications were excellent and she had all the outfits I requested to shoot and, despite initially not planning on bringing her pole along, I am glad she did as it presented an opportunity to shoot something I've not had the chance to shoot before with some fantastic results as her pole skills were fantastic and we were able to produce some stunning images. We also shot some non pole dance shots as well as some fashion stuff and I found her to be great with her posing across the board, even introducing some cool props to add some extra variety to the fashion set. I feel we conversed well throughout and I found her a delight to work with. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Lydia and would love to shoot with her again in the future. Very highly recommended!

Had an amazing studio shoot with Lydia at PGD in Leicester. We'd gone back and forth over a number of ideas and outfits, all of which were laid out when I got to the studio. Poses were endless and flowing all through the shoot and when I had ideas Lydia took them and ran with them. Lydia is kind, polite, full of energy and a pleasure to work with; I will definitely be shooting with her again in future and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone.

I decided it was time to try and combine photographing aircraft with shooting with a model. I was so fortunate to find Girl on Fire, who was happy to come along to Norfolk were I have access to an airfield and some aircraft. She was very patient with me as this was so obviously a first for me and coped well with fact I was ‘winging it’.

GOF is an amazing model. She brought a wide range of clothes and was happy to change in what was definitely not a traditional models room. As well as posing effortlessly she was great company through our time together… I think we both thoroughly enjoyed the day. This terrific young lady is highly recommended and I look forward to our next shoot.

GOF was the model for an introduction to portrait photography workshop covering 4 themes – Ambient light, low-key, high key and dance photography. One of the great assets of employing her and particularly when comparing her to other models, is that she has an excellent of range outfits to bring along that ideally match themes. She was really helpful with all the participants and gave a really useful talk on how to work with models. She was a big hit with the group. Look forward to working with her again in the near future. Highly recommend to others.

Another great shoot with GOF. I was looking to try some creative dance work. She is certainly the best model for this sort of theme. So easy to work with and is open to trying out new ideas with enthusiasm. She has some great poses & moves and outfits to help achieve the theme and to create some stunning images. An excellent model and a lovely lady. Highly recommend to others.

Just had the enormous pleasure of a second shoot with Girl ON Fire who is a natural beauty on the outside complimented by amazing internal beauty and kindness. She has an amazing personality remains totally professional and is so driven by her work ethic and her positivity which are second to none. She plans ahead turns up on time with a superb selection of outfits and works hard to make the shoot successful. She poses freely with great style and with lots of input whilst encouraging your own ideas. this is particularly important for someone inexperienced and nervous like myself and I would recommend her for all levels of photographers from beginner to professional. If you get a chance to shoot with her then grab the opportunity of a superb experience.

Thank you so much Girl on Fire for helping me to learn so much about model photography before, during and after the shoot and I sincerely hope we get the chance to work together again soon.

Second shoot with the wonderful Lydia aka Girl On Fire. What a pleasure she is to shoot with. She arrived on time with a great selection of outfits.

We walked around Lincoln taking shots in the historic quarter, and boy was it fun. She poses beautifully (and appropriately for shoot style). I can't speak highly enough of her if I am honest. She is a fun person to shoot with, totally professional in front of the camera, willing to go the extra mile and throws ideas in on the shoot. What more could you ask for.

Grea model, very highly recommended

Another awesome shoot with the wonderful class act that is girl on fire. I had booked in the studio day at Studio3bySevern and was delighted to have the opportunity to work with GoF again.

As always she was fully prepared with everything (and more) that we had discussed and she had already got a head full of ideas, taking my meagre concept and making it into reality. She is extremely intelligent with great conversation, a great sense of humour and a wicked smile. The time just flies as GoF switches from pose to pose with graceful elegance and professional poise. I have not got enough words to say how wonderful she is. Shooting with GoF is like having a chat with your best mate, easy, comfortable, relaxed and great fun. Her dance skills are awesome and her facial expressions tell the story expertly

If you have not worked with GoF yet you must add her to your WLTWW list

Would I recommend - hell yes everyday of the week and twice at the weekend! Thank you thank you thank you

This was my second shoot with Lydia and one I was really looking forward to after last time. Prior to the day communication was excellent. On the shoot its self I really cant praise Lydia enough, she is a joy to take photographs of and superb to work with. As before I was so enjoying myself that we didn't get through all our ideas and I am already looking forward to third shoot when Lydia is available. A super shoot. Thank you Lydia.

This lady is a class act. I booked Lydia for a lighting workshop at the studio. It's the 3 time working with Lydia and she certainly gets my recommendation. We mostly covered Ballet down at the studio and it was spot on. This girl was certainly on fire. 🙂🔥👌

JayceClarke

Second time I have booked Lydia and impressed the more I work with her as she adaptes to he genre with ease (from princess to ballerina).

Lydia’s professional (yet down to earth) attitude means I will be working with her again.

This was my second shoot with Lydia within a few days. Having worked with her in Libre Studio, I snapped up the chance to do a location shoot around the centre of Liverpool. She is very easy to get on with and is also quite brilliant at posing, moving effortlessly from one look to another. It is also rare to find someone who can do dance shots so naturally in a public setting; she also has some great ideas for shots. Hopefully we will be able to shoot together soon. Lydia is very highly recommended by me.

Studio Albert and Victoria

A really incredible lady with superb communication skills. If I said the next adventure was already booked and the one after is at the date sorting stage you would get the idea this is a model to work with. It is and you really should, from ballet to firesticks, a really professional but fun lady. I cannot wait - totally recommended and thank you for a superb afternoon............

Responded to Lydia’s casting. She’s even better than I expected, A joy to work with, easy going and clearly knows her craft. Seamlessly going from one set to the next made for a most productive shoot.

Very happy with the results and looking forward to a follow-up shoot. Many Thanks Lydia!
