I had the great pleasure of meeting Grace for the first time on an international workshop run by Dan Tidswell in Gran Canaria and soon found out that she was an incredibly talented super' model as well as a creative and excellent stylist. Grace undertook some tricky locations with sun, sand and glare but never complained and was always ensuring that the group got to shoot what they wanted as well as something quite fab. She has a unique set of looks and it is too easy to pause, check the camera and miss more killer shots. If she arrives with two suitcases then one will contain some terrific styled outfits with equally spot on accessories, and, the other, will contain a wealth of poses, shapes, looks and talent which she deploys effortlessly and to great effect in order to deliver awesome shots. Grace has very high expectations of herself and is able to listen to your ideas as well share her thoughts.

On the six day workshop and outside the shoots, I found Grace to be a very friendly, polite, cheerful person with a positive attitude and was a valuable as well as strong team player who would help out with cooking and chill with rest of us. I would not hesitate to sign up and work with Grace again and recommend her wholeheartedly.

Second time working with Grace, this time on an international workshop for a few days, I didn't think it was possible but it was even more fun this time around, we had a great shoot the first time in the studio but our second shoot was just magical.

Grace was simply perfect, great to chat and laugh with in between shoots, but the moment the camera is pointing at her she transforms into a totally different person, this is the person that you see in her portfolio.

I will be planning our next shoot real soon.

First shoot with Grace today - what can I say we had a blast!

Pre shoot communications were excellent. She came prepared with loads of different costumes, ideas, energy and posed with a fluent elegance. She is the consummate professional model, a thoroughly nice person and so easy to get on with. I came away having a had a really enjoyable morning and also with some great images.

I hope to be able to work with Grace again soon

Highly recommended without any reservation

Shit Grace on a duo shoot with Amber Tutton a few days ago, was a bit last minute but seemed like too good an opportunity to miss. Grace is beautiful, talented and we enjoyed a real laugh on a productive shoot.

Grace worked really well in tandem with Amber, they complemented each other really well. From the number of great shots to work through you can tell this was a productive shoot. Hopefully get the chance to work with Grace again.

Still smiling about ‘the salmon’ such a fun shoot.

Worked with Grace a few times now, she’s a total dream to work with and in honesty not even her images do her justice! She’s gorgeous!

He character shines through her images, but you’ll be ecstatic after meeting her and realising what a kind and genuine human she is.

We have worked with Sebastian Cartier together 2 times, then did a tour of Birmingham together and we have just got back from a trip to Cyprus we were booked onto!

As a duo we rock!

I’d be thrilled to be booked onto more assignments with her!

Total dream model to work with

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO ALL!

She’s royalty to the industry!

Zeus photoshoot

I had the pleasure of working with Grace on a Zeus photography holiday in Cyprus during 3-6 May this year. Grace is such a pleasure to work with! She’s highly professional, poses beautifully and she’s always inaccurately presented down to the last detail, including nails and toe nails the colour of which matches the location and aims of the shoot. Grace is reliable, had no difficulty getting up for early morning shoots at 6am and a real pleasure to be around, a considerate and caring person who deserves the very best not only as a model but also in life. Very highly recommended - and apologies it took an FPI to remind me to write this reference. I do hope that I will have the opportunity to work again with Grace both in the UK and abroad in the very near future!

I had the opportunity to work with Grace for the 1st time, answered her casting for a 4 hour shoot.

Straight of the bat, comms were great, we exchanged details, where I sent over mood boards so she could get an idea what I wanted to shoot.

On arriving she asked me to come in as I was early as she was still shooting, So when shooting with Grace she is super friendly and super professional, posses effortlessly with little direction required, very courteous offering me drinks throughout the shoot.

We went through a number of sets, banging out some jaw droppers.

Got some cracking images from the shoot, very pleased, can’t wait to book her again.

Highly recommended.

Phew where to start ....and where to finish ??!!

Great, very quick and concise pre-shoot comms enabled us to nail a date in the dairy and book the venue. Grace arrived with flawless hair and make up all styled as requested with accessories and bags of enthusiasm.

It was clear from the 1st frame Grace had correctly interpreted the style of the shoot, she is something of a pose machine with lots of subtle variation which ensured each frame was nuanced and unique.

Grace contributed with styling variations throughout the shoot, collaboration resulted in a CF card full of stunning images.

Thanks again Grace for a truly delightful shoot

Had a wonderful shoot with Grace today. She and Dan Tidswell were teaching at The Loft Studio.

She had clearly put enormous thought and work into setting it up beforehand. Then, on the day was a delight with whom to work. I knew from her images that she is beautiful with an amazing figure. But she is also highly professional, dedicated, and enormous fun.

Only one serious problem - I have too many wonderful images to sort through!

Recommended 100%. Many thanks Grace:)

Grace is very easy to work with needing no direction unless you’re after something specific obviously.

From shooting out and about in london amongst the wind and security to finishing off in a hotel getting some epic shots in a bar.

Grace is just a wonderful human, beautiful inside and out. Thank you Grace.

Hubby @bigbaldtone arranged for me to double up with him today shooting with Grace and what a lovely lady she is.

Most of Comms were carried out by hubby so I rocked up today with camera and outfits

Grace was a pleasure to work with and was happy for me to style her today.

The corsets were well received and Grace flowed well from pose to pose with little to no instruction unless when being asked to retain a pose so I could change the angle of my image.

Absolute pleasure to work with

Highly recommended

I worked with Grace for the first time at the recent Creativity Hub weekend event.

Her massive smile and bubbly personality are the first things you notice about this charming lady.

Additionally, she is a fab model and I wished I'd had more time to work with her.

Highly recommended.

Thanks Grace.

I worked with Grace for the first time at the recent Creativity Hub weekend event. I'm so pleased with the shots we were able to get together! She was posed in a unique set and totally made it her own. Her posing was perfect and she was wonderfully expressive.

I loved working with Grace and definitely would again. Highly recommended!

Wow, what an amazing model. We had an incredible shoot together shooting a mix of lingerie and fashion at the loft.

Grace is awesome to work with. Great posing, brilliant styling and makeup. Really appreciate her contribution to the ideas on the day building on my original ideas to make something incredible.

Would be brilliant to work with Grace again.

First time working with Grace and certainly won't be my last.

Fantastic comms, great choice of outfits etc, superb look and makeup and so down to earth, friendly and chatty.

We rattled through various sets during the shoot and were generally chewing the fat and getting on like we had known each other for years.

Fabulous model and we've already spoken about the next shoot what we can go for next...

Totally and utterly recommended by me

I was shooting a duo shoot at the Loft studio, this was arranged a few months ago and one of the models wasn't able to turn up on the day so Grace filled in at the last minute - I for one was not dissapointed.

Grace is a stunning model, very professional and easy to work with and she and the Ayla (the organiser of the shoot) got on really well and co-ordinated their poses effortlessly. Brilliant shoot and I would love to work with either of them separately or together anytime.

In Search of That Perfect Shot..............

Grace stepped in on Ayla's workshop at very short notice and was brilliant!! I am so pleased to have met and shot with her and hopefully it won't be the last. We got some great results from a very fun but productive afternoon. Thank you Grace, best wishes Jann :-)x
